THE RKlThLtCAN IKXTUISE.
An effort U U'liiir made by Democratic orator- and
newspapers to maVe It appear trial the UepubUcart parly
faors tnltvd school tot ail races and .elI Intercourse
between the whites and negroes. This of course Is a.-
siluttly fa Ue.
The Republican party established separate schools in
Oklahoma and both white and negroes are In favor of
continuing the policy thus luautfurateti a it la been
found much the best far both rare. The republican
party reci'Hiil.e and would observe the social dilTerence
litwem the two raws.
The Republican party doe however. Insist most
emphatically that ther be no distinction between the
races In thi-ir civil and political rights. The honest ne-
gro has just the me ruht to cast an horust ballot a
hi the honest white man or the honest. Indian and the
Republican party a Ion a- it is In power will protect
him In that n;ht. There will te no ttrandfatherV
CtauMt in Repiiblic.n tKiahoma.
No nettro who W morally uuU ahouid Iw allowed. the
use of the ballot; neither should any white man or In-
dian. All should tm on an j ual ;t y before the law This
H the Republican doctrine In Ok !aho:i. m The Chief-
ta n understand it
Til V. WAY T Im IT-
Three years aw the Emporia Kan. Ua.-ette Whliaai
Allen White' paper Ix-jn gniim the eiti.eiis of Ktu po-
rt I the Assoc.atrd 1'ress service. In 1 1. three fear that
hue elaiscd the circulation id the Gatette luu more
than doubled while the circulation of the Kansas City
papers in Km porta la actually a thousand less than It was
three years aga. And a a consequence the trade of
Emporia merchant ha Increased greatly. There are
lev Kansas "ity advertisements read In Fmpona than
three yearn uo hence there are W mail orders -nt to
Kansas City merchant. There ace more F.mprta a I
erti ment read than ever before htr-e Emporla'mer
chants reap the bene tit of Kansas City' loss.
Thi sl ows the value of a jpiod local paper. Tl
Chieftain hn;tes some day to become to Viuita what the
(aitte Is to hmpona. Inita I now the smallest city
in the I'ti t I Stat receiving the Associated rns d.v
patci.e and with the arrival of the linotype recently
oriltoed Tic Chieftain white really Improved In e
ery way. Yet there are actually some Vinita merchant
so short -sighted to their best Interests a to refuse to
advertise with The Chieftain. The merchants of I'.m
porla could tell them that the way to build up their bus
iness I to build up a tr. iu' paper that will be able to
meet cUy eompetion a the iiaette meet It In E.-npo-

A MARTYR TO 1'REEIh )M.
Fifty year aia John Hrown m d. spue I outcast
dytiitf on a scaSotd. Toiiy he I a natx-na! hera grow-
In bigger and bl'-er a the year re-' i and we -'"ore a
j -j.ster view of the n.en cf the past. A final ic he w
mavl: a disturlr of Itm peace: but In spite cf all he
was one of our ureatest men.
With liis clear and fear.es i!on he &a the im (-...tj
of human slavery; J tat a clearly and a fearless'y he ui
that hi fellow countrymen could tit I fully aroused to
the sin they were harboring witi.out the ;ni'i; of
Ujlood. Hi courage wassplendMly e-iuai to the clearness
of his vision and r!.ee. and without repining lie
went to h! death the Virlnia -affc!d luted and
despised ef Mi fellow but heroically Pvnfldent tht
through til d.-ath triHlioiisut black n.en would be free.
He yate hhr.self a tnartyr to Iiuxan litjeity and hi
aacrllce a not in vain lie died but his soul stiil goes
marching on.
WHICH Jm Y1" CJloOSK'
Here I the Ieiuocratlc .slogan; "The Indian and
the white man against the niser and Republican." And
here I the Republican slogan: "The elwtion of official
who will make Oklahoma the n.ost pn-!nwlve and the
best governed Mate In the union." Which appeal to
yen reader as heinjf the party to which lite business of
the new state should be entrusted'.'
tt It be thought that The Chieftain Is taking an
unfair advantage of the Iemocrats and putting Into
their mouths an absurd campaign cry that they would
disavow ere make the etplanatlon that the iMsmncratlc
elogan quoted a twee I a veriiatlm utterance from Chair-
aun Inmn of tlm Ieii'.ocratic campaign committee. It
accurately meiauree hi ability n I the ability Jof;t he
party that sastains him in such a campaign of race
prejudice.

"X LITTLE LEARNING. "
io iew of Use fact that the I.ea ter I still tr? ing to
mislead people a to the law id guardian The Chief-
tain recapitulate hen with the Arkansas statute t o
the subject.
Sect Ion 31'io of Mansfield s 1'igtst provide that the
father or if be I dead the mother of a child shall be
It natural guardian but that In all ease where the
estate I not derived from the per. in acting a guardian
such parent shall give H'urlt and account a other
guardian." give; the taw t mandatory.
Section 3" provides that whenever the court learns
that a child I as no guardian the court shall choose one.
Section INT provide that when the natural guardian
after complaint ha been ma le by any pvrson and an et-
amination ha ben had by the court U found to be in-
competent or I mismanaging or wasting Id child's
property the court shall appoint a curator oti er than
the natural guardian.
Section provides for annua! re rt by the court
from alt guardians or curators and specifically state
that guardians or curator negVting or refusing to
make such settlement and statements thai! he liable to
Im attached and Imprisoned.'
This would seem to Iwlperfet-tly lain to even the
most obtuse person yet Editor Atn.of tt.e leader l y
separating Section from it context and by failing
to notice that parent though natural guardian are re-
(Uired by Section 3b'j to give security and account as
other guardians bu.lds up a case of oppression against
Judge Hill and Parker whim he accuses of tyranny and
Injustice towards the parent of children wlwj own prop
erty In their own right. Not st it h this he evu
Insinuate that parent should t-anl together to resist
the law.
The editor of the Leader is a dangirous man tc go to
for advice. He has just suihrient knowledge to make
him think te know it ah. If parents before acting on
his suggestion lo defy the cvurt will but consult their
lawyer whether he be a Iemocral or a Republican It
matter not which they will learn that Ju.h'e tlill and
Judge Parker aie doing what they are re palrel by law to
do and that Alitor Amo construction cf the statute
I not yet ceirsidtred binding authority In Indian
Territory.
