Haskell SnubS Roosevelt.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct. c.
Gov. Haskell, whose quarrel with
Theodore Roosevelt is of long stand
ing, has beaten the former President
to it for once.
In n sarcastic letter he has de-
clined an invitation to deliver a
speech at the Arkansas State Fair
on October 0, giving as his reason
that Roosevelt will be there. He de-
clared that he would not sit on the
same platform with Roosevelt.
"Col. Roosevelt does not come to
the people today" Gov. Haskell
wrote, with any other purpose than
TO attract them to his personal
standard and that their support may
gratify his boundlcss ambition"
The Governor declared that the
former President can declare war
&with less hesitation and follow It
Jmore quickly with abjcct surrender
than any living American

Cnpcrs to Organize New Party.

Columbia, Oct. S.-The letter of
National Committeeman John G.
Capers to certain Republicans, sug-
gesting a State Convention to be
held In Columbia, Is taken here to
mean that an effort will surely be
made to rid from the organization
not only the black element, but also
those white men who have affiliated
with the negroes to large extent.
1t Is freely predicted that J. w. Toll
bert and his followers will lose out
and that the organization will be
made over anew.
1t is believed that instructions
have come from Washington to form
so-called lily white Republican
party, as has been done in Alabama,
North Carolina and other States. Re-
publicans are Of the opinion that,
with respectable organization, the
ranks will be recruited with Demo-
Gratis. To be sure some Democrats
would join the party, and in time
the organization might be formida-

In the meantime the efforts Of
Capt. Capers to perfect his organi-
zation will be watched with interest.
