^ One day not long since, a man
with prodigtously long legs called
on a tailor on Main street and select-
ed the cloth for a pair of pantaloons,
the price to be $9. With his tape
in his hand, he began to descend the
leg of the stranger, and his aston-
ishment visably increased as he de-
scended. Down, down he went, but
just as he got below the knee he sud-
denly stopped and put his tape in
his pocket. "Well," said the stran-
ger, "are you going to stop there?'
"Sir," said he, "that's as far down
as I can go for $9."

To Mis Excellency, Gov. B. C. Burney
and the Honorable Senate and House
of Representatives pf the Chickasaw
. Nation, nnd others :
A petition signed by very many
prominent men of our Nation (in-
cluding yourselves) have been pre-
sented to me asking me to become a
candidate for the office of governor
of the Chbkasaws.
I need scarcely say to you that
your petition, signed as it is, by the
wisest and best men in the Nation,
is a source of deep and lasting grati-
fication to me.
Next to the approval of my con-
science, I prize above all things
earthy, the approval of my friends ;
and I offer you my profound thanks
for the honor you have shown me,
and for the very complimentary
manner in which you have addressed
me.
Gentlemen, I hare ever accounted
myself a servant of the people, and
always hold myself ready to serve
in any position they think I can fill
with most profit to themselves. I
hold this to be the duty of every
good citizen.
Should you elect me your Governor
I will serve you to the very best of
my limited ability. The interest ot
the whole people shall be my care,
and the will of the people shall be
my guide.
The question of our continued
Nationality is one that will ever de-
mand your grave and watchful care.
The government of the United States
would not, perhaps, knowingly do
us injury, but Senators and Con-
gressmen take the statements of our
rulers as s n index of the wishes of
our people, and one dishonest Gov-
ernor who would use the prestige of
his office to aid the railioads, land
sharks and self-styled progressives,
to rob us of our country, could do
us an injury that never would be re-
paired, and never could be recovered
from.
But I do not propose to enter into
any discussion of politics at this
time.
All these things I will talk to
you about before the election, and
will only say in conclusion that my
whole lile, private and official, is an
open book to the Chickasaw people
You know who I am and what my
record is. My history is familiar to
you all, for I have made it in serving
you. My object has ever been to
benefit my people, and that many of
you appreciate my services I have
the most flattering evidence in the
petition you have done me the honor
to address me.
I again thank you for the confi-
dence you have expressed in me.
Again I promise you a strict and
rigid enforcement of law should I
be elected, and in accordance with
your wishes, I now announce my-
self a candidate for Governor of the
Chickasaw Nation.
