PLAN TO ELIMINATE
NEGRO DELEGATES.
LATEST ALLEGED SCHEME OF R0OsE
yELTTO CONTROL CONVENTION.
Afraid Negro Delegates Could Not Resist
the temptation Which Is often
Thrown in Their Way.

The delegates from the southern
states are not wanted in the republi'
can national convention of 1901,
saws a Washington dispatch The
systematic elimination of the negro
from the inner councils of the republl-
can party in the south is already syste-
maticallY under way. How far Presl-
dent Roosevelt may be responsible Tor
this cannot stated at this time, but the
movement is being worked by his
friends, and it is apparently directly IN
his interest.
1.-THE presidents friends realize that
his denomination will be opposed by
all the power that the trusts and great
corporations can yield. This will
probably mean that he will have the
east arrayed against him in the con-
vention. He will have to depend on
the south and the west for the votes
to carry him through. The Dresi-
dents friends propose to see to it that
none but trusted Roosevelt men are
sent as delegates from these sections
as far as it is in their power to do
this.
The west has always been the Roose-
welt stronghold, and it is thought that
his attitude on the trust question Will
not hurt him any there. The south,
too, could be depended upon to send
Roosevelt delegates to the convention
without any elimination of the negro
cement, but the question is whether
the negro delegates could be depended
upon to stick if they should arrive IN
the convention city and find themselves
exposed to the peculiar kind of temp
tation" which the trust managers
might throw iu their way.
Peculiar stories have been told in
the past of the inability of the colOre d
delegates to resist temptation of this
kind, and it is said that the presidents
friends believe it their duty TO protect
their colOred brethren from the liabil-
ify of being tempted. At present
there seems to be every reason to be-
iieve that the plan will be successfully
carried out.
Senator Pritchard:of North Caroline,
whose elimination of the negroes from
the North Carolina republican conven-
ton is still fresh in the public mind,
is said to have been selected as the
chief agent for carrying out the pro-
gram of getting white Roosevelt dele
cations from the southern states. 1t
is recognized that there are some
white men in the republican party in
the south who would be as liable tC
yield TO temptation as would the ne
groes. These men, too are to be eli
mainted when it comes to the se1oo.

MATRIMONIAL LEGACY.
Woman Who Died WiIled Her
Husband to Another.

The bare announcement is made
that woman who died recently IN
New York by will left her husband to
another woman who welcomed the leg
acy, the hus band apparently accepting
this disposition of himself, ii not as le-
cal and binding, then as agreeable to
his sentiments. No details are pub
lished, henc2 there is wide field for
conjecture. In the present defective
condition of the statutes the success OF
such bequest depends on the consent
of the widOwer and the woman. In
anv event the latter, like any other
beneficiary of will, must be free to
decline the gift.
The Philadelphia Record suggests
that there are cases, however, in
which the law should compel the wild
over TO follow the course prescribed
by the defunct, and with this view we
heartily agree. When man marries
obviously for money, according TO "a
custom in England and France, he
should be considered the property of
the wife to be matrimonially disposed
of as she may see fit. A legal enact
ment to that effect could not be against
public morals, and as for the feelings
of the widower nobody need care about
them.
Usually there is a good deal of pun
ishment for a man who marries chiefly
for money, but he has put himself be-
yOnd the pale Of human pathy IN
Voluntarily making property of him
self, Property he should remain.

BANKING BOOM
Is SPREADING
IN OKLAHOMA
In Every New Town a State
Bank Is Started.
LAST YEARS BUSINESS
Said TO be the Largest in
Territorial History,

