GREEN GOODS IN cueA.

Some of our Cuban neighbors are
sading out bitter complaints that
the wonderful Americans in whom
they put their trust and in whose
business ventures they have the Ut
most confidence are swindling them
out of their eye teeth; and they want
the government of the United States
to get back their money for them and
then to punish the roguea with the
limit of the law. There might be Ger.
tain elements of reason in these com
plants and demands but for the pc
culiar character of the swlndie from
which they have suffered This is the
ancient fraud known as "the green
goods game" which game. II seems
has been played on the Cubans with
marked success. Now, to stop this
little game ald to punish those en-
gagged in it, Is a maiter OF such ex-
ceeding difficulty that our officials
are rarely able TO do much hero at
home. and to meet the deman Is of the
Cubans Is manifostly impossible The
difficulty resides in the fact that the
victim voluntarily takes a hand in the
fraud. He is swindled in an attempt
to awindle others, and ne can not ask
for the punishment Of his pals with
out calling down the same penalty on
his own head. II is possible to pro
tect the foolish from the consequences
OF their own folly, and it is possible 20

FLYNN AND STATEHOOD.

The Chickasha Telegram jumps on
the El Reno American with all four
feet because of the latters little and
narrow position on the statehood

Well, Mr. Telegram, what did you

patron saint of Oklahoma Republican
politics.

To the Editor Of the Register.
Sir:---Messrs. McGregor, Gutman,
and their Republican associates in the
Board of Commissioners have lately
become much worried over National
road affairs, and all this because the
Legislature abolished the collection Of
tolls in this county. The action of
the Legislature throws some Republi-
can workers out of a job, and requires
retrenchment in other directions, to
the tune of some Sc, 000---"that's the
rub" These gentlemen now propose
to test the right OF the State to abol-
ish Al tolls. IL the State Legislature
has not the power to abolish the tolls
on that National highway, will these
genulemen--EAessrs. McGregor, Gut
man, ct al, tell the public where and
when did they get the power and au-
thority to give it over to a private cor
poration from the city limits to the
Pennsylvania line?
