The latest phase of the West
Virginia contest for United
States senator indicates the al-
most certain defeat of Senator
Kenna for re election, and prob-
ably blocks the way to demo-
cratic success with even a pew
candidate. It is barely possible
that Golf may be elected, but the
strong probability is that the
legislature will adjourn without
making any selection, and jjius
leave the next senator to be ap-
pointed by the governor who
goes into office on the 4th day
of March. But this only makes
the complication more complica-
ted. Both parties claim to have
carried the .state; two governors
will be sworn into office, and
eaoh will appoint a different sen-
ator. It promises to be a repi-
tition of th6 old Louisiana con-
test, when dual ’ governments
struggled for mastery for two
years, aud was finally settled
only by the interference of t he
federal govern ment.— W aco Day

If the Oklahoma bill becomes

acres of the finest land in the
West—an area nearly} as lurge
as the state of Ohio. The white

Just at daylight a few morn-

thought that the monster might
attack the house, his hair stood
on end, his eyes bugged out and
his knees smote one upon the
other. He ran frantically around
the room, and seizing a pistol he
again cautiously approached the
door which he opened far enough
to geft tile hand and pistol out,
then closing his eyes tightly he
murmured, “Now I lay me down
to sleep,” “Mary had a little
lamb.’' aud fired two shots.
When he again peeped out, to

had disappeared. Subsequent
