klcKINe ON MAJORITY RULE.

Those who oppose the adoption of
the constitution seem to fear the peo-
pie and unwilling to trust them in the
future. Can not majority OF the
people change the constitution al any

The people by large majority dele
gated the power TO write this consu-
tuition 10 a convention composed OF
80 Democrats aud 13 Republicans.
This overwhelming preference for
Democrats can only be taken as the
manifestation OF confidence in the
principles and men of that party as
representatives OF popular government
OF the type desired.
There was no reason TO believe that
those men elected upon such issues
would do otherwise than write con-
stiintion along those lines. This they
have done, and done Il weh.
Now come the same men who OPP
posed the election Of these present
delegates and kick, kick, Kick. DID

There were those who fondly be-

to join in the last long pull for state

But unfortunately for the fair nam'

class who so soon as the result OF th'
election last fall became known, be

course there are exceptions in case
of poor men with great energy and
ability. On the whole, it Is early day
Investments that pay and the Oldest
establishments that make the most
money
This leads to the belief that the
early distribution of tribal funds will
be best for the Indian. This will
place him In a position to get the
largest returns from the growth OF
property values. It win place more
OF the unearned increment TO his
credit II will give him fair start
at the beginning. Delay will cost the
loss of many opportunities.
The restrictions on fhe sale Of In
dian lands, while intended for the
benefit of the Indian. in fact are not.
for they place the coentry under such
a ban as must needs and will greatly
retard It's growth Not that the In
dian shcrld sell. bet that he should
have the right TO sell and be his own
master in AL things. In this way
alone can any character or resi- in
diyidual Development come.
Oklahoma with two senators and
five representatives can make herself
heard on this and other propositions.
The constitution and state furnish
the safest means to this end.

CLEANING up the body in the spring
~ is a duty everyone owes to himself.
Face powders may hide rough skin,
but Peruna helps TO produce a skin that
need not be hidden.
The source of good blood is good di-
gestion. Peruna aids digestion.
Those people who have regular bodily
functions have q clear and delicate skin
Peruna helps to restore these functions
Most skin deformities depend upon
systemic arrangements, which cannot
be corrected by local treatments.
Peruna is systemic remedy, reorgan'
izing and regulating the whole body.

a little yellow pimp2e on one OF ner

over and said that he could not DO any
