The Splro Times states that there
Ib a hotel keeper In Muskogee who Is
jo Htlnay that when a baby Is born
In ono of his rooms he Immediately
wrote Us name on the register and
began charging it for room and board.
Ho was in no more of a hurry than
nomo of those who filed their babies
for land allotments.
Notwithstanding ho had been not!
lied by tho consignee's wife not to do
no. nu express agent at llllleboro. ad-
vised by his attorney delivered a

In speaking of the recent lynching!)

New Orlenus Is handling the fever
with a degree of uccess that Indl-
Mites an early decrense In the number

not uiireHon.ible to expect the fevor
to subside much enr'ler than tho tlmo
Ilxed for the first frost. The war on
inosqultos has been relentless and tho
wxtormlnatUjii of the pest In many
legalities gives promise of batter- re-

When a newsuaner advocates tho
abolition of the puss system on tho

that ho knows the ins and outs of tho

it change would affect the newspapers
most of all. Not a bit of It. The news-
papers carry advertising to cover tho
transportation they uso and most of
them would bo glad to got on a cash
basis. It Is tho pus system as extend-
ed to public olllclalg that should bo
abolished nnd If It affects the news-
pajiers tho latter would be tho last
to complain. We aro sntlsfled that tho
railroads would be glad to see tho
change.

MERELY TO BLOCK PROGRESS.
Many of the sincere well-wishers of
Oklahoma and the Indian Territory
will view the present separate state-
hood convention at Muskogee as a
serious blow to the best Interests of
these territories. Whatever the mo-
tives of those behind tho present
movement. It Is safe to nMiiino that
they entertain no actual belief that
their activities will forward a move-
ment that Is none too hopeful r.t the
best. They hove managed through
clover manipulation to glvo a sem-
blance of spontaneity to tho conven-
tion but to thoso familiar with tho
situation tho leal object and purposes
of tho Muskogeo gathering are fu-
miliar. The light for statehood thai has
beon a splendidly waged In the Inter-
ests of both territories has attracted
tho admiration of the entire country
and today a sentiment exists In and
out of cotifc-reaa that ht coveted blea-
ring ennnot be much longer withheld.
Tho recent single statehood conven-
tion was participated In by members
of all political portle and represented
nearly every Interest of both Oklaho-
ma and Indian Territory nnd the re-
sult of Its work was the crystalllsn-
Hon of nn almost universal sentiment
for single statehood. The effect of this
convention was to remove for tho
tlmo at least the excuse of opposing
congressmen that politics -.nhd jeal-
ousies had ontored Into tho proposi-
tion. Single statehood was and Is tho
ndoptpd policy of a majority of tho
citizens of both territories.
The present convention at Musko-
geo can have but one result. While
not advancing the Interests of state-
hood for Indian Territory It may asrve
to complicate things and block the
hoped-for legislation at the next term
Of congress It n oeiieveu vy mmij wt
this is the very object of the gather-
ing and this idea Is fostered by fho
fact that apparently it Is the purpose
of the promoters to continue the de-
liberations nntU cong-vws ineeta. While
a majority of the people of boUi terri-
tories are unquestionably In favor of
single statehood and this form of en-
try into the sisterhood of states has
merit rer-aon and logic in iv favor
certain unfriendly member of con-
gress will seize eagerly tho excuse
offered by the Muskogeo meeting to
further d-.lay favorable action. The
practical way to combat this ho.-ttto
activity on the part of the Indlnn Ter-
ritory double statehood lenders is for
Oklahoma to renew vigorously its
tight for single statehood in which It
will be backed by the unselfishly pro-
gressive peoplo of the Indian Terri
tory. Kansns City Journal.

BRILLIANT CONCLUSION
THE SMOOTHEST GRAFT MADE BY
SEPARATE STATE HOODERS.
A Plan That Will Attract Interest and
Bear Watchln? Elect Delegates

Repubs When Voting.
Miisknir30. I. T.. Auir. 24. tSnecIal.l

ties ns an egg shell la full of meat
It Is to select four delecates. two denv
ocrats and two republicans who shall
ho elected nt tho snmo time the peo
ple voto on the constitution theso four
delegates to become members of con-
gress. Immediately upon tho passage of
an enabling act admitting the new
state and to hold olllce until tho follow
Ing election. Theso delegates would
nroKont. the constitution to congress
nnd ask an enabling net. making It
effective. This plan would can for a
territorial convention of both parties?
nnd nomination by eacii or two uei-
ntrntM nt lnreo to concross. Such coil1
vmitlnn wnnlil nnt nnlv lift nf Intense
Interest but commit all members of

nrato statehood nnd most of them rath
er than be left out would participate
Tills delegate congress plan is or mo.-ii

by several Dominion newspapers
thieatenu to preclpltato an liUcna-
tlonal controversy over tho proposed
raising mil removal to Detroit of three
HrltiBh wnr vessels which were sunk
in the river Thames ill the famous
laud nnd naval battle of October G
1S13.
The remains of theso onco staunch
wnr vessels wore a part of the British
fleet that attempted to resist Com-
modoro Perry at Put-ln-Uny. At that
time tho whole northwestern country
which through the surrender of De-
troit by Hull had fallen Into Ilrltlsh
hands. After the crushing defeat ad-
ministered by Perry the chattered
remncnt of tho Ilritlah fleet slipped
to Detroit nnd was hastily pressed In-
to servPe by General Proctor who re-
alised that sufety lay only In flight.
Pour vessels wero hastily loaded with
arms ammunition stores government
pnpers and othor plunder from De-
troit and nil speed made to Lnko St
Clair. The llttlo fleet took refuge In
the Thnnio nnd in the battlo which
followed the shin wore sunk. Tecum-
sell the creat Indian thief who assist-
ed the Ilrltlsh. lost lite lire and Proc-
tor escaping. Inter committed suicide.
The vessels were forgotten until sev-
eral yonrs ago when unusually low
water in the Thames rove&led one of
thorn.
Mr. C. M. Burton one of Uie explo-
ration party In -speaking of the nf-
falr said that ho expected no serious
dlfflculty ns n result of Interference
by the Dominion government. H de
clared the vesoels wero now private
property and that ho would bo able
to effect a bargain whereby he could
take them over. If the plans nre car
ried out tho vessels will bo presented
to thu city of Detroit and bo placed in
a specially constructed museum on
