LIVES lLOST I'M PRAIRIE FIRE
Wind and Fire Damage Thousands of
Dollars Worth of Property.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Three
persons perished in the recent prairie
fire and the financial loss by the fire
and the gale is estimated at half mil
lion dollars. The dead:
W. H. Meyer, near Walter, overcome
while fighting fire.
DR.. Harmon, near Lawton, burned
to death in his stable.
Unknown boy, near Lawton, body
found on prairie burned to crisp.
Further reports Of property loss by
both fire and wind indicate that the
first estimate was too low. The dam
age by wind extends over seven count
ties in the southwest. The tota loss
from fire and storm can as yet only be
estimated, but it is the general opion-
ino that they will reach $500, 900.
Scores of persons are suffering from
burns and broken limbs.
The area from which reports of
damage by wind comes covers hun
dred miles square, and means Of COM
muuication over the district are .mea-
gre. This difficlty is increased by the
fact that poles are burned and wires
blown down. The little town of Fran
els was destroyed by fire, but no par
ticulars are given.

WINNIPEG, Man, Sept. 3O.-Word
has just been received here from the
Dukhobor colonies near Saskatoon, n.

started on a march for the United
States. This time they are not looking
for Jesus, but are on the trek for a
warmer climate.
Only the bare fact has been re-
ceived mere as yet, but the affair is
causing much excitement, as it is
known to what extremes these people
will go to obtain their ends. 1t is fear
ed they are really in search Of a more
warm climate and have started on a
long pilgrimage-the longest they have
ever had. The Royal northwest mount

WAITS UNTIL LAST Moment
REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE
SUMMONED TO NAME NEW
ELECTOR OCTOBER 6.
Chairman Palmer Protects Himself
Against Attack by Delaying Call
for the Meeting.

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 30.-The re-
publican state committee will not meet
to nominate candidate for presiden-
tal elector in the place of j. NJ. Fish,
who resigned a snort time ago, until
October 6. A call for the meeting was
sent out two days ago by Chairman
Palmer of the state committee, though
news of the summons was suppressed
at state headquarters. The story
tricked back into town after commit
teemen had received their notices.
The date fixed for the meeting is the
latest that could be determined upon.
The nomina ton must be made and the
meeting could not be held later than
October :. The battleship Nebraska
is to be launched on that day, and the
committee meeting would not be a
highly successful affair in view of the
counter attraction. The decision to
meet a day earlier fixes the gathering
on the latest acceptable date.
me Tor protection.
Chairman Palmer is given by the
postponement Of the meeting more
than a weeks time in which to pro-
tect himself against the attacks that
he fears will be made upon his man
agement of the campaign. Ever since
Fish's resignation came into his hands
Palmer has been endeavoring to force
the members of the state committee to
pledge themselves not to disturb his
control of the state organization.
The repeated mistakes made by the
state chairman and his ignoring of
prominent committeeman and political
leaders has stirred up dissatisfaction
among the committeeman that has not
been allayed. Palmer has feared in
the past to call the state committee to-
gether and has even refused to hold a
which is of his own choosing. He mas
taken absolute charge of the commit
tee and has outlined a campaign upon
lines that are satisfactory to John l..
Wilson.
Opponents In Majority.
The antiPalmer faction in the state
committee is in a majority. This was
demonstrated at the Tacoma meet
ing when Palmer was elected chair
man. A sufficient number of commit
teemen were whipped into line by can
didates to insure Palmer's election,
feeling in any way. The men forced
by nome candidates to support Palm
er left the committee room as
thoroughly dissa tsfied with the new
state chairman as they We're when they
went into the meeting.
Palmer has had trouble with the
state committee from the start. He
failed to secure the consent of the
most prominent party workers on the
committee to serve with MIN on any
organization committees. County COM
mitteemen have handled local situa-
lions pretty much as they desired,
without any reference to the state or
ganizatiOn.
The meeting of the state organiza-
ton is to be held month before cleo
ton. At that time the necessity for
harmony in the committee will be so
be protected against radical action.
But some of the stronger members of
our committee are very apt to pass Sc
we're condemnation on his management
of affairs.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE WOULD
LIKE TO CALL OFF THE
PRESENT TOUR.
Boss Farrelrs Man Is Doing Himself
More Harm Than Good in
Campaign.
Campaign.

