American citizens in the Indian Terr'~
tory, aside from the $4,000 Indians.
These American citizens could at once
assume the duties and enjoy the felici-
ties of citizenship IL that country were
thrown under state government.
1.-THE Indians could own the lands
as the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians
in Western Oklahoma now own the
best lands in the country, and not in
terrupt the exercise of civil governs
ment for the citizen. The pretexts Of
agreements with the Dawes commits
sion as an obstacle to statehood over
that country is sham. 1t is wanted
as an excuse for opposing single state
hood in the anxiety Of the senatorial
aspirants to reach the bent of their
ambitions bJ the erection of q small
state, where the importation Of few
more negroes may change the political
complexion of the state.
"In line with his ulterior purpose to
make a state where the negro voter
may WELD a dominating influence,
Flynn says, in ar rswer to the demands
of Democracy that the Filipiros be
given the:r freedom That sounds
nice, but if we should do that 10000
or $4,000 miles away from home, why
isn't it good doctrine to do the same
thing down in the Southern state of
4. N. l. j
there the other day and by majority
of so, 600 they undertook to violate the
constitutional amendment which gave
the colored men the right to vote, but
they tell Us in the philippines we are
murderers because we do not give
them government for then selves
and by themselves, They ought not
to GO so far from home with their ad-
vice. Come home and practice little
of it in this country
North Carolina belongs to that
race of mankind which in all ages has
led in every land where civil govern
ment has found seat, and science, art
and Christianity have gained foot
hold and raised humanity from bar
barism to kno wledge and apprecia-
tiou of civil liberty. 1t was settled by
aud established for that race and be-
longs to it; and any white man who
pretends that black men shall domi-
nate these states, or any of them, as
conditions now are or may ever be.
places himself upon platform where
politics is higher than humanity, and
deserves the Just rebuke OF every
Democrat in the land. The negro of
North Carolina has refused and con-
tinues to refuse to accept the require
ments essential to an exercise of the
privileges OF civil liberty, and will re-
main lndigent and ignorant while it Is
possible to live to his peculiar taste
and satisfaction without particular
effort to development. The voters of
North Carolina passed a constitutions
provision making educational qualif-
cations for the elective franchise. They
had right to pass it. Self-protection
demanded it, and nothing can be in
ferred from Mr.. Flynn's allusion to the
matter but that he favors negro DOM
ination, if necessary, to carry political
ends"

SIX COUNTS.

In his speech at indianapolis Mr.
Bryan undoubtedly proved these six
charges against the Repr blicsn party;
that it is
Controlled by the money power,
With England in the var against
the South African republics.
With imperial am Oitions for con-
quest and vast standing army.
Wholly unfriendly to the working
classes.
Aristocratic in all its principles.
In favor of the wealthy few as
against the poverty stricken many.
These charges are unanswered and
will remain unanswered on election
day.

Let County Records be Shown

Let County Records be Shown.
Whereas, There was intro
duced in the late Repu blican
county convention which met
in Guthrie and nominated a
ticket to be voted for this fall
by the people of this county,
a resolution demanding an i'm
vestigation of the records of
this county, and pledging the
county commissioners to order
such investigation; and
Whereas, Such resolution was
by such CONVEX tion DENIED,
both by the resolutions COM
mittee and by the convention
itself; and
Whereas, We believe the
people of this county have the
right to be shown" the con
dition of the county records,
and that such demand was
just, Now therefore be it
Resolved, in the very Ian
guage of the Republican reso-
luton itself, That the county
commissioners nominated by
this convention, by the ac-
ceptance of said nominations,
pledge themselves individually
and collectively, if elec ed, to
cause a thorough investigation
by competent persons to be
made of the books and records
Of Logan county, to the end
that the taxpayers may know
what has become of the public
moneys and the manner in
which the records have been
kept, and that if any defalca-
tions have occurred, and ex-
cessive and fraudulent charges
have been made and allowed,
the same may be recovered to
the county from the office
holder and his bondsmen.

The Pawhuska journal says that
Beaver Creek which flows through the
Kaw and Usage nations, was named
by the Osages TO commemorate the
fact that they worked like beavers"
in building barricade near the stream
to defend themselves from an expect
ed attack by the Pawnees. This see as
doubtful as Indians seldom take that
point of view in bestowing names.

evening an ideal illustrated lecture on
Yellowstone Park was delivered in Lew

speaking of this event the Lewiston
journal said: His subject is one Of pcr-
ennial interest 10 the travelling Ameri-
can, but il is one especially before the
public at present. as there is much evi-
dence to the fact that the wonderful

His style was graphic with a vein Of
humor throughout. and the bright
touches from his own experience in this
region together with over hundred
beautiful stereopticon slides. many 81

the lecture one of the most interesting
