Brother Woodward, of the
Kingfisher Times now admits
that he has learned what every-
body has known for seventy-five
years—that tho “Colonels” and
"Majahs,” of the south are a
real menace to everything in
which they take a hand. He is
right in an onslaught in his last
issue when he-says;
4‘It can not be denied that the
democratic party iii Oklahoma
has been dominated altogether
too much by the Longhorns.
This has brought the party to
the verge of defeat in the the
state. It is not a good policy
for a northern democrat to first
make such charges and thus
“croate faction in party” but
when southern democrats begin
to parade their claims of com
mand and shout it from the
house tops as is done by the
“Ardraorite” it is about time
that the northern democrats be-
gun to assert their equal rights
within the party counsels.
That the northern democrats
have been too quiet and unas-
suming within the party, and
have conceded too much to the
jloud mouthed and aggressive,
southerners, has been perhaps
their greatest mistake. They
have allowed the southerner to
give too much southern charac-
ter and color to the party: to
turn the party’s attention toold,
dead and rot ton southern issues
and so divert its attention from
the living issues of the present
day.
While the natural democracy
has been winning rock ribbed
and time immemorial republican
strongholds on live and vital is
Wios, we in Oklahoma have been
loosing ground and prestige and
btunding, scrapping with Sambo
and the Socialists.
The democratic party in Okla
homa has not kept abreast with
the thought of the nation. While
we have been Jim crowing ami
grandfathering, Arizona,Oregon
California, New Jersey and in
fact the whole nation have pass*
ed beyond usraud now wo will
have to hump ourselves to catch
up. In the rapid race before us
there is a lot of dead freight to
discard and a lot of handicap to
get rid of. About the first thing
the party should throw in the
discard is this same obnoxious
arrogance of certain southern
democrats.
Wo are in favor of a presiden-
tial primary, and permitting tho
honest rank and file detnoorats
in Red Biver Region as well as
elsewhe re to express their pref
erence; rath er than to send a
bunch of “Colonels” and “Ma-
jahs” to the national convention
to trade us off .like livo stock.

Those Torn Papers
Last week we were obliged to
send odt a number of toru pap-
ers to our readers much to our
dissatisfaction. It was because
the western newspaper union has
an employe inito forgo.ht Okla
-
dee.
The pivjHi’n in, or so:ns one in
Mispress room, is not giving bon
est work, woyk that holps Ids
employers . t^rsekitT- business.
For some lUrife ^ have been
throwing out frorti, three of four
to a dozen or inatejRkn papers
and last week- we ffjfepd 58 of
them. We cuToutTK^our ex-
changes to get good papers for
our subscribers, and then used
some of the torn ones to go a
round.

Okeene Lecture Course.
The next number (4th) of the
Lecture Course will be. The
Meisteraingers Male Quartette,
and Organ Chime. From the
many Press Opi .ions we select
tbo following:
The concert by the Meistersin-
gers last night was a great suc-
cess. Seldom has a musical or-
ganization appeared on the Chau-
tauqua program here that has
been accorded a more enthusias
tic reception than the qurrtette
received From their first ap-
pearance, tin til their farwell last
night numbers were attended
with applause. The quartette
is made up of men who have a
reputation on the platform, and
they are not only good quartette
singers, but eich one Is a soloist
'of no in*>as*mcri&aswell. Their
work as a quartette will be re
membered with pleasure-.—Mail,
