Ignating to certain tribes of Indians
the occupation of the aror Known a
the Indian Territory and called it
the Indian Country. In the year 1S30.
The fire had not entirely left the
veins of the American Indian. Ttipy
had watched the civilization of tne
white men. They had occupied varl
mis relations to it up to that time
They wanted to get away from it and
re-establish an Indian civilization and
manage it in Imitation of the white
man's government. It then seemed de.
slrable that the Indians should be se
questered somewhere became they
i were in the way of the white men
scattered around in various parts of
the country and In the way of Uu
business of the white man.
So to accommodate the ambition of
the lndtans and the convenience of
the white men. the national govern-
ment established the Indlin iu th.)
Indian country. For more than half
century the Indian played nation.
The national government loaned the
Indians oereignty. land money en.
couragemenL sympathy and protec
tion against everything except them
selves. That was the weak spot

ne conclusion of the government
was brought nbout by these events.
Several Important tilings remain to
be done. The restrictions of the govern
ment have not been removed. Tho
government ha not )et wltlidrnwn Its
powerful hand from the Indian land.
It Is almoKt reaiLv to push Ita ward
out Into the deep water and say to
him "Sink or swim." Tho land by feo
simple title Is the life preserver. Cit-
izenship in the United State is the
life line. It seems the time lias ar-
rived when it Is necenry to make a
wholesale removal of restriction to
get a natural sequence to experiment
and events. The Indian situation 1
prepared for colonisation. The Indian
ha been assembled from hi hiding
nlaces and distributed over the In
dian country. Now- let colonization do
Its work. Let tho white men como
ln large number and fettle u.pon the
lands near the Indians. Let tho In.
llan be bred bark Into the civiliza
tion and Ideals of the white man. The
Indian has land to sell and to spare.
i-et tne iiputt come in a large way.
It I the final stroke of the govern-
ment In behalf of it ward. Tho gov-
ernment will not withdraw necessary
conservatorship. It will remove the
Clout! on Indian title to such an ex
tent a to open un tne channel for
coionlntion. It will take down overv
Darner it win take down the Chinese
Event will d the rest for tho
Indian and the government. This
seem to be the decree of the Amer-
ican civilization. A I have said the
decree of the Amer'ran civilization is

of hi candidacy full of love to all
and malice toward none.
In referring to the slnnderou state
ment aimed at lilm by duo of his
opiionents ho did so In a spirit i f
charity. The speaker was too over-
come by the rc-cptlon and for a ft w
seconds It looked a if no woul i
break down from feeling.
Notwithstanding that lie has Jiim
completed a camimlgn of six week-
In arduou work all over the stuu.
M. Cruce looked to be alino-t as fro.i
a the day be started.
Mr. Cruce apoke of the good erT-t
that the loyalty of hi fellow eltlr.ui-.
had all over the state. tVhile I don t
know the result. I am satisfied tli.it
I have won a victory over C. N. Has-
kell. Notwithstanding the fart thai I
have been the object of the shaf's of
slander and abuse. I would not re
flect nor would I iiermit any of the
speaker to Inject any personam y in
the campaign.
The Democracy of Oklahoma U
too bltr and too broad to ruin the
chance of the party by attacking au
member of the  party. The Demo-
crat are to be congratulated on the
clean campaign run In all of the rac.
except that of governor and he It to
the everlasting disgrace of the part
that one who was in the race saw- tit
to attack even the privacy of a man
home. Remember eery eye I turn-
ed toward Ardmore and Ardmore is
expected to do It dill; If I am
elected I will make a tu partisan
governor and kive the people the
best administration possible."
Charles I). Carter also a fellow
townsman and candidate fur Congress
made hi closing speech which like
Mr. Cruceg I'peech. wa a clear defini-
tion of hi platform and he also :
fused to bring charge against hi
opponent although he was requested
to do so. He replied to the charge
brought against him by l.lnebjiuh .it
the eleventh hour and defended them.
He stated that I.lnebaugh ha I not
quoted him correctly ln hi sta'em-ut
before the senatorial committee. In-
asmuch a he had nu quoted him
in full and only parts of the sentence
which be used.
He spoke of Introducing the bill In
the Chickasaw legislature that half
of the privilege tax that was paid t
the white people should go to th.-
upport of the white school in th.s
tectton. He told of the result of tr.e
Dawes commlion and since th-
tablUhinent of that commiss or. 'h-
country was going down Instead i
golug up. Tho speaker paid a g: a
ing tribute to the womanhood of th "
country.
