The funGsnentai difference IL in

The Democratic party mas always

The Democratic party does not be-
lieve in buying cheap glory for Of

in paying big salaries and going to

It believes that the greatest digni-
ty is consistent with simplicity and
economy.
This desire 10 have the county,

makes high taxes.
instead OF being the servant of the
people the imperial tendancy is to

STATEHOOD.
(Pawnee Dlspatch)

Governor Ferguson said in his
speech at the Pawnee reunion last
week that he was aching for an OPP
portunity to have his job as governor
taken away from him; that he want
ed statehood for Oklahoma. The gov
ernor was perhaps a little enthusias-
tic when he said that, and it is quite
probable that his sentiment will not
be shared by the majority OF the
federal office holders in the territory.
Nobody doubts that the type o.. self
sacrificing statesman who asked lib
erty or death is woefully absent in
the ranks Of federal grafters who
fill the territorial offices in Oklahoma.
II is ridiculous to assert that the
federal office holders of Oklahoma
want statehood. They do not want II.
because they know that if they get it
their jobs will disappear cs soon as
Oklahoma becomes a state, and from
their regulations IN the past ii is not
TO be presumed that they are willing
to give up anything Their picking
has been fat, and they are not going
to be pulled loose without a struggle.
The Republican party of Oklahoma
is run by federal Office holders and
their wishes will be consulted by
Republican delegate to congress, II
Oklahoma wants statehood, the peo-
pie will send a man to Washington
who will work for statehood, and not
merely dodge about and introduce
fake bills TO deceive the people while
at the same time he Is doing every
thing in his power to defeat the end
he pretends to be- working for. If
you want statehood, send Bill Cross
to congress; he will work for the peo-
PIE of Oklahoma and not in the inter
ests OF the federal office holders

AN ourRAee ON LEssEEs.


The lessees on -ections 16 and SO
are not given an equal show with
those on sections 13 and 80 under
the terms Of the omnibus bin.
This unjust discrimination is strong
ly resented by Iessees on sections 16
and SO and Mcclure, who has cham
pioned that bin will hear from them
Under section 8, fessees Of 16 and
SO win get no protection whatever
for heir improvements and the legis-
lature of the future state is not au-
thorlzed to give them any protection
for their improvements.
The difference. it will be observed
from reading the two sections, is that,
in p. .oviding for the sale Of the col.
lege and public building lands in sec
tion 10 Of the bill, they are when
SOLD to be disposed of at public sale
as the legislature may Preseribe;" but
in section 9 of the bill. which pro-
vides for the sale of common school
sections, the phrase as the legisla-
ture may prescribe is omitted, there
by taking from the legislature any
power to protect the lessees in their
improvements, save such consolation
as they may obtain by their prefer
ence right to take the land at the
highest bid offered at the public sale,
regardless of their improvements.
This is a serious matter for men
who live on sections 16 and SO and
who have their homes there and the
results Of thirteen years hard labor
at stake.
The matter Is not one that involves
any party principles and ought not to
be so considered. but the Republican
candidate. the Hon. Bird Mcguire, has
seen NJ TO champion this bill with
these iniquitous provisions and de-
clare that a vote for him was a vote
for this statehood bill and has made
this the sole issue OF his campaign
for delegate to congress.
How any lessee on sections l6 and
36 can see his way clear TO support
Mr. Mcclure and the bin to which he
has pledged his support and which he
declares will pass at this session Of
congress II he is elected, Is a mat
ter difficult to conceive Nor Will
other men willingly see this grievous
wrong inflicted on these lesseesg lf17
Mr. Mcclure can not possibly hope
TO win with such milestone about
his neck. nor does he deserve to win.
for a man, who would champion such
an act as this. is either lacking ia a
sen of justice or too careless TO in
vestigate a cause before he makes IL
his sole issue and in either event not
a man whom the people can trust in
so important a place as delegate.
These are not mere statements Of
opinion but provi1ions Of the bin that
any man can read for himself.
The following are the sections Of
the omnibus statehood bin containing
the provisions referred to.
Sec. 9. That said sections sixteen
and ihirtysix. and lands taken IN lieu
thereof herein granted for the sup
port OF the common schools. shall be

There is no doubt of the fact that
a very large element of the thinking
men Of the Republican party have
come to the conclusion thas the Demo
cratic contention upon the subject of a
tariff is right. They, with the Demo
Gratis, believe the time has comelwhen
tariff reform should not be delayed
and while they are still Republicans
they regard this question as all para
mount and IL the party they have so
long adhered to and love 50 well heed
the voice of the trust barons rather
than their cry for relief, they will file
their protest on the 4th of November
in way that il will understand the
rebuke. They are at last awakened
to the fact that the Dingley tariff is
the father--the creator-of the enorm-
GUS trust monopolies and are main
tanned bs it, and that those monopo-
lies feed upon their substance, and
they have jusf awakened to the fur
ther fact9that the only way to destroy
these evils is to revise the tariff,
which gave birth to them and this
awakening to a great national issue
is the pressage OF defeat of the Repub-
lican party at the November election
and the triumph OF the Democratic
