ic creation, builded on optomistic and
cheerful views of the institutions of
modern times. 1t was in no respect
political address, only one or two
sentiments indicating the politics of
the Missouri citizen.
"The American people are the bus
lest in the world, and | believe that
right here in this new state is the
busiest of them ALL. "
Mr.. Clark told of the progress the
American people had made, the posi-
tion they had as a world power, of the
education of the people and its value,
the hopes and blessings given the free
American citizen, and predicted a
great future.
He referred to the territories by
saying he believed he had more con-
stituents in Oklahoma and Indian
Territory than he had in his own dis
trict.
"There are at least half a dozen
men here who have helped send me
to congres sthe first time | ran.
81 remember my first off-hand
speech in congress was about these
territories. A member from New Jer-
sey had talked about the territories
as being a great hill Of sand. "A men,
ber from Tennessee had said about
the same thing. Old Silver Dick Bland
was right across from me, and |
said, Il believe ri tell them about
| that country Bland advised me to
do it, saying, They're a pack of
gold bugs, anyhow
II told them something about the
great territories. | saw the beaming
face of Tom Reed, and | told them
about the time he was in Pike coun-
ty, Missouri, when he stuck his head
out the ear window and saw the rich
soil. told them that Reed eyclaim-
ed, 'Why, if they had this soil back
East, they would sell it by the peck,
for seed, it's so rich
II nave put Ill as much tlme III
the past twelve years as any living
man trying to get these two terri
tories into the Union"
Mr.. Clark spoke for more than an
hour, holding the audience splendidly,
considering the fact that the rain
poured through the canvas roof as
through a sieve. Despite the great
Inconvenience, il was splendid OPP
portunity to hear great man speak,
and an unusual crowd heard him.
The Democrats had planned to
make a gala occasion of his visit to
Tulsa, but were compelled to elimin-
ate all celebration, and the speaker
simply filed his contract with the
Chautauqua management.

TWO DEAD...O

FAMILY FEUD
WESTVILLE FAMILIES SETTLE
SCORE WITH WINCHESTERS
A TERRITORY TRAGEDY
The Feud Had Been Running for

and Pleas Hubbard are dead and
Reuben Kirby is fatally injured as
the result of a pitched battle near

members of the Kirby and Hubbard

McBRIEN NOT A MURDERER
The Aged Prisoner Did Not Shoot
Nicholas Carney.

South McAlester, |. T., July o.
Commissioner John W. Mcmillan,
who went to the scene of the alleged
Me-Brien-Carney murder found the
whole story an immense hoax.
"Did you see the dead manF'
asked a Capital representative to the
commissioner this morning.
"'No, / did not see him" replied
the commissioner, but | talked with
him. He was not dead and he had
not been shot. He was hit with a
spade or a shovel, which produced a
terribly painful scalp wound. ! could
not get much out of him. He will be
down here Monday"
1t is impossible to say why Me-
Brien told the commissioner and
others that he had killed the Indian
unless he was drunk and had but an
indistinct recollection of what had
happened. The aged prisoner has
every reason to congratulate himself
that he is not guilty of an offense
more serious than a simple fight.
McBrien still claims that Carney
went to his home drunk and that he
hit him in self defense. Carney ap-
reared dazed yesterday and today.
Whether ii was from the whiskey or
the blow on the head it is impossible
to determine. The preliminary hear
ing will be held Monday morning.

began With A DELUGE
Famed Missourian in 0ptomistic View
Pictured Triumphs of America in
The Twentieth Century.

