A Boom for M. A, Low.

A special dispatch from South Nc.
Alester, !. T., has aroused the suspi,-
ion that ii was inspired by friends of
NJ A. Low of Kansas. The article is
peculiar in its phraseology and built
up step by step in an adroil manne,.

sapine possession OF Kansas po'iti.
clans, and is not an undesirable place
to get out 'feelers" for political
booms. The article is as follows:
1T has been admitted time and
time again, that the Hon. NJ. A. Low.
of Topeka, Kan, general attorney for
the Rock Island railway system is
one of the brainiest and most infiu.
ential politicians in the United States

ment. It now remains to be secl
whether New England is strong cough
to align the Republican party against
all other sections of the Union as ii
has done in the past.
President Roosevelt's clUseness OF
touch with the people of the West
should be a notable factor in this trial
OF strength If the new prcsi lent sees
ft to declare for the tariff reduction
he may consistently deny that
he thereby abandons the McKinlev
policy. He may claim instead that he
is but carrying out the new Mckinley
policy. which was, at least in favor
of reciprocity treaties amounting in
effect to tariff reduction The stu
alton is interesting. It is so interest
ing, indeed, as to place the tariff is
sue among the foremost issues now
before the country.

II is a waste OF time to look for a
pathway leading to statehood which
avoids the Indian Territory stumbling
block. II the bill which is pust ed in
congress provides Tor statehood for
Oklahoma alone, a strong following of
single statehood advocates among the
nations lawmakers will seek to
amend it so as TO add the Indian Terri
tory. If the bill provides for the un-
ion OF the two Territories into one
State, the double statehood advocates
will seek to amend In either case
the minority will be sufficiently pow
erful to cause exasperating delay. says
Times-Journal.
II is our opinion that the question
OF which plan will bring results the
quickest may as well be eliminated
and all discussion based upon the
question of lasting benefits. Eliminating
politics and the question of time to
accomplish the desired transforms
ton, which plan will bring most
benefits to the state or states? viii
Oklahoma be more prosperous, its
people more contented, and it's public
institutions more economically man
aged with or without union with the
Indian Territory? Can commerce be
more advantageously handled with
one or with two States? If the State
could control the price of carrying
coal from mines of the Indian Terri
tory to the shops and homes of Okla
homa, and of the breadstuffs from the
plains of Oklahoma to the mines and
great foundries of the Indian Terri.
tory would any advantages be gain
ed by its citizens? Is State or inter
state commerce more readily con
trolled by interested parties?
These are pertinent questions that
the Two Territories must discuss in
a dispassionate and business like
manner.

A TEST OF STRENGTH.

In the event of Western sentiment
within the ranks of the Republican
party compelling a new consideration
OF the high protective tariff question
by congress, the fact may be taken as
indicating that the dominance of New
England In Republican councils is
drawing 70 a close, says the Republic
The issue between the Republicans
of the West and those OF New Eng
land is very distinct on this ques-
ton. The West is weary OF paying
the tariff tax and of suffering from
foreign discrimination against its
products, caused by resentment { the
tariff. New England, Of course. is
eager for the maintenance of the
present tariff schedule. Il has grown
rich at the expense of the rest Of this
country through the operations of the
tariff.
There will be a profound interest
attached TO the inevitable test of
strength between Western and East.
ern Republicans on the tari I issue. II
is a general belief that IN West is
now strong enough to insist potently
upon consideration of its wishes
which IT has heretofore failed to re.
ceive from the Republican party
There is also reason 10 believe that
the late President Mckinley was
strongly inclined toward tarin reduc
tion as demanded by Western scrti.
