REPUBLICAN OKLAHOMA STATE.

Next oMnday the Republicans of
Oklahoma get together at Enid for the
purpose of comparing notes on local
issues, the needs of the territory. the
ambitions of the territorial statesmen,
and the interests of Oklahoma in con-
junction with the policies of the ma
tional party.
Oklahoma proper is Republican. The
country has already fallen into. the
habit Of viewing the Indian Territory
as part of Oklahoma, which it is not,
but which it will undoubtedly become
when Oklahoma becomes a state, all
fears an controversies Of political eX-
igencies to the contrary notwithstand-
inS. The Indian Territory is made
up of Democrats, Texas and Arkansas
and southern Democrats who cling
frantically to that party despite its
eggregious blunders nationally, and its
cOntemptuouS treatment of the citizens
of the Indian Territory locally.
But Oklahoma, with the Indian Ter
ritory added, will be Republican
state. 1t cannot be made state with
out Republican aid. Oklahoma proper
was originally opened and assisted in
settlement by a Republican president
and it will be admitted as a state bv
such. President Harrison and Sec
retary OF the Interior Noble conducted
the affairs of the Indian Territory and
Oklahoma in manner acceptable TO
all. There was no disgusting scan
dalS. no booth outra ges, no certificates
boOdling. no sell-outs of cattle leases
such as there has been under the pres
ent administration and such as con-
tinue today in high-handed contempt
of all charges of bo0dling and indie
cency.
The Democratic party is not he party
OF progress either in an economical,
commercial, or pioneer sense. The
Democratic party has no sympathy for
the piainsman and the pioneer of Okla
homa or the struggling nonresident
settlers of the Indian Territory. CIeve-
land and Hoke Smith are against
these people. although in the Indian
Territory a majority Of the people are
probably Democrats. Continued diSre-
gard of the peoples rights and privi-
legeS. continued evidences of national
corruption in the conduct of Indian
Territory affairs will work a reaction.
The HornbeckS. and Adams and Hum.
phreyS of the Indian Territory will
not endure the inSolence Of the M
tional Democratic party forever. Some
day there Will be Il break and these
men with their large following will
come into the Republican camp where
they belong.
With them the whole Indian Terri
tory VIII change and he a part OF the
Republican state of Oklahoma. and
together the part Of a Republican
nation. stimulated by national Republic

can economies, protected by Republi-
can honesty, part Of the progressive

JAPAN INUNDATED.

There is a lull in the East since
Japan was forced by Russia to yield
the fruits of her victory over China.
The bear in st. Petersburg tumbles
over himself in glee that France and
Germany stood at his back in his self
fish demand that the brave Japs should
withdraw Lioa-Tong and give up Port
Arthur. Upon extorting these sacri-
fees from Japan the protesting powers,
in their magnanimity, will permit her
to extort by way of compensation a
larger money indemnity from impover-
ished China. In its feeble financial
condition the Chinese government
would have found it more convenient
TO give up section of territory to
increasing the money indemnity. But
this did not serve the purpose of
Russia, whose greedy eyes have long
been fixed upon the LiaoToDg penin-
sula. So China must pay for the sac
rifices made by Japan at the dictation
Of Russia and her complaisant allies
Of Germany and France.
So far as the civilized world is con-
cerned it has no interest in the success
of Russian policy in the East at the
expense of Japan. In fact. Japan is 4
more liberal and progressive govern
ment than Russia. Japanese talent for
organization would not have been long
in opening the seapOrts Of Manchuria
to commerce, in extending railroads
into the interior and in awakening II.
energies of people who NATE Deen
sunk for centuries in slumber. On the
other hand, Russian military Occu-
pancy of that region would afford little
promise of its industrial development
and progress in civilization. For this
reason the world at large can have no
genuine sympathy with the rejOicings
in st. Petersburg over the latest
triumph which Russian diplomacy has
wrested from the dread Of her military
power.

working Up a CIImar.