Guthrie. o. r.. June 10.-with the de-
veIoping of the territory and the estab-
fishing OF new towns. comes the opening
of new banks. Oklahoma has never had
as many banks in her thirteen years OF
history as at the present time. and the
end is not in sight Almost every day
there are applications made at the Office
of the secretary of Oklahoma for char
ters for banks to be established in new
towns In many cases these charters
are received before the towns are started
owing to the desire to be frst-and shut
out others figuring on the same propo-
sition.
Along the lines of railroads now being
constructed are many new towns spring
ing up. Charters are taken out Tor banks
In these towns as soon as it is definitely
known when and where the towns viii
be located In certain instances, charters
have been asked for, when the name Of
the towns were not definitely known and
the charters had to be changed, after
they were issued, in order that the arti-
cles of incorporation might be correct.
The capital stock varies between 5000
and $4,000; rarely ever more than the
latter figure. 1t is sometimes increased
if the town grows rapidly and the
amount of business calls for an increase.
The men behind such banks are usually
Oklahoma men. already interested in
banks ard desirous of enlarging their
business.
Almost phenomenal has been the in
crease in the banking business during
the past year Not only is this true of
the new country, but old Oklahoma as
well, and every town in which there is
an opportunity for the establishing of n
successful bank is carefully looked over
by banking men.
These new banks are not run loosely,
but everything is taken into considera-
ton that would at all affect the banks
AS the railroad building con-
tinues the opening Of new banks will
be carried on, and for the length of time
she has been a territory. Oklahoma viii

UNITED STATES
OFFERS SUPPLY
To OKLAHOMA
To be USee for the Care Of
Insane Subjects.
FERGUSON WILL SUBMIT
Proposition to Next Territor-
iaI Legislature for Action.
RESERVATION A BIG ONE
1t Contains 1,740 Acres of
Land and Buildings.
FERGUSON WILL SUBMIT
RESERVATION A BIG ONE

Guthrie, o. T, June IO.-Governor Fer
guson is in receipt of a letter from the
interior department stating that the ter
ritory may have the use Of the grounds
and buildings Of the Tort Supply reserva-
ton, belonging to the government, for
the care of territorial insane. There are
S 100 acres Of land in the reservation and
the buildings are in fair condition. This
proposition Is one that win be placed
before the next territorial legislature. if
It decides TO take up the sanitarium ques-
ton.
Owing TO the fact that the bill which
passed in congress. providing for the re-
apportoning Of the territory. included a
clause which prohibits the legislature
from locating or appropriating for any
public building. the members of this body
may devote their time to other legisls-
tion. including the sanitarium phase. on
the face Of the offer il would seem that
IT is n good one. but when the remoteness
Of Fort Supply is considered, il would
mean a hardship 10 many counties to
place their insane there. The buildings
are twenty-three miles from Woodward
without railway connections and this
means long drive in order to reach
the buildings. What the cost Of fitting
the buildings for use will, be, is another
feature which. after consideration. might
make it very inadvisable to accept the
proposition.
The offer of the interior department
would hold good. if accepted until Okla
homa is made a state, and at that time
she would be in a position TO provide /
for her own buildings, as is the case in /
other states.
The next session of the legislature may /
not be such a tame affair after all. as a /
contract for textbooks wiz come up for |
consideration. In addition 10 this. the /
legislature will probably be called on to 1
settle the free range question, and this /
IS one which viii bring out plenty of 4
argument and consideration. Even if 4
there is no show of public buildings bin 4

tinglished work in legislative halls next /

srvation, and TO sooner had our people
become acquainted with the facts in the
case, than they at once met and decided
10 petition the hoperable secretary to
have the road built TO our town and so
far as we know we have never heard
word from the petition. In the said pc
tition all the reasons for the road to
pass through here were set forth. and
one of the principal reasons was. that
should the road miss Pawhuska a few
miles, that the depreciation in the value
Of the property Of the Usage people would
be be a serious detriment and an unnec-
essary loss. No wwork has begun on the
road and the survey misses this town
six miles or more. and it viii he only a
question Of a short time until grading
viii be under way on the reservation,
and if something IS not done soon the
Csage people Will be the loser by thous-
ands OF dollars.
We believe that the secretary has
the power TO force the road TO pass near
this town and thus prevent this loss.
and we have this to say. that if he has
the power and does not exercise it in the
interest of those people whose property is
in jeopardy. that he is in no wise fit for
the position he holds any more. and that
it proves eonclusively that his only in
