shall Baum of Checotah and Deputy
Odom of Eufaula paid their lives as a
price. They were shot down, accord
ing to Crazy Snakes son, by Charles

aroused the state authorities. Gov

militia eand the word was passed out
that the band must be captured or
killed.
Not till the soldiers arrived at 3
o'clock this afternoon was the peoples
apprehension relieved. Then the In

NORTH
COAST

Although surveyors of the North
Coast railroad have been working for
some time past on the south form OF
the Walla Walla river and run lines as
far as Roberts ranch, presumably with
the idea of constructing the proposed
line through this city in that direction,
if is understood the findings have not
been satisfactory, and that the origin
al Mill creek survey will quite likely
find more favor with the promoters
According to those who are conver-
SAINT with operations on the river, the
grade has been found too great for
nractical purposes, and other difficult
ties such as danger of freshets, ana
the narroWness of the canyon, are
said to be bearing factors in the esti-
nation of the engineers. 1t is said TO
have been the intention of the engl-
neers TO survey a route from the heau
of the south fork of the Walla Waiia
river to the head of the Salmon riVer'
and n1ans for a two-mile tunnel were
considered It is reported the situation
for the tunnel is ideal, but other un-
favorable conditions are expected TO
cause the abandonment Of that ldea.

cIariug il an insult to the south,
Rishop Warren Chandler, of the Meth
odist church. is agitating against the
acceDtance of Rockefellers gift of a
million dollars in the fight for the
determination of the hook worm" He
said:
1T is hoped our people will not be
taken in by ROckefeller's vermifuge
fund and hook worm commission. The
habit Of singing out the south for all
sorts of reforms, remedies and en-
lightenments is not for our benefit;
and the too ready acceptance of these
things on the part Of some of our peo-
pie is not to our credit.
Rockefeller would take charge of
both our heads and stomachs. The
gift follows a campaign of sensational
magazines, which picture the south as
cursed with a pellgara and hook

gagged in the portrayal of our section
of the union as ccursed, we wonder
THAT other sIander is to be Illuminated

HAS THE
TRUMPS

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Governor
Hughes is in a position today to Sc
cure and hold the republican OrganiZ-
alton of the state sOldly for the ma
tional campaign. For the first time
since he has been prominent polite
ally he takes over the leadership if he
appoints a loyal man to succeed Comp
troller Gaus, who died yesterday while
on hunting trip in Canada.
If he appoints a loyal man the en-
tire state patronage is in the hands
OF the Hughes machine, as the comp
troller has much patronage. Such a
move would give the governor control
of the legislature and make possible to
force the passage of direct primary
measure in January. His friends say
he will be the presidential candidate
in 1912.
Ever since he assumed the COVER
norship. the machine leaders of the
republican party have been against
Hughes and most of his proposals.
Every point he has gained has been
after a struggle. Hughes as a political
boss will be a new figure in the po-
litical world The naming of the new
comptroller is awaited with intense in
terest and his personality and record
will be subject to immediate scrutiny.