As he entered the barber shop Che was
a prominent official of the Duluth road,
very prominent, so near the top that he
might be described as the top itself, he
sat down IN the chair and the barber
went to work on his we'll domed poll.
The barber was a cheerful man, fond
of social intercourse and rather prided
himself on his powers as a conversation
ist. So when he felt the head Of the
Duluth official with his taper fingers, he
thought he would astonish and please
him with some conversation and per
haps the official would in turn write out
ten years pass on a piece of shaving
soap.
So the barber was light and merry,
learned and philosophical by turns, and
was well pleased with the expression
that stole over the officials face, so full
OF appreciation was it. He knew that he
would handle pour boire of a quarter,
if he did not get the pass he was de-
termined to please, and when the official
asked him if he had any cotton handy
the barber said he thought he had He

THE streets of Ardmore are sim
ply awful in their muddy condi-
tion. That they are so is not
wholly the fault of our people,
but to a certain extent they are
not blameless. By a little ditch
ing and filling in the lakes of wat :

not only a source of incOnven-
fence, but are necessarily a men
ace to the health of the people.
If something is not done to relieve
the condition at present existing,
an epidemic is almost sure to fol-
low. Already deleterious effects
are being felt. We are aware
that the rush of building accounts
in part for the accumulatiOns of
rubbish along Main, Springer and
Caddo streets, but this is not a
sufficient excuse for the mud
holes and cesspOols that are so
frequently run into along those
thoroughfares. The ARDMOREITE
believes that we should pay a little
more attention to health and the
only way this can be done is to
clean up the alleys and streets,
taking especial care that the mud
holes are filed up.

AS often before stated the ARD
MoREITE is not responsible for the
views of its cor espondents. The
reply of +. TecumSeh Waite to
the Purcell Register simply states
the views of the tier and it is
given space through a spirit of
fairness. Our views on the town
site question do not harmoDize
with those of Mr.. Waite, but it
will be time enough TO contend
for right and justice in the settle
ment of that question when town
sites are moe nearly a realty.
Our idea of that matter is to first
procure a townsite t-eaty and then
trust to the fairness of both our
national law makers and the In

erty rights.

THE BULL NO 5sE.

Am Adventure with One OF Thoss AuiunAIa
When It Hunted the naae~r.
A correspondent writing from Aecu-
noma, Muskoka, gives an Interesting 40
count Of an adventure which 10 had
with moose while employed in making
a toboggan trail through one OF the pine
forests in that section Of the country.
While engaged at work he came across n
moose yard and ON looking around saw
one of the "giants OF the forest" about
so yards distant The story Of his en-
counter is perhaps best told In the cor
respondents own words:
AFTER a moment" he writes, 1.-THE
moose turned and walked behind hill,
which. though not high, was steep.
ran to the top with all speed, hoping 10
get view Of the lordiy creature as he
made his way through the bush 1 could
not see him at first, but ON looking down
the steep incline there he was, not ten
yards away. He turned to make of, but
striking his ribs against the projecting
limb of a small hemlock he was thrown
down and around the tree, and as he
rose he faced me. It was now my turn
to run, for the moose charged at me
with erected name, expressing his rage
by fierce below. In turning I STUN
bled, the ground being very uneven, and
his feet nearly came down on me as
lodged among some trees I tried to
strike with my hatchet, the only weapon
had. but did not succeed in injuriug
my pursuer. With some difficulty at
last got out into the deep snow where
my snowshoes were Of more use to me.
The moose still pursued me, roaring at
intervals, and one who has not heard o
moose roar can form but little idea Of
the terrible believing noise. After sew
eral attempts to strike me with his front
feet he balked and stood about 20 yards
away paving and roaring. I eagerly
seized this opportunity to climb tree,
and soon after the animal turned and
made of. OF all my adventures in the
bush, and they number n few, the one
