One of the first nnd host provisions
looking to tho success of tho author-
ities in n united effort to exterminate
tho fevor from tho Crescent City is
that "local politics" I not to bo per-
mitted to cut any flguro In It. This
rule Is certainly necessary. "I-ocal
politics" of the sort they have In New
nriminii would t roraote a fever
scourgo In ordor to do buslnoss.

"lf newspaper editors know how

Tho citizen was mistaken. The news'

Hwlndlcr hypocrite every harping
critic nnd lover of notoriety who is
Ignored and In fact by nil persons
who do not agree with him In all pub

The doctrine that money Is worth

WILL NOT BE INCONSISENT.
A gentleman who has wi'hln a
month been over a large part of the
Indian Territory to the outh and ast
of here says he found no one who was
taking any Interest In the Muskogee
separate statehood convention. At all
points the people asked seemed sur-
prised to learn that any one supposed
that the people of their section might
endorse such a move.
The people everywhere pointed to
the fact that they had sent 500 dele-
gates to the single statehood conven-
tion and had sent more than a thous-
and boomers along with the delegates
as evidence of the kind of statehood
the Indian Territory desires. This
should be sufficient. It Is charging the
people of all that section with fickle-
ness to say thoy will now turn around
and as enthusiastically endorse a
move tho very opposite of the ono
provlously launched with absolute
unanimity.
The Muskogee convention cannot
represent the opinion of the majority
of the people of the Indian Territory.
This was done at the previous state-
hood convention. The gTeat mass ot
the people of both territories earnest-
ly desire statehood and both know
that there Is but one form of state-
hood which can be secured at this
time nnd they aro not going to waste
time on tho Impossible
The time was when the people of
the two territories desired separate
statehood and believed this possible.
The people of the two territories were
not acquainted with each other and
naturally supposed there was some
good reason why they could not as-
slmllate. The people of Oklahoma a
dozen years ago saw that the Indian
Territory could not bo made a part
of n state until the expiration of cer
tain Indian treaties which takes place
March 4 1900.
The people of Oklahoma did not be
lieve It Just that thoy should be com
pelled to wait all those years for the
treaties to lape. and did not think
Congress would compel them to wait.
but Just the same tho peoplo are still
waiting and will wait until both come
in together. This long and fruitless
struggle of Oklahoma for admission
to tho union convinces all Intelligent
men that congress will not now that
the Indian Territory is ready for ad
mission make two states. It would
be absurd to suppose that congress
after refusing statehood to Oklahoma
for twelve years after she was In ov
ery way qualified (.Imply because the
Indian Territory wns not ready would
then admit the two territories as sop
arato states. The long wait was for
the express purposo of uniting the
two territories Into one state nnd con
dltloim have not changed. The same
reusons which Induced congress to
compel Oklahoma to wait through
twelve long years still hold.
This tho people of Oklahoma an
the Indian Territory know. Those who
want statehood will work for the only
form possible while thone who do not
want statehood of nny kind will work
for separate statehood because they
know It can not be secured
Those who attend the Muskogee
separato statehood convention know
tho passage of such a bill as they will
recommend will never m?ot with fa
vor in congress and this Is why they
will push it. Tho leaders do not want
a chnngo. Times-Journal

Tho following extract from a letter
written by Acting Secretary of tho In

Indian Affairs points anew one or tho
reasons why tho peoplo of this Terr!
tory are calling for statehood:

of congress was Invitee" to tho iicr.s

New YorK Cotton Letter.

lowing is Now York cotton lot
tr by Mclntyro:
Thu market weakened .still
further today under the pros
sure of rather general re-selling
ii nd scattered liquidation togeth
er with a withdrawal of the bull
suppon which hrd been so prom
inent a feature in sustaining the
market the past few days. This
movement was due to the an
pea ranee of rains in Atlantic and
Gulf states wtih some scattered
showers in Miss valley and
Texas.
It is quite plain that the mar
kot is now being inlluenced by
weather conditions and will con
tinuo so the rest of this month
Jt must bo remembered that
this is the most important month
of tho crop and that perfect
weather will be necof-sary to im
prove the situation. The wil
liiignes.s of southern planters to
hold on to the balance of the
old crop and market the new
may also have some weight.
