OFF MONEY INDIANS ARE
HARD UP.

Mnskogee, |. r, Aug. 3i.-6ince the
hrst OF last July the Indians have
been living on the fat OF the land
but since the secretary OF the iHterio,
mas announced that the deeds TO inc
land which the Indians we're making
were invalid, and the decision OF the
attorney general that the McCumber
amendment is constitutional. the land
men have cut on money to Indians
and Alex Pesey, who arrived here TO-
day after travelling for three weeks
among the Indians OF the western
part of the Creek nation, states that
the lndifaDs are very hard up. lie
states that the Indians have been iiy.
ing off of the money they have graft
ed by giving deeds, and that with
this shut on, and the drOuth which
dried up their poorly cultivated
patches, the Indians will be In hard
straits. One thing the Indian has
NEVER yet tbought OF, ana that ~
working. He will face starvation bu,
never think Of going to work to make
his living from good quarter section
OF land. They have found grating
the government and the white man
easier. There Is one Creek Indian
who last July sold his land at We
tumka, went 10 Eufaula and Mushcgee
the same day and sold his land again
In each place and then started foy
Okmulgee to sell II again. He got
$25 from each purchaser. OF course
none Of the deeds were good The In

First Bale Arrives.

To Bill Ellis, negro who lives
about seven miles northeast of the
city on Sandy creek, belongs the palm
for bringing in the first bale of cotton
of the 1907 crop.
Ellis brought in his cotton to have
II ginned today, but on account OF
Labor Day, he was unable to get II
ginned, hence when the gin begins
tomorrow, his will be the first bale to
be brought. A big premium will be
given Ellis for bringing in the first
bales OF the new crop.

HUMANE WORK.

Our sister state on the south is doing
a vast and creditable work through
its society for the prevention of cruelty
to animals. The organization has
about eight hundred workers n II
makes its power felt in the uttermost
corner of the state. The membership
has just elected Hon. T F. Walsh, n
millionaire mine owner, to the presi-
dency. 1t is believed that he will push
the work more vigorously thar ever
before, giving it much of his valuable
time and perhaps some of his vast
wealth. His idea is not to prosecute
any violator of the law for the purpose
of being %revenged, but to teach a need
ed lesson. At a meeting held at his
country home, Wolhurst, Mr.. Walsh
made a stirring address to the mem
bers of the board, from which The Re-
publican quotes some interesting
points:
''In assuming the duties of president
of the Humane society, the state bu-
reau OF child and animal protection of
Colorado, l desire first of all TO
thank you for the honor thus conferred
upon me, for l deem it a very great
honor tt be Illus recognized in the
grand work that this society is foster,
ing and encouraging-a work which APP
peals to the better elements only in
our natures. and which is so richly
fruitful in character development.
Il trust that ar increased measure of
sympathy mi support will be given by
the people of the state in promoting
and advancing its enrolling work. /
appeal to all the citizens of our state
who have humane and loving hearts
and they are legion-to become one of
us in spirit if not in enrolment, and
at all times and in all places protect
from and protest against brutality and
inhumanity, especially when visited up.

members of the brute creation.
ITO the officers of the bureau

it SO faithfully and well, and who
nobly give their services gratuitous'

suggest that they always try first to

Chicago makes an extremely good
convention city. 1t is the most central
city in the union, transportation con,
sidered, and it has hotels galore. A
big crowd can be swallowed up and
lost in Chicago The native scarcely
notices a big convention. 1t does not
add materially to the daily crowd and
he is not jostled more than by the
common horde that he meets in his
everyday life 1t is proper, too, that
the republican convention of 1903
should meet in the city where Lincoln
and Garfield We're nominated. 1t Is
important that the delegates should he
keyed up to the highest patriotic senti,
ment and that the candidate and the
platform should be the broadcast and
the best that can be given to the peo-
pie of the nation.

WYOMING WOMEN AND REFORM

Frequently the question is asked,
What has suffrage done for
reform In the state of Wyoming?" The
answer generally is, NO more and per,
haps no less tnan the women of other
states have done"
Women are swayed by the same pas
sions and %prejudices that govern men.
They e to a great degree on the
sterner sex and are controlled by their
wishes and actions. Perhaps the only
real change brought about by female
suffrage is a little higher moral tone
in the conduct of elections. Wyoming
the frs state TO adopt female suffrage,
was the last to pass an anti-gamblins
statute, N today Wyoming is listed
as a black SPOT on the temperance map
of the nation. 1t is not often that wo'
mems clubs take advanced ground in
moral matters. AT the recent meeting
of the State Federation of Women's
clubs. moral questions were not upper
and no action was taken for CT
against the great improvements that
are now agitating the people in the
various sections of TIE nation.
Is the Anti-Saloon League supported
by The women of Wyoming or 10 trey
stand sQuarely for the enforcement
of the ~anti-gambling statute IL able
attorney general is trying SO hard 20
have enforced? From surface indica.
tons one would say there is indiffer'
ence. Individually there is earnest
sentiment in favor of a higher and bet
ter tone, but there is no collective
force: no organization that gives II
TO understand that the women of Wyo.
ming are using their political power for
the betterment of the home and the
general uplift of the people.
The women are the first to feel the
blighting influence Of vice in all its
forms, hence they should be the first
to take pronounced action against it.
Let the women of Wyoming look into
their hearts and ask themselves the
question, What are we doing for the
betterment of the moral conditions in
our state?" There is a great work for
the women's clubs and for societies yet
u~norganiZed.

