Truro. N. S., Aug. 3.-Acting on a
telegram from the Boston police de-
partment, the chief of police of Truro
and two officers boarded the Boston
express tonight and made a thorough
search of the train for Luigi Restelli

was not on board. 1t has been re-
ported that Restelli was on the train,
making his way to Bay st. George, n.

passed through Truro an hour before
the Boston express arrived so it was
not possible for the Italian murderer
to make connection.

night on a request of the Boston po-
lice resulted in finding no trace of
Luigi Restelli, the fugitive double
murderer of Quincy, Mass. 1t is pos
sible that the slayer, if he came to
Truro, caught an earlier train and
boarded the night express for Sydney,
which left Truro before the police
learned of his possible presence. A
hasty search of the express. however.

suspect resembling Restelli. The Bos-

republican administrations and he is
looking TO a party that had not been
tried in recent years in the hope that
the change will bring about that for
which he has longed for a quarter of a
century.
Lee Cruce, the democratic nominee G
for governor, Is an intermarried citizen
who has always dealt fairly with his
Indian kinsmen. He is thoroughly fa.
miliar with conditions in the Chick
asaw and Choctaw nations and the In
dians assert that he has never taken
from them dishonest dollar. He has
fought for their rights and he was in
strumental In securing the boon of
statehood in order that the Indians
might become citizens in fact and not
the untutored tools of INSCRIPTIONS
white men who would rob them of
their very clothes and sink them into
a deeper disgrace in the eyes of the
world.
The candidacy of James Harris,
chairman Of the state republican cen
trail committee, for the job as secre-
tary Of the interior has decreased the
estimate of him in this section Of the
state. For years the Indians have
watched politicians rise to places of
responsibility in the republican party
and then go to Washington after an
Indian job" that they might fatten
their own purses. Harris Is looked
upon as a double-crosser In that he
poses as leader of a party that
promises better conditions to the In
dians' affairs in order that he might
aid a republican national administra-
tion In holding jobs for politicians in
the indian country without offering
any hope for a more tolerable condi-
ton OF affairs.
Harris inflicted incalculable injury
to the cause of ]. w. McNeal, the re-
publican candidate for governor, In
the Fourth district when he had his
press bureau announce his candidacy
for Secretary Bal'inger's place. II
there are any republican Indians In
this section who favored the election
of McNeal, there are fewer who favor
1t now, for 1t looks to them like an
effort to continue the same old gaff
that the Indians have been fed upon
for years.

underlings has been the cause of the
Indian nations retaining low posi-
ton in the estimate of the world for
twenty-five years. More business"

In the selection OF a site for
federal building, there is likely to
be some spirited bidding. The build
ing will be of value to the section
and an appreciation OF this fact may
lead the people to make "A sacrifice
which there is need to make. The
government has $4,000 with (which
TO buy site a price reduction from
this amount will not induce the gov
ernment to select n site 1t does not
desire. The building is to be an
expensive one, 1t is to be permanent
and a sacrifice of sites on the part
of the government to save a few dol
lars is not in keeping with the policy
of the United States government. 1t
looks plain then that If the bidders
submit a price at which their proper
ty Ii worth and not over the sum of
$4,000. the location of the building
will be just where 1t would be If
wholesale price cutting Is INDUCED
in. There are sections OF the town
that would give a site for the build
ing and bonus besides. Such an
offer from one section would induce
the people In another section TO
make the same offer. Ardmore needs
the money worse than the federal
government; cheapness of price,
while acceptable to the government.
VIII not induce the site agent to
select an undesirable place. If the
bidders will hold to the prices asked.
the government will pay the sum and
IL will save this town from $4,000
to $4,000. Just as well keen the
money here. Just as well make the
government pay for the site The
money has been appropriated for
that purpose, the government expects
to pay it, the federal officials will
nave more respect for the business
sagaclty of the town if II has to nav
the sum and it Is reasonable to pre-
sumo that the government does not
want a free site. If they had they
would have asked for it. They could
have gotten 1t just as easily as pay
ing for It.
Keep cool and keep your money.

would have raised his standard of liy-
ing and kept him prosperous.
The Indians are not willing that
republican candidate for governor who
Is tool of Jim Harris shall occupy
that high seat, for the time has come
when the Indian must join with his
neighbours In an honest endeavor to
secure relief from bad conditions
through local and state legislation, and
he's not willing that the party that
has deceived him for so long shall
further tempt him with deceit.

