The kind of weather Oklahoma Is
enjoying st present will make her
change color In a few days. Wheat
fields are going from green to a gold-
SB yellow.
While people are sympathizing with
the big concerns who have lost finan-
cial ly from the recent floods they
would do well to think of the unfor-
tunate farmers whose crops have been
destroyed. The losses-from damage to
crops are greater than all the others.
The newspapers have been called up-
on to use all of their big type for scars
heads over flood stories recently, but
eince the waters have twbsided, the

given their usual prominence.
If the governor of Kentucky can't

proach to the nation.

OKLAHOMA AT
THE-. EXPOSITION
Preliminary preparation; and the
general Interest tak^n indicate that the
Louisiana Purchase Centennial Expo-
sition; at St. Louis next year, will be
the greatest of ail the expositions yet
j held.
The exposition idea has grown great-
I ly since the World's Fair in Chicago
I In 1893, and the experiences of exhibi-
tors at each one since that time, has
shown that creditable displays of a
state's wealth in natural resource and
her advantage from manufacturing in-
dustries are given advertising in this
manner that can not be secured in
other ways.
Visitors to the expositions talk after
their return home, and the talk of
the things they have seen and as a re-
sult. their neighbors all learn of many
things hither unknown to tnem. In
addition to this; creditable displays
invite newspaper attention and In the
end the state that has made exhibit
of its products reaps a harvest of bene-
fits that is perhaps never realized by
Us citizens
The State Capital calls attention to
these facts at this particular time; be-
cause Oklahoma Is in better shape to
do herself much good at the coming
St. Louis exposition than any other
commonwealth in the United States.
For some time past, Oklahoma has
been a center of interest to the peo-
ple of the states. In less than fifteen
years she has been changed from a
prairie to an immense improved field
of agricnlture. Her cities and towns
have grown and become more pros-
perous and her public Institutions have
taken rank with the best. Her people
have shown the world that here have
been broken all records for growth and
development.
Outsiders were slow to credit Okla-
homa with the natural resource which
has made development so easy and it
may be truthfully said that they still
lack appreciation of the wonderful op-
portunities oflered in the territory
where the north and the south meet,
each contributing its advantages.
The success of those who cast their
lots here has, however, convinced the
east that there must be something solid
behind Oklahoma's growth and it is
turning eyes this way. Because of this,
It is safe to presume that the Oklahoma
exhibit, at the World's Fair next year
will attract greauir attention than
that of any other southwestern com-
monwealth.
The last two territorial legislatures
have made generoua appropriations to
cover the expense of an exhibit at SL
Louis and the World's Fair Commis-
sion has ample funds on hand with
which to make a showing in keeping
with Oklahoma's reputation.
The people of the territory can be
of great assistance in the preparation
of this exhibit however, and should
loose little time in going energetical-
ly to work and putting everything that
can be used to advantage in the hands
of the commissioners.
Samples of the products of the fields,
orchards and gardens, minerals, build-
ing stone, shale, salt, cement and gyp-
sum, mineral waters, petroleum, and
the myriads of other Oklahoma pro-
ducts, with which the eastern folks are
not acquainted, can be secured in each
locality, by citizens and forwarded to
the commission, and it n* a work in
which each Oklanoman should display
Interest
A complete exhibit of all of the pro-
be the best possible evidence of the
ducts and resources of Oklahoma will
6e a revelation to the uniiiated and
sure foundation on which Oklahoma's
development is based. It would be very
hard to estimate the benefits It will
bring but there can be no question that
they will justify more effort than it
it necessary to make.
The people of Oklahoma should take
hold of the matter with their charac-
teristic energy for It offers an oppor-
tunity to servo the territory.
If there la a human of male persua-
sion in Oklahoma whose life has had in
It most things generally considered r -
pudsive to women, that Individual is

thief, bigamist, Jallbreaker, and mur-
derer. Yet more ladies call at the fed-
eral jail and shower him with flowers

