DELEGATION
IS DIVIDED

Washington. d. G., March From
now on there is to be political war be-
tween the Democratic members of con.
gress from Oklahoma and the three
Republican members. As the delega-
ton stands after March a. the Repub-
Iicans have one more member in the
lower house than the Democrats. but
when the t,so senators come in the
delegation is Democratic by one vote.
In the past there has been but one
Republican member. Representative
Mcclure. and the Democratic mem
hers have endeavored in every way to
keep the delegation a unit on all legis-
lation pertaining to the state in or.
der that their work mays be success
full. In this they have been only par
TALLY successful, because Mr.. Mcclure
has insisted in having his own way
in good many matters, and recently
has taken his own course regardless
OF the decision Of the rest of the dele
cation. This was particularly true re-
garding legislation for the Five Tribes
this winter.
Now that there are three Republi-
can members, Mcclure will himself
try to dictate the legislation for the
delegation, because he is strengthened
BY two more votes. and the Repub-
lican majority in the house. And the
Democratic members now propose to
play politics from the ground up and
place the Republicans on record on
every proposition that comes up

Eleven fine fat fowls went comfort
ably to roost last night In Rasmus
Smiths hen house. PIG Dakota avenue,
but this morning they had Joined the
dressed poultry class.
This marvellous transformation in
the condition Of the fowls was wrought
by the genius of a "culled pusson,"
who, seeing them perched upon their
roost, conceived the idea that It would
be an act of mercy TO remove them
from that position.
The Smiths had their suspicion when
they found the barnyard empty this
morning and they soon located the
fowls at a negro house. Here they
we're told that a certain black man
had sold them the chickens, but said
individual made his escape. The
chickens were recovered. minus heads
