CONGRESSMAN Lands ON THE
CONSTITUTION.

Oklahoma City, June 81
Before starting for his train
Congressman Lands, holding
in his hand telegram from
Speaker Cannon asking him to
visit Darville on his way home,
was interviewed on the political
situation and gave his views
briefly on the constitution.
"Of course haven't seen the
constitution" said the famous
Indiana judge, "and l really
have not learned why the docu-
ment has been kept secret.
That very fact is so suspicious
that every fair minded man of
either party should condemn it. "
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

haps, than any like sum of
money was ever known before.
Indeed the Post is a Jonah to
any party or faction that it at
tempts to use in it's business. =
Oklahoma State Capital, June
II, 1907.
Does he mean the Phoenix.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

We are not q candidate for
any thing nor do we seell leader
ship. We are willing for those
things to be held by other par
ties, but we do object to dying
just now and if there is any
thing we can do to keep away
from the undesirable you can
bet we will do it.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

Pole cat Bill is sitting up and
taking notice since President
Roosevelt is going to have a
census taken of. the new state
which will show the attempt to
disfranchies the Republicans and
steal the state. Bill will fix the
con right or there will be moth
ing doing"
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

Douglass and his crowd are
for the constitution and for a
state ticket. All true Republi
cans are against the constitution
aud against a ticket. Doug. is
a regular party wrecker and is
more a burbou Democrat than
a Republican.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

The Southern people who
wish to trade the Negro laborer
for the foreigner will find their
mistake soon because each for
eigner has a stick of dynamite
in his hip pocket and recipe for
making bombs. The real high
toned southerner has no use for
that kind of of a man. Citizen.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

The Republican party of the
Indian Territory will he domi-
mated by the white Republicans.
The Negroes will be treated
fairly but they will not be
permitted to rule. The Negroes
will understand this when this
campaign opens and there will
be no more such exhibitions as
have been recently witnessed.
The Negro knows that without
the leadership and the aid of ihe
white Republicans he is polit-
ically lost. And he also knows
that self.respecting white men
will not tolerate the assumption
on his part of leadership or
master. --PhoniX, ,-1906.
The above rot appeared in the
Phoenix and Clarence Douglass
is and was the editor.
How canany self respecting
Colored man support Douglass
or any other man who is spon-
sor for such stuff? We want to
see harmony in the Republican
party but do you expect it with
such cusses leading and dictat-
ing the policy of the party!
The Negroes have not at any
time attempted to dominate.
They have assisted in electing
white men to office but not of
the Douglass stripe.
The Negro is willing for white
men to lead who are capable and
honest but they are not willing
for the bulldozer and the lily
white element to crowd them
out of the party.-Ed.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

The class of Republicans that
favors the present constitution
is the class that wishes to give
the state to the Democrats in
order that they may hold the
federal Offices in the new state.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

"But I have examined pretty
carefully what purports to be a
copy of it and do not hesitate
to say that it is a very perni-
cious and dangerous document.
AS a Republican, l, of course,
object to a gerrymander that
would disfranchise 10000 of my
party. We do not ask for any
advantage, but we do demand a
fair and equal chance. Suppose
your legislature is democratic,
session after session, assuring
term after term of democratic
Senators. Suppose in the course
of "a few years the United
States Senate becomes pretty
evenly divided and the House
democratic, the two democratic
senators from Oklahoma might
be able to give us a free trade
tariff law as one democratic
Senator did in 1916 and again
in 1894, Why, our last free
trade law cost us more than did
the Civil war. Let us have no
more such disadvantageous, no
such unfair, un-American con-
dition. Let every mans vote
count as much as his neighbours
or the citizens at the most dis
tant point Of the state"
"But vicious as this feature
of the constitution is it is not
the worst. l naturally believe
in the power and protection OF
the courts. believe that the
supreme court of a state should
be supreme, it's rulings subject
to no review save by the United
states Supreme Courts. When
you make a partisan gerry
wandered legislature supreme
over executive and courts, you
destroy protection and make
government a farce"
"The hostility shown foreign
capital is another Objectionable
feature. Oklahoma, | believe
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1907-07-05

is destined to be one of the
great states of the Union, but
under the proposed constitution
| do not see how dollar of out
side capital should come into
your state or a single investor
or home seeker"
"The methods and scope of
taxation seem to me also open
to criticism. There must be
taxes for government, for
schools, for public buildings and
improvements, for roads and
various necessities, but taxation
should he equal and just and
taxation should never be confis-
cation"
Il have no time to go into
other phases OF this remarkable
document, but II am confident
the people will defeat it and the
way to do that is for the Repub.
licans to bend every energy to
that one result. Don't compli.
cate and confuse the situation
by naming state and county
tickets. Be consistent and cour-
ageOns. Go to the people and
explain to them the unjust feat
ures of the constitution, and
when they understand it they
will deposit a ballot against it,"
"Do I think the President
would accept it if adoptedT" the
Congressman was asked in con-
clusion. mo l DON'T" was the
quick response, "but don't send
it to him." Beat it yourselves
and beat it hard, And then
added the great Republican
leader of the House of Represen-
tatives, I pledge you that we
will give you another enabling
act at the next session of Con-
gress and an opportunity to
frame another constitution that
will be fair and just and in har.
mony with American principles
and American ideales."

Sight of Carloads of Texas steers
Restores Kansas City Man
"Were you ever 1900 miles from
home and SO desperately homesick that
YOU wished you would, der
mot exactly"
"WeI 7 hope you never will be"
The young man who was doing tne
talking passed the summer vacation IN
New England, says the Kansas ClV
Star.
st had counted on having gooo
time of rest and recreation In quiet
little town on the Boston and Albany
Railroad" he confded to an office as
sociate the other day. But my plans
were all upset. 1 took a heavy cold
going over from Chicago to Detroit by
boat and by the time had reached
my destination l was threatened with

starvation may be averted through
the laboratory" writes T. A. Talbot in
the Technical World Magazine, and
ascribes the momentous prophetic
words to the eminent SCIENTIST, Sir VIII
liam Crookes "Sir William made the
statement" says the writer, before
the annual congress of the British as
ISOLATION in 1898, and he ventured the
prophecy also that it would be the COM
bination of chemical research and the
hydraulic forces of nature, as exempli-
fed in the numerous waterfalls, that
would at no distant time be used to
produce an adequate food supply for
the growing population of the world
1.-THE one great question that has
been directing the closest research of
the whole scientific world for more
than a century past has been the solv-
ing of the problem as to how to meet
the growing demand that has resulted
from the extensive developments of
agriculture for heterogeneous foods. The
population of the globe is rapidly be-
coming more and more dependent for
its vital force upon what the scientists
generally term bread-that is, those
foodstuffs essentially of a highly nitro
genous character. The existence of all
life, both animal and plant, is abso-
lutely dependent upon a certain num-
Der OF substances generally known as
the ailments, and the presence Of nitro
gen in some form in these ailments Is
indispensable. 1t is the atmosphere
which directly or indirectly furnishes
to all living things the nitrogen nee
essary for their life, and it is from
the air, moreover, that the two prin-
cipal forms of nourishment which, agri-
culture demands in the combinations of
its fertilizers, nitrate Of soda and sui
phate Of ammonia, are derived"
A description of the new method of
extracting nitrogen from the atmos-
phere follows.
