ghNG out advance information of
the government cotton crop reports
were punished it is right that those
who gave out other information about
the government affairs should be con-
sured. The order that Financial pa

a good order because it is largely

In 1905 General Grant recommended
to the War Department that a bonus

was 50. /. The next year under the

1t looks at this writing, that the
Democrats have carried Oklahoma,
winning the entire State ticket, the
Legislature, which gives us two more
Senators and about four out of the
five congressional districts. 1t looks
also as if the constitution has been
ratified by the people. If all this is
so, II is well and we should rejoice
with these good people down there
who have been refused the blessings
OF Statehood too long already. IT
is now up to the President to issue
the proclamation to bring the State
into the Union, and then one and
half million people will be able
TO get their just and equal rights
with all the other self governed
peoples of the country. IL the
President refuses to issue his proc
lamation, it can be and will be for
no ether reason than that the State
is Democratic and that seven more
electoral votes have been added to
the democratic column. If he should
do so partisan a thing as that, IL
will inject one more issue into the
next campaign, and it will remain
for the people of the country to
say if thev will stand for anv
such injustice. It then would be 4
godsend to the Democratic party
if Teddy himself would take the

Special Correspondence Of Mirror.
Washington, ID. c., Sept. 2S.-
All the talk Of the Democratic
leaders and Of the Independent Re-
publicans Of the country, who place
conscience above party tends to
SHOW that the departure Of this
administration from the plain let
ter of the constitution and the
constitutional forms Of government
will be one of the leading issues
in the next campaign. SO, it seems
that Marse Henry Watterson's cry
of "back to the constitution" is
not so funny, as some of the para
graphers of the country think it is.
This cry Of the Roosevelt adminis-
tration fer greater centralized gov
ernment, greater power i'll the hands
Of the executive, d radical change
in our system of government, is
making sharp issue for the next
campaign and the Democrats Of the
next Congress have got to force the
issue and make it well defined so
that he who runs NAV read. If
this is to be Hamiltonian form
of government as contradistinguish-
ed from Jeffersonian form. then
the issue should come now and the
people should have chance to
decide the matter at the polls. But,
at the same time the Democrats
ought not to put up candidate
who, IN the remotest degree agrees
with Roosevelt or any Of his pet
candidates for the presidency,
whether it be Taft or any other
man. If it is to be Roosevelt him
self, then the issue will be more
sharply defined and to it will be
added the other issue of the third
term. He then will be breaking
one of the sacred traditions of the
country as well as clamoring for
legislative as well as executive pow
err. This extra policy in the hands
of the general government involves
the very life of State rights and
any man inside the Democratic par
tv who quibbles the least bit about
Slate rights ought not to be made
the candidate.
Our candidate should be man
who can read his title clear on both
these subjects as they will be bound
to come up in the next race as
two of the big issues of the cam
paign. These are among the signs
of the times and the way the
leading Democrats who visit the
National capital are talking to-
day, and it is just as well for
the people generally throughout the
country that thev know it and gov
ern themselves accordingly.

oriain ,f .Hip, Hip, hurrah!n

\ London paper, answering a
question as to the derivation of
"Ilip, hip, hurrahe' printed the
following excerpt on the subject
from the London Taller of 1882:
"During the stirring times of the
crusades the chivalry of Europe was
excited to arms by the inhammatory
appeals of the well known Peter the
Hermit. While preaching the cru
sade this furious zealot was accus-
toned to exhibit banner embla-
zored with the letters H. i. p, the
initials of the Latin words, Hero
solvma Est Perdita' Jerusalem is
destroyed). The people in some OF
the, countries which he visited, not
being acquainted with Latin, read
and pronounced the inscription IS
il one word-Hep. The followers
of the Hermit were accustomed,
whenever an unfortunate Jew ap-
peared in the streets, to raise the
cry, Hep, hep, hurra,' to hunt him
down and flesh upon the lefenseless
Israelite their maiden swords, be-
fore they essayed their temper with
tie scimiter of the Saracen.

Want More Cotton to Gin.

On account of insufficient sup
ply of cotton to keep us rEn-
ming every day, beginning next
week, we will confne ourselves
to gin days. These being Tues
day, Wednesday, and Friday
of each week. The ginning pab-
lie will please govern themselvs,
accordingly.
While the price of seed is
somewhat off, yet We are pay
ing more than the present con-
ditions will warrant for all the
seed accessible, that we might
control the situation here among
you. A home corporation doing
business at home for the interest
at home.
To those who do not care to
sell their seed for cash We are
offering a strictly high grade
meal in exchange. Our rate of
exchange at the mill is 1900 lbs.
of meal for one ton of seed, 1t
is a conceded fact cotton
seed meal is a cheaper and
more effective fertilizer than
cotton seed. According to
chemical analysis Of each 1856
pounds of cotton seed meal
are equivalent to 1000 pounds
of cotton seed, but owing
to the superior mechanical
condition of meal, it is safe to
assume that 800 pounds of meal
are the full equivalent to one ton
of cotton seed, therefore, what
ever excess above 800 pounds OF
meal theIfarmer gets in exchange
for a ton of seed is so much clear
profit to him in comparison with
using the ton of seed directly as
a fertilizer. You can readily see.
that by exchanging your seed
with US you realize nearly 100
per cent on the transaction.
Bring your seed to US and not
make the mistake of getting
inferior meal elsewhere in ex-
change.
Our meal is open for inspec-
ton. Samples sent on applica-
ton.
