Judge Scott, as he is familiarly known
throughout Kansas and Oklahoma, start
ed on a brilliant career when he was ad-
mitted to the bar at Lyons, Kans., when
only IS years old. He married Miss Anna
Fuller at Jerome, Kans., sixteen years
ago. when he was running q newspaper
there. Later, in 1883. President Cleveland
appointed him register Of the land Office
at Larned, Kans. He was not Of age

had 10 wait ninety days to qualify. In
the fall OF 1889 he was defeated for dis
trict judge by eight votes and next year
was offered the nomination for congress

had to decline because he was not old
enough. In 1893 President Cleveland ap-
pointed him q federal judge in Oklahoma
While on the bench he had a bitter fight
with the Republicans Of the district and
sent three OF them TO jail for contempt.

ACCIDENT
MAY HAVE
BEEN MURDER
Arrest at Norman Leads TO
Strong Suspicion,
GRAVE CHARGE is MADE
Against an Uncle of a Young
Orphan Girl.

Guthrie, o. T.. April 1s.-A remarkable
story is told by the, Norman Transcript
is the story of the arrest Of man for
incest, with the possible unraveling Of
previous crime. However in such cases
presumption is not safe, and as in this
instance, public opinion should be sus-
pended until the jury determines facts.
The transcripts story IS as follows:
Logan Pickett was arrested Tuesday
on complaint of Fate Eskew, charged
with incest, in having Illicit intercourse
with Miss Ellen Eskew. who is a sister
Of the complaining witness and niece Of
Pickett. The Illicit intercourse has been
going on for some years. according to the
statement of Miss Eskew, and she is now
in a delicate condition.
1t viii be remembered that AIr Frank
Eskew, father Of Miss Eskew, was acct
dentally killed in July, 1899 He and Lo-
gan Pickett were out walking, Pickett
carrying a gun Eskew got over q fence
and Pickett was following him, when
the gun was discharged, the shot taking
effect in Mr.. Eskew's back. killing him
almost instantly Pickett was exonerated
at the inquest upon his own statement as
&c how the occident occurred, as it was
shown that he and Eskew were good
friends. Is now understood that the il
hcit relations between Miss Eskew and
Puckett had been going on before her
fathers death.
PuckeJC waived examination and his
case win be submitted to the grand
jury next week.
The parties live about Eve miles east of
Norman, on the Eskew farm. Miss FL
lens parents are both dead. She. is
about Is years OF age, and says the Illicit
connection between her and her uncle
commenced in August, 1885, Pickett is a
man of 3 years. The sympathies Of the
community IN which they live are with
the girl, and many believe Pickett was
guilty OF killing Eskew Intentionally to
cover up his relations with Miss Eskew.

1T HAS POLITICAL SIDE.
How Lottery Plan May Help the Re.
publicans.