.MNEAL AND NEGRO DOMINATION

The republican party has begun war
on the grandfather clause. Their pur-
pose to ignore the law and oppose
its enforcement with the hope OF its
ultimate destruction became apparent
as refusing to comply with its proyi-
sions and as determined TO work for
its ultimate repeal or destruction.
Notwithstanding the fact that II is
at present the law of the state, they
refused to yield obedience to its
enforcement and betray their deter
mination to destroy the law if ever
given power to do SO.
Thus the Issue of the recent pri-
mary becomes the issue of the COM
ing state election. The people who
fought for white domination in July
must renew the fight in October. A
vote for Cruce is vote for white
Nomination. vote for McNeal is
a vote for negro domination. The
''rallrCad bondsman" and his entire
ticket stand pledged to destroy the
grandfather clause If elected to of
flee. If the people who voted for
the preservation OF Oklahoma by
securing to oklahoma white mans
government wish TO harvest the
fruits of their former victory, they
must oppose the election of the re-
publican ticket, for every vote in ia.
yor Of McNeal and his followers is
vote for the immediate destruction
OF the political and social life. The
voters of the state are now to an
swcr with their suffrage the omin.
Gus question, shall Oklahoma be Ne
grOid or Anglo-SaXon?"

In the five cities In Texas visited
by the Barnum & Bailey show the
newspapers complain that band
of crooks are following the show.
Houses have been entered. daylight
robberies have been made, sharpers
have played their victims for money
rings and watches.
The conditions that prevail In Tex
rs will not prevail I'm Ardmore. II
Is well enough to be on the look
out, but It is almost a certainty
that the crooks will not ply their
trade in Ardmore.
When the last big circus visited
Ardmore the usual number Of crooks
followed 1t, but not a man was held
up and not a house was entered.
Ardmore has an officer who knows
how to attend to their case for
them. When the crooks alighted from
the train ut the outskirts of the city
the first man they heheld was an
officer in uniform lie knew lust
where to be on the lookout and his
instinct as an officer led him TO the
spot where they left ,he train.
The crooks were notified that they
could not operate in Ardmore. They
never made turn when they were
not under the eagle eye of an Off
Ger. This year will be no exception.

FOURTH DISTRICT IS NOT DOUBTFUL
CARTER'S OPPOSITION MILD FACTOR

Hugo, Okla, Oct. 14.-Since the
New York Herald has designated two
congressional districts of Oklahoma as
safely democratic, two safely republi-
can and one doubtful the question nat
urally arises as to which district is
considered doubtful. Since there are
no issues in the Fourth district, which
is represented by Charles d. Carter of
Ardmore, that would warrant even the
semblance of changed sentiment It
Is hardly possible that the Fourth dis
trict is the doubtful one. The opinion
prevails here that the Second district
was meant. However, there are no
conditions that indicate other than
four districts democratic and one

That the influence of J. +. McMur-
ray of McAlester is being used to some
extent among the Indians 10 defeat
Carter is evident. McMurray declared
in Washington after the Gore expose
that he would defeat Carter because
Carter refused to stand for McMurray's
contracts. MCMurray doubtless eX-
pected the influence of Governor
Douglas II. Johnston of the Chicka-
saw nation, and at that time thought
there was a probability of getting the
support of Principal Green McCurtain
OF the Choctaw nation. I hus far John
ston Is supposed to have kept his
hands off the fight, and, while McCur
tain Is charged with being a republi-
can, he will have no part in any Nc
Murray scheme to defeat an honest
democrat who has always been an ad
vocate Of measures looking to the well
fare of the indians.

was born and reared In the indian Ter
ritory and his very heart beats are In |
unison with the heart beats of his fell |
low citizens of Indian blood. In his |
career as member Of congress he has |
never been charged with deserting the .
cause of the Indians. He has made no
mistakes on which the republicans can
hang hope for his defeat. Quiet,
