THE BRAVE FIREMAN.
The fire company of a city lik<
Shawnee is not, as a rulo, appreciated
by the property owners ns they should
be. At least, if they are, little evi-
dence Is given of it, as we go along
through life. We arc of those who
believe in scattering roses along the
path of those who deserve them as
we go through life. It Is a pretty cus-
tom that admonishes us to strew
flowers over the graves of the dead, but
how much sweeter and enjoyable
would life be if some of the good
thoughts and words expressed In
praise of those who go to their long
home were scattered along through
life. So It Is with our lire laddies.
We praise them when something oc-
curs that awakens us to a sense of
appreciation, but this as a rule Is the
limit.

"A convention Is being held In
Muskogee this week to plan for state-
hood for the proposed state of Jecer-
son, which is to comprise the country
so many years occupied by the clvi
lied Indian nations. Thpsc Indians
feel that the> are able to maintain a
state. And so they are, but there is
well founded opposition to the making
of any more small states, and the pro-
posed state would be somewhat small
among its sisters. There never can
be any separate state for the Indiana,
and they ought to join wth their
brothers in Oklahoma demanding
statehood for the two territories as
one state."
The above Is from the National
Daily Review of Chicago, and the sen
timent is good, but evidently there is
a lack of information upon the true
conditions in Indian Territory. What
Is the matter with the Indians of the
territory Joining with the white men
of Indian Territory? Should they go
to Oklahoma to join hands with their
•white brothers when there are almost
as "many of him" right here as there
are In Oklahoma? Of course "It is
