May Lose Commissions.

Muskogee, |. r, Sept. 23.-The)
commissions and bonds of about thir-
ty republican notaries of Muskogee
county will probably be revoked or
forfeited as a result of the investiga.
tion Of frauds porpetrated by the re-
publicans generally. by the democrat
ic investigators now working in the
city
As the investigation Friday and
Saturday progressed 1t was seen that
the fraudulent election methods OF
the Republicans were worse than had
been supposed. but even the men
most in touch with the ,sittIation
We're astounded when this morning II
was discovered that in addition to
their absolutely Illegal manner OF
making an affidavit, the republican
uotaries had as a rule, kept no rec
ord OF these afiidavits, or else had
destroyed them. For what nefarious
reason they would not comply with
the law that requires all notaries to
keep n record of their afHdavits, Is
not quite certain, though 1t is prob
able that they thought It would be
moro difficult for their methods to
be traced. when called upon this
forenoon for copies OF affdavits, In
every instance they refused to give
them. They have either kept no rec.
ord, or else have destroyed them, and
their refusal to comply with the law
Is only a blind to hide this fact.

TAYLOR KNEW STORY.
Story Of Goebel's Assassin Known to
Ex.GoXernor.

indianapolis, Ind. Sept CIV. s.
Taylor could not be found today, eith-
er at his Office or at his home, to
verify the statements contained In
the dispatch from Richmond. II was
said at his office, however, that he
vas in tie city.
The Clark woman formerly lived
on South Arsenal avenue. Her hus-
band was a railroad brakeman. The
two were divorced, 1t is said, about
two years ago. and since then Mrs
Clark has not lived in indianapolis.
II is thought that she went from here
% Chicago.
Three years ago Mrs. Clark told
her story of the Goebel murder to
an indianapolis newspaper man. who
carried 1t to Governor Taylor. sat
isfied that the woman was in posses
sion of information valuable to him
and others implicated in the assassi-
nation, Taylor took the woman's dep
osition.
The story of an Indianapolis wo-
man being an eyewitness to the muir
der was not published, inasmuch as
Gov. Taylor pointed out that publ.
cation at that time might make SIS
verification impossible. He argued
that nothing be printed because he
hoped to locate the woman who was
with Mrs. Clark.
Taylor regarded the womans story
as valuable. Preliminary to the first
trial of Caleb Powers. friends of the
secrtary of state had sought to estab.

Dewey strongly res,nts the PROPOSE.
ton that has been discussed in more
or less academic to surrender the
Philippines which Of all men, he was
the leading factor in bringing under
the American flag
In an interview today the admiral
sets out that which impcls him to
insist upon the retention OF the is.
lands. The strong point of his argu-
mcnt is not based upon the military
or naval importance of the archipela'

ent aud prospective of the Philip
pines to America I'm the extension Of
our trade with the orient.
The Admiral said: abandon the
Philippines? don't believe our coun-
try will ever do that. Certainly It
should not because It has altogether
too much a, stake. II is only our con
troll over the Philippines that makes
IL possibl, for us to insist upon the
open door In the east toward which
our diplomacy has boeu directed for
years. We want our share Of the en-
ormous commerce Of the east and We
can't keep the door open for 1t un.

Now and In the Middle Aces.

Most of us probably rejoice that we
did not live In the NTH or the tenth or
even In the seventeenth century OF the
Christian era. When we think Of
those times we see their dark side and
we feel how much we should miss IN
which we now take pleasure. But can
We be sure that the individual, man
In those past centuries had on the nv.
erage II worse time than the average
man has now? lie was In many
points less sensitive to suffering than
we are, and he may have enIoycd
some things more intensely. The lit
eraturc of the seven centuries that
preceded our own Is IN many way-
quite as buoyant In spirit as is ours
II Is often thought that the fear Of
torment In future life must have
broodcd like dark cloud over the
minds Of past generations, and tha,
the tendency of opinion which has at.
tenuated this fear represents great
Frightening In the sky.
Lucrctlus held that the greatest serv

so long after the days of Lucretius

Heretofore the professional cleaners

"A PRESENT
FOR MOTHER

What. would be a suitable present
Nor my mother?" writes young wo-
an. Bless your heart and bless your
iother's dear old heart. anything is a
Suitable present for her just so it is ac-
companied by love and given with a
hug and a kiss and a pat on the back
that tells her Of the love of her child
Mother doesn't care what the present
is. She looks through the present onto
your heart.
On the other hand. nothing is too fine
or too precious or too rare to be a pres
ent for mother. She has always given
you her love and devotion, deeper than
any ocean. Her heart has always borne
your sorrows. taken your disappoint-
ments as her own, and your triumphs
have been her own. only they are
greater triumphs and sorrows and dis
appointments for her than they ever
could be for you.
But while anything is a suitable
present for mother. to neglect her is q
crime beyond punishment. a sin beyond
forgiveness. A grimy little stick ol
candy from a dirty little first is treas.
