Hon. A. G. Cleveland.

The nomina tion of Hon A. G. Cleve-
land for Governor by the Republicans
of Nevada makes certain that about
the hottest guberuatorial fight in the
United States will this year be in the
Battle Born State. Mr.. Cleveland
has been a resident of Nevada for
just forty years. He helped lay the
foundations of the State. From the
beginning he has been one Of the fore
most citizens, in every capacity, of
the State He was for severa. terms
member of the Legislature there;
was once before candidate for Gov
ernor, but was beaten through the
churning of political parties because
of silver He is farmer and stock
raiser, like his opponent; his farm is
about the most valuable one in the
State; his stock is so fine that people
who visit the place come away de-
claring that there is not an animal
on the farm that is not thorough
bred Mr.. Cleveland is one of the
bravest, truest and most genial, but
at the same time clear-headed men
in the west He knows all the peo-
pie of the State and their wants, -

Perhaps.

There seems to be another great
battle of railroad giants to begin, in
which the Goulds, with Rockefeller,
Senator Clark, Russell Sage, and
other leading fnanciers are allied on
the one hand, and a combination of
the Vanderbilts, J. Pierpont Morgan,
Cramps shipbuilding company and
the Postal Telegraph company is on
the other side. 1t seems also that
the United States Steel corporation
is divided within itself as to which
side of the impending contest it will
espouse Perhaps in this battle,
which is about to be waged, the
greatest trust of the country may be-
come so involved that its managers
will quarrel and the corporation be
dissolved

If anything were necessary to es-
tablish the fact that the Southern
Pacific will eventually have to build
a branch line into Tonopah, it would
be established by the sixteen cars Of
lumber held at Mound House, the
thirty cars of general freight at
Hawthorne aud the train loads of
stuff awaiting transportation at So

Moore, a negro, fof leasing the

OF the case are as follows:
Will Moore, a negro citizen Of

rent on il. Some time after that
he leased to John Jordan, agent

the Indian Land aud Trust com.

Is Amended to Provide for
Final Addition of Indian
Territory.
MUCH CON ENTION
On the Question Of the Form Of
Government Tor the Terri.
tory, Pending Its Ab.
sorbtion by Okla.
bona.

AZ anticipated by those who
have been watching the devious
course Of territory legislation at
Washington, the bill to be report.
ed by the house committee on terri.
tories providing for the admission
OF Oklahoma 10 statehood will con.
tain a provision for the fnal addi.
tiou Of the Indian territory. The
subcommittee charged with the
duty Of revising the bill and pre-.
pairing a report, has been in con.
sultation upon the measure, and
several amendments, agreed upon
by the committee, will be reported.
The original bill, as presented
by Mr.. Flynn, delegate from Ok.
lahoma, contained a clause giving
congress power to annex the In.
dian territory to the new state at
such time as the lands Of the In.
dians are subject to taxation and
had ia fee. This clause was the
subject Of considerable discussion, =,
and it was suggested ,as an amend. q.
ment, that before the Indian terri.
tory could be united with Okla
homa 1t would be necessary to
have the proposition ratified by a
vote Of the inhabitants OF the ter
ritory. This proposed amend.
ment has been rejected, however,
and the bill to be reported will
leave the annexation proposition
with congress.
BY another change in the bill,
0klahoms, il admitted, will be en-
titled to two representatives in
congress- instead of three, as pro.
vided in the original bill
As soon as the full committee
reports the three territorial bills
to the house il will take up the
question Of government for the
Indian territory. % this point
there is much contention and the
widest divergence of opinion,
Some OF the members are urging
the adoption Of the Scott bill, pro.
viding for a system Of appointive
officers, who shall be paid by fees.
The strong argument in support
OF this measure is that the resi-.
dents Of the territory, without tax.
able lands are not able to bear the
tax burdens consequent upon the
support OF a full territorial from of
government. The democratic
members OF the committee are op.
posing the measure and urging
against the point that IL places too
much federal patronage in the ter
ritory. The democrats will urge
the adoption OF the Moon bill,
which provides for a regular ter
ritorial form Of government. II ia
possible now that the Moou bill
may be accepted, with some ofthe
provisions Of the Scott bill added.
A report on the Indian territory
bill is expected within two weeks.

An Explanation.

Owing to circular sent out by the
Frisco Milling Co. Of this city with
reference to the disposition OF the
car Of coSn purchased for the full
bloods this explanation is made nee
essaTy. The car OF corn ordered was
for Fix hundred bushels, but when re-
eel we'd contained more than 900
bushels. The relief committee had
not money enough TO pay for the
whole amount and let the Milling Co.
have the oyerplus they paying the
cash, The coru purchased for the
fullbloods Is still In the hands OF the
committee save that which has al
ready bsen distributed to the Indians.
The committee will see that IL reaches
It's proper destination aud no one
need have any fear that money or
clothing or supplies OF any character
will be mlsjapplled.
