FOR SINGLE STATEHOOD.
Hitchcock Thinks. Oklahoma Should
 Be Admitted at Once.


 Washington, May 21.--Secretary Hitch cock was at the Interior Department to- day for the first time in almost a month, having just returned from tour of in- spection in Indian Territory and Okla homa, the first official visit ever made to those territories by the head of the de- partment having especial supervision of their affairs.
 T am delighted with all that I saw" said the Secretary. referring to his tour. "I found both territories populated by an intelligent and progressive people and the population rapidly growing fin both instances. Settlers are going into Indian Territory from all the States of the Union, and in this respect the settlement is somewhat different from that of other States and Territories. This fact is &C., counted for by the exceptional richness of the soil the fine climate and the many advantages, There are already signs Of prosperity on every hand. and the prom ise is rich for greater growth in the fu- ture The Dawes Commission is giving especial attention to the ehrollment of the Indians and the allotment of land to them with an honest determination to complete it's labors in 1906, the time fixed by Congress.
 Secretary Hitchcock took positive ground against the consolidation of the two territories and their admission as one State Such a union at this time and before the status of the Indians is fixed as contemplated by law" he said, would be unfair to the Indians. and should not he attempted-certeinly not at this time If at any time. On the other hand. the people of Oklahoma are entitled to immediate Statehood and there should be no delay in the admission of that territory with It's present boundaries The territory has the population and the wealth to make 1t first-class State from the outset Indian Territory has the pop uIation and the natural resources to make a fine State alone some day.s The In. dians do not desire the union."

The report says the present system

respects. necessitating the placing OF
recruits confined for military offenses

and with criminals. For long-term
men a return of the military prison a

Recommendation is made that the
course of study in officers schools be
rearranged so that all subjects pursued
in any school in the army be fully COM
pleted in that year.
In reference to the award OF medals
to successful competitors at the various
competitions in small arms practice,
General Baldwin recommends the abo.-
ishment of the system and the subst :

to increase interest in the compeu-

JEROME SCORES LOW.
District Attorney Says New York May
or Has Been Selfish and D'Ahonest.

I.akeville Conn, Sept. ! .-District
Attorney Jerome made public last even
ing letter to G. G. Nadal of the Citi-
sens' union, in which Mr.. Jerome's
position regarding the candidacy %
Mayor Low for re- election is fully ex-
planned Mr.. Nadal is one of the many
members of the Citizens union and the
republican city organization who have
written Mr.. Jerome asking by what
authority the indirect statements which
have been printed in the newspapers as
coming from the district attornessa are
published.
Mr.. Jerome undertook by answering
MI. Nadal to answer all his question
ers. In his letter he draws particular.
attention to what he considers the more
vivid example OF Mayor Lows selfish
ness and tacit dishonesty. He says
he is fully assured that President
Roosevelt never promised Mr. Low
his support as president" He says,
Furthermore that If it be true that
President Roosevelt has. contrary to
this belief offered federal support to
Mr. Low the latter Is by that fact
disqualified from receiving support
from any democrat in nonpartisan
campaign.
Mr.. Jerome devotes considerable
part of his letter to explaining his
personal position in the present cam
paign He assures MIR. Nadal and all
others that he is neither bitterly
disappointed candidate" nor man who
will sulk because his advice was not
needed by the majority. He challenges
the Citizens union to prove the SIN
cerity of it's support TO Mayor Loa
by submitting the candidacy Of the
mayor to a secret ballot of the Citizens
union by the city convention OF Sept.
90. He says the bosses of the Citizens
union dare not let their followers ex-
press their real will by secret ballot.
The utterances of Chairman Linn
Bruce and other members of the re-
publican city organization. broadly i'm
putting interested and ungenerous mo-
tives to MIR. Jerome We're brought to
his attention, and he said: Il think my
letter will do for them 10 chew on for
q while. I'll talk about my disappoint-
ment' letter.
Following are extracts from his let
ter:
II have satisfied myself by careful
Inquiries among the great mass OF tho
people, to whom we must look for sup
port in the coming campaign, that they
believe Mr.. Low can no. be reelected.
While they may give him q half
