I For Congress and the Constitution. || — ~ v
% Joe M LaHav, Democrat, * Buster Brown's resolution after a fright
"* he gave Tige and his aunt Dolly with his
pumpkin Jack-o-lantern:
Resolved
That it was cowardice that made them
run. Cowardice in animals is because
they cannot reason, but in men it is a
guilty conscience or base ignorance.
What perfectly good man need be a-
fraid—"As you do unto others, they
will do unto you." Try it some day.
Start out with your liver allright and be
kind to every one, use a smile and the
glad hand on 'em and see if they
don't all do the same to you. A soft an-
swer turoeth away wrath, and puts it out
of business—don't be afraid of any thing
but your self. Now let's see if I can do
it! BUSTER.

Do you want Separate Statehood? Vote
for what, you want regardless of railroad ]
advice. Do you want joint statehood?
then vote against the constitution of Se-
quoyah. The more votes cast the better I
the chances for statehood separate or j
joint.
Fresh and salt meats, fish
and oysters. Highest
marxet prices paid for
bttter, eggs, poultry,.and
hides and furs.
W. H. HEADORS.
The vote on November 7th for the con-
stitution of the state of Sequoyah will
determine in a large measure the voting
population of Indian Territory. If con-
gress admits Sequoyah, as some believe
will be done, then this vote will deter-
mine the voting strength of counties and
the wish of the people as to county seats.
If congress makes a joint state, as
some believe will be done, this vote,
whether Yes or No, will be used to de-
termine the relative representation of In-
dian Territory in a joint Constitutional
Convention. Whether you are in favor
of Sequoyae, or whether you are in favor
of JoiutStatehood, you will realize the
force of this position.
Your vote FOR the constitution is safe
whether statehood comes jointly or sep-
arately.

Indian Territory has today twice as
much taxable property and population as
any new state ever admitted to the Union,
and yet the single staters say we can't
take care of ourselves.
The plan of Czar has failed, as al
such selfish plans finally fail. His was
t'.ie plan of special privileges to a f wand
unequal rights to all. Nothing fails like
failure and a policy like the Czar's ever
has been a failure though at times we ex-
claim the mills of the gods grind stone
but we always conclude that they grind
exceedingly tine.
The Czar had the rope and hung him
self. Sin will always defeat itself and
like the glutton die with the gout. The
history of nations and all organizations
of mankind down to individuals proves
the truthfullness of these old adages
The foundation of a government or in-
dividual must be the eternal justice or
they fall under their own weight. Such
a foundation gets the popular approval
and support of the people.
How contrasted is the war of Russia
and Japan with that of the Spanish Am
erican and too what a contrast of the
United States policy to control the west
ern continant. No country of this con-
tinent fears Old Glory and the Monroel
doctrine, and even the countries of the
East conceed to its policy becaus it is
equal rights to all and special to none.
The United States may have some faults
in its government methods and the laws
may be wroughfully administrated by
some who are of the Czar's make up, but
we arc on the right track and don't have
to wait for office holders to die oil' before
we can have a hcuse cleaning. If there
is anything in the signs of the times the
world to day is "going some "in the eter-
nal fitness of things.
Freemans moving picture show will ex-
hibit here again the first of next week.
