a brandy shop ninl was a drunkard be
ln fouud dead lu bed one uiorniu;
after a night lu which he had drunk
two quarts of brandy.
"Had he a wife?" aHked the doctor
"Yes."
"What character does she bear?"
"She bore a very good character only
the neighbors gossiped because she
married the day after her husband's
funeral. She still live hew."
The doctor soon called on the woman.
He askod for and received the particu-
lars of the death of her first husband.
Suddenly opening his handkerchief he
ahowed her the telltale nail asking In
a loud voice:
"Madam do you know this nail?"
The woman was so surprised that
she confessed and was tried and exe-
cuted. Night Window Shopping.
"I used to think the money spent for
light In show windows from closing
time till morning was wasted" said a
Fifth avenue merchant "but I have
changed my mind about It and now I
keep my windows lighted until 3 u. m.
every night but Sunday. I took the
trouble to make some Investigations as
to the value of shop windows before I
changed my method. I found that In
daytime when the streets are filled no
one has time for more than a glance at
the displays. Hut at night and partic-
ularly Into at night while there are
fewer people out they are not in a
hurry and many of them stop to exam-
ine critically the goods shown. 1 have
frequently seen men and women too
who were window shopping before my
place at night Inside buying the thing's

York keep themselves posted on fash-
Ions and on what is to be had iu the
stores by 'window shopping.' "New

Man and ths Horse.
Men are apt to nay severe things of
the absurdities to which many women
will submit at the behest of fashion
but really they are every bit as bad.
A good horse has n naturally arched
neck an inferior one has not. But the
owner of the latter must pretend that
his sorry steed Is blessed with blood
and to effect the deceit he slaps ou a
monstrous bearing rein and defies pub-
lic opinion. A London carman who
Is In many things a bit of a brute will
ease his horse when going up hill by
removing the reins which keep It's
head up but whoever saw the same
kindness extended to a horse drawing
a brougham? The same slavish fol-
lowing of fashion marks the attention
to tin horse's tall. The thoroughbred
has his three-quarter length bush so
have the matched pair for the brough-
am but what man would drive a
cob which had a tail bigger than a
half expanded fan? St. James' Ga-

n-Knt for which we stand and which
are of sp.saal interest to the cam-
paign. Local Isauea
We believe we stiouia nave the right
of local self-government immediately
without denial delay or evasion.
We belive the people of Oklahoma
should and will condemn at the polls
the efforts of those who are trying
to defeat statehood for our people.
We submit to the people of Okla
homa the best state constitution that
has ever been written and in asking
the suffrage of the patriotic citizen-
ship of this state we firmly stand
upon this constitution in its entirety
as our platform.
In this splendid organic law we have'
carried out in perfect good faith every
pledge made by us to the people of
the state. We have made a constitu
tion that takes the most advanced
ground of any organic law in exis-
tence;which not only protects the right
td life liberty and the pursuit of hap-
piness of the citizens but a constitu
tion for the protection of the property
it the people against the stealthy
hand of ingenious modern monopoly.
School Lands
Wo believe that as soon as possible
and-practicable the lands held by the
state for educational purposes should
be sold upon terms that shall be ab-
solutely fair to the people of this state
preserving the preference right to the
lessees guaranteed by the enabling act
and to the end that such lands should
become taxable and made more
valuable and productive by the actual
owner thereof.
We bel ieve that the funds derived
from the sale of such land should be
fully preserved and invested as pro-
vided in the constitution .
We believe that the present state
schools should be maintained and that
other necessary state schools and in-
stitutions should be established equit-
ably throughout the state.
Coal and Asphalt Lands
We favor the purchase of the se-
gregated coal and asphalt lands at a
a fair price to be agreed upon by the
state authorities and the Choctaw and
Chickasaw governments subject to the
approval by a vote of the people of
this state before the contract of pur
chase shall become effective.
We favor the flllloct itovolnrimnnt nt
such lands in the interest of the ;
schools and charitable institutions and
the product of cheap fuel for the peo-
ple of the state.
Wre favor the immediate sale of the 'able and proper control of transpor-
surfaco of such segregated coal and jtation and transmission companies and
asphalt lands in small tracts to actual 'the supervision and control of all en-
settlers.
We strongly oppose the passing of
the timber land and other natural re-
sources of this state into the hands of
the great monopolies.
Removal of Restrictions
We believe the people of this sover-
eign state should have the full meas-
ure of liberty enjoyed by the citizens
of other soverei(rn states.
We believe that the various federal
hureatis established in Jhi state! "eve that the machinery of the party
phould be immediately terminated an! has fallen under the inil''vi inHv
that the basis of this bureau govern- fence of the- great plutocratic power

the immediate settlement of all tribal
affairs and the immediate distribution

We believe that the estates of those l0ir members in our national congress
mentally incompetent of whatsoever t use their best efforts to require the
race should be protected by our state ekimation service to use the money be-
probate courts. We will take care of j longing to Oklahoma in- Oklahoma

