terably opposed to any tariff legis-
lation that will result in re-

In the language of our President,
we stand unequivocally for pro-

for the people and the territory,
and we feel that justice demands,
and that the welfare of the Repub-

He stands by the principles of the
Republican party as advocated by

Mckinley-the advance agent of

HIS NECK WAS BROKEN

Carpenter, who came here about six
weeks ago. was thrown from a buggy
while driving in Oklahoma, about
four miles west OF here, some time
between and 10 O'Clock Saturday
night, and his neck was broken. He
was found dead in the road about
10 o'clock by William Green. 1t
seems that the buggy struck against
tree and Carpenter was thrown to
the ground or perhaps against small
tree that stood nearby. Signs were
easily dscernable where the buggy
had hit the large tree and then slid
across the road No one was with
the unfortunate man, but he had been
seen driving recklessly during the
evening
The coroner's verdict was that he
came to his death by being thrown
from a buggy. The body is now at

1t is believed the *.wo parties who
were implicated in The attempt to
blow bank vault at Montague last
Sunday night We're in Ennis Friday
afternoon.
A reporter of this paper visited
Ennis yesterday morning, and in
conversation with j. G. Lyon. agent
there for the Wells Fargo Express
Company he was told that two sus-
picious looking characters were
given something to eat by Mrs Lyon
on the day above mentioned Mr.
Lyon said that when he went home
from the office that night he was
told by his wife of the visit of the
two men According to Mrs Lyon $
description of the two men one was
a young looking fellow and the 9TH
er appeared to be about middle age.
| The older of the two remained at the
gate and the young man applied at
the door for something TO eat. The
young man acted as spokesman and
stated that they were professional
tramps, bud Mrs. Lyons stated that
their appearance did not bear out
this claim. They claimed that they
came from Fort Worth to Ennis in a
refrigerator car and that they were
on their way to Houston. The older
| man limped as he walked and Mrs,
| Lyon is quite sure that he wore a
large bandage around one lower
| limb.
| Mr.. Lyon stated to the reporter
that from the description of the men
given him by Mrs. Lyon and from the
manner in which they acted he feels
sure they were the parties who at
tempted to rob the Montague bank.
Today information comes fror
Houston that two men, who are be
lieved to be the Montague robbers
are under arrest there. One is
