It is a peculiar situation, but no less

the republicans as to their attitude
towards the constitution made by the
democrats. It Is no less true, too,
that many of th democrats are pre-

METHODISTS MAY UNITE.
The Methodist Episcopal churches,
both North and South, are gradually
but surely uniting. The laymen uf
both branches held a big banquet In
this state the other day, at which the
prevailing sentiment was for consol-
idation of Interests. Oklahoma prom-
ises to he the center from which this
new Idea will spread, for It Is here that
both churches have united In support-
ing one university, which was unknown
In the history of the two factious of
the Methodist church before the found-
ing of Epworth University. The on-
ly hitch at present appears to be the
large amount of property, such as
church buildings and the like, held by
each church, and the question of what
to do with the extra number of pastors
that would follow consolidation. Both
difficulties, however, are In a good way
to be overcome before many more
years, and the Methodist church will
then be doubly strong and thoroughly
united after many years of division
into the North and South branches.
FOR SELLING INDIANS LIQUOR.
The recent wholesale arrests made

for selling Indians liquor promises to

restrictions the red man has always
been able to pet firewater in most
any city of the United States and even
on his own reservation from boot-
leggers and the like. When the In-
dian becomes Intoxicated he Is tho
most pjtlful piece of humanity on
earth, but be must have his booze
nevertheless, t..e same as a white
man. The Indian question promises
to become very complicated after
statehood when they are given citizen
ship. Already steps have been taken
by some of the Indians to gain abso-
lute control of their property, without
any restrictions, on the ground that
