THE JEFFERSON CLUB.
lshawnee Herald.l

(Shawnee Herald)
We can not avoid the opportunity
presented to say something Of the
Jefferson club of Oklahoma.
Perhaps no organization ever es-
tablished in this territory has had
SO much free advertising and has
been so little understood as this same
jefferson club
OF its one hundred charter members
probably fifty of them initiated the
inimtable Kansas statesman, Jerry
Simpson, and had no socks at ALL the
other fifty wore nothing better than
cotton and yet the club was immedi-
ately denounced for being silk-stoclS-
ing affair.
The Republican press saw in such
a denunciation an opportunity to
strike at their ancient enemy, the
straight out democracy of the terri
tory, a body blow They have never
hesitated since TO keep that term
going They have been aided in their
vituperative work by such intermit-
ent Democrats as fsenberg, Hensley
and the reform CD editor of the Peo-
pies Voice at Norman, and an oceas-
ional Knock from such stalwarts as
Apperson
Just the same the Jefferson club
has already done gallant work for
the Democracy Of Oklahoma. It has
eliminated fusion and relegated to the
rear such bainacles as Sidney Clark,
u. Y Callahan and their ilk. II has
given the real Democrats of Oklaho-
ma a chunk of backbone around which
hey can congregate and kick; it has
given TO such splendid populists as
d. II. Redwine. Mrs. w. II. French
and Artemus Daniels the nucleus of

rAE oENrLEMAN RON INDIANA.

THE GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA.
Booth Harrington is nursing politi-
cal aspirations which. If successful,
will eventually land him upon the
floors Of congress. where he win be
designated by the title Of his popular
book. as the gentleman from lndi-
ana"
Mr. Harrington has recently decid-
ed to become candidate for the state
legislature from Marion county, and
such is the popularity of the hoosier
author among his own people that he
will no doubt succeed in the election.
But the intimate friends Of Mr. Tark-
lngton say that the state legislature
Is by nc means the goal Of his pollti
cal aspirations. and that he will simply
make the state Legislature the arena
ia which he viii train for COMPRESSION.
al honors later on.
Our esteemed contemporary. the
New York Sun, argues that Mr. Tarlt
ineton's ambition is certainly in order
considering the fact that the manu-
facture of novels has lately become
one Of the most popular employments
of the present day and, furthermore,
in view Of the large financial returns
which Mr. Harrington is supposed to
have derived from the sale of his
books. The Sun is unable to discover
any reason why the distinguished au-
thor should not succeed in his race;
especially since it requires no little
hardihood for any one to oppose an
aspirant who has 1t in his power, in
the event of failure, to retaliate upon
his opponent with his pen and make
him odious to the world OF readers.
Much interest will be felt by the
public at large in the political aspira-
tions Of Mr. Harrington, and If he
really desires to go to congress he
will have the best wishes Of many ar
dent admirers.

A NEEDED RELIEF

Governor Crane of Massachusetts,,

duties of the Office that he would not
hold himself in readiness TO respond
to invitations to participate in private
or social occasions Now the mayor
elect of Boston has given similar no
tice. This innovation may be extend
