Wliut Other Editors Kay. Notes
and Comment* from Our
Exchange Table.
Over in Logan county where
they havo Democratic offieors
the Republicans are vociferous-
ly howling for a ticket to bo
nominated. In Lincoln county
where the otlicers are Republi-
can they don't think the enabl-
ing act gives a right to elect
county officers at the coming
election. Strange how a man's
opinion can be worked by a
a salary.—Chandler Tribune.
The republican stales of Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Montana
and fouth Dakota all deny
regular soldiers and sailors the
right to vote, just as Oklahoma
proposes to do. Of course there
are others, but the six here
mentioned arc sufficient to sliov
the folly of any one knocking
about the constitution disfran-
chising the regulars.—Carney
Enterprise.
If the new state of Oklahoma
is not solidly democratic it will
not be the fault of the present
republican machine, which with
its masterly inactivity is res
ponsible for the horde of first
voters Hocking to the banner of
democracy. If the present con-
ditions continue much longer
some strong and loyal member
of the republican party will
issue a general call for a mass
convention for the purpose of
party organization and the re-
sponse with which such a call '
will meet all over the two terri-
tories will be such as will make
the present regime remember it
all the balance of their days.—
Muskogee (republican) Phoenix.
The Post is for statehood—im
mediate statehood. It has the
sense to realize that we are
going to have a democratic con-
stitution an<1 that the worse it is
the easier amended. No use

I QUEER DIET OF RACCOONS.
' Relish Crabs, Although Naturally a
Race of Fruit Eaters.
I What made the crab-eating raccoon
flrst take to his queer diet? The
question is suggested by a specimen
of this strange animal at a London
menagerie and which is happy to
oblige any generous visitor with an Il-
lustration of the quickest way to kill,
unshell and swallow a crustacean
without artificial assistance of any
j kind. Doubtless the peculiarity origi-
I nated In the shore-fgsquenting habits
I of tho species, and, being a delicate
I feeder, the succulence of the crab,
once cracked, was an obvious induce-
ment to renew his acquaintance on
I every possible occasion.
Originally probably a fruit eater,
