Obituary.

Died, September 7, 1906, Sarah
Emma Patterson, daughter of w.
P. and Dora Patterson, aged 1
year, 8 months and 2 days.
Little Emma was sick but a
short time. She had a little sore
on her foot and no one thought of
its causing trouble, until blood
poison set in, which soon resulted
in her death. Everything was
done that could be done, but to no
purpose. She died Friday and
was buried Saturday at the lower
church, on Marble Creek. The
funeral was conducted by j. H.
Calvert, of Ironton, who preached
a very tender, feeling and instruc-
tive sermon from Proverbs 22:5:
"And there shall be no night there !;
and they need no candle, neither
light of the sun; for the Lord God
giveth them light; and they shall
reign forever and ever" 1t is sad
and painful to give up our little
ones, but how much better off are
they than we. "Of such is the
kingdom of heaven"
One sweet flower has dropped and faded,
One sweet infants voice has fled,
One fair brow the grave has shaded,
Our dear Emma now is dead.
She has gone to heaven before us,
But she turns and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories o'er us
In that blessed spirit land.
Oh! dear papa, mamma, sister,
We will meet in heaven above,
Where there is no death or parting
In our Fathers home Of love,
I,H.C.

Their True Missourian.

Under the heading, ''E. w.
Fletge True Missourian," the
Cape Girardeau Republican speaks
in high praise of Mr.. Flentge's fit
ness for State Railroad and Ware
house Commissioner, for which
position he is the Republican can
didate.
Mr.. Flentge is now making
speeches over the State criticising
the Democratic officials who have
heretofore held State offices, and
telling the voters about the reforms
he proposes to make if they elect
him Railroad and Warehouse
Commissioner.
Flentge is the leader and per-
haps the shrewdest OF the small
band of professional politicians
now running the Republican party
in this county. With the help of
the other members of the cabal he
pushed himself to the front and
won the nomination on the Repub-
lican State ticket. Early in the
campaign, the Cape Girardeau Re-
publican quoted Mr.. Flentge as say
ing that at one time he thought of
not being candidate for Railroad
and Warehouse Commissioner, as
there was not enough money in
the Office, but after Investigating
he found it was about the best
paying Office in the State and he
would be a candidate for it. And
this does not harmonic very we'll
with the Cape Republicans state
ment about Mr.. Flentge's disinter-
ested patriotism and desire to
serve the public more than himself.
This much by way Of introducing
the main subject.
Now, since the time OF Flentge's
nomination for high and respon-
sible State Office, the Cash-Book
has been trying to show his utter
unfitness for public Office Of any
kind. We have repeatedly called
the attention of the public to the
fact that Mr.. Flentge, when col
lector of the revenue of this coun-
ty from 1901 to 1908, was found to
have collected amounts of road
taxes at many and various times
and put the money in his own
pocket, the funds appropriated to
his own use amounting in all, as
far as discovered, to over 5000;
that the Republican county court
hauled him before it at various
times as the missing funds were
discovered, and compelled him to
refund the amounts he had with
held. Subsequent courts did the
same.
These facts which we have given
as a reason why Mr.. Flentge should
not be elected to public Office are
on record in the courthouse here
BY reference to the resolutions
passed by the Democratic party o.
this county last Saturday, pub.
lished elsewhere in this issue o!

HAD INSIDE TRACK.
Former Standard Oil Men Turn
States Evidence.

Kansas City, Mo.-The Standard
Oil company was on trial at the sec
ond session of the interstate COM
merce commission, which is investi-
eating the discrimination in freight
rates and other forms of alleged col
lusion between the Standard Oil
company and the railroads.
Former employees of the Standard
turned states evidence and gave
away many trade secrets regarding
the manner in which railroad EN-.
ployes gave information of inde-
pendent shipments; how every gal
Ion of oil shipped by any competitor
OF the Standard was traced; how re-
tailers were offered inducements by
means of rebates, underselling, etc,
TO buy Standard oil; how jobbers
were undersold; how rates were cut
" hen there was competition and
raised when there was no competi-
ton; how railroad employees were
given oil under the reported dispo-
stion of donations in considera-
ton Of giving out this information
which enabled the Standard to get
the better of competitors; how
agents were allowed money for
drinks and other entertainments for
railroad employees, and how in count
less ways there was an underground
connection, independent of dscrim-
NATIVE rates, between the Standard
and certain roads, by reason of
which independent dealers and their
customers were hampered and
driven out of business wherever pos
sible.

CREEK I'll BAL ROLL.
Report in Circulation that Copies Of
1t Are Obtainable.

