Horrible Wounds Found Upon a
Ranchman and His Wife. @

MISSOULA, MONT.-Ira PRESLEY and
his wife, whose home is on a ranch near.
Superior, are at Parsons hospital in this
city, both near death and unable to tell
who wounded them. Pressley's throat Is
cut from ear to ear, and the woman is
unconscious from a blow on the head that
caused a confusion of the skull -,
The man is conscious and says he was
in bed when his throat was cut. but that
he does not know who did the cutting.
James Murray was the first to discover
the condition Of the Pressleys: He went
to the PRESLEY ranch and found the house
locked. While there, he says, Presley
came out the back door and walked around
to where he was. Seeing there: was some
thing wrong with the man, Murray asked
him what he had been doing, and Presley
answered by pointing to his throat, which
Murray then saw was cut from ear to ear
Murray at once started for assistance, and
when help arrived the woman was discov-
cred lying on the bed unconscious On
the floor was a bloodstained razor that
had undoubtedly been used in cutting

WILD MAN CAUGHT
He Is Negro and Is Thought to Be
Insane. Es-E ,ss

CALUMET, MICH.-The wild man who
has been terrorizing the Finnish fishermen
on the shore of Lake Superior west of here
has been captured. He appeared at the
Phoenix mine location. about fifteen miles
north. where he was detained and brought
to this city at late hour last night.
For several weeks the Finnish fishermen
along the west shore Of KeweenaW point
encountered the man, and twice the lives
Of lone fishermen We're attempted. The
fellow secured at the Phoenix is evidently
the wild man the fishermen saw in the
woods as he tallies closely with the de-
scription they gave. He Is q negro and
evidently insane. He Is understood with
some difficulty and so far it has been i'm
possible to learn anything from him con-
corning his identity.
When secured he was in rags, and
scarcely a strip of his apparel was three
inches long. He was apparently harmless.
He carried a small bag containing some
articles of clothing and decaying meat and
bones Of animals. He has suffered from
exposure and his entire body is covered
with a growth of hair. He was fed, and
ate In a ravenous manner.
II is not known where the man came
from, but it is the common supposition
that he reached shore from passing boat.
He will be cared for by the county off,

Rightly used, kindly treated, given
the same good care as a horse, the mule
has always shown himself kind, good
tempered, willing, docile and intelligent.
Moreover, while he has none of the
horses graceful, sympathetic ways OF
showing affection and responding to
appreciation, the mule is capable Of
genuine devotion to a kind master
Both the horse and the ass have af-
fectionate dispositions, and the only
reason the mule does not evince such
is because nothing calls it out Jack
is not demonstrative, but he does re-
spond visibly TO kind treatment.
He makes, moreover, an easy paced.
careful, kindly riding animal when well
treated. Taken altogether, he is use
full, intelligent, much enduring, little
appreciated brute, whose melancholy
position is that OF a dog with bad
name-his good 'uol.'os rarely men
toned, while his bad oNeS are credited
at their full value.

tigation, why are they talking about
the "unpreparedness Of the Indian Ter
ritory for statehood"
As matter OF fact, the Indian Ter.
ritory Is equally prepared for state
hood today with Oklahoma Measured
by any standard. Il has all the requi.
sites. That it's people are capable Of
self government is abundantly attest.
ed by the absence Of outlawry and dis
order with practically no government.
The talk to the effect that treaty
obligations prevent the government
from admitting It along with Okla.
homa Is the sheerest nonsense. The
government has the power to admit
II all or any part of Il at any time II
sees ft. The supreme court has so
held and there is no higher law than
that laid down by that tribunal
The "unpreparedness of the Indian
Territory" is a fiction of the republi-
can campaign committee. It was in.
vented for the sole purpose Of per
petuating their lease of life at the
public udder. In truth and i'm fact the
Indian Territory is as well prepared
for statehood as Oklahoma and as
justly entitled TO it.-Oklahoman.

upon the unpreparedness Of the In

apologies for Flynns two-state meas
ure now pending in the senate. They
are even going out Of their way TO
belittle the matchless resources OF our

character OF It's citizenship The gen
eral tenor Of the clamor gives the inn
preston that the Indian Territory.

that the campaign has opened and the
Official head of hungry horde of pap
suckers is poised in the balance this
outrageous picture is paraded before

which they have been put to elect a

himself to be in favor Of single state

that the only kind of statehood Okla

In the light Of their clamor we are
constrained TO ask do Republican ora
tors and Republican editors know any
thing about the Indian Territory and
it's people? Have they ever seen a
census bulletin or a commercial re
port? Do they know that the popula.
tion OF the Indian Territory exceeded
the population OF Oklahoma in 1890

probability the board will employ Joe
Matthews. who has been teaching in
the public schools for several terms.
The people in the extreme west part
OF town have been petitioning for
school in their district and it may be
that the Seventh Day Advent church
will be leased and a teacher sta
toned there to teach the little folk of
