chance to do particularly true of
Oklahoma. The community is sit-
uated in the locality which is get-
ting more of fortune’s favors these
days than is any other part of the
country- All the states and terri-
tories—Missouri, Arkansas, Texas,
Oklahoma and Indian territory-
are growing at a rate beyond any-
thing which they saw in the decade
ending with l'.lOQ. The pulling
of the population center three
miles to the south in the iustrde-
cade, when the movement was on
ly fourteen miles to the west,
showed the drift which was in
progress toward the southwest.
The census tf 1910 promises to
tell a still more fluttering tale of
this localitie’s expansion.
Globe Democrat:—Oklahoma is
in some danger of being spoiled by
the praise which s being heapeo
nil her from all sides and for many
tilings. Paul Cooper, her te'rritor
ini bank commissioner, has just
made a report which will call out
more eulogies. In the past twelve
months there has been an men ase
of $2,200,000 in the deposits of the
hanks of the territory and a gain
of $2,00,000 in their loans and dis-
counts. Twentv-one banks Jmve
been created in the territory in the
past, six months, with resources oi
$590,000 and there has been a total
increase in the resources of $735,
000.
But this is only for half of the
coming state of Oklahoma. I he
Indian territory is not included
in tlie figures here given. The
comptroller of the currency at
Washington says there are 251
national bank8 in operation in Ok-
lahoma and* Indian territory, tm
compared with 108. in Nebraska,
80 in Kansas and 32 in Arkansas.
The state of Oklahoma will start
out with more than double as

experience of all the communities
which have passed through the
It is of interest to note that the
first raising of the national ting
with a 46th star (anticipating the
regular course, which demands the
presidents proclamation) was
made by Indian students from In-
dian Territory and Oklahoma, at
Carlisle school in Pennsylvania,
where so many Indians have been
educated. This certainly indicates
the educated Indians welcome
the disappearance of their condi-
tion as dependants, and the emer-
gence as citizens. The placing of
Oklahoma among the stars of the
union makes the Indian an Amer-
ican. We are no longer to remem-
ber that he was an American nges
befo e all our kind. We have com-
pelled him to adopt us. We never
succeeded in adopting the Indian.
Constantly he fled from the white
man, constantly he fought his ad-
vance; he got, full fruitage of war
and full recognition of equal mili-
tary importance in the nearly 300
years of border warfare. And what
has caused our triumph? The
gross mass of commercialism. In-
dians are still in our advance in a
consistent and powerful disregard
of commerce. They succumb be-
cause the end is here. But they
are not lesser—they are only dif-
ferent. And wo have the last word.