Muskogee, I. Ts-The published re-
port that the Creek tribal roll ha.
been copied and offered for sale in
Muskogee and other towns of the
territory has created sensation here.
A number Of men were found who
claimed that they had either seen
copies of the roll or had talked with
men who had purchased or examined
such copies. These people fear that
they will be subject to arrest if their
names become public, therefore, they
will not admit having them. 1t was
learned definitely here this afternoon
that an agent who had copy of
what purported to be the Creek roll
went to a printing establishment in
this city and tried to have the roll
printed. The proprietor of the es-
tablishment after consulting a law
yer, refused to do the work under the
belief that he would be committing a
felony and be subject to imprison-
ment.
A we'll known real estate man Of
this city said today that there were
at least fifty copies of the Creek roll
in the possession of different persons
in Muskogee, but that each person
having one guarded his secret, fear
ing to have his name connected with
a scandal. A responsible land man
stated here tonight that he had been
approached by two men who offered
to sell him a Creek roll for $50. They
Dawes commission.
One of Mr.. Bixby's assistants said
that copies Of the Creek roll might
be obtained from other sources than
from the commission For instance,
he said, abstractors might have made
up a roll from the deeds to allot-
ments, the list of Creek lands for sale
and the removal of restrictions lists.
Such a roll, however, would not be
complete and could not be relied
upon absolutely. Two instances have
been known where copies of the
Chickasaw and Cherokee tribal rolls
were secured in Washington, suppos-
edly from the Indian Office. Such
copies are said to exist in this city.

Washington, ID. C.-ln preparation
:or Wednesday next when the state
hood bill is to be brought up in the
house with view Of sending it to
conference, there was great activity
in the house, but an air of secrecy
and even mystery was drawn over
the proceedings. The leaders were
bracing up the members who are un-
der pressure from home to break
away from the organization and see
that Oklahoma and Indian Territory
are not again left out in the cold
through the efforts Of the admins
tration.
All the members who have shown
signs of wavering had a chance to
make their grievances known to the
speaker and his leutenants, saying
under their breath: ITS all right
We shall vote with Uncle Joe, but
Oklahoma and Indian Territory are
sure to be 4 state before this session
is ended" If one said this, fifteen
said it, everyone with the same air of
mystery, and the added injunction
not to breathe it for fear that the
senate might derive hopes from the
apparent disposition OF the house to
yield. But no one would give par
ticulars. No amount of pumping
sufficed to bring out upon whose au
thority this confident assertion is
made.
Representative Ellis of Kansas
City, Sharticl of Missouri Murdoch,
Curtis and Miller of Kansas, said to
a reporter, in about these words,
each being separately interviewed:
you can say for me, and | shall
be glad to have you send this, that
Oklahoma and Indian Territory will
be made a state before the session is
over"
What the house leaders really
hope for is that the senate will fin
ally agree to accept the Foraker
amendment. in lieu of the Burrows
amendment If the conferees agre
on that proposition the speaker, to
save his face" will accept possibly.
The proposition was scorned by the
house organization until the senate
went still further by looping off Ari
zona and New Mexico, but the
strongest influence operating to
make it conciliatory was the unex
pected interest shown by the COM
mcrcial and political organizations
and the food of kilograms that kept
pouring in on the speaker and mem
bers urging them to stand up for the
senate amendment. If this agitation
can be continued there is little doubt
that ultimately Oklahoma and Indian
Territory will become state.

the Eden disaster, which occurred
August 7, 1904, on the line of the

on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad
four miles east of Florence, Col.
The trains were the UtahCalifor-
MIA express No. 3, west bound from
Denver, and the Colorado-New Mex
ico express No. 10. east bound from
Leadville and Grand Junction.
They met on sharp curve and
were less than 200 yards apart when
the engineers discovered that col
lision was imminent.
1t is known that the engineer Of
the west bound train put forth every
possible effort to bring his train to
stop, but his efforts were fruitless,
although he succeeded in checking
the speed of his train

remaining in the face of sure death,
jumped and saved himself.

of the east bound train, it can only
be stated that they died at their posts
for no one lives to tell the story Of
their heroism.
The disaster was made more hor-
rible by the manner of the death of
the death of many Of the passengers,
estimated at thirty-fve. Fire swept
over the wreck, engulfing the victims
in caldron of flame and leaving only
charred and blackened bones to tell
the tale of slaughter.

officials of the railroad company com

the injured are dangerously hurt and

of dead given above is made up from

The Utah and California express
No. 3, west bound, left Pueblo over
an hour and half late and was given
orders to meet the Colorado and
New Mexico express, No. 10, east
bound, at Florence. This order was
changed, and the west bound train
was directed to pass the east bound
train at Beaver, about twelve miles
east of Florence. The order should
have been delivered to the train crew
at Swallow, but for some reason, still
unexplained, the operator there neg
