n. NJ. MURDOCH. Editor
THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

Governor Lewelling'S message, which
was delivered Tuesday, to the Populisi
organization called the Kansas le8lsia
ture. is upon the whole rather conserv-
alive document: much more so than his
inaugural address gave promise OF.
Whether upon the EAGLES suggestion
or not, the governor certainly awaited
himself of the opportunity afforded II
the interval between the delivery OF his
inaugural and the message to conform
the latter more nearly to the popular
sentiment of the state than the former
was, Judged by the universal criticism
put upon il. He omitted any recon-
mendation for a state loan agency sys-
TEN, and also an agency system for the
sale of liquors, as was anticipated from
expression in his address upon taking
the oath of Office.
The most unfair, If not damaging
feature of the message tc the state S
material interests is It's reference to the
financial condition as pertains to munlc-
ipaI mortgage Indebtedness, county,
township and city. The governor quotes
from the records; but, while the figures
given show an increase in debt, the
condition exhibited is a credit to each
interest named, rather than discredit,
indicating public improvements to that
extent IN cost and n corresponding in
crease in value to the property Of the
citizen, and at the same time demon
slrating the unquestioned solvency of
the states municipalities. In view Of
these facts and the absence Of any refer
ence to them m the message, and the
further fact that the matters referred to
are the private concerns of the munich
palities. the governor, in presenting
them IN the form in which they appear
in his message, rather invites the criti-
cism that it was done more for the pur-
nose of bearing out the assertions Of his
partisaus that tie rich Che lenders) are
growing richer. at the expense of the
poor nhe borrowers who are becoming
poorer.
There is another point in regard to
mortgage Indebtedness in the state to
which the governor makes no ailUslOn,
though il has been a favorite theme for
discussion by Populi5t speakers and
newspapers, and that is private mort
gages-far1ns and city properties. This
form of Indebtedness has been reduced
throughout the state within the period
covered by the statistics in the govern
or's message $1O,0OO,OOO at low esti-
mate, which is $7,75O,O0O greater than
the increase in the municipal indebted
Eess.
There are some other features OF the
message that invite criticism, but these
referred to are calculated TO injuriously
affect the financial interests of the state
and its citizens and, hence, are not only
legitimate. but in defense of the material
welfare, duty demands that they be pre-
senUed for the public information.

To the Editor Of the Eagle

To the Editor OF the Eagle
At first thought it looks rather COM
mendable to call Oklahoma, or some
new state, ''Linc In, but, to reconsider,
it is not appropriate. In the first place,
the name of a state should not be too
common name As it is, every state
has its Lincoln" as a postoffice, either
in city, town or village So it is with
Washington; the city overshadows the
state in Importance and age, and l have
always considered it unfortunate for the
state of Washington that it was called
by that name, and if / were resident
of that state / would rather have it
called "Walla Walla" or Willamette"
or any other Indian name, than that of
the ''father of his country" Better
leave it Oklahoma, as Il Is, as it is thus
different from any other state or city
Better call it ''Kickapoo," and send all
''kickers" to that state; or name 1T after
some woman and call it ''Jezebel."

hiblted & remarkable judgment, clear

his responsibility, he has preserved a
wonderful equanimity. Many a man,

would have precipitated conflict which
might have endangered or sacrificed the

law-abiding citizens, but Douglass has
strengthened the cause of the people by
o wiIl-power mixed with the blandest
courtesy. We will bet, should necessity
require it, that he is a tiger with fur on
