Single Statehood Press Association
Summarizes Territory Condl-

The single statehood press asso-

prepared a memorial for presenta-
ton to congress.
The following eloquent plea for
relief from the existing heinous
conditions, is incorporated in it:
Your attention is called to the
deplorable condition of $4,000
white residents of the Indian ter
ritory, who are denied every guar
antee OF the constitution of the
United States; who have fixed in
terests therein and have been al
lowed by the government of the
United States and with the sane
tion of the federal courts TO make
these investments and should long
since have received some consid-
Grafton at your hands. Their chill
dren are being allowed to grow to
manhood and womanhood in ig.
norance. and consequent crime, for
want OF school facilities. These
peoplelhave courts, which. owing
to their numerical insufliciency
and lack of jurisdiction, are in ef-
feet an absolute denial Of justice.
These people come of the best
Anglo-Saxon blood OF the states
and have been looking to congress
for relief for many years"

SCHOOL FIGHT.
At Sontb r1cAIester Results in At
tack on Home of Rev. J. J.
Lovett.

The trouble occasioned at South
McAlester by several ministers
advocating the appointment OF
none save church attending teach
ers to the public schools, assumed
a serious phase Wednesday night
when the house OF Rev J J. Lovett
was stoned by a crowd of hood
lums.
Mrs. Lovett was prostrated
through fright at the vicious at
tack and suffered severe hemor-
rhage from its effect.
The identity of those engaged in
the cowardly attack has not been
sscertained by the authorities, who
have instituted a searching inves-
tigation.
The trouble over the schools has
been growing in intensity for some
time. While the position assumed
by the ministers on the question OF
enforcing church attendance on
the teachers does not receive the
endorsement Of the citizens gener-
ally. the outbreak of hoodlumism
which eliminated in the attack of
Wednesday night is severely con-
demned.

For Murderers Of oklahoma Deputy

The outlaws who killed Deputy

been traced by the pursuing Of

Governor Ferguson, Of Oklaho-

each, for the arrest OF the men.
and a divided force of three hun
dred men are Oh their trail.
It is suspected that the muir
derers are members Of the Craven
gang, and that Cravens himself is
now leading them 10 their flight.
The local officers are watching
the chase with interest and are
hoping that the gang will attempt
to break back toward their old
haunts in the Usage nation, when
they will take a hand 10 the round

too frequently goes back to the
reservation and falls into the old
custom of letting his hair grow
long. He also paints profusely
and adopts all the old habits and
customs which his education in
our industrial schools has tried to
eradicate.
The fault lies with the condi-
.tlons found on the reservations.
These conditions are very often
due to the policy of the govern
ment toward the La ndian, and are
often perpetuated by the agents
not caring to take the initiative in
fastening any new policy on his
administration of the affairs of the

The Secretary of the Interior
has issued an edict ordering all
Indians 10 submit to an official
hair cut, and to forswear the use
of any colored cosmetics, which do
not blend in pleasing harmony,
with Los natural blush.
The decision of the Secretary
was reached after an exhaustive
study OF the relative influences OF
the missionaries and BARRIERS.
He AYERS, that the shears, have
never received proper recognition
as agents of civilization, and that
the only way to consumate
the civilization OF Lo, is to work
from "without" and not from
within" !"
His reasoning is interesting. He
says that while the ludian cannot
see the mystic evolution, that is
being wrought within him, through
the agency Of the missionaries,
that the polished top of a baking
powder can, would put him in
touch, with the improvement in
his personal appearance, wrough.

He thinks that the average
brave after few operations on
his hirsute adornment, would be

he would soon forget the joys Of
the festive warpath.

of civilization, that he thinks will
assure its success.

Many Republicans in this county
have in past years scratched their
tickets in favor of the Democratic
county candidates on grounds of
personal friendship or because
they believed themselves under
some obligation for favors received,
yet all who have thus deserted
their own party candidates, as al
legged by the Independent, have
been 'seduced' by ''the money and
whiskey furnished by the other
side" They have also been assur.
ed by that paper that Democratic
booze and Doodle will flow this
year in unstinted volume for their
further corrupting. We do not
maintain that booze and Doodle has
not it's influence with a certain class
of voters, but to say that all Repub-
licans who scratched are corrupt
and vicious, whose characteristics
are similar to those of hog, in the
language of our friend upthe street,
is insulting to their manhood and
should meet with their just resent
mept ut the polls next November.

The Republicans of this county
should not let the Office of Repre-
sentative get away from them this
year. The election of a United
States senator from Missouri is
involved in the present campaign
and for this reason the Democrats
will, we believe, make an unusual
effort to elect their candidate for
this Office and much money will
be used to accomplish this result.
Aside from the Senatorship the
Republicans have the repeal of
vicious partisan election laws at
stake, and Democrat is not to be
trusted to give his vote for the
repeal of these laws. We have al
ready had sufficient demonstration
of the latter fact in the past. Two
years ago a Republican congress
