Buy your Christmas present early and often.
The work of saving the country is well on the way.
Beform ! reform! is the cry, and in the radicalism of
the cry is the danger.
He who sets up a political idol, worships a doll
etuffed with sawdust.
The early shopper is the friend of the clerks, who
liave to work hard enough at best.
Senator Graham's "Jim Crow" bill was th? first one
presented, and was evidently timed by its friends as
the initiative bill.
There ought not to be nearly as many New Year res-
olutions smashed as usual this winter, since so much of
the country has gone "dry."
) Every legislative coattaill or hip pocket contains one
or more radical "reform" bill. The "reform" cry must
be beetled if nothing more is done.
Oklahoma has not yet lout all interest in the dis-
patches from Washington. There is much yet for the
national congress to do in way of aid to statehood
growth.
We presume, now that a bill has been introduced in
the legislature by a tool of one who would make as
much trouble for Guthrie as possible, looking to the
removal of tte capital, the Oklahoman, the blubbering
bully, would advise Guthrie to lay iow.
"The Indian Territory side of Oklahoma is i swarm-
ing. seething hive of place hunters," eavs a prominent
Oklahoma democrat who is next to the powers that be.
lie says that portion of the s+nte has ten pie counter
candidates to one on the Oklahoma side.
There are many reasons why you should do your
Christmas shopping at once, the best one of which Is
that you can now get what you want, and bv get-
ting in before the rush you can be much better
Buited than to wait until the last week.
THE HONEST DOLLAR AXD
THE DISHONEST DOLTAU
What the public needs to do is to get acquainted
with the honest dollar.
Because a dollar lands in the pocket of a man of
wealth it does not necessarily become a dishonest dollar.
The dishonest dollar may be found in the pocket of
the man of very ordinary mean:
In fact, it ntay be found in the pocket of the man
who frequently finds himself dead broke.
Because a man, or a company, or a combination ap-
pears to prosper to a remarkable degree, it does not fol-
low that or they are handling dishonest dollars.
In fact, as a rule, their dollars are made through just
as legitimate and honest channels as is that of the man
who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow.
In the organization of capital into companies and
combines much depends for the livelihood of millians
of our best citizens.
And right here is where the laboring man, the mid ■
die man and the capitalist should meet upon ti basis
of fairness.
In the past the people have been too eager to jump
at the mere suggestion of unfairness or robbery where
there were in reality no good grounds for such thought.
WitJiin the past year too much of this dangerous
work — the blind leading the blind —has been in-
dulged in.
With President Roosevelt's determined effort to bring
to punishment the combines who were possessed of the
dishonest dollar—
Many took up the idea of a general warfare against
capital.
All who did this eitlier misunderstood President
Roosevelt or flhey tin their demagogfie, evil inclined
minds thought to advance their own selfish endds
through the exuse offered in the prosecution of wrong
doers through orders from the head of the nation.
Much reform and good was brought about through
the policy mapped out by the president.
But on the other hand, much harm was done by
pretenders,—by demagogues.
The honest and dishonest dollar were last sight of
in the warfare that was made and in the sentiment that
prevailed.
The good, where it appeared to the public as a prop-
osition paying large dividends, was condemned with
the bad.
The people were in a condition to bolievc that almost
everything that was being undertaken or carried on
bv capital was in some way in conflict with the law.
The politicians, and especially the demagogues among
them, have worked their games to the limit.
And their work, not the policy of President Roosevelt,
added very much to tihe conditions that brought on the
financial flurry.
President Roosevelt was no more to blame for the
condition in Wall street than was the teacher who by the
punishment of scholars for vicious acts, brought about
a walk-out. of the students.
"The law must and shall be preserved," and to the
end that the law might be preserved, and law breakers
punished, President Roosevelt proceeded, and no far-
ther.
The fact is, the people are too easily led by designing
politicians and knockers on everything that refuses to
let them have a part in.
Being thus easily influenced they lose sight of the
THE WHITE MAN IS DISFRANCHISED
IX ALABAMA BV AN UNJUST LAW.
The Southern American is a newspaper published
at Alexander City, Alabama.
It carries at the head of its editorial page this bit
of information:
"This paper is printed in its entirety by the Southern
American, equipment in Alexander City, and is issued
from a plant inferior to none."
