THE INuO PORTUGUESE RECORDS

Professor Froudes ueW course q lectures
before the University Of Oxford, on the rise OF
Englard's sea power, promises to be one 1T
great interest to students Of Ri isll en,eI prise
in the East. Professor h Dude finds in pri.
vateering-or or, as he plainly calls it, piracy
the foundations # England's maritime great
ness. His narrative Of the rovers Of the
Chlnncl receives striking confirmation from
the valuable volume just compiled by Mr.,
Frederick Danyers from the Portuguese r.
cords. In our brief reference to Mr.. Dlnver'a
work as one of the books of the week We
mentioned the principal sources from which
be derived his materials. Those materials
not only throw side lights on the British
advance into Eastern waters, but they disclose
the very substantial grounds which the Poltu.
guese had. or declared that they had, for their
opposition to that advance. The truth is
that the fierce international rivalry between
Portugal and England, which in the 10th
century had contributed SO many victims to
the Spanish Inquisition and eliminated in the
Armada, was transferred in the 18th century
to the cells Of tho Grand Inquisitor at Goa
and to the harbours along the Indian coast.
The Portuguese held that the Indian trade
was theirs, not only by priority Of discovery
and Of occupation, but by the frmans of the
IniiAn potentates, by European treaties. and
by the solemn guarantee of the Pope. No
amount of conoiliation or moderation on tbs
part of the British adventures could legiti-
Matte the English position in the opinion of
their Portuguese rivals. While the Dutch
traders in the East are merely styled
"rebeldes" in the Indo-P Portuguese records,
IS they were in rebellion to the King of Spain,
who at that time also ruled Portugal, the
English were stigmatized as "piratas." This
old designation has popularity chung to MS IN
Portugal long after It's origin was forgotten,
and during The strained relations between
England and Lisbon last year the term
t'piratas" was revived towards the English
by the Lisbon populacc. It was also applied,
says Mr.. Dauvers, to the English so%vereigns,
which constitute the principal gold currency
in Portugal. II is only justice to add that
the English captains usually carried orders
to avoid conflicts with the Portuguese, and
that they were constantly compelled to break
those orders by hostilities which, as British
sailors, they maintained we're forced upon
them. Our victory over the Poi ugueSe ships
at swally, of which Mr.. Danvers gives all in
terestingt account, soon showed that the
''piFasas' were to be the real masters of the
ves.olR was In vain that the Portuguese
Viceroy denounced US as "~thieves. disturbers
OF Esstes, and q people not to be permitted in
q common wealth. 40
Ths records oited by Mr.. Danvers present
q striking picture of the downfall Of the Por-
tnguese power in India. The admirals and
viceToys and other higb-sounding Office rs from
Lisbon had not only to face the dogged de-
termination OF the Dutch ''rebt ldes" and the
English ''piratas" to establish factories in

STAND FROM UNDER.

ave learn of several subs of the
Non-Citizens' Protective League of
the Indian Territory that have been
or are about to be organized since
the initial organization was made at
Cheek. That is right. The non-citi-
zen must not be caught mapping
when allotment comes and it be-
hooves them to unite in a way that
their rights and equities will be
strongly presented to congress and
the commission. Somebody in every
neighborhood should take it upon
themselves to see that sub is organ
lied there at once. Don't wait for
someone else to act."--Chieftain.
"Oh, consistency thou art jewclry
shop" While the Chieftain opposes
the Ardmoreite's position on prepa-
ration and protection, it advocates
the same prin ciple, when it comes to
it's own selfish interests. If it is
right in the one instance can any fair
minded man say that it is not right
in the other? If the views and theo-
ries fer which the Chieftain is bat
tling are right, why not apply them
to Ardmore, as the beginning and
foundation of those theories put into
somekind of form and practical
shape? This comparison is certainly
too pertinent to be either ignored
by the Chiettaln or snubbed as
"Kangarooish."

OPERA HOUSE.

The opera house was again
crowded last night to see "Tha
Buckeye" by the Jennie Holman
company. The play is comedy,
and is quite entertaining Through
out. The characters We're all we'll
represented. Otto 81. Krause as
Jonathan Strong and Miss Olive
Grove as Aunt Betsy were especial
ly good and they received the
most hearty recognition. Jennie
Holman as Mary Jane and j. Har-
vey Cooke as Walter Walling
acted well their parts, as in fact
did the support throughout. Taken
all in all, "The Buckeye" was a
success.
Thg attraction announced for to-
night is a double comedy act,
"Whose Wife Was She p and con-
cluding with a laughable farce
"Oousin Joe."