LICENSE LED
TO RESTRAINT
It psys to be decent. The town of
Bremerton, Washington, Is just learn-
ing that truth through a series of ex-
periences which leave no doubt as to
the value of virtue. Some months ago
the navy department discovered that
the Bremerton people were not con-
tent with profiting from the wages paid
to workmen at the naval repair sta-
tion there, but were eager to secure
also the pay of the sailors detained
there by reason of the work on the
vessels to which they were attache*.
So with a recklessness and license sel-
dom before displayed the locsl author-
| lties granted permits for the location
of liquor saloons within close prox-
imity c€ tho naval establishment,
while they winked at the enterprise
of the keepers of gambling houses and
eveu worse dives who sought to gath-
er in whatever of sea pay tho barten-
ders might overlook. The consequence
was that few vessels left Bremerton
yard without losing large numbers of
their sailors through desertions, while
the brigs of the ships were filled with
delinquents, charged with various of-
fenses, and the discipline of the crews
was decidedly lowered. After a few ef-
forts to persuade the Bi^iaerton mun-
icipal authorities of their duty in the
premises the department's patience was
finally exhausted and orders were is-
sued that vessels be no longer sent to
Bremerton for repairs save in the most
urgent cases of emergency. The sa-
loon and dive keepers found that their
trade had fallen off. This respectable
lines of business likewise lost heavily.
Bremerton suffered as from a blight.
Then arose the leading citizens, fear-
ful of the future, and bestirred them-
selves in the cause of municipal rec-
titude. They began to talk sharply to
the members of the council who had
persisted in issuing licenses regardless
of the mayor's protests, and public
sentiment, dormant during the days of
fictitious prosperity, began to rise in
Indignation A reform movement set
in, and in consequence there has been
a general clearing cut of the dives and
the naval authorities are relenting and
perhaps in time Bremerton may be re-
ceived again into the official fold.
EDUCATION OF
THE COLONISTS
It has been a commonplace of Amer-
ican history that the founders of the
English colonies were men of consid-
erable education. Tho early annaia
are full of evidences of the fact, not
only that there were many university
graduates, but that, what is more im-
portant. most of the first settlers in
New England had a thorough ground-
ing in the elementary branches of
learning. Just what their schooling
consisted in, however, has been a ques-
tion frequently asked, but not satis-
factorily answered. Many attempts
have been made to describe the be-
ginnings of the American public
school, but each fails in the essential
particular of telling what and how the
seventeenth-century schools taught
the children. The difficulty has been
that no one has investigated with suf-
ficient care the old English schools in
which the colonial settlers received
their first lessons, and which they un-
dertook to re-establish in America. The
solution of the puzzle is due to Prof.
Foster Watson of the university col-
lege of Wales, who has for some years
been gathering notes on early English
text books. His description of these,
"The Curriculum and Text-books of
English Schools in the first half of the
Seventeenth Century," published in
the Transactions of the Bibliographical
Society (London, February, 1903), is a
very important contribution to an un-
derstanding of the intellectual equip-
ment of the people who left England In
and after 1607, 1620 and 1630. Pro-
fessor Watson shows that the notes of
sermons, In shorthand, in abstract, In
heads, In commentary, which bulk so
largely In every collection of the "re-
mains" of colonial times, were not
merely an expression of the intense
religious interest of the period, but
were a direct result of school training,
which required the pupils, as a part
of the regular school exercise, to re-
produce tho weekly sermons. "Be-
sides." as Orinsley explains, in his "Lu-
dua Literarius. or tho Grammar School'
published in 1612, "it will keep them
from playing, talking, sleeping, and all
other disorders in the church. To this
end, therefore, pose diligently all those
whom you observe or suspect most
negligent; then you will have them to
attend heedfully." And, further, tha'
there may be no possible doubt that
the stern Puritans, in thoir youth, re
sembled some of their remote descen
dants. "there must be great care by the
monitors, that they trouble not their
fellows , nor the congregation, in ask-
ing notes, or stirring out of their places
to seek one another, or any other dis-
order." Professor Watson Is planning
to organize an "Early Text-book Re-
print Society" to reproduce tho more
significant of these guides to what the
seventeenth century knew. It is to be
hoped that he will receive ample sup-
port from American libraries and stu-
dents. to which these should appeal
, quite as much as to English students
o! history and education.

