THE ONLY WAY.

The affairs of the city demand and
deserve much of our time and many
of our best thoughts but there Is other
legislation that concerns the people OF
The entire territory, which must no
he neglected. 1he last named legisla-
tion. which II 1t gives Us full justic@
will clear-up many municipal ques-
tlons and will result in the full devci-
opment of our towns and win work
changes with regard TO agricultural
lands that will be welcomed by every
farmer in the country. In THIS we
have reference TO national Legislation,
and the paramount question rs he
method of securing proper Legislation
The best method TO begin our cam
paign with for the approaching ses-
sion of congress, is TO unite the efforts
of the two great political parties by
having the national committeeman 10
issue a Joint call for a convention to
be held at an early date and at some
convenient place for the sole discus
sion of the matter of securing a dele
gate in congress. Let these two state
ments be made clearly in the call. Cd
the basis of representation and (s)
that this method Of securing the dele
gate will be discussed to the exclusion
Of all other questions.
From former experiences we find
that but very little good has ever re-
suited from the labors of special re.
representatives. OF lobbyists sent from
different sections of the country to
the national capitol. The resources,
the wealth, the population, the neglect
ed children of the Indian Territory en-
title US to serious consideration at The
hands of the national congress, and
that body stands ready and willing to
give us any and all needed Legislation
when once they understand our needs
and the proper legislation is pointed
out to them. In this we must have the
aid of delegate who stands as the
representative of the entire people
and of no particular section of country
Being clothed with the oficial position
entities him to respect among the leg
islators and removes from him the Sis
picion that he represents the interests
of some corporation which has always
stood between our special representa-
tlves and effective Work. One united
effort will break down former barriers
and will result in great good, early in
the session at which time the tern.
tories will be before the house for dis
cussion. It is only few short busy
months until congress convenes and If
we would have q delegate let action
be taken at once along the methods
outlined above.

An indictment is not a conviction
but It is a step in the direction OF con-
yiction. To that extent the action of
Virginia grand jury is commendable.

far 1t has found only three men :. no
took part in the lynching, though
there were hundreds in the mob,
which did their work in the daylight

concealment. II nothing more is done
We have at least an evidence of good
intentions.

An extra session of the senate will
be limited TO the consideration of a
treaty of reciprocity with Cuba, The
senate can make a treaty without the
house OF representatives, but It can
not engage in any legislation without
the presence OF that body. Since the
destruction of several Republican con.
gressmen who were candidates for re-
nomination, because of their activity
against the reciprocity treaty, It is
probable that the senate will lead"
more readily than It did before its late
adjournment
