MRS. ANNIE UAXTER'S OFFICE Fischer Repudiated at the Polls, Wants It on a Technicality. Guthrie, Ok., Not. 28 The tribe 3 of the territory adjacent to Oklaho- jjoa proper hare become imbued with the Messiah idea and a ghost dance , It was in progress to-night, in which H Utes and Missouris were the leading fl ? .ipuriU. A number of the leaders of 'hos'tribes were here to-day and w6re greatly excited over the state if affairs prevailing. They are firm Wivers in the Messiah doctrine. V Much uneasiness prevails among settlers as to the final outcome. Whistler and Keokuk of the Sac and fox tribes were in town all day in conference with leading citizens, They announced that a ghost dance had been arranged for to-morrow night about eighteen miles from the city. The same feeling of uneasiness has taken possession of the Potawat- 'omies and Kickapoos. Scalp-Him- (Quick and High Kicker of the for I mer, Snake-Creek, Hunting Pony, p Tall-Reed and Whispering-Bear of t the latter are all iu the city and to il night were in couucil with Captain lCavauaugh of the United States iarniy. These several representatives of the tribes belong to the mo6t in- Vousidered worthy of credence. ' Tho troops stationed here have been notified to hold themselves in readiness for transfer to other fields, but the secretary of war has been advised as to the critical situation in this section and it is hoped the or der will bo revoked until such time as the Indians getover their restless ness and discontent. the supn-me beich by Gov. Francis seems to have given geneiul satisfac tiou. The new judges will take their seat on th.- tirst Monday iu January next and wili have c'aarge of the "cr.minal division" of the court. Thy hold office f r two years and their successor will be elected at the general el-ctiun iti ls02. The republicans held a state con vention hi this city hist summer and Mr. Cu-uucey I. Pilley the director general of that body, annouueed that the ai ty which he had in charge would not make an effort to carry this state this vear, reserving that task for 1892; but that it would car ry the legislature. The result of the effort is know. Some one look ing for Mr. Filley a few days ago. The governor had to appoint a com- raitte to examine the books and make settlement with the auditor and treasurer, and he needed a republi can member of the house to make the third man on the committee. It was very difficult to find one whose name was sufficiently well known as a republicau to assure the public that the-committee was non-partisan. All the prominent republicans who had offered themselves to the peo ple had been been buried under a democratic avalanche and their re mains couldn't even be gotten at pJj Finally the governer secured a man from a county that was rash er.ough to send a republieaiito the house and the committee was thus made up This was Mr. Weeks of Jasper conn ty, who with Senator Nat Sheltou of Schuyler,and Representative Hughes rd J of DeKalb constitute the examining v jujuiiii;?. a tie repuuucaiis oi rue next house will be able, without any trouble to sit around and take their meals off a wash-tub. When Chauucey I. Filley makes another prediction he is likely to hear the word "rats.' The appointment of Judge Thomas to the supreme bench wil cause an appointment to the circuit 53 E3 S3 I last, for the reason that the last was aievising session and the clerical assistance demanded was very great. Besides the new legislature come in with the determination to rtrmch expenditures and will no doubt set a good example in the matter of em ploying as little help as is necessary for the transaction of the business. The state officers are preparing their reports for submission to the governor and transmission to the legislature, The departments are all in good shape and interesting re ports may be looked for. The finances of the state are iu excellent condition and the administration is prepared to make a fine showing for the two years it has been iu power.
