THE LAND SHARK
AFTER INDIAN LEASES.

As is usual in this part OF the coun.
try the land grabber is seeking to
get in his work early, in the Greek
nation.
Leases made in complicated terms
not well understood by the indians
are being resorted to with the result
that in many cases the Indian practic-
ally agrees to sell his land. when the
law win permit and give the lessee
credit for his improvements.
The scheme Is very ingenius and
has been often worked both in private
and public lands or course. at the
end of the time, the Improvements
win be charged up at such a rate as
to leave the poor Indian bare pit
tance for his land
During the first few years the sec
retary of the interior should maintain
careful supervision of the leases as
he is authorized to do an dshould have
a reliable special agent on the ground.
After few years the pressure of
land sharks will not be so great and
reliable, actual bona fde lessees will
readily take all they can got and pay
good prices.
In these Indian leases it ought TO
be clearly provided that at the expir-
alton Of the leases. the land would be
turned over TO the Indians clear and
free on any encumbrance OF any sl1ind
or character whatever.
When the school lands of old okla
homa and the Cherokee Strip and
other reservations We're first offered
for lease. the land shark was on hand
in all his varied forms, but by care
ful MANAGEMENT his fine Italian hand
was generally discovered and the
lands placed in the hands of actual.

We give the average Republican cred
it for being honest on the statehood
question. They actually believe that
the leaders of their party favor inn
mediate statehood for Oklahoma, but
they don't. It wouldn't be policy for
Republican congress to admit a
Democratic state and at the same
time throw the numerous Office hold
ing Republicans of the territory out
of their jobs, and more of il is that
the leaders of that party won't stand
for any such deal If Oklahoma
wants statehood she viii have to
look to the Democrats for it.

coNvIcTs ON ROADS,

The recent TaAas Democratic con
Ivention put into its platform de
mand for the employment Of convict
labor on the public roads.
A reform of this kind has been ad-
vocated, more or less, in nearly every
state Of the south where both the pen
itentiary problem and the road ques-
tion have given much trouble. It
would have been a great thing for
Georgia If the able bodied convicts
who are now leased to companies and
private parties had been put to work
upon the highways Of the state.
This could have been done, and still
there would have been enough left for
convict farm to pay the expenses of
the states road force
Mississippi's experience with her
penitentiary farms is an ample just
fication of this estimate.
Every state and the majority OF
counties in every state Of the south
are moving distinctly forward in the
matter of road improvement
The counties have gained much by
working their misdemeanor convicts
on the public roads. The superb ebert
roadway which traverses almost the
entire length of Fulton county, except
the distance through the city Of At
lanta, wa, built by convict labor, and
the county could not have disposed Of
its convict labor as advantageously in
any other way.
Many other counties in Georgia are
reaping like benefits from the labor
of their own misdemeanor convicts or
those that they hire from other coun-
ties.
The marked improvement of public
roads in every section of this state is
due largely to the use of convicts in
road work.
Il is uncertain whether the Texas
legislature will enact such a law as
the recent Democratic convention in
that state called for, but we are quite
sure that would be more beneficial to
the state We would like to see some
southern state put its entire available
convict force to work on it's public
roads for 20 years
The results would, We believe. with
in one-fourth of that time convince
other states of the wisdom and profits
of the policy and insure such an era
of road improvement in the south as
has never been dreamed of, one that
would add hundreds Of millions to the
value OF the lands and their crops in
this section.-Atlanta Constitution.

Ralston Free Press: The Republi-
can press and public speakers of the
territory are telling us that we must
vote the Republican ticket in order
to secure statehood. They even make
the threat that II we don't elect q
Republican delegate we will not get
statehood. But say. Mn Voter, be in
dependent, yet honest in this matter.
The Republicans have for the past
six years promised us statehood and
have all this time had the power in
their hands to give y to US. But the
records show that when the matter
has come up in the house and in the
senate the Republicans have, with few
exceptions, thrown cold water on
statehood by voting against it, while
the Democrats have talked, worked
and voted, in good faith, to secure the
passage Of a bill granting the same.
The real facts are that the Republ:-
cans do not want to admit the terri
tories, believing they will be Demo
cratic states. There is no necessity
in being deceived in this matter. It's
plain proposition If the Republi-
cans in congress and senate vote
against statehood land the records
show that they have done so in the
pasD and the Democratic members
OF both houses vote and work for it,,
It is plainly the duty of every voter
who favors statehood fer the territor-
les TO use his best efforts for the
election of Democrats to congress and
not Republicans. In the territory it is
policy to send the Democratic nomi-
nee to congress. While he, OF course,
has not vote he will use his influence
10 secure votes for the measure.