CHANGES IN THE PRESBYTERIAN
Galveston News.
By the more important changes of the
Presbyterian creed made at Los Angeles,
one article is amended «o aa to admit more
clearly that salvation Is a matter of the
Individual's choice, and to soften the old
predestination idea, while another allows
that the work of salvation may be accom-
plished by the spirit "when, where and
how he pleases," and that thus the church
does not assert thut those who die in In-
fancy are lost.
1'he main difficulty, as heretofore ex-
plained. wa.s with th. so-called doctrine of
infant damnaUnn. The < ld confeauion by
'implication appeared to teach that titers
weie at leant some non-fleet Infants,
though there wor* f„w Presbyttrians who
believed it. So it is well that this point
should be eleared up. The new article Is
aa follows:
Thut concerning those who are saved in
Christ, the doctrine of God's eternal de-
crree is held In harmony with the doctrine
>f his love to all mankind; . . . tha.'^i
Ls not to be regarded is teaching that any
who die In Infancy are Included in the
election of grace and are regenerated and
sav-d by Christ through the Spirit, who
works where end how he ph ases.
While the letter of the confession re-
mains almost the same it is generally
agreed that ltf spirit Is materially altered.
That is to say, while, since the earliest
history of rPesbytt iinn ism Its rigorously
orthodox preachers have taught, as a
nec-asary corollary of the church's doc-
tt in. of Cod's omni e and fon know*?
edge, that some were born to be damm u,
and with inflexible consistency have in-
cluded infants as well as adults in both
th"se classes, the changes made practic-
ally render such teaching imposible by de-
claring tll.it Qoflfl tOtt knowledge id nfl|
Inharmonious with !.is love for all man-
kind; that "men are fully responsible lyr
thelr treatment of God's gracious offer,
that his decree hind'-rs no man from ac-
cepting that offer, and that no man Is
sin." Finally, the Inference of infant
damnation from the doctrine of foreknowl-
edge is expressly repudiated. "We he-
li' \" " rays the new need, "that all dyi/g
In Infancy are Included In the election *
grace and are regenerated and saved by
Christ through the Spirit, who works
where and how ho pleases."
The opinion thus expressed Is that each
individual who has attained the age of
responsibility will, after death, be judged
solely by his own faith and works, and
that all who die before attaining that ago
will be saved,
it may be that the Presbyterian church
"has not changed Its base one inch." as
Dr. Henry C. van Dyke, chairman of the
committee on bills and overtures, asserted,
and that the chuTch has merely "broad-
ened and strengthened its foundations."
but no one reading the amendments adopt
ed. with a full understanding of their sig-
nificance. can deny that some of them at^-
material changes In the old creed.
HOW DID YOU DIE7
With a resolute heart and cheerful.
Or hide your face from the light of day
With a craven soul and fearful?
Oh, a trouble s a ton, or a trouble an
ounce.
Or a truuble Is what you make It,
And it Isn't the fact that you're hurt that
counts.
But only how did you take it?
You nre beaten to earth? Well, well,
what's that?
Come up with a smiling face.
It's nothing against you to fall down flat,
Hut to lie there—that s disgrace.
The hi rder you're thrown, why, the higher
you'll bounce;
Re proud of your blackened eye!
It Isn't the fact that you're licked that
counts:
It's how did you fight—and why?
And though you be done to the death,
what then?
If you battled the best you could.
If you pjpyed your part In tho world of
men,
Why. the Critic will call it good.
Death com* s with a crawl, or conn s with
a pounce,
And Whether he's slow OS spry
It isn't the fact that you're dead tl\aj
counts.
But only how did von die?

CHANCE FOR DOLLAR WHEAT.
Washington Post.
While there is a suspicion that the So-
ciety of Equity, recently organised at
Indianapolis for the purpose f urging
farmers to hold their wheal for high
prices is slmplv a plan to coll.ct money
from farmers for membership in the or-
ganisation, there are many Indications
that the faimer may realise a dollar a
bushel for his wheat before the end of
the present > ear. or very carl, in ne xt.
Officials of the department of agricul-
ture have been securing data c mce rnlng
the probable wheat crop of the nation
for the coming season, and th. demands
that will be made upon it at home and
from abroad. While the department will
not make any prediction as to trend of
prices for the great staple cereal, its ex-
perts admit that the as.-ur.d demand will
bring the crop of 1903 to the market at
record-breaking prices.
It is too early to make anything like
an accuiate estimate of the wh.at pro-
duction for the coming harvest but ev-
ery indication points to a bumper crop In
ail of the wheat-producing states l'n-
der ordinary conditions this would press-
age lower prices for wlo.it and Its pro-
