is such a rule observed IN can
vassing the returns of state cleo
tions, and it is not the intention
of the enabling act to have any
such rule applied in Oklahoma.
In none of the states formerly
admitted under congressional acts
was such a rule recognized.
"Of course, the Democrats are
protesting against the ruling and
w II resist it in the courts, but as
the matter viii have to be decided
by Republican authority, and be-
cause the Republicans through
out the country are anxious to
bar Oklahoma, it is not certain
what the decision will be.
"It ought to be plain to the
Oklahoma Republican managers,
however, that they are pursuing
| q course that will eternally damn
the party in Oklahoma. Whether
Oklahoma be admitted in an or
derly and decent manner or
barred for indefinite time, it is a
Democratic state and the outrage
now sought to be perpetrated
upon its people will be remem-
bered as long as this generation
survives.
sMr Roosevelt has an oppor-
tunity to win the commendation
of the people of Oklahoma by in
dicating to Republican territorial
satraps there that it is not his
desire for them to steal the state
or obstruct statehood. 1t is a
disgrace already that Oklahoma
has been kept out so long merely
as matter of political expedi-
ency, and he should terminate
the uncertainty with a quiet hint
that further distractions to state
hood are not desired. There is
no doubt the brood at Guthrie
are bold enough to attempt tc
stealif the President should wish
it. but they would have a fine
time undertaking to maintain q
government thus filched from the
people. "
