Mr.. HARRIsoN's southern

Mr.. HARRTsoN's southern policy,
as outlined by recent information
from Washington, means extermina-
ton to the negro as an office holding
class, and it is even intimated that
he is soon to be denied admittance
into the councils of the party. In
fact movement is already assuming
shape, to re organize the republican
party in the south and exclude the
negro entirely. The tabooed broth
er Is watching the situation with
complacency and if forced to train
by himself will give his recent allies
something to ponder over after the
next election.

THEOklahoma craze has not struck
Arkansas to an alarming extent as
yet. Let the good people of this
State beware of the new territory.
At distance it appears enticing, but
In reality, it is full of trouble, conten-
ton, disappointment and failure.
The people who go there with the
boom are those with little money
and little judgment. Fortune has
not been good to them at home and
they think they can WOO the tickle
goddess with success out in the land
where heretofore only the wild Indi-
an lived and hunted and died. Some
day Oklahoma will be a growing,
prosperous territory, and later one
Of the sisterhood of States. But it
will not be within the next decade,
in fact not until the boomers dockiDg
there now are mostly deceased, or
disguised and absent. When legiti-
mate enterprises have been estab-
ished, farms cultivated, villages and
cities built at the cost of great labor
and privation, then Oklahoma will
be worth visiting, but not until then.
Arkansas, the best all-round country
extant, offers to-day inducements far
superior to those of Oklahoma.

The injustice resulting from the
minority prevailing in elections is
not better illustrated than In the re-
cent contest in Rhode Island. At
the general election for governor and
other state officers, the democratic
candidates received a plurality of
nearly 5000 over their republican
competitors, but they fell short of a
majority of the whole vote by few
hundred, and there was no election,
except the democratic candidate for
attorney general, who received ma
jority vote. The democrats also
cast plurality for more than enough
senators and representatives to give
them decided majority or joint bal
lot, but on the second trial the repub-
licans conciliated the prohibitionists
and thus gained the Legislature. The
republican candidates for state offic-
ers, except the attorney general, will
now be elected by the legislature
and fill their places for year in the
face of large popular majority
against them. II such antics were
INDUCED in the south, the Rhode Is
land senators and representatives
would probably offer resolutions of
inquiry in congress to ascertain
whether the southern states had re-
publican forms of government; but
as it happens in new England they
let 1t pass.