Water, and lots of it, spoiled the
opening program of the second an
nual Chautauqua assembly in Tulsa,
and instead of there being a packed
tent to hear the Honorable Champ
Clark, of Bowling Green, Mo, the
great Ninth Missouri district con-
gressman, only about two hundred
braved the food and heard the first
number.
"If YOU ever get a drouth in Tul-
sa." said Congressman Clark, by way
of getting close to those listening,
"send for me. ] have been in Tulsa
twice. and both times, it rained hard
er than ever saw it rain before or
since"
The Cbautauqua orchestra, compos-
ed of local talent, directed by Mr..
Kreyer, played an arrangement OF
civilian Tell" after which j. M.
Hall. as the representative of the To-
cal organization in charge of the as
sembly. made an address of welcome.
Mr.. Hall spoke of the development of
the country, how at one time 1t was
howlng wilderness, of the first peo-
pie. He told of the coming of rail
roads, commercialism, the schools, and
churches, and finally, of the Chautau-
qua. He extended hearty welcome
to Manager Bartell and his enterprise,
and assured him, through his person
al representatives, that Tulsa takes
kindly to such entertainments, and
promised with fair weather to put
Tulsa's banner high in the list of en-
terprises of the sort in the South
west.
Chancellor NJ. A. Casey, in behalf
of Mr.. Bartell, responded in happy
way, thanking Mr.. Hall and Tulsa
for the kind words, and assuring that
every feature of the splendid program
offered would be furnished, but for
three things: Sickness, death, or a
railroad accident.
Congressman Clark was introduced
by II. X. Cline. former Missourian,
a Democrat who had assisted on more
than one occasion to honor the Pike
county citizen by sending him to Of
flee to serve the people. Mr.. Cline
told a story of famous murder case,
wherein Mr.. Clark was one of the at
torneys. The attorney opposing him
had charged the jury that Clark did
not write his speeches, but that they
were the work of Mrs. Clark. A
friend Of Mr.. Clark followed him,
and in his speech took occasion to de-
fend the now member of congress, by
saying the speeches were Mr.. Clark s
own efforts.
In the court room was Mr., Clark s
fve-year-old son. When the charge
against Mr.. Clark had been refuted,
the young man shouted:
"That's right, dad makes his own
speeches"
MIR. Clark spoke on "The United
States of America in the Twentieth
Century" His speech was patriot

immigration Increa sing.

The prosperous conditions now
prevailing in this country are lead
ing to great European immigra-
ton. Over 1000, 900 immigrants will
have entered the United States
through New York during the year
ending June 80 next, according to
an estimate made by immigration
Commissioner Watchorn at Ellis
island. Up to June 1 there had
been $40, 600 immigrants landed. IF
the ratio so far attained this month
is continued to the end Of the gov
eminent fiscal year the million mark
will be reached, breaking all previ-
Gus records. Last month showed
the largest number Of deportations
in any similar period of time. There

IN REGARD TO SELECTING TEACH
Frs.

AT this season of the year the
various school districts are choosing
teachers for another year and a few
words of advice might not be out of
place.
There Is nothing more important
to the people Of the state, to the
present and future population.
Upon a wise selection Of the teach
ers of the children depends the
prosperity and perpetuity of the
common wealth. Slate makers and
politicians are for a day or year, the
teachers are for all time. The
newspapers and general public pay
far more attention to the choosing
of candidates for the petty political
officers than to the election of
principals and other teachers. Yet
the former are not to be compared
in point of lasting influence with
the latter.
In the selection Of teachers,
character and capacity are first to
be considered. The personality Of
a teacher is Of much value. It is
not so much what a man knows that
counts as the man behind the
knowledge. The poverty plead
should not weigh. Better pension
a poor teacher outright than en-
ploy him simply because,he is poor
and have the entire school popula-
ton suffer therefor. Kinfolk ought
not to be considered. OF course
sectarianism and craftsmanship ought
to be kept out of public schools.
The politics or church preferences Of
the teacher does not effect the
ability to teach.
The standard of Wisconsin TEACH
els is being gradually raised. It
requires more to make a successful
teacher in this state than in former
years. Teaching is no longer al
together the stepping stone pro
fassion. Tt will be happy day for
the schools and the children when

MOVE TO PARDON INDIAN GIRL
Judge Quarles. Who Sentenced Her
for Life, Will Sign Petition.

Milwaukee, June 15.-United States
Marshal Thomas B. Reid and As
sistant District Attorney r. ]. Hen
ming, as a special guard, will take Liz
zie Cardish, the Indian girl who plead
ed guilty to having set fire to a school
house and who was sentenced to life
Imprisonment, to the federal prison at
Fort Leavenworth, Kan, at 4 O'Clock
in the afternoon.
The girl will probably be pardoned
within few months. as she did not
realize the enormity of her crime. The
law, however, is such that only a SEN
tence Of life Imprisonment could be
given the girl. Judge Quarles said that
he will sign any petition for a pardon
which may be presented to him.
'Her mind is not fully developed"
said Judge Quarles, "and she can hard
ly be held responsible for the deed.
Under the law l was obliged to sen
tence her az I did. l have no doubt
that President Roosevelt will grant
pardon"
