Robert L. Owen.

Candidate for the United States
senate before the Democratic prima-
ries June Sth is making his race sole
ly on the fitness for the position and
the good he can do the people.
He insists that the restrictions must
be removed. For If they are not the
country will not prosper. There is
but little taxable land outside the
towns. Nontaxable land is unrent.
able land. The lands, under present
conditions, cannot be sold Homes and
farms Ior the bona fide homeseekers
cannot be purchased. These condi-
tions must, be changed.
Robert l.. owen is the man best
qualified to accomplish this. lie IL
lawyer of international reputation
and his past services in securing need
ed legislation for the territory have
been oil almost incalculable benefit to
1t. He is a diplomat and accomplish
ed linguist He has recovered over
nineteen millions OF .olars OF prop
erty for his clients in the past six
teen years. He rendered material as
sistance in securing civil government
for the Indian Territory in 1883. The
extension Of the national banking act
over the Indian Territory was due
wholly To his efforts. Securing full
United States citizenship to every
Indian in the Indian Territory in 1901 I;
the removal of restrictions on lands
of allottees not of Indian blood Is
largely due to his efforts. These are
few of the many things he has ac-
complis- ed for the country and his
people.

Elsewhere we publish a commune
cation from an esteemed correspond
ent, in which he opposes the recon-
mendation Of .hc Committee on
Streets to make Col. W. H. c,tshaw
consulting engineer
In the view OF The Times d Ispatch
1t would be eminently right and wise
to adopt this recommendation. Col.
Cutshaw has served the city faithr,I,v
and efficiently for many years. and
there was never the faint OF suspicion
against his personal or official intcg-
rity. AS an honorable Official he has
been public exemplar and credit
TO our government He Is Justly on
Titled to retirement and pay, but ne
docs not desire pension, nor is It
| proposed to pension him. He has n vast
fund OF information which makes his
services invaluable 10 the city, and he
should be retained as active or con-
sultlng engineer as long az he lives
1 The city simply cannot afford tc
| lose him.
