DICK ADAMS
Special Inspector Examining
Dealing With DeIawares.

Dick Adams work with the Della
wares is being investigated, James o.
Fallen, special Indian inspector, is
at Dewey examining the charges made
against him in connection with the
Delaware land leases.
Adams, with his attorney, George
A. Murphy, has gone to Dewey, and it
is probable that the investigation will
be disposed Of speedily.
The charges against Adams are that
he secured leases and promisory notes
from the individual Delawares in
compensation for his influence at
Washington during the time the Del
aware claims were up for considera-
tion. The notes, it is alleged, were
generally for s75, to become due after
oil OF gas had been developed upon
the leased lands.
The Delawares, at least some OF
them, claim that Adams transferred
the notes as negotiable paper, and that
they have been compelled to pay
them before due.
Adams says there is nothing at all
in the charges; that every note he re-
ceiyed was in lieu Of money loaned to
the Indians. His attorneys also claim
the charges are false, and say they
have nothing to fear for their client
from the Investigation.

lhe iaIlo1ine special telegram appeared in lhe Tucson Star and ihe Phoenix Republican oi Mon. day
 Sc. Louis. Sept ls--(Speciall -- The Globe Democrat this morning published 4 3,U0O word interview with Judge William II. Barnes of Arizona. who comes out for Roose- welt and gives his reasons therefor. Judge Barnes Is life long demo- crat, was appointed by President Cleveland a member of the Arizona supreme court and is now general counsel for the Greene Consolidat- ed Copper Company. The chief reason he gives for making the political change is that he believes the policies of the republican party are better for the country than the programme of the democratic party which really promises nothing beneficial.
 The republican party, he says, Is party of action and accomplish ment. The United States had grown great under it's administra- tion and Judge Barnes says that if any of the policies by which it has attained greatness had not been carried out its growth and pros perity would have been retarded. He believes that further prosperity depends upon the retention of the republican party in power.
 Speaking of 'safe and sane" de- mocracy, Judge Barnes says that while it is an improvement upon Brvanism and populism, it offers to the country no reason why there should be a change of administra- ton. There is nothing in the St. Louis platform, nothing in the speech of acceptance of Judge Par ker to attract the independent voter, the businessman, the laborer or any other class of voters.
 Judge Barnes pays q glowing tribute to President Roosevelt and especially comments him for his stand in the matter of reclamation of the arid lands.
 Judge Barnes is one of the ablest and most capable men in Arizona, and his acquisition to the republi- can party means a great deal to republicanism in the territory.
The oasis., 1904-09-24

Resolved, that the qualifications of voters at said elections, conven- tions or mass meetings in addition to those already prescribed by law shall be as follows:
 The said voter is q Republican and that he intends to vote for and support the regular territorial and county Republican ticket at the next general election to be held in November, 1904.

One of our Missouri democratic
exchanges las, week in referring
to the various Doodle bills before
the last Legislature tells of the Jim
Crow bill as n introduced to try
and bleed the railroads, but was
voted down, Perhaps our demo-
cratic nominee for representative,
"Jim Grow" Drunert, has also vis-
ions Of Doodle In his mind, and
seeks to go there with this In view.
But the New Florence Leader says
Drunert is a candidate for probate
judge, SO perhaps he intends to
withdraw from the Legislative race.

II Is believed that Missouri takes
rank this year as the first straw
berry state Of the Union. The
strawberry district II composed Of
Barry, Mcdonald, Jasper, Law
renee, Newton, Greene and Chris
tian counties. The shipments
from Ncosho, one Of the principal
shipping points, have run as high
M ten cars per day. The heavy
rains both helped and hurt the
strawberry producers. They
helped them by making the crop
more aboundant, but they hurt
them by making II hard to harvest
and market. On the whole, the
year will probably be the most
prosperous In the history OF straw
berry culture In this state. Many
strawberry growers expect to clear
n profit Of $500 per acre, and there
are some, In the counties mem
toned, that have patches" cover
ing ms much as 100 acres.

The Rev. Samuel =. Montgom-
cry, pastor OF the Jefferson United
Presbyterian church at Gill Hall,
a Pittsburg. Pa, suburb, Is held
under $500 bail on IA charge Of
assault and battery, preferred by
Elder Edmond p. Heath, of his
congregation, who Is also a leader
of the church choir. A battle OF
fists, a whirlwind affair, occurred
after services last Sunday a week
ago In the church, In full view OF
the congregation. The minister
knocked Heath down twice. the
last time rendering him scnselcss
with a blow on the tempcl. He
knocked him back of the organ,
and he was unconscious five
minutes. Elder Heath had called
the minister n liar. aud the latter
swung for the elders jaw, but fell
short. Mrs. Heath, mother of the
elder intcrfcred, but she was
thrown over the pulpit steps by the
angry minister, who then was
met with a stiff right handler from
Elder Heath. The minister swung
hard with his right, catching Heath
in the mouth, knocking out four
teeth and sending him to the
church floor. Heath was soon up
and clinchcd with the pastor, who
managed to break away, and AS
the elder rushed past him. he
side stepped, swung his right, and
caught Elder Heath full on the
temple, Telling him like a log

The democratic machine last
week had full and unlimited con-
troll OF the Democratic state con-
vention at Joplin, and secured an
easy control over the Folk element,
which had to take a back seat and
were treated with little or no con-
sideration. This shows about how
much control Folk and his follow
ers will very likely have In theiI
state convention when It comes to
securing any favors. Two demo-
cratic state conventions have al
ready been captured by the ma.
chine element, and 1t 10 highly
probable that the old ring will
take possession Of the nominating
convention also. The machin,

vention.

The Platforms Suffrage Plank.

Eve favor such congressional
action as shall determine whether,
by special determinations, the
elective franchise in any state has
been unconstitutionally limited,
and, IL such Is the case, we demand
that representation in congress
shall be proportionately reduced,
as directed by the constitution Of
the United States" Some demo-
Gratis say that this plank Of the
Chicago platform OF 1904 will hit
the republican party in the south.
No democrat, however, Is saying
that the declaration Is unjust.
No democrat, either In the south
OF any where else, will be able TO
frame any valid argument against
II.
Several southern states have
limited the suffrage In an uncon-
st%itutional way. They ought,
therefore, to suffer the penalty
prescribed by the fourteenth
amendment for such action. The
republican platform trainers have,
In the expression just quoted,
voiced the feeling of n large
majority OF the republican party.
Hall a dozen states have assailcd
that part Of the constitution and
should be made to meet the con-
sequences of their transgrcssion.
Congress is empowered to infict
the punishment. OF course, con-
gress car not act on this or any
other question until after the
election. IL will not meet until
month after the voting takes
place. Roosevclt's reelection
will be an old story by the time
that congress comes together in
December, 1901.
But the offcnse will continue
unless the offenders arc punished.
The half a dozen states which have
suspended the fourteenth amend
mcnt to the constitution are EXERT
Ing an unjust influence in congress.
They have a weight In the
electoral college grotcsquely out
OF proportion to that due them
under the law. This injustice will
operate In all the divisions In
congress on all issues and In
every presidential campaign. The
probabilities is that the republicans
will carry the election In 1908 as In
1901, but II this injustice was
abolished the republican majority
In the electoral college would be
greater In that year, as In this.
The suffrage question in the south
is a matter to which congress, at
the earliest practicable moment,
should give its earnest attention.
