President Roosevelt has given
out a statementin which he says
he will approve the Oklahoma
constitution. He says it is not
matter in which he ought to
exercise his personal veiws. but
question whether the document
conforms to the requirements
of the enabling act which gave
power to the convention which
wrote the document. The at
torney general of the United
States says that it does. Con-
sequently, as soon as it is ap-
proved and as soon as the proc
clamation is issued the dem
ocratic Offices elect will take
their respective Offices and the
republican federal regime will be
at an end forever in Oklahoma.
We have read their constitu-
ton and from our stand point
they have very good one and
of which the people of that state
will feel prouder each year. 1t
is true there are several new
features in the document which
have never before been tried
particularly the initiative and re-
ferendum. 1t is now up to the
legislature to enact statutes in
conformity with this document
and it may take several years to
suit the needs of the people.
The reason that impresses us
most strongly that it is a good
document is the fact that 1t re-
ceived nearly 100000 majority.
The convention which wrote it
was overwhelmingly democratic
mostly of southern
democrats at that mostly from
Texas, and we want to say that
if Oklahoma follows the example
of the state of Texas that they
will not make many mistakes in
their laws and everyone regard
less of politics will be proud that
thew live in such a state.

Haskell county and the mort

Haskell county and the north
west part of Meade county are
being asked to vote bonds for a
railroad. We predict that if
they do. they will be sorry for it
before five years. Meade coun-
ty still has a railroad debt hang
sng over her head since the last
boom days. These bonds are
easily voted but considerably
harder to pay. We are decidedly
opposed to voting these kind of
bonds and can give some good
reasons why, if necessary.
