THE WEST INDIAN.

In a recent number of the North
American Review, Mr.. w. P. Living
stone has an article headed: "The
West Indian and the American Ne
gro-a Contrast"
Mr.. Livingstone evidently wishes
to be regarded as an original OBJ
server, one who has had opportuni
ties for personal observation of the
conditions he is discussing. But his
article does not entitle him to any
such regard; for there is nothing in
it which almost any we'll read per-
son could sit down and write, and,
moreover, the article contains one or
two statements so widely at variance
with the facts as to show that Mr..
Livingstone is indebted to the news
papers for most of his so-called facts.
Still, there are some grains of truth
in the article, and some little correct
reasoning, and we give a synopsis.
Mr.. L. notes the fact that in the
West Indies there is distinct line
of demarkation between the "co1-
ored' man and the pure black which
weakens, "the power of combination
among the members of the darker
races while in the United States

OKLAHOMA CONSTITUTION.

When the enthusiastic Democrat of
OKLAHOMA counted noses at the con-
stitutional convention and discovered
that they had an overwhelming ma
jority, according to their invariable
practice IN such contingency, they
proceeded to write themselves down
as asses. Unmindful of the two i'm
portant facts that they had repub-
I lican and Republican Congress to
deal with, they blocked out legis-
latlve districts in such a way as to
make it impossible for the Repub-
licans ever to elect a United States
Senator. They adopted drastic pro-
visions relative to corporations, so
drastic in fact that they were modi-
he'd later upon the. receipt of notice
that the President would never ap-
prove the constitution if it came to
him in the form in which it was first
drafted.
A community guilty of sending
such a gang of hoodlums to make
laws for it deserves no consideration
whatever, but should be made to re-
main in outer darkness weeping and
wailing and gnashing it's teeth until
1t can send men to represent it who
are at least partially civilized. 1t
ought to be source of exquisite
pleasure to every decent man in the
country to hear of such a gang of
bunco-steerers being knocked out.
