Another solution, and an extraordi-
nary one, has been offered for the negro
problem of the south. Bishop Gaines of
the African Methodist church presents
the solution. In brief it is that the
American negro is gradually undergoing
the process known to the colored race
itself as turning white" He says the
black blood in this country is gradually
being absorbed by the white through
the not at all creditable process of ANAL
gamation. For instance, there are 8. 000,-
900 people of colored blood in tie
Union. Of these only 1000, 900 are
pure black. The rest all have more or
less white blood in their veins. This is
not the fault of the negro, but Of the
white man Bishop Gaines believes that
the process will go on till there are no
more negroes in America. The race
will be .'Caucasianized. There is no
need, says Bishop Gaines, to COLOMBO
American negroes in Africa or any
where else. The race is being bleached
out. A few generations more will see
the disappearance Of the pure black
type. This view of the case is COM
mended 20 whom it may concern.

Oklahoma.

The boomers who planted their stand.
ard in Oklahoma eight years ago planned
for the future better than even their N
thusiastic souls dreamed. No part of
the Union, not even California, has
more agri%culturally than this
splendid young boomerland. Agricul-
turally it seems to be a region where
north and south meet and mingle har-
moniously. Cotton will grow luxuri
antly. So will wheat, as well as in
Canada. Guthrie, the capital Of the
territory, is situated in Logan county.
In this county the present season a
farmer has raised a wheat crop from 65
acres that, at 81 a bushel. will bring
him 81. $50. 1t averaged 80 bushels to
the acre. A farm of 200 acres in the
older states that returned $3.50 from
all its sales, grain, dairy. live stock,
poultry, fruit and everything else,
would be considered u perfect Klondike
From Mulhall, a little town in Logan
county, were shipped this season 1000
carloads Of live stock.
" The nineteenth century citizen tames
nature by great leaps and bounds. A
child can remember the boom rush to
Oklahoma. Now smiling orchards. gar
dens, waving grainfields and the music
of buzzing bee and grain reaper, the
lowing Of herds, greet the ear Of the
traveller. while his eye looks upon u
people as peaceful, orderly and intelli-
gent, as we'll equipped with the COM
forts of civilization, as any in the older
states
Oklahoma is the paradise of the
farmer. the gardener, the fruit grower
and the live stock man. 1t is this year
as prosperous as Kansas.

THE COLORADOAN.

All newcomers to Colorado are i'm
pressed with the restless spirit OF the
people here, their ambition to obtain po-
sition or wealth IN a hurry, and their
consequent rustling qualities. There is
enterprise and progress in the air, a
buoyancy of spirit that urges them on
and makes them dissatisfied with grad
ual advance in the material things OF
tn is world.
The state is full OF opportunities; it
has unbounded resources to be devel
oped tickle Fortune is knocking at ev
srybody's door, and 80 the citizens OF
this great common wealth are walking
about on stills. as it were. Just so long
as these conditions exist, just so long as
progress is the byword, and opportuni
ties present themselves, why, Just so
long will people be discontepted with II
gait that would be hot pace for an
eastern man. The westerner must go
on gallop or not go at all.
Being in the midst Of unbounded re-
sources the average Coloradoan becomes
a plunger and aust make stake or
lose all. He is continually scheming
how best TO to make dollar without
working hard for it, and then how to in
vest it so it will come back to him with
ten others. Thus he keeps himself
strung up to certain degree of excite
ment, and his push and hurry is impart-
cd to others until the thing becomes con
tageous, and is even spread among the
tenderfeet who invade the sacred realms
OF the region OF the Rockies
1t is no use to counsel the Colorado
an to go slow; to make sure of what he
has before he reaches out after more;
he may listen to the advice, and then he
is off again in his old speculative haunts
studying up some new, enchanting
scheme.
There is no one else in all the world
quite like tho Coloradoan.

PRESIDENT Boyce OF the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners made good remark
before the Pueblo Trades Assembly,
Thursday night. He said that sin the
east at the last meeting of the American
Federation of Labor there was too much
talk about trades unions, union labels
and boycotts' He advocated that la
boring men should seek something that
would do them permanent good, as by
legislation, for instance. Mr.. Boyco is
correct. This talk about boycotts is
un-American and gets the public down
on those who resort to it. Besides, in
the carrying out of it the nuisance
known as the professional agitator gets
in his work, and the whole organization
is harmed. The label tag is only a
species of boycottism, also. As Mr..
Boyce says, the remedy OF the working
man lies in legislation, and it is his fault
il he docs not vote right.
