Guthrie, o. T., April 1s.-Joseph ". Nc
Neal. president of the Guthrie National
bank, returned this morning from Wash
ington, where he has been with the Ok
lahoma delegation, participating in the
gOvernOrship contest Mr.. 8IcNeal was
an active candidate for the position Of
governorship of Oklahoma and vas pres
ent at the time the selection Of William
NJ. Jenkins was made
Mr.. McNeal was asked this afternoon
by a correspondent for the Eagle some
questions regarding the appointment Of
Mr.. jenkins. 1.-The appointment or Sc
lection Of Mr. jenkins was surely the
wish Of President Mckinley. We were all
in consultation With him and a number
Of questions came up. about matters in
Oklahoma The president was well in
formed about the condition OF affairs
here, but listened to the talk. He asked
Us frankly If Mr.. jenkins would be agree
able to us as his selection for governor.
We all agreed to that ard then it was
made out in VIZ g and we signed it.
This part looked little strange and it
looked like We could not get away from
it.
Il do not believe the matter Of endorse
ments cut any figure in the matter. There
were hundreds of endorsements for Gov
ernor Barnes in the secretary's Office ard
I 90 not suppose that they were looked
at. In the matter of endorsements the
signature Of a negro drayman is just as
good as that Of a chief justice, for it
only represents one name
q believe there were fraudulent en-
dorsements IN Washington. 1 have not
made any reference to any particular
case, but believe that there was fraud,
just the same. I DO mt know whether
the men would have signed the endorse
ment or not. that is another proposition.
Il do not believe the matter of endorse
ments cut any figure in the selection of
the governor of Oklahoma
"The selection of McNeal would have
been a too complete throw-down of
Barnes, while the selection of jenkins
too. Mr.. Jenkins is a friend Of the presi-
dent"
WAS Mr.. Crimes a candidate for the
position territorial secretary"
Eyes, sir; he was. do not know what
his endorsements were, but there is no
doubt he was a candidate all right"
Whom do you think will be the man
selected"
L think that F. f. Mckinley viii be
the man who viii III the position as sec
rotary of the territory. I derive this
opinion from the manner IN which the
governor was selected and because Of the
fact that he is a relative of the presi-
dent think that he viii be the man
selected for the territorial secret aryship."

FARM HAND DISAPPEARS
Went to Town and Horse Came Home
Rfderlesa

Oklahoma City, o. T., April 1s.-The ok
lahoman says: a farm hand. Vim. De-
pew. disappeared in this city last Satur-
day and a dnigent search fails to reveal
anything as to his whereabouts. There
is a mystery about the matter which
needs the attention OF the police.
Depew works for a farmer named Thos.
Ladd, who resides near the Milton saw
bill, twelve miles southwest of this city.
In company with Ladd, he came to town
Friday on horseback. During the day
Depew bucked the tiger and lost what lit
tie money he had. He called upon his
employer for more money in the after
noon and was given about so which he
also lost. He was seen drinking some in
the afternoon, but was not in & condition
which rendered him unable to take care
Of himself
aIing TO find him IN the evening. Mr..
Ladd returned to his home alone. The
next morning Saturday-Depew's horse
come to Ladd's home Fiderless. The sad
die and bride were on It, indicating that
Depew had started from town, but where
he went and where he Is at present is a
matter which no one is able to compre-
bend. His mysterious disappearance give
rise to the apprehension that he has been
foully dealt with.

Anxious
To Work

Born-tired people don't be-
long to the Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla family. A ton of Sarsa-
pariIIa would not affect them
in the slightest. But for
honest-tired, overworked,
exhausted people it is the
greatest medicine ever made.
Ayers SarsapariIIa makes
honest-tired people anxious
TO be active. They find it
harder to remain quiet than
tolabor. They become strong,
steady, courageous.
Did you ever notice how
distinct these two classes Of
people are-the born-tired
and the honest-tired?

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects Of the vel known remedy
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFoRsIA FIG SYRUP Co, illustrate
the value Of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them IN the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable 70 the systeun. It
IS the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities Of tbs
remedy are obtained from SIENNA ane
other aromatic plants, BY a method
known to the CALLFOBEIA EIG SYRUP
