IMMORTALITY, A la lNaERsoLL


In reference 10 Colonel Ingersol's
Hope for Immortality which has
been telegraphed from Boston. we
may remark that any other than bliss
full immortality is infinitely the most
undesirable thing that can be coa'
ceived by the soul of man. The
thought Of Immortality in hell OF
eternal torment among the damned
is awful Even the prospect of suffer
iag for ages in purgatory is terrifying.
There was Freu .hman who once said
that he would rather his soul would be
damned after death than annihilated
at death, but that Frenchman was q
fool. Let anyone read the scriptural
descriptions OF hell, and conceive of
living there through eternity. The
late NJ. Renao talked nonsense about
damnation. but then he did not be
lieve in It,
We repeat that when the unbeliev-
ing IngersolI hopes for immortality,
he must mean immortal bliss In other
words, he must hope for heaven-a
glorious hope.
We doubt whether most people
would like the prospect of everlasting
life. even on earth il all the vieissi-
tudes from winch man suffers were to
continue forever. There is cry that
often CONES from the depths of the
human heart: Rest for the weary

A Fine showing Made by tho Oklahoma
Executive.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Sin an elab-
crate report submitted to the secre-
tary OF the interior Governor william
c. Renf-ow taxes decided stand in
favor of allotment OF the Indian lands
and ultimate statehood under those
conditions His report makes a fine
showing for the new territory. In
comprehensive it almost seems when
one stops to consider the age of The
territory and the difficulties which
have attended its settle ment. Gov
ernor Renfrow takes for his text
these facts An approximate popul a
ton of moe than l50, 600, over sI3 900, =
600 of taxable property, SIX nat onal
and twenty-four private banks, twenty
bushels of wheat to the acre, and
weaves a story which shows what
p uck and perseverance will accom-
plish in four short years. In his re-
port he stated that the growth of the
territory in the four years following
the opening of the first lands has
been in many respects wonderful
Where once the deer bounded over
the plains, now are found farm houses
and wheat fields, not differing ma
terially from those of the older states
Fine cities with electric lights, water
works and all modern conveniences
have been built up. lie who deplores
that the red man has been driven
back will find in these happy hom s
much to console him and justify God 5
law of the survival of the tittest.
He estimates the total population 81
the territory at Isl, ,30i, and that OF
the Cherokee strip at 100, 900. The
immigration of colored people from
the South has practically stopped and
there are few Of them left in the ter
ritory. The aggregate assessed valu-
alton of taxable property is sl3, L.
Oj6 an increase of s., ,Os2, l2s over tina,
of 1891 The capital stock of the ma.
tional banks of the territory is re-
ported at ss76 OOO, and deposits 81, ,4e9,
600 and the loans and discounts
amount to 81 i,O42, 900.
Oklahoma has no bonded indebted
ness. Several Of the counties have
gone into debt to a very considerable
extent, but with the increase of taxa
