The New Panama.
For year after this raid there
was no city OF any size on tho Pacific
Coast Of the Isthmus. Then the queen
OF spain decreed that Panama should
be rebuilt ana a plan was made which
placed the city where it is now. The
old site was much worse than the pres
ent one, although the latter Is not
good. The landing at old Panama was
sucn that ships could not come IN at
low tide. and even to-day the large
steamers anchor at BaInoa.
The building of the present Panama
was begun about eS7 years aeo. The
work was SLOW and the cost enormous.
1t was estimated that ten million dol
lars were spent upon the foriihcations.
\ great deal of this went into the
walls which surrounded the city, some
Of which are still standing. These
walls were long building, and a story
IS told which states that the King
Of Spain was once observed looking
ont toward the west with a frown
on his brow Hereupon, one OF the
knights asked him what he saw.
The frown changed to grim smile,
and the King said:

of Panama They are costing so much

The Trip Across the Isthmus.
Coming to the Isthmus they made
their way UP the River Chagres to
what was then known as the Castle OF
the Chagres. This was san Lorenzo. a
picnicking place for tho canal en-
ployes OF to-day. There was fort
there and some sort OF structure
called q castle. which / suppose was
only blockhouse.
AT any rate. they took the castle
and fort after strong defense ON
the part Of the Spaniards, who cried
out Come on. sc English dogs. enc

The pirates used freballs and finally
burned down the fort. They lost about
one hundred men during the battle.

Lorenzo to old Panama now. II goes
right through tho Jungle but is plain
ly marked. The pirates cut their way
through 1T and almost starved on the
way. At one time they were In such
straits that they cooked some leather
bags which they had found in the
fort. but this food fermented in their
stomaohs and gnawed their very
bowels
They had other hardships. ana at
last came to Las Cruces. where the new
road is to go. \ 8 they neared the
town they saw smoke. and supposed
that the Spaniards were cooking their
dinner. They found that the smoke
came from the ruins. The spa niards
had fired Las Cruces and fled. The

that was left. but the wine was poison

Genuine Democracy.

Senator Henry F. AShurst, of Arizona, is one of the newest and youngest members of the upper chamber of congress, but his love Of truth for truth $ sake and his courage in standing for it, regardless of local or personal interests, are of a kind which ought to bring the blush of shame to the cheeks of many of his venerable colleagues.
 Arguing in favor of the aboli tiOn of the protective tariff duty on sugar the other day, Senator AShurSt was reminded that there are sugar producing inter- eSts in his State. His reply was:
 But l represent 300, GOO sugar eaters. bseQuently his atten- tiOn was called to the wool-rais ing interests in Arizona to whom he refuses to extend tariff taxa tiOn through his vote His con elusive and effective answer was:
 Also, we have 300, GOO users of wool, and they mean more to me than the few men who are en- gagged in the wool business"
 This is the real simon pure democracy the democracy which places the rights of the many above the greed of the few. If congress were largely composed of men of the Ashurst stamp, the government at w a S h in t O n would soon revert to what it's founders intended it to be: a government guaranteeing equal rights to all classes of citizenship and extending special privileges to none-from Norfolk Pilot" Norfolk, Va.

Hause, Claremore crack right half,
was the first to cross the lint in the
game for score. He made the first
touchdown for the E. U. P. S. in the
first quarter Of play, after brilliant
run of 40 yards. Vinita also scored
one touchdown in the first quarter, and
as long as Vinita had an even show
of winning, the spectators behaved real
niyely. that is, as far as any Vinita
spectator is able to do In the second
quarter of the game after series OF
line plunges, Hause again crossed the
goal line for Claremores second and
last touchdown in the game.
Cliff at this juncture booted the ball
over the cross bar for goal, making
the score 1S to 8, having failed to kick
the first goal, in favor of the e. U. P.
S. Then the run started.

CLAREMORE PREPS
SLAM V|N|TA HIGH

The management of the high school
athletic association wish 10 take this
means Of denying the charges made by
the Claremore football players that
they were given a dirty deal here last
Friday The following, which was
taken from the Claremore Progress,
gives out an impression that is a great
injustice to the Vinita boys Among
the other untruths reported by last
Fridays visitors, they said that they
were given poor treatment by the off
cials and were hindered in their play
ing by the spectators. In reality dur
ing the first half of the game, the vi
nita players were forced to submit to
all kinds of decisions from Claremore' IS
referee, and had number of plays
blocked by him. Claremore made the
majority of their gains by crawling and
by the aid of their referee, Mr. Tom
Hall
The report circulated by the social
ed school team from Claremore, will
have absolutely no effect upon the
reputation of the Vinita high school
because the other schools of the state
have been here and are always glad
to return and know that it is not our
custom to treat visiting team as the
"Preps" claim they were treated. They
have also played Claremore and know
that they never lose a game without
setting UP their same old whine of a
dirty deal
The following is what Claremore
says:
Protest Game.
The E. U. P. s. football team went
to vinita Friday and played the Vinita
high school at that place, and as usual,
the spectators handed out dirty deal
