wANTED-AN AMERICAN TYPE.


Where, between the Atlantic and
Pacific, the Canadian border and Key
West is to be found the typical
American man or woman? Is there
person sufficiently cosmopolitan to
stand among the national characters
Of the world as a typical representa-
tive Of Ameria?
Other nations are represented in
picture and story by characters ad-
mitted by all to be representative of
their native countries Germany has
her Hans and Gretchens, France her
Jeans and Lisettes, Norway her Johns
and Sophies. America has the shrewd
Yankee and the busy New England
housewife, as portrayed by Alice Bar
her Stephens, the society woman and
club man of New York, as pictured
by Charles Dana Gibson. the Kentucky
cOloels and the hadsome sOthern
women and their noted hospitality, as
described in story by James Lane Al
LEM Frederick Remington finds his
types in the west and the breezy char
acters of the ever moving frontier
have had their romances cnronicled
by Bret Harte. AL these characters
are typical of the localities from
which they come, but none represeu.
fott,-- % Tho 1o,tnfrv
The westerner would scorn to
have the well dressed cociety of New
York furnish the national type Of man
or woman These same society folk
would never vote to have the unpolish-
ed Yankee accept the place of honor
I The Yankee in turn would object to
the southerner as the characteristic
/ type of the nation. No such charac
ter as is represented by Uncle Sam
/ is found south Of the Mason and Dix
on line nor west of the Mississippi
Even the Goddess OF Liberty looks
more like Grecian than an Ameri
can.
The typical American must have the
shrewdness of the Yankee, me grace
bred Of society the hospitality of th5
southerner and the sang froid of the
westerner. Can such a character be
found? Would the American "schoo
marm" and the persistent book agen
be finally called on in case of emerg
ency?

All efforts to reconcile the striking
miners and operators in the anthracite
mines appear to have ceased and af-
ter nineteen weeks Of struggle the
matter seems no nearer settlement
than when it began.
Both sides are unwilling 10 submit
to compulsory arbitration and will op-
pose an attempy to pass such an act
Neither seems to think the public has
any rights which they are bound to
respect.
President Baer refuses 20 arbitrate
because he eays any additional in
crease in wages will advance the price
of anthracite coal and so curtaD the
market and ultimately njure the min
ers by throwing them out Of employ
ment
He does nol see his way GEAR TO
squeeze any of the water out of his
stock, and so. of course, must have
dividends on the present capital.

nomination was made on the second

was adopted by the convention as
follows
Platform: We, ghe Representatives
of the Republicans Of the Third con
gressional district of Iowa, heartily
endorse the platform of principles
adopted by theflate Republican state
convention at Des Moines. We deny
that the Dinkley tariff breeds and
shelters trusts. We interpret the
tariff plank lin the Des Moines plat
form Of 1902, to be nearly a reitera
tion of and to mean more than the st
Louis plank of 1896, which recited
''We are mot pledged by any particu
lar schedules. The question of rates
is a practical question to be governed
by the condition of the times and Of
production. The ruling and uncom

EoR wHAr poEs M euIRE STAND


MCGUIRE and his party by their own
choice stand first and most prominent
ly: For a little Oklahoma with high
axes and many offices which they
hope to fill
They stand for throwing all burd-
ons incident to establishing and main
tanning a state government on the
people of a small sec ion Of country.
They stand for bearing the total
expense of maintaining the colleges.
and asylums necessary to every state
by the people OF little Oklahoma.
The stand for bearing the total ex-
pense of maintaining state courts and
penitentiaries by Oklahoma alone.
They stand for the erection of a
state capital building which would
cost $2OOO,OOO by the people of okla
homa as it is.
They stand for a delay Of twenty
one years before eny part Of Indian
territory can be admitted
They stand for admitting it at the
end of that time according to the ir.
revocable ordinance without any pro
vision for the endowment Of i5s
schools.
They stand for an attempt to get all
the public institutions located in Ok
lahoma as it now Is cutting out In
dian territory, which means bitter
ness and sectional strife and final de-
feat and loss whenever Indian terri
tory is incorporated.
They stand for absorbing all the
Offices for Oklahoma alone
They stand for excluding the Usage
nation from Oklahoma Their plat
form says not but the logic by which
they exclude all the other nations
says yes.
They sland for the oeittling Of
Indian territory TO carry their points.
They stand for an attempt to alien
ate the people of Oklahoma and Indian
territory.
They stand for the admission of Ok
lahoma with untaxable Indian allot-
ments and the denial of Indian terri
tory for that very reason.
All these and many other incon-
grulties. they rolemnly protest are
very near to their hearts.
The real fact is, however thai,
while these are made the campaign
cry. the desire for statehood is in one
side OF the balance aud the weighty
desire TO hold on to the territorial
form of government and the federal
and territorial offices with their lus
cious emoluments and gratis is in the
other side OF the balance held by the
exfedeTal official candidate and his
territorial and federal official support
ers.
Can the man who has no ak 10 grind
and who stands for the general wei
fare Of the community AFFORD to stand
with them?