SPOKANE, Sept. 30.-Albert f.
Mead. the railway candidate for
governor. has been meeting with
anything but a warm reception in this
part Of the state. He has made many
speeches. but has failed to impress his
hearers, and it is claimed by many that
he has hurt his cause by visit
ing eastern Washington.
During the past week Mr.. Mead has
spoken at Wilbur, at Davenport, and
at Reardon IN Davenport and Wilbur
he had good sized audiences; at Rear
don he had only Il small crowd. In all
three places the audience was made up
of about one-third Mr. Mead's sup
porters and tWo-thirds men unaltera-
bly, opposed to him and the cause he
epresents-audience which listened
respectfully and in silence to what he
had to say, and departed more deter
mined than ever to vote for Judge
Turner and the railroad commission
ticket.
The efforts of Mr.. Mead's support
ers to create applause in his meetings
fail more times than they succeed, but
when Charles +. Lund. still undaunt-
ed in his belief in the righteousness of
the commission cause would mention
Governor McBrde's name there would
be a perfect WnirlWnd of applause.
Says Mead Hurt Himself.
After the Wilbur meeting the
Spokesman Review correspondent who
accompanied Mr. Mead. asked one of
the most prominent republicans of
Lincoln county-a man who is sup
porting Mr. Mead-What he thought
the effect of the gubernatorial candi
dates speech would be. The reply was
somewhat startling. He said
IF l had my way 1 would cancel
every date Mr.. Mead has in Lincoln
county. | would send him out of the
county. and send fellows like Rock
we'll in here to plead his cause for him.
He is sure to lose votes by trying to
defend the Tacoma convention, and
particularly by trying to pretend that
and crooked. He is not only hurting
himself but he is losing votes for our
county and Legislative ticket"
In all his speeches Mr.. Mead has
been seemingly unaware of the con-
tempt in which the farmers hold the
convention which nominated him. and
their adherence of the last Legislature.
Instead of ignoring those bodies, he
has blunderingly defended them in ev-
cry speech he has made.
Is a Railroad Apologist.
In all his speeches Mr.. Mead has
assumed the role of railroad apollo
gst. His denials of corruption in the
legislature have been sweeping; to
hear him talk one would almost
imagine that a railroad lobby mas never
infested the legislative halls or dictat-
ed conventions, that bribery and bull
doing have not been part of the legis-
lative history of Washington and that
members of the egislature-known to
all their colleagues and to every hang
er on around Olympia as bride takers
and grafters-were pure as the driven
snow.
And yet with all his apology and de-
Tense Mr.. Mead has tried to convey
the inference that he would be friendly

Mr.. Mead felt that it was up to him
to say something, and after his usual
promise to sign a commission bill, if
passed. he Waxe1 eloquent, and de-
clared that the people of eastern Wash

GERONIMO IN OLD AGE.
He Is No Longer Looked Upon as a

He Is No Longer Looked Upon as a
Chief by the Apaches. :.
Geronimo was at Lawton last week.
The health of the old chief is still
good, although he is very aged His
home is ten miles from Lawton, yet
he usually walks to and from the
place to do his trading.
He is quite often asked to give an
exhibition of his skill as a marks
man with the bow. This he readily
consents to do provided nickel is
made the target and it becomes his
own in case he hits it.
Geronimo denies the statement of
Gen. Miles that the general captured
him. The old warrior says that some
where up on the mountains, when he
was on the warpath, two white men
came to him and told him that Gen.
Miles wanted to see him.
The men accompanied him to the
camp of the general and he was made
a prisoner. Geronimo says he thinks
it was in Arizona, the territory of his
birth. Anyway, he says it was up in
the mountains.
The tribal relations of the Apaches
have been dissolved, and they no long
er look upon Geronimo as their chief.
They consider him a childish old man,
who is too senile to advise them
