The Negro double staters have

up a semblance of enthusiasm.
The lubricating oil ran out and
also the chop suey. Nothing

famous that of doing things
and doing them well.
Thon is not a single Negro on
he Territorial Executive Com-
mittee. This is wrong and some
one is responsible for the 200.000
Negroes of the Indian and Ok-
lahoma Territories not being
represented on either committee
Retribution will come.
The Negro preacher who has
a few Negro dupes digging
around over the country hunt-
ing g ilil -is a fraud and is rob-
I bing the poor ignorant cusses of
their hard earnings he ought to
be placed behind the bars for
I safe keeping. It will save some
of the Xegro dimes from starva-

Quito a number of colored
men received letters notifying
them that Dr. Washington
would be hero on Nov. 11th but
some of them were too modest
to rush into print claiming that
they wore specially selected to
bo honored. The message was
to all of the colored citizens of
Booker T. Washington one
of tho greatest Americans and
the greatest living Negro will
be in great Muskogee on Nov.
11th and Avill address the citi-
zens. Mr. Washington will ar-
rive at d:17 p.m. and leave at
9:515 ). m. This will give the
colored people of this locality as
well as the white and red a
chance to see the. man about
whom there has been so much
talk and who is doing such a
great work for his people.
The Democrat in a recent is-
sue claims that a Negro wench
touched a white man the other
night to the tune of J0 while he
was walking homo. Midge
rot the cuss we don't know
who ho was but it sounds awful
thin and looks to us like some
white cuss has been trying to
practice social equality with
whai he afterwards terms a Ne
gro wench and the woman got
what she was after his pocket-
book. This is not the first case
here of that kind.