On the first page of the issue before us is the follow-
ing, which will give our readers something of an idea
of what we may expect in Oklahoma provided tiie Tay-
lor-Roddie law is placed on our statutes:
"There are, according to the statistics of the last
census, 1,203 whiles and 2,056 blacks of voting age
in this county of Tallapoosa. The total number of
males of voting nge, therefore, is 6,259.
The actual number of persons announced as hav-
ing registered in 1901, after the adoption of the
present state constitution, was 4,008. Inasmuch
as there were 4,203 whites of voting age, and an
original registration of 4,008, it is most interesting
to contemplate the recent revelations or disclosures
from the goingovor and shifting the list of duly
qualified voters done at the county court house
prior to the ordering of the election jnst held in
this county on the whiskey question.
It was determined upon this recent investiga-
tion of tJio records, that tiliere are only about 1,700
qualified voters, in all, in Tallapoosa county. In
fact, the total number of persons who are capable
voters is even less than the aggregate number of
blacks of voting nge.
The white voters availed themselves of the oppor-
tunity to get their names on the list of registered
voters, but they have failed, in large numbers, to
meet the poll tax payment requirement, which is
absolutely essential to getting one's name on the
list of actually qualified voters. If others than
the negro, if other men than the blacks, have not
become disfranchised in Tallapoosa county, there is
something that has hanpened fliat has this appear-
ance on the face ot' the facts that present them-
selves.
Tt is ocrtainlv to be hoped for that this great
mass of white people, who have awakened to find
themselves cut out of the voting in the meantime
of tlie appeals to them to "get rid of the negro,"
will strive to regain their lost citizenship and be
more careful hereafter not to be led off into an
alleged chase after the negro, which, as results
show, caused the rights of a vnst number of whites
to be lost in the chase.
If it has not yet occurred to the plain people in
the hill counties that this new state constitution
was so framed as to entrap the rural whits man
and to ensnare him to getting himself out of the
voting, if the real truth of the matter has not now
dawned upon him, it never will.
' St. Louis was treated the other day to a half mile of real difference between tihe honest dollar and dishonest
dissatisfied women. It was a regular divorce day, and
it looked as if all of St. Louis was flocking to the courts
for relief. In all there were 230 applicants for free-
dom, and they attracted more attention even than an
ordinary Uncle Tom's Cabin parade.
Some of the democrats still insist that Bryan should
consent to step aside and give som% ftther man a
chance. But as Bryan seeins to hold the whip hand,
and is also apparently determined to keep his place on
the driver's seat, all the dissenters can do is to grumble
and hope that something will happen to change the
aspect of the situation.
Some weeks ago Hon. Emory E. Brownie*-, in an in-
terview by a State Capital reporter, outlined the pro-
visions of a bill that he intended introducing in the
senate on revenue and taxation, which is set forth in
that portion of Governor Haskell's message covering the
proposition to equalize taxation, and it does begin to
look as though ideas for general good along other than
prejudiced and political lines werj going to aniaiga-
mate and result in many good laws. Sol ah!
T It is enough to make a smile plav on the face of a
smoothing iron to listen to some "statesmen" just let
loose, tearing their goozlos out by the roots talking
about "Jeffersonian principles." We are Milling to bet
a nine-dollar bill against as many doughnuts that nine-
tenths of the self-dubbed "Jeffersonian democrats," if
thev were to meet somp '\Tpff°rsonian principles com-
ing up street they wouldn't know tthern from a joke in
lest year's almanac.
The recent capture and confiscation of 3,000 quails
Newton, Kansas, which were shipped from Curtis,
Oklahoma, is worthy of note along the line of com-
mendation for watchfulness on the part of game war-
dens. The shipment was consigned to a Chicago house,
and, had it succeeded in reaching its destination, would
have been a profitable deal for the shipper. As it turned
out, however, it is a greot loss to him. Tims it is and
should be. The transgressor sooner or later runs amuck
of the law, and then there is grief galore.
According to the report of the United States geologi-
cal survey there is an extensive deposit of a peculiar
black granitelike rock, known as gabbro in the Wichita
mountains. Those who have examined the rock say
that it is destined to become noted as the finest orna-
mental stone in the west. It is said to be superior to the
best of the New England or Scotch black granite now
on the market. The deposits in the Widhitas cover a
number of square miles and are accessible to transpor-
tation. Within a short time this stone will be on the
market and another industry added to Oklahoma's re-
■curccft
dollar;—
They are too quick to class tfce men or combinations
which handle great enterprises with those through
whose coffers flow ill-gotten, dishonest dollars.