Invested Capital a remedy for national conditions un-
Wre believe that it Is of the greatest dor which the people suffer is impos-
importance to the development of our
new state to give perfect safety and
assurance to invested capital and that
where complete security is afforded
capital will pladly seek investment at
the lowest rates of interest.
We draw a broad line of distinction
between capita! invested in honest en
terprises and predatory capital engag-
er in tcon?"pircy against the procals
of labor of the American people. We
oppose the crafty corporations which
artfully contrive to destroy compe-
tition and thus fix arbitray prices on
the necessities of life and cn those
things which are produced by our own
people. We do not intend to encour-
age predatory capital in this state. We
do intend to protect our people in the
proceeds of their honest labor. We
favor especial care of the protection
in the rights and interests of the la-
boring people fsijch as the tradesmen
and women and children of this state.
Natural Resources
.We favor the steady development of
all our natural resources and espec-
ially of our oil and gas regions.

We pledge the passage of a roaJ
I law that will enable the people in
each county to provide themselves a
good system of roads.
Schools
We recommend the education of the
people as absolutely essential to the
development of this state and to the
continuance of supremacy of the dem-
ocratic party. We pledge the party
to vigorously promote in every rea-
sonable way our publi j school system
so that this state shall stand in the
front ran kin the educational column.
Economy
We pledge the people of this state
an economical and faithful adminis-
tration of its affairs and that the
state taxes shall be as low as pos-
sible for the conduct of a state gov
ernment properly administered.
Separate Coaches
We approve the resolution of the
constitutional convention of March 1
1907 pledging the enactment of a law
at the earliest possible date during
the first session of the first legisla-
ture providing for separate coaches
Lor accomodations and waiting rooms
for the negro race.
Prohibition
The question of prohibition has
been removed from partisan politics
and has been left to a vote of the peo-
ple in accordance with the principle
of the referendum.-
Fulfillment of Pledges
In the constitution which we sub-
mit we call attention to the improtant
fact that we have faithfully carried
out every pledge made the people in
the last campaign. We unreservedly
endorse the action of the democratic
majority in its faithful compliance in
drawing the constittuion in accord
ance with our pledges to the people
and we pledge that the democratic par-
ty if now entrusted with power in the
administration of the state govern-
ment will faithfully enforce execute
and carry into effect every principle of
sai dconstitution as adopted by the
people and a strict enforcement of ev-
ery law enacted by the legislature of
this state.
National Issues
We hereby express our allegiance
to the great principles of government
advocated by the national democratic
party upon which we believe the fu
ture welfare of this republic must
depend.
We reaffirm our allegiance to that
greatest living exponent of democratic
principles William Jennings Bryan
and endorse him for our presidential
nominee in 1908.
Wre emphatically demand the rea.son-
terprises engaged in inter-state com-
merce. We favor the improvement of the
waterways of the Missouri valley and
the establishment ow water transpor-
tation wherever practical throughout
the Union.
We believe that the patriotic ele-
ments of the republican party are no
longer able to control or inf!'tnc?
that great political ornnirm. We be-
can party

stble through that party.
Wre appeal therefore to every good i
city who places patriotism above I
commercialism happiness and the wel-i
fare of the great body of our produc-j
ing class above the enrichment of the!
few; and who believe in local self-gov-j
ernment to join us in a holy crusade i
for the restoration of the people to)
the.r rights.
We enjoin upon the advocates of
democracy that they treat with sep-
eial respect those of our fellow citi-
zens who by environment affiliation
or by other reasons have heretofore
affiliated with other parties and we
urge them to use only sound argument
in appealing to their reason and to
use the force of courtesy and kind-
ness in persuading them to join U3 in
the great task of restoring to the Am-
erican people their rights to the pur-
suits of happiness.