Good Cough Medicine for Children.

The season for coughs and colds is
now at hand and too much care cannot
be used to protect the children. A
child is much more likely to contract
diphtheria or scarlet fever when he
has a cold. The quicker you cure his
cold the less the risk. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the sole reliance OF
many mothers, and few of those who
have tried it are willing to use any
other. Mrs. F. F. Starcher, of Ripley
w. Va, says, q have never used any
thing other than Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for my children and it has al
ways given good satisfaction" This
remedy contains no opium or other mar
cotic and may be given as confidently
to a child as to an adult. For sale by
all druggists.

RELATES TO
ASSESSORS
LAW TAKING EFFECT FIRST OF
YEAR MAKES FEW CHANGES
IN THE REQUIREMENTS.
Assessor for 1908 to Be Appointed by
Eoard Of County Commissioners,
Coming Election-WiIl Receive a
Salary Of $500 and Pay Deputies.

One of the laws passed by the last
state legislature, and not to take effect
until the beginning of the year 1908,
is that relating to the appointment and
election of county assessors. This was
house bill No. 81, which was approved
February 20 by Governor Brooks, sec-
ton IA providing that the act shall
take effect and be in force from and
after the first day of January, 1908. 1t
provides for the election of county as,
SCISSORS at the election to be held in
November of next year, taking the mat
ter, after that time, from the hands of
the board of county commissioners of
each county, as under the present law.
Next Years Appointment.
The first section provides that Eat
the regular session and meeting of the
county commissioners of Zach county
in Wyoming, to be held in January OF
the year 1908, the county commissions
ers shall appoint n county assessor,
who shall hold his office for the pc
Rod of one year, and until his asses.
sors shall have been duly elected and
qualified according to law. And that
thereafter, at the general election held
in November, 1908, and at each general
elect IN held thereafter in the state Of
Wy oming, there shall be elected a couu,
ty assessor for each county in the state
of Wyoming, who shall be a qualified
elector of and who is a property owner
and freebooter of his said county"
Becomes County Officer.
The assessor so elected shall hold
Office for two years, shall give pond,
shall take the prescribed oath, shall be
furnished with an office and supplies
by the county commissioners, and shall
keep his office open during the usual
business hours of each day, the same
as other county officers, Sundays and
holidays excepted, and with the eXcep-
ton of the time he is away in the
performance of his duties, making the
assessments and listing the property
for the purpose of taxation. In coun-
ties of the first class he shall receive
81, 500 a year; $1,000 in s~econd-class
counties, 81, 900 in third-class counties
and $500 in fourth-class counties, be-
sides a contingent fund of $500 for
necessary expenses. He shall appoint

law. But when that fails and the law
must be invoked, let Its full penalty be
melted out and its lesson be thoroughly
impressed upon the mlscreant.

bier, happier n better you will feel
And the same humane thoughtful
ness should be exercised toward the
helpless, harmless birds and animals
of the brute creation. They are, in
a sense. fellow passengers with us on
LIES journey. Man is the highest CT
created beings. Our domestic animals
trustingly look to us for kind treat
ment. We should respond by letting
our humane impulses control us in ali
of our acts towards birds and other
animals. We shall be richly rewarded
both by the commentator of our w
souls and by the deep gratitude these
dumb creatures always show for kind
ness accorded them, even If they can
not express it in words.
Yes, try the better way Don't
ride a poor horse on a dead run up a
steep mountain road, where you know
it is so difficult to breathe. Don't ov'
erload animals and then beat them be.
cause they cant pull the load, Don t
cut and slash a poor horse because he
happens to stoumble on a ~wretchediy
kept road. Be always considerate and
kind to beasts of burden. Remember
that while they may be far removed
from us in the scale of intelligence,
they have at least the same suscepti-
bility to physical pain.
When harmless animals call out
their friendly greetings to you don't
respond by trying to take their lives
with your murderous revolver. Don't
put shotguns into the hands of your
boys for them to go forth n destroy
every little bird or other animal that
crosses their path. Don't be a party
to the slaughter OF innocent animals
just for the pleasure you may have iii
killing. No, try the better way Treat
of Gods creatures in a gentle, hui
name way and, believe me, you will lie
richly rewarded.
ut is the ardent desire of this soci-
ETY. to fulfill its mission more by ap-
pealing to the good that finds a resting
place IN every human heart than by
resorting to the corrective influence of
the law. 1t is in this spirit that, in its
name, | trustingly appeal to every citi'
zen of Colorado to become at heart one
of its members, and to help us to build
up such a high moral sentiment in our
people as will make compliance with
humane laws and regulations a plea
sure and a labor of love rather than a
