that there is much sincerity in this
cry. 1t Is too much in keeping with
their previous efforts to defeat any
constitution not made under their
direction and put in force under
their auspices, The constitution IT.
self is subject to many serious OBJ
joctions, but the Republicans, II they
did not deprive themselves of the
right to press those objections, have
weakened the force Of any argument
they can make against It. They
seem themselves to be sensible OF
this; for, instead of making open
warfare on the constitution itself,
they have evidently resolved to fight
it guerrilla fashion. one who looks
back over the course OF the Republi-
cans will very readily understand the
animus in this cry Of fraud" 1t

cans politicians don't want Oklaho-

Trying to Keep Oklahoma out.

The election for the selection of
delegates to the Oklahoma constitu-
tional convention was held under
conditions entirely favorable to the
Republicans. The districts were
mapped out by Republican con
gross and most of the election Off
GERS were Republicans. Notwith-
standing they had those advantages,
tho Republicans lost the election by
an overwhelming majority,
A consideration of that fact must
make 1t extremely difficult for any
one to believe that last Tuesdays
result was accomplished by fraud. 1t
seems to be a pretty logical sequence
of the first election. Every test has
shown that the Democrats are in a
majority in the two territories that
are to make up the state of Oklahoma
and no unsupported charge OF fraud
is going to blind anyone to that fact
Perhaps there were Irregularities
here and there. That would be re-
grettable, but not surprising. But
even II there were such irregulari-
ties, it is in the highest degree i'm
probable that they were great enough
to give Haskell majority that Is
apparently not less than $4,000.
From the beginning, the Republi-
cans OF Oklahoma have pursued a
policy which suggests that they have
been determined to rule or ruin.
They have shown, at every opportu-
nifty, more regard for their party's
welfare than for the common veal.
After they had been defeated in the
delegate election, their first oppor-
tunity to embarrass those who had
been commissioned to make con-
stitution came after the convention
had exhausted its funds. If they did
not vote against AN additional appro-
prtation by congress, at least they
declined TO make an appeal that
would have assured It.
Their next effort was to allege that
the territory had been grossly ger
rymandered, and to prevent the cleo
tion Of last Tuesday by means of an
injunction. They failed in this, and
a census taken under the suporsf-
sion Of their own partisans has shown
that their charge of gerrymander
was nine parts fiction and one part
truth.
Baked again, they next asked 10

SCALDED
TO DEATH
-Four Year Old Son Of Robert
, BGdWeII Dies From
Burns,

After four hours Of terrible sui.
fering from burns which had eaten
the flesh from his little body, Jerald,
the l-year old con Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Bedwoll on Eigth street,
found relief yesterday evening In
death, This afternoon the heart
broken parents are preparing to bury
the remains of the child which, up
to the time OF tho accident, was in
glowing health
The family, which has lived in
Amarillo only a few months, occupies
small house on the corner OF the
lot back of the Mcspadden house on
Eighth street, Mr. Bedwell has
started q towel and apron service
business among the restaurants, bar
her shops, and down town business
houses, and the work Of washing
these IS done at home. Yesterday
afternonon, the little boy in playing
around the house fell back ward into
a tub of scalding water which had
just been placed on the floor, The
water, furiously hot literally cooked
nearly every part Of the childs skin,
In a moment the little boy was
rescued and from that time on every
means that skill of surgery and nurs-
ing could suggest was used to re-
lieve the lawful toturo which the
boy suffered. The extent of the
burns made recovery out of the
question and as the burns gradually
stopped the normal functions of the
skin, the boy weakened til shortly
after Z o'clock when death ended
the uneven struggle.
sympathy for the parents in this
unusual and terrible bereavement is
general and although comparatively
few people know Of the accident in
time, the funeral services this after
noon will be largely attended. Rev.
c. Nm. Ferguson, of the Methodist
church, is conducting the services
from the residence.

Rates Not Decided.
l.. II. simmons, of the Denver and
A. b. Spencer, OF the Rock Island,

and accommodations for the trip hut
ihrsc points are not definitely de-
icrmined. Tho regular excursion rate
Tor ordinary events Is s13 for the
round trip TO Fort Worth Toward
tho Inst OF the fair for several years,
tho Denver has been running eycur-
dons at IS for the round trip TO
Fort Worth but this only allowed one
day at the fair The Panhandle ex-
curslon will provide special trains
clear through TO Dallas with
out change and will allow about
three days at the fair. In addition,
the Pullmanl reserved at Amarillo
will be secured for the entire time
and will be left on siding desig-
mated by the party for the use of the
passengers during their stay in Dali
lass This will do away with the
aecesslIy for transferring baggage
aud for taking chances with crowded
hotel accommodation in Dallas. In
view OF these advantages the rate
will be low but It will not reach the
minimum Denver excursion rate.
