LET IT ALONE.


Plans are Oh foot looking to the
consolidation of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory into one body
polite and their admission into
the union as state, under the
name Of Jefferson, III honor of the
author of the declaration of indie
pendence and the founder of the
democratic party.
1t is to be hoped that no change
will be made in the name which
one of these territories now bears.
when it is admitted as state and
such probably will be the case.
Attempts have been made in this
direction before when other terri
tories were about to be admitted
as states, but always without sue
cess. Thus when Washington ter
rltory was about to become state
congress was besieged with petit
tions asking that body to require
the new state to take the name Of
Tacoma, and there was also con-
siderable activity in the territory
In the interest of the proposed
change of name. The vast ma
jority of the people of the terri
tory objected, however, to change
of name, as it's long use had en-
deared it to them, and so it was
retained. The same was true of
the two Dakotas and also of New
Mexico and Arizona when it was
proposed some years ago to confer
statehood upon them.
The state of Washington should
really have had the name of Ia
coma, which is soft, musical and
appropriate, being Indian and
consequently associated with the
prehistoric settlement of America.
The records of these interesting
people are exceedingly rare and
what few of them we possess
should be preserved in the nomen-
clature of the country. There is
not q state In the union which has
so sonorous name as Alabama.
The tongue seems to glide over it
with delight, as the skater does
over the ice, Astounding as it does
in vowels and with few rough con-
sohants to interrupt the passage.
The proper pronunciation Of this
name is that the in the third
syllable (ba) should have the
broad sound, as in father.
Instead of Georgia as the name
of our state, Nantahala Ga broad
III the third syllable) would
sound much better. 1t is to be
greatly regretted that our English
ancestors supplanted with English
names the beautiful Indian desig-
nations which they found in this
country, facts especially true of
southern Indians, whose speech
was music itself.
We should honor the memories
Of our great men by counties and
towns, but states, as they repre-
sent sovereignty, should take the
names of the original sovereigns
of America-tho Indians.

yesterday forwarded to the District Com
missioners his opinion in regard TO the
application for permit to build an apart
ment house on Chaplin Street, seventy two
feet high, while the street is but sixty
five feet wide.

owner could set the building back from
the present building line ten feet. thus
establishing a new building line. and run
the building up to the desired height.
Mr.. Duvall holds the purpose of the law
to be the protection to property on the
opposite side. rather than that on the
same side of the street.