TOW EOlLeFy ran way rSIp Ine ne
pubIicans.
Guthrie. O. T., April ia dispatch
from \, ashington, says:
OkIahoma's political future depends
upon the system adopted by the interior
department for the disposition Of the
Comanche country. soon to be opened.
If the old plan of making the run Is car
ried out, statehood VIII be delayed; if
the lottery plan is ADOPTED statehood will
come soon. The question of the admis-
sion of Oklahoma 70 statehood involves
a big political question. The Republicans
are DESTROYS Of bringing the territory into
the Union, providing it is Republican,
but not anxious to bring a Democratic
territory into the Union to add a couple
of Democratic senators to the present
list. The Democrats, of course, are not
anxious TO see Oklahoma admitted until
it comes in as q Democratic state. The
territory is almost equally divided at the
present time politically. Neither party
mas a very wide margin. The voting
strength OF the new Klowa Comanche
country could turn the tide either way
The fight is for political supremacy in
the new territory, and the Republicans
hold the whip hand.
Should the old system Of making the
run be adopted. the Democrats will have
the advantage. more of the new country
borders the Democratic country on the
south than it does the Republican coun-
try on the north. In other words. on
account Of the peculiar shape of the new
country the reservation line is the longer
on the south. This would give the Texas
Democrats the advantage, and if a run
is made they viii capture practically all
of the land in the country. OF course
there would be nothing to prevent a nor
therner from going around on the south
side and making a run along with the
Texans, but it wouldn't do him much
good if ne did that, even if he got a
claim. The Texans would swear him
out Of it. Kansas had the advantage in
the Strip opening, because so much of
the strip pordered on Kansas, and the
Kansans worked the swearing racket
very successfully. A Texan or other
southerner. singie-handed and alone
stood no show with them in a swearing
match in a contest case.
With big game at stake, the Republi-
cans do not care to play into the hands
Of the Democrats by adopting system
that will enable Texas Democrats to COB
bic the new lands and control the politics
OF the entire Oklahoma territory. For
this reason the lottery plan viii probably
be adopted. The Republicans believe
that this win give protection because
most or the genuine homeseekers will
come from the northern and eastern
states and viii be Republicans as a rule.
Great emphasis is laid on the Importance
of the adoption of the lottery plan by
the Oklahoma Republican leaders especi-
ally. They want statehood early and
want it right-that is, accompanied by
Republican rule. The lottery plan, they
say. viii make Oklahoma strongly Re
publican. The race plan viii make it
Democratic. and thus delay the adrnis-
sionof the territory into the Union. The
administration sees the force Of the ar
gument and viii probably govern its &C
tons in the matter accordingly.

Following the order issued Friday
making Judge Taft civil governor of
the Philippines, an order has been is
sued naming General Chaffee as the
military governor of the archipelago.
The military has been ordered to va
cate the Ayuntamiento, the large pub
lie building which was erected ont of
the municipal funds Of Manila for
government purposes. This will be
occupied by the civil officers in the
Philippines. The palace Of Mala-
cayan, heretofore occupied as head
llartes for General Otis and MacAr-
thur, also has been ordered vacated
by the military authorities and will
be occupied by Governor Taft. Mala-
cayan was the headquarters of the
Spanish general when in COM
mand in the Philippines and the ma
tives of the island Ehave come to re-
gard it as the headquarters or seat of
government. The Estade Mayo. an
other large public building, is to be
the military headquarters and will be

MANILA CHANGES
An Election Must Be Held in
Cuba and Constitution Rati'
fied-.Uuited States Leads.

Washington, D. C.-The United
States leads every nation except Great
Britain in Chinese trade, according to
complete report for the last year,
Just received by the state department
from Consul General Goodnow at
Shanghai.
These figures have been reached
and verified in spite Of the fact that
not all the goods imported into China
from the United States are credited
to this country. For example, Ameri-
can goods shipped to China by the
Canadian Pacific are credited to Bri.
fish America in the Chinese costumes
figures. But even so the American
imports into China last year footed
up $l2, 500, 600 and Mr.. Goodnow says
chat these figures are about So, 900, 900
too low. The $12, 5OO,O however,
puts America second in the Chinese
markets.
Mr.. Goodnow further says it is his
opinion that, in spite Of the disturb
ances and general depression Of trade
in China last year, the empire actual
ly bought more American goods dur
ing 1900 than in the previous year.
He also reports that the United States
bought from China last year $l1, 900, =
900 worth of goods, which was more
than the purchase of any other ma
ton. Mr.. Goodnow concludes:
According to the above figures the
United States buys more goods from
China than does any other nation,
aud her total trade with China, i'm
port and export, equal that Of Great
Britain, not including her colonies,
and is far ahead of that Of any other
country.
Ii WAS ndGI6E VI COLuiuoA hAoW
ledge year ago that the trade Of the
United States was increasing faster
than that of any other country; but |
am satisfied that at the present time
German trade is increasing faster pro-
porrionately (not absolutely than
ours. The reasons for this are patent
TO the ordinary observer. Germany
Is sending out her own citizens to
handle her goods; the Germans here
work intensely and have long busi-
ness hours, devoting little or no time
TO relaxation and amusement that can
be utilized in business way. They
help and trade with one another.
Germany furnishes anything and ev-
erything, SO far as she can manufac-
ture or buy it, that the trade demands
and supplies goods in the way re-
uuired,"
