There are a certain class of politi-
cians that pride themselves on stick-
ing to certain issues without change,
and acredit themselves a virtue there-
by. Th *y act on a supposition that
certain principles applied to life are
unchangeable. That is where the
mistake is made. There are very few
fundamental principles of life. It is
doubtful if there are any. This is true
in the abstract, and when it comes to
applying inviolable principles to the
ever changing conditions of a nation,
the application is still more futile.
Conditions change continually. A
nation, or government is always a part
of a greater affinity of governments.

It will be remembered that Robert
Kennon was convicted of larceny at
the February term of the districtcourt
at Enid this year and sentenced to one
year in the penitentiary, says the
Wave. W. 8. Denton, his attorney,
apDealed the case to the ^upreme court
which affirmed the decision of the
court below. Kennon was out on bail
and made his appearance here soon
after the supreme court s decision was
handed down but the sheriff had not
received an official notice of the action
of the court, hence, could not take
charge ef Kennon.

"Death to the murdere." cried

TERRl IVRIAL AMENl l'lES
The appropriation committee of con-
gress recommended #m,40i) for salaries,
$.V)0 contingent expenses and $.' .0r)0
legislative expenses. This is 4he
amount that the federal government
pays for the privilege of having the
power to appoiut a fe v more men to
office than it can in a state. On the
other hand this is the amount of
money tha territory spends without
taking much account of, its legislative
bodies usually voting enough more to
make up the amount it is not responsi-
ble for.
The politicians that intend to run
for the next legislature should take
notice of the amount of the federal ap-
propriation and see if it will not be
enough to bear the ordinary expenses,
leaving some f >-the u«ual luxuries
11KKit U\ AIEW RULES.
It is given out that Speaker Reed is
formulating new rule6 for the house
This must be quite a surprise to the
influences, but it is not. Outside of
its inter relations is a relation of its
particular agreement of people cf
equal civilization.
It is this that political economists
lose sight of when they advocate a
remedy fitted for a nation of 40,000,0<)u
people to that of 75,000,0000. It is in
this that American statesmen fall
short. This country is changing its
relations with the balance of the c;vi-
lized world. Free trade, free silver,
the policy of acquiring no mo'e terri-
tory may be good at one stage of the
country's progress but not at another.
There is a strong opinion against the
annexation of Hawaii on the basis
that this country already has enough
territory. Hut the po icy of a country
is to keep its peculiar civilization in-
tact. In its warfare to do this the
measures necessary at one stage are
uot necessary at another The time
wijl come when this country will tight
for the control of the territory outs'd-
of the I'nited States as well as the Eu-
ropean siates do now, but no one be-
lieves it now.