Oklahoma. His personal expert
ence is far from the history and
the facts.
In the early days of Oklahoma
provisional city governments were
formed in the larger places imme-
diately after the opening and
while they were lacking in legal
authority they were made effective
to all intents and purposes, and
but for which a state of munic-
ipal affairs would haye existed
which it would have taken years
to correct after formal and legal
city government had been insti-
tuted. Moral suasion prevailed
there. The people went so far as
to elect mayors, councilmen, peace
officers, etc. Laws having the
moral sanction of the people were
enacted and put in force. If such
was the case in the midst of chaotic
confusion and disorderly conduct
incident to that unparalleled occa-
sion, why should it not prove sue
cessful in the permanently estab-
lished city OF ArdmOre2

STAND BACK!

When our forefathers fought for
the privilege of the people to follow
them in generations to come it was
done so with the hope and desire that
their posterity would at least hold
inviolate and sacred those fundamen-
tai principles upon which their judg
ment was based when they made the
noble and victorious contest against
fyranical and oppressive methods.
When a man secs fit to criticise a
form of government operated and
controlled by few men to promote
selfish ends, it is high time a halt
was called, and if those who have the
manipula: zion of this Chickasaw gov
eminent in their vest pockets would
give this matter due consideration,
they would, if they are at all
wise, 60 slow on the "intrud-
er" question. Non-citizens can
lawfully be elected for intrusion by
the Chickasaw government when the
facts are truthfully reported to Uncle
Sam, but this thing of prosecuting a
man because he dares express him.
self in behalf of civilization and
progression will not work, and the
sooner some people in this country
find it out the better off they
will find themselves. This ''fn-
truder" bludgeon has been welded
too often in the past by the persecut-
ing hands of disgruntled jobbers.
This country has taken step or. two
forward, remember, in the last few
years, and the people who have
taken those steps propose to see that
the Chickasaw laws, as well as those
of the United States, are rigidly en-
forced. Mr.. r. w. McAdams and w.
A. T.edbetter have not transgressed
against the laws of the Chickasaw
Nation, but are law abiding nOn-citi-
zens and all they ask is fair play.

as a citizen, and the people generally
believe his son was unjustly convict

his release.

KANGAROO.

The Ardmoreite's scheme for a
Kangaroo city government has
one fatal defect-lt would not
work. The editor of the Chieftain
went through the provisional gov
ernmenr farce in Oklahoma City
before the territorial government
was established, and wants no
further experience of the kind -
Chieftain-
Each state is separate govern
ment within government. The
majority of the citizens of Ard
more look to and expect prOtec-
ton Of some kind from the lead
ing citizens Of Ardmore. There is
an inherent OF unwritten law of
nature which makes this quite
natural. All races, tribes, and
nations have ever respected this
law. While no property is owned
in fee simple in Ardmore, yet
would the Chieftain 60 sink a we'll
within s or 10 feet Of Whiting
toms store and feel justified in the
premises?
The Creek nation owns its prop
erty in common. No one will go
near another's farm to cut timber
of any kind without first gaining
permission Of the occupants. In
cases of this kind there must be
some leaders or head to con-
suit. All corporations, syn
dicates or municipal governments
must first have a start or begin
ming point of some kind. After
the first foundations are laid they
deepen and grow stronger:
They are at first respected by the
better class Of citizens who cOnsti-
tUte them Afterwards they
grow to be respected by other
forms Of government they sustain
relationship toward. Does the
Chieftain mean to say that MasOns,
Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythiae,
the Catholic church, or any other
body of intelligent citizens banded
together for each Others good and
benefit are KangaroOs? We hope
and believe the Chieftain, after
more deliberate and mature
thought, will recind its posi- ion,
Or at least modify it's language in
upon SO vital and impot-
tant matter in connection With
the best interests Of Ardmore.
Does the Chieftain mean to say
that all the leading citizens of
tNs city, who have 50 freely ex-
dressed themselves as favOrably
disposed to the ARDMoREITE's
position, are kangaroos, or acting
without either sense, discretion,
ogic; law and reasOnP We do
not believe it does. We believe
hat the able and conscientious
gentleman who edits the Chieftain
has failed to give this matter the
serious weight and Thought ii SO
ustly demands.
