viii Report Blanket Primary.

Through tine courtesy of Hon. c.
n. Haskell we have been authorized
to state that a blanket primary law
will be reported from his committee
on primaries and elections this week;
that all parties vii. be compelled TO
nominate their candidates for office
in the state Of Oklahoma in that pri-
mary; and that the wish Of the pco-
pie will be expressed for candidates
for United States senators. The
committee report 6tll recommend
that the day for holding this prl-
mary shall be the seventh Saturday
after the closing of the convention.
We understand that it will also be
recommended that the first state
election be held early in June. We
don't believe that this date will suit
the people as well as ID it was placed
in August We believe that there
would be a larger vote cast by the
rank and file of the state If the cleo
tion was held al this latter date.
There has been such an urgent de
mand made upon this committee for
an early election In order that the
people may be rid Of misrule and
carpct-bag officials and have a voice
in their own government, that the
earlier date Of June has been fixed.

Cooperation Threats arl the "Jim

The matter of discussing what
President Roosevelt intends To- do in
the way OF signing or not signing the
constitution as adopted by the con
ycuuou. Is a very delicate one Tel.
egrams have been sent TO the daily
press from Washington that the
president would not sigu the constitu-
tion If the provision was placed
therein for prohibitiug corporations
from importing into the state non
residents to serve as armed guards or
officers in the protection OF corpora.

protect all classes Of its citizens. The

ing down of the constitution has been
sent out in relation to the incorpora-
tiun of Jim Crow provision in

a resolution will be drafted exactly

legislative enactment, to insure IT,
and To redeem the promise that the
Democratic party made TO the people,
this clause should be incorporated in
our constitution. provided it will not
endangcr the coming Of statehood.
This is serious question, and the
effort of the Republican party to
bring about the defeat of statehood
through the use Of any such means,
is one that the people will in no way
sanction. We believe that the corpo-
rate interests backed by the federal
officials. the carpet.baggers, and many
disgruntled Republican politicians in
Oklahoma are at this time organizing
20 defeat the constitution, and If
they can prevail upon President
Roosevelt i'm any manner to bring
this about, they will certainly do it.
and If their efforts fail with him,
they will make an organized attempt
at the polls to vote down the best
constitution that has ever been writ
ten in the United States.
The Republican party has fostered
the trusts, and been under the control
Of corporations so long that they will
not tolerate the formation of a new
state where the peoples rights are
protected in every instance, without
a battle in favor of the interests up
on which that party absolutely de-
pends for existence.
We want the rank and file of this
great state, irrespective of party, to
rise in their might and vote for the
constitution. Let every man who
loves Oklahoma, who has worked
years and years for statehood, ana
who has, been oppressed and robbed
by the carpet-baggers and by corpora
tions, rally to the support of the De
mocratic party in this convention,
that will give TO the people consti-
tuition which will forever protect
them in their rights,

This is the substitute introduced by
Delegate Leahy and adopted by the
convention. It was considered Of such
importance that It was taken from tho
general provisions and incorporated
in the bill Of rights This gives to
the state the right to protect its cit
liens against the encroachment of or
ganized monopolics. Under this sec
tion all the natural resources Of the
state can be owned and developed by
the state itself.
The Republican press bureau, true
to its friendship to corporations, has
hcralded to all the papers of the Re
publican party that this is a scheme
to furnish pie" for the Democratic
offce-scoker5. If this provision had
been in the Kansas constitution, the
cncroachment of the Standard Oil
company upon the independent oil
producers in Kansas would today be
at an end.

THE "TERRAPIN SCALE"
CAUSING MUCH DAMAGE.
This Fruit Tree Pest Report
ed from All Over the
Country.

Washington, May 1S.-From every
State east of the Mississippi river,
and from Missouri, Arkansas, Louis
lana, Texas and the province of On
tario, Canada, the terrapin scale, the
enemy of the peach and other trees,
has been reportd to the Department
of Agriculture. Specimens of the pests
from all that territory have been re-
ceived by the Bureau of Entomology.
The department, in a circular has
called attention to the terrapin scale,
in consequence of its wide range of
food plants, including both wild and
cultivated trees, as a dangerous pest,
(which may be controlled but never
eradicated." Small, parasitic four
winged flies are the greatest benefac-
tors in the control of this insect, and
kerosene emulsion has proven an eff
fective remedy.
The Government experts show that
lime sulphur wash, so effective with
the San Jose scale and the peach leaf
scale, is worthless for the terrapin
scale
