The Commoner.

The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan'sI
paper, will be especially inter
esting and instructive during the
present session of congress. The
action of this congress will prob
ably determine the issues upon
which the next presidetial cam
paign will be fought. The Com
moner proposes to carry on al
campaign of education and or
ganization to the end that demo-
cratic principles may triumph.
In addition TO the editorial de-
partment, which receives Mr..
Bryan's personal attention, The
Commoner contains a Current
Topic department, wherein a
non-partisan discussion of topics
of timely interest and other valu-
able information will be found.
The Home Department is con-
Quoted by a experienced woman
who is widely known as a wrher
of household topics and who is
an authority on the art of cook
ing in all that the term implies.
The department alone is worth
the subscription price. The 9TH
er departments of the paper are
all interesting and ably conduct
ed, among which is a summary
of the world news told in narra-
tive style, and Mr.. Maupin's de-
partment-Whether Common orr
Not-contains original anecdotes
and wit, moral lessons in homely
phrase and verse, and appeals to
old and young alike.
The Commoner as a whole is
clean, entertaining and instruc-
tive, and its rapid increase in
circulation-now amounting to
40,000-is proof of the papers
strength and influence.
Arrangements have been made
with Mr.. Bryan whereby The
Commoner can be supplied at a
very low rate with The Democrat,
both papers for one year for 81 go.
This offer applies to both new
and renewal subscriptions, and
should be taken advantage of
without delay. All orders should
be sent to the Democrat office,

Hon. W. J. Bryan's Visit to oklahoma.

In Lawton, Hobart, Anadarko
and the other towns which sprang
up a year ago last summer,
schools were at once established,
churches built and literary socie-
ties organized, and now the in
habitants enjoy all the advant-
ages'of advanced civilization ex-
cept self-government. The older
communities of Oklahoma and
the Indian territory are not sur
passed by communities of equal
population anywhere. 1t is n
grievous wrong that the rights of
the enterprising and progressive
people Of Oklahoma who have
converted "A wild prairie into a
vast garden dotted over with busy
marsk of trade--it is a grievous
wrong, repeat, that the rights
Of these people should be sacri-
feed TO the whims of republican
politicians. There is no doubt
about Oklahoma's fitness for
statehood and it surly ought to be
possible for the senators and
members to agree upon a plan
which leaves all disputed ques-
tons TO be settled by the people
of the territories. If Oklahoma
and the Indian territory are adj
mitted as one state it is only fair
that the question be decided at
once 50 that the people of the In
dian territory may have "A voice
in the framing of the constitution
and i'm the location of the capital
and state institutions. 1t is only
just, too, that in the opening of
Indian lands hereafter some pro-
vision should be made for a
school fund whether the Indian
territory comes in by itself or in
conjunction with Oklahoma

Bold Hold Up

Roy Gardner son of @. w.
Gardner was knocked down and
robbed last night at $50, close to
the corner of 9th and c. streets.
Gardner was walking along the
street and met IA negro who asked
him for a match, Gardner was
feeling in his pocket for a match,
when the negro struck him on the
head with some blunt instrument
knocking him senseless, he then
robbed him of his watch, pocket
knife and some small change.
Gardaer was found few min
utes later and taken into Dads
restaurant, where after some time
he regained conciousness and
told what had happened. There
is entirely too many idle negroes
loafng around town and the soon
er they are made TO go to work or
leave, the better off the city will
be, they have either got to work
for a living or steal, if something
is not done it will soon be dam
gerous for a citizen to walk the

unimpeachable record, and in gooc
faith supported Bryan in 1896 ant

A Carthage woman believes that
the chicken crop in her town will be
small this spring. A new railroad is
being built out Of Carthage, and a
large amount Of blasting is being done
on its right-of-way. This, according
to a Carthage woman's theory, shakes
the eggs and renders them incapable
Of being Matched. "a friend Of mine
In Kansas where they have been doing
blasting, " she tells the Press, writes
me that she did not raise a single
chicken while the blasting was going
on, and the effect Of the work here
could be felt for at least a mile Or two
around" Having explained this the
CRY, "now," says the Press, "let's heal
from the parties who have Matched
chickens in spite Of thunder and rail-
! roads"

Leach and Norman Smallwood, farm.
ers of this county, fought a pistoI
duel on the streets here to-day just be-
fore noon.
Leach was killed. Smallwood was
not hit.
The streets were crowded at the
time, the city election being on, and
Circuit Court being In session.
The wives and other members Of
their families witnessed it.
Smallwood was arrested and locked
In jail.
Leach secured a divorce from his
wife in the Circuit Court this morn
ing, the decree being granted just be-
fore the shooting.
Mrs. Leach was Smallwood's daugh-
ter.
The two men met In front of the
court house Immediately after the
decision of the court, and, after a few
words, both began firing.
Leach was struck five times. He
fell, but arose and ran half a square,
waving his pistol,
He again fell, and died in a few
minutes.
Leach's wife became ~hysterical, and
added her screams to the confusion.
1t is a great wonder that several
persons were not hurt, as the two men
were surrounded by crowds.

Head, of this city, was elected mayor
to-day on the Democratic ticket. Mr.
Head defeated two opponents, o. B

was: Head, 1876; Wilson, IA; W. Boat
man, 70.
Although a young man, Mr.. Heac
has filed a number Of other city Of

been defeated. When Mr.. Head first
became a candidate, only one oppo.
nent, o. B. Wilson, came out against
him.
Several weeks later w. Boatman
announced himself, and the contest
became interesting. Head, who is the
junior partner in a real estate firm,
then temporarily deserted bis desk to
manage his campaign.
When the result Of the election was
announced this evening, scores OF
Heads friends hurried to his resi-
dence to carry returns and to congrat-
ulate him. He succeeds Doctor W. A.
