THE FIFTH or JULY.

Twas the fifth OF July. and the children
were swathed
In bandages up to their eyes freshly

In lotions nseptic. Each lay in his bed.
And visions Of fireciackers danced through

In soft padded slippers the nurses moved
round
And father and mother scarce uttered a

to the fact
That Willie was les less and four fingers
lacked
On Mabels right hand, while the poll OF
poor Joe
Was as bald as an egg, but as black as
crow
The others had lost only fingers or toes,
A, tribe compared 10 an eye or nose
And SO they all waited in silence and fear
In hopes that the doctors would soon re-
appear.

And girls must be girls though their beau

THEY ENDORSED I-r.


Since the Hook decision nullifed the
democratic law regulating railroad
traffic passenger and freight rates have
advanced from 50 to 200 per cent. Yet
not single republican paper Of any
standing codemns the decision. Very
few republican papers Of any standing
even comment on the decision. And
possibly one hundred republican pa
pers in the state have never mentioned
the decision even in their news col
umns.
The conclusion is inevitable. To in
dorse the decision would be to destroy
the republican party TO denounce
would be to invite the question, Why
did the republican leaders assist the
railroads in obtaining that declsion?"
When 1t was necessary to obtain am
dayits III order to win such decision,
the railroad called upon Oklahoma re-
publicans and they did not call in vain.
The afiidavits were procured, the decis-
ion was rendered and millions have
been added to the freight bills Of Ok
lahoma. ~ -Muskogee Times-Democrat.
