UPON
ACTIVITY
Restrictions Can be Removed By
Proper Effort Turner
Pledged to Il

Those republican politicians whs
are openly opposing the adoption oi
the constitution are laying much
stress upon the fact that there are re-
strictions to be removed from land in
the Indian Territory before It will be
taxable, and that therefore not only
viii the western half Of the state be
called upon to pay most Of the state
taxes, but it viii be ruinous to main
tain county government on the east
side.
The weakness in this position lies
lies in the fact that it does not con-
template any act Of legislation which
vii remove admitted wrongs. It
would certainly be weak for repdbli-
cans to admit that a republican con-
gress would refuse to remove the re-
strictions which it placed on the land,
after it has been demonstrated that
they are ill-suited and inimical to the
interests Of the people Of the state.
Few, if any, Of these politicians will
say out loud that congress will re-
fuse to provide for immediate remov-
al Of restrictions, when conditions are
known. Reason tells us that the mat
ter will only have to be presented and
vigorously urged upon congress to be
corrected. II is indeed Tary import
ant that the restrictions shall be re-
moved; but with a strong congress
sional delegation, and M. L. Turner
with another man possessed Of similar
FORGE and vigor in the senate, con-
gress will not be long in learning that
Oklahoma wants in the removal Of
restrictions, nor will it be long in cor
recting the trouble. What Oklahoma
wants is statehood and it also wants
men in congress ,yho can do things
there for the people and do them
quickly. There will be no trouble
about the removal Of restrictions if
men are sent to the senate and house
who can get results and have made
record for accomplishing things. The
personnel of our senator's and repre-
sentatives will have much to do with |
The result Of a campaign for removal
Of restrictions and other immediate
needs Of the state.- Oklahoman.

OLD GRUDGE ENDS FATALLY
Jack Hoffman Kills Himself After
Shooting Grant Bell

Ardmore, |. T., May 1.-Afte- snoot
ing and dangerously woundlng Grant
Bell, with whom he had been on bad
terms for several years, Jack Hoffman
accidentally shot and killed himself
today while he was on his way to
Pauls Valley for the purpose of sur
rendering to the officers.
Both Of the men live near Foster.
There has been a grudge Of long stand
ing between them, and when they
met today Hoffman opened fire. Bell
fell at the first shot and it is doubt
ful whether or not he will recover.
Hoffman got into his wagon and
started for Pauls Valley, stating that
he intended to give himself up to the
authorities. An hour later his team
was found standing in the road a few
miles out from Pauls Valley. Hoffman
was lying in the bottom Of the wag-
on with an enormous hole in his left
side.
It is the general opinion here that
his gun was accidentally discharged
in some manner. Apparently he died
instantly

RIoHT-HANDgD - LEFT-LEeeED.
Popularity Of Humanity That Is Not
Generally Considered.

Most people would think that as
man is, with very few exceptions,
"rght-handed,' he would be at the
same time ''right-legged. But this is
not the case Almost every right
handed man uses his left leg more
than his right For instance, most
people find 1t much more natural to
go round circles to the right than to
the left That is because they start
with the left leg. Being stronger, it is
more readily brought into action, and
it is on this account that bodies Of
soldiery. always start to march with
the left foot. Almost all courses for
foot races are made out for running
to the right, and dancers will indorse
the statement that the majority Of
movements are far more easily exc
cuted in this direction. The left foot
is the one that is placed in the stir
rup for mounting horse, and in
jumping, it is from the left foot that
the athlete takes of" Thus it will
be seen that, as general rule, right
handed" people are "left-legged."

Public Gifts for Beauty.

Everett II. Barney, millionaire Of
Springfield, MASS, has just decided an
estate and fortune to the city as
the beginning OF scheme of local
Identification. The plans include a
boulevard and park system to extend
two miles along the Connecticut river.
Cooperation is called for on the part
Of the municipality and by the New
York, New Haven & Hartford railroad.
Mr.. Barney's act and William P.
Letchworth's splendid gift Of a park
reservation to the state Of New York,
recorded thus early in 1907, seem to
promise rare turn to the benefac-
tions Of the year. 1t has been charg-
ed that our rich men show no ,,-uag-
nation, but only method in their Civ
ing; that they follow routine though
extremely useful lines of philanthro-
py in endowing colleges, Libraries and
churches. If they are to pay good
deal of attention hereafter to the
promotion Of cities beautiful and to
the preservation Of natures own art
galleries, this point Of criticism will
have to be abandoned.

"FRENZIED FOOLISHNESS.r 2

Just a few lines Of "Frenzied
Foolishpess" dream BY John Flenner
in the Muskogee Times-Democrat:
] dreamed dream the other night,
In this fair Injun land:
| dreamed the water cart was stalled;
The driver he was canned.
/ dreamed they struck another we'll,
About mile from town.
And it gushed with creme de menthe,
And could not be shut down,
Just north Of town there was lake
Of smiling Shandygaffs,
While Coody's creek had widened out
And flowed with "half-and-halfs.p
The water mains ran red with booze;
The Arkansas was wine;
The Katy ponds had turned to beer
And up and down the line;
The eisterns filed with Martins,
Manhattans and highballs;
The fire plugs spurted out champagne
When played on burning walls.
Absinthe frappes and toddys hot
We're served at soda founts,
While pousse cafes and horses necks
Sold well, from all accounts.
Gin rickeys flowed along the streets,
And silver fizzes gay
Popped up like fairy geysers
To help you on your way.
Curaeoas, creme yyettes,
And Mamie Taylors too;
Musty ale and Rhenish wines
Flowed on each avenue.

Italian View Of EnaIish Police.

The English police force does not
shine for its ability IN unrayeling mys-
teries or in arresting daring criminals.
Statistics show that not less than 30.-
900 persons disappear unaccountably
from London every year. In many
other cases these strange vanishings
are direct consequence Of crimes that
in ninety-nine cases out Of a hundred
go unknown or unpunished. When ar
rests do follow, especially in thefts and
burglaries Of Importance, they are in
variably due to Interested betrayal,
which puts the detective On the direct
scent. If there is no informant the
police do nothing. Rome Mesaggero

The Ever Present Problem of Providing

There is one problem that dominates

sun Of prosperity shines warmly today
