POLITICAL BOSSES.
THE INDIANS CAR
RIED THE DAY.
RED MEN SHOWED THE WHITES
A THING OR TWO IN
OKLAHOMA ELECTION

The report of the circumventing OF
the white politicians OF Oklahoma
by the "untutored red men" OF the
indian territory In the constitutional
convention Of the new state OF Okla
homa is most gratifying. The whites
had intended to run things about as
they pleased, and 10 give the Indians
only the crumbs. But the intended
victims turned the tables In a man
ner that was surprising 20 the would
be bosses. Not only did they take
all the Offices worth mentioning, but
they also built a constitution TO suit
themselves, and even divided hhe
new state into counties which will
assure the Indian inhabitants OF at
least their fair share of representa-
ton in the state Legislature.
This result is pleasing because
there seems TO be little doubt that
the best men won The Indians OF
the territory are mostly well edu-

NO WRECKS WITH
THESE SIGNALS.
NEW SIGNAL BLOCK
SYSTEM TESTED.
INVENTION FOR PREVENTING
RAILROAD ACCIDENTS DE
MONSTATED.

Richmond, March l6.-Rpresen-
tatves of various railroads and many
prominent business men of Rich
mond, gathered at Elba station at
$3.50 O'Clock yesterday afternoon and
took special train to point on the
Richmond, Fredericksburg and Poto-
mac railroad, several miles out of
the city, where the Richmond Sig
nal Company. represented by George
W. Lancaster. to view the workings
of a single track system OF signals
for the prevention Of railroad acci-
dents.
Signals had been placed at regular
intervals, and two engines and one
coacr representing three trains.
were used in making the test.
Many expert signalmen were pres
ent yesterday and the signals prompt
ly responded to every test to which
they were put, much the gratif-
cation of those present.
1t is claimel that the signals work
automatically, without the interven-
uon OF any human agency. and It
was suggested by railroad officials
present that a system Of such signals
be placed on every track leaving
Richmond. in order that the railroads
may have a practical test of the ben
efts TO be accured from the system
1t is claimed by the inventor that
the system, IL noticed by trainmen.
viii absolutely prevent head-on and
rear-end collisions, and will warn
the engineer when there is danger
of broken rail, open switch or
draw-bridge accident.

THE WANNING
BILLBOARD

One Of the proprletors Of a Leaven-
worth theater recently made the as
sertion TO the writer that he did not
believe there was a value TO be re-
ceiyed from billboard advertising that
would be proportionate to its cost
and therefore he intended 70 use the
newspapers exclusively. There is no
longer any question that attractive
advertising in the daily paper gets
better results than advertising Of any
other character II pays, when It is
well done. and 81 pays big. And. quite
on the contrary. there is a very we'll
developed question as to whether bill
board advertising gets any results az
all. a great many big manufactur-
ers Of patent medicines and OF paints
and Of other articles have discontlnu-
ed the use Of the billboard after hav-
ing carefully kept check upon results.
and many more will do so this year.

PARATIONS TO DO so
REPoRTED THAT HE HAS ASKED
CLEVELAND MAN TO MAN
AGE HIS CAMPAIGN.

Cleveland. Ohio. March 1e.-
Though Mayor Tom L. johnson de-
nies the report. It is generally be-
lieved that the Cleveland man has
practically agreed to act as manager
of Mr.. Bryan's next presidential cam
paign. 1t was learned that the visit
OF Bryan to Cleveland was to discuss
the campaign of 1908, and that Bry-
an sought Johnson's consent to at
tempt to do for him what Mark Han
ma did for Mckinley
The first meeting to formulate
plans was held several months ago,
shortly after Bryan's return from his
rip around the world It was yir-
tually decided at that time that Bry-
an make third attempt TO gain the
nomination and the subsequent-elec-
ton, and that Mayor Johnson should
be his manager. II was TO talk over
further plans OF action and to out
line the campaign OF 1908 that Bry-
an slipped into Cleveland to see
Johnson.

CORTELYOU WILL
SWING TO CASH.
FINANCIAL POLICY
is CONSERVATIVE
GOVERNMENT FUNDS NOT TO BIZ
USED TO ADVANCE PRIVATE
INTERESTS.

Probably the day when government
money can be dumped into Wall st.
brokers has passed for time. Sec
rotary CoU..you has been at the
head OF the treasury department
only n week. but he has let it be
known in quiet emphatic manner
that his financial policies are going
to be conservative. The depart
ment will be kept within it's old moor
ings Government funds will not be
used to advance private business in
terests
Neither the secretary nor his
friends are making comparisons with
the administrations OF other secre-
taries Nevertheless, it Is seen al
ready that whatever the record of his
own term as secretary may be, he
intends TO steer clear OF citicisms
that have been leveled against the
administration OF the Office In recent
Zines. II has been charged that
clal news matters. Information was
said to reach the National City bank
I'm New York before IL was known to
any one ,lse outside the department
The channels through which this in
formation was conveyed TO New York
have been well known here.
Since he became secretary Mr..
Cortelyou has directed that news Of
the department must reach tho public
through his Office. The free and
easy methods of the last few years
have been curtailed This has caused
embarrassment in some quarters.
The Aldrich law, enacted by the
recent Congress, will afford consider
able relcT in financial matters There
Eiil bo less necessity for extraordl-
nary methods than heretofore. Mr.
Cortelyou has alread exercised his
discretion under one clause OF the
law and directed that national banks
be allowed TO retire as much as So
100000 OF currency a month He
proposes TO test this provision for a
little while and ascertain how II
works
If there has been any favoriisnl
among the banks heretofore the new
secretary Will eliminate IL. He in
tends 10 distribute government mon
eys as impartially as possible among
national banks II Is within his dis
erection to direct that customs receipts
be deposited with national banks,
but such deposits Will not be made
at present
