the proportion of family population

square mile. The average densiiv
i>f these live states is I litis sent to be
;»i people to the square mile, whereas,
according lo the lat'-st estimates,
Oklahoma has about lti people to the
square mile. U is therefore seen
that, fr.nn the standpoint of the den-
sity of population, Oklahoma has
received consideration out of all pro-
portion to even the most favored of
her neighbors

The tirst jrreat step toword the cor-

recognition of the faci that roatl im-

larger interest in n1""' roads than any

CHICKENS COME Hi >ME TO ROOST
The race t|ccstion which the tlemo-
crats have been nursing with great
hopes, for months past, is going to
prove a very worrysome thing for
them. With a view to working on the
.prejudices of the people, a great {show
of being terribly shocked and insulted,
on account of President Roosevelt
inviting Hooker Washington to lunch
with liim has been kept running
t hrough the papers and an effort made
to have it appear that the president
by his action had intentionally
affrouleil the people of the soul ti. It
has been noticed that Judge
Parker seems ery anxious lo steer
clear of the question thus raised and
now it. is known thai colored people
living in the vicinity of Judge
Parker's home are members of the
same church and partake of the com-
munion Iron) the same cup in tin1
church where the democratic candi-
date takes up the collection.
Now while this i> not reported as a
dcspat'ageincol of Judge Paikerit will
tend to open the eves of the people to
tile liollowness «if the race prejudice
issue thus attempted by democrats,
with the view to making President
Roosevelt odious In the minds ot the
people.
The; lace question will never be
settldd by appeal to prejudice.

0KLAHOMAN CUTS OUT STAT£-
HOOd.
The f >s lahoman "'put its toot in it"
and crawled after it on the statehood
issue, In its issue of t.he H it says:
"The election of i-'rank Mathews,
therefore, can not possibly affect
the bill, so far as action before the
senate at. the fort hcoming session of
congress is concerned. When he
reaches congress, in I he event of his
elect ion, i tie bill will have been defin-
itely disposed of one way or another."
I'hi.s t he principil Matthews organ
admits that i hi*elect mil of the candi-
date will have no etTectol) statehood
tegeslat ion and the question may ho
eleminated as far asttie d?mi cratic
party it concerned. Well so lie it;
llut as we w II want some t hings after
the passage of t lie Hamilton hill, we
will ju*t send Hird Motiuire hack
another term to get them for us.
About 1(H) Americans have gone

In Philadelphia the Associated
Carpenters are having a scrimmage
with the Amalgamated Carpenters
andithe Itrotherhood of Carpenters to
determine which shall do a certain
job of work. They have applied to
the local courts for injunction bills to
prevent each other from interfering.
They are down on government by in-
junction—in other cases.
