IN THE CONSTITUTIONAL.

A committee has presented a pro-
vision prohibiting the intermarriage
OF negroes and whites, and a propo-
sition determining who are negroes.
They ought also to prohibit whites
from seducing negro glls and wo-
men, but the last proposition of de-
termining who are negroes Is q

negroes and black white folks in
this country that the convention will

for Governor.

The Voice of Labor, editer and

ty one of Haskell's tools, announces
that Haskell Is a candidate for gov

all surprised.
Haskell fooled the Democrats in
getting Spaulding, Rutherford and
others out of his way as a delegate
to the constitutional convention, ana
promised the senatoishIp, the gov
ernorship and all the other places
on the Democratic ticket IL they
would lay down and not stop the
Hinton theater convention where be
was to fool the Republicans.
Now he throws down Fite, Spauld-
ing and the whole gang.
He also fooled the lilly white Re-
publicans by promising them the
earth and more.
He promised Bixby the senator
ship, and gave Shoenfelt and Judge
Thomas both the nomination for
congress If they would be for him.
They took the bait.
SOpei', Archer, land Victor also
got promises and promises.
Haskell now laughs at the bunch
and says, You gillies, you ought to

KELL'S RECORD.

When Cal Brice, the Ohio Demo
Crat, who bribed his way into the
United States senate, was buying up
Legislators like cattle, c. N. Has
kell was the man who conducted
the affair, or had charge of the
Brice campaign. Afterwards, Has
kell was for two years Brice's man
ager on Wall street. When this pO-
litical adventurer left Ohio there
were debts against him aggregating
about $4,000, and some of these
claims are now in the hands of
South McAlester attorney. but not
one cent Of them can be collected.
Such man, with such a record, now
has complete control of a conven-
