Oklahoma City, Nov 9-Mr. MUIR
ray has just secured the $4,000 names
necessary to petition, whereby the
initiative measure regarding the sale
of all public school lands may be pre-
sented to the people.
This is only one OF Alfalfa Bills"
many evidences of enterprise and hus-
tie. One OF the paramount planks OF
the democratic platform in the cam
paign of last year, when the question
OF the adoption of the state constitu-
ton and the election of state officers
were the issue. was that declaring the
party to be in favor of the sale of the
state. school lands and against aEsys-
tenn of tenantry, but the plank did not
give any advice as to the date of sale.
The school lands, comprising 2,050,000
acres. are situated on the side of the
state which was originally Oklahoma
territory, and from that side OF the
state about half of the members of the
legislature were elected. Many of
them were given the toga of office be-
cause OF their promise to advocate "a
bill providing for the sale of the school
lands. The lessee vote was about
$4,000, and it represented a population
Of about $4,000. Some of the lessees
had held their lands for years and
made extensive improvements upon
them as well as Increased their value
through cultivation.
The first state Legislature had its
hands full Of other things and failed
to enact a law providing for the sale of
the school lands. This incensed large
percentage Of the voting Iessees and
likewise many Of their land -owning
voting neighbors. The legislature was
overwhelmingly democratic and had
waded into deep water, or rather into a
net from which extraction was a pug
Ele. Lessees called on the governor and
made their demands. The governor was
their friend. Be 1t said to Governor

The Ideal Republic.

I can conceive of national destiny
surprising the glories of the present
and the pasta destiny which meets
the responsibilities of today and meas
ures up the possibilities of the future.
Behold a republic, resting securely
upon the foundation stones quarried
by revolutionary patriots from the
mountain of eternal truth-a republic
applying in practice and proclaiming
to the world the self evident PROPOSE
ton that all men are created equal:
that they are endowed with inalienable
rights; that governments are institu-
ted among men to secure these rights;
that governments derive their just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned
Behold a republic in which civil and
religious liberty stimulate all to earn
est endeavor, and in which the law re-
strains every hand uplifted for a
neighbours injury-a republic in which
every citizen is sovereign, but in
which no one cares to wear a crown.
Behold republic standing erect,
while empires all around are bowed
beneath the weight of their own arma.
ments-a republic whose flag is loved,
while other flags are only feared.
Behold republic increasing in pop
ulation, in wealth, in strength and in
influence, solving the problems of civil
lization and fastening the coming of a
a universal brotherhood-a republic
which shakes thrones and dissolves
aristocracies by it's silent example,
and gives light and inspiration to
those who sit in darkness.
Behold a republic, gradually but
surely becoming the supreme moral
factor in the worlds progress and the
accepted arbiter of the worlds dis
putes-a republic whose history, like
the path of the just, els as the shin
ming light that shineth more and more
unto the perfect day. William ).

The Democracy Of the Home.

It is not necessary to be great to be
happy; it is rot necessary to be rich
to be just and generous and to have a
heart filled with divine affection. No
matter whether you are rich or poor,
treat your wife as though she were a
splendid flower, and she will FL. your
life with perfume and with joy.
And do you know, it is a splendid
thing to think that the woman you
really love will never grow old to you.
Through the wrinkles of time, through
the mask of years, if you really love
her, yeu will always see the face you
loved and won. And woman who
really loves man does not see that
he grows old; he is not decrepit tc
her; he does not tremble; he is not
old; she always sees the same gallant
gentleman who won her hand and
heart. I like to think of it in tha'
way; I like to think that love is eter
nal. And to love in that way anc
thengo down the hill of life together
and as you go down, hear, perhaps
the laughter of grandchildren, while
the birds of JOY and love sing once
more in the leahess branches of the
tree of age.
I believe in the freside. I believe il
the democracy of the home. believe il
the republicanism of the family. 1 be-
lieve in liberty, equality and love.

The modern progressive city is al
ways busily at work devising some
way in which its trade and commerce
can be expanded, but an investigation
will show that the large and smaller
cities alike adopt practically the same
method of trade building, which can
be summed up in few words-the
making of city good and attractive
business point for the country all
about it. Large cities aim to draw
from wider territory than the smaller
ones, and it does this by Offering the
trading public inducements o. one
kind or another.-Winoua Republican.

eff this congress does not revise the
tariff, then the next congress will.
The people will attend to thatpart OF
the question.
This was the observation made by
James J. Hill last week when asked
for an expression Of his views on Mr..
Carnegie's declaration against pro-
tective tariff, particularly on steel.
''The members of the congressional
committee are simply piling up trouble
for themselves" said Mr.. Hill. 'Our
people out in the Northwest have not
been down to Washington to give
their ideas before the committee, but if
the gentlemen of the committee want to
know the views of the West and North
west let them go out there to the peo-
pie and they will learn very quickly, "

He paid fine of SIS and costs the next

is 1T WORTH THE COST?

That is the question that will arise
to plague Cummins. Will it pay the
extra cost of an extra session of the
legislature merely to further the am
bition of one man and that man Albert B.
Cummins. A great many people are say
ing that no real emergency exists, such
that would justify the assembling of the
legislature of a great state. Why not
appoint successor to Allison and then
let the next Legislature elect man?
What is the sense in calling a special
session? We do not pretend to know
anything about state craft, but from a
democratic standpoint we would expect
this act of Cummins to make the state
democratic.
But it is not likely that it will. 1t
seems that Cummins can do anything
he pleases and it viii! be approved in
some sort of fashion by the people of
Iowa. The pitcher may go to the
fountain once too often and it may be
broken at last, but on the other hand,
it may make Cummins senator. And
if it does, then there will be weeping
and wailing and gnashing of teeth.
| But this is a fact, and we need not
try to deny it or rub it, the hand the
republicans played at their peace con,
ference was daring one and it looks
like good one. If this fight were
among democrats, they would fight tt
the last ditch, but you know how re
publicans always get together. The,
light like cats and dogs for 1854 day.
and harmonic on election day. The,
are funny set, but they have Ut
democrats skinned a mile on working
up harmony. The extra session Of tn,
legislature would damn us, but it ma,
be the making of Cummins. We con
fess we do not know.-W Washington