They fail to distinguish between the honest dollar
and the dishonest dollar.
But, thank God, tihe people are studying the polit-
ical questions of the day for themselves more than ever
before.
The demagogues may "fool some of the people part
of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but
they can't fool all the people all the time."
The leading question now is, "how much is Okla-
homa City putting up to Enid to have the -tate capital
fight started. Everybody knows that Enid would last
no longer in a contest at the ballot box for the capital,
than would a snowball in Hades. Enid is the cat s paw
in the plot, and we will be a little surprised if her
citizens do not repudiate the whole proposition. Th •
citizens of Enid are lovers of the square deal, ar.d they
know that there can be no legal meetings of the legis-
lature elsewhere, or removal of the state capital, until
after 1913, hence they can not be in sympathy wifin
the attempted grafter hold-up.
Cannon and Hughes would be a strong ticket to
place before the nation. In the milling that is now
on it may oome to that. The proclamation issued by
Gompers to the unions in the I nited States will not
cut any ice. Joe Cannon has ever been the friend of
labor and his record is too clean along that 1 ne for
even the great labor leader to embarrass him, simply
because of receiving a grubbing at the hands of "the
old war horse" in the Indiana campaign, when he went
in to paw up the earth about Senator Reveridge. Tihe
fact i-. in his trial of conclusions with Cannon, Mr.
GomperB lost out so heavily that we should hardlv
think he would care to endanger being put through
another such punishment.
Friday's action by the mayors of cities of the first-
class in recommending a rpisc in city tax levies from
10 to 30 mills will give our readers something of an
idea of the difference between what the con.-con. and
its friends told the citizens their taxes would be, and
what they really will he. Was the increased taxation
made proportionate to that asked by the cities of first-
class and the taxation made on full valuation many
taxpayers won Id soon he bankrupted. However, this
especial raise is based npon the loss of revenue in cities
through the cutting out of saloon licenses, hence it is
not nrobable thai anything n^ar a proportionate raise
in levies will have to lie made in other funds, but rest
assured, dear reader, it will be enough to make yon who
have property think of what was told you "befoh the
cyclone struck."
VENTING SPLEEN AND VENOM WTTERE
THEY SHOULD BE ENACTING MEASURES.
"Emergency nets" which spread a flaunting lie over
the nation are certainly in bad taste, and our legisla-
ture is throwing a blight over the growth and thrift
of the new state by in its acts sending forth such false
impressions. ,
One would think, to draw inference from the emerg-
ency proposition in the "Jim Crow" act, it being made
the first thing of importance in the mill, that Okla-
homa was over run by negroes, when the fact is that
but 22 1-2 per cent of the population are negroes.
The State Capital only criticises the proposition
from the- standpoint of the legislature making the "Jim
Crow" law the most important law to be enacted,—
In allowing such laws to take the precedence of court
THE MEXICAN FINANCIAL PLAN
WOULD NOT BE VERY LONG LIVED
The recommendation of Governor Haskell, in his
message, that a reserve fund be established to guarantee
safety of deposits in banks, is along the line of the
Mexican provision.
President Diaz long ago saw danger in the old bank
ing methods and he provided for a tax on deposits and
a small tax on bank checks.
This money goes into a fund to guarantee the de-
positors.
Then a government officer is put into cach bank to
see that the hanking laws are not violated.
There is no scandal in Mexico with "memorandum
notes" tuch as John R. Walsh used in his Chicago
banks.
No national bank in Mexico has failed for thirty
years.
The plan might appear, upon its face, to be a good
one for Oklahoma, but is it?
Because Mexico as a country has been successful is
no good reason for supposing that Oklahoma, as a
state, will be.
The probability is that such national currency laws
will be established by the present congress as will knock
the proposed plan higher than fiilderoy's kite.
Mr. Bryan's plan of giving the general government
supervisor over the banks and that the government
make good nil losses to depositors is a far better propo
sition thin that proposed by Governor Haskell, in that
it would let the whole country make good the losses.
Tf congress should pass n law guaranteeing depos-
itors in national banks, which it most likely will, it
"would be very hard sleighing" for the state banks
and Governor Haskell's plan could not save them.
All the strong state hanks in Oklahoma would get
into the national hank Tanks in haste—to evade the
responsibility of carrying the wildcat propositions that
would be bolstered up by the proposed plan.
Justice Brewer is a member of the supreme court of
the United States.
A few 3'ears ago he attended a reception at the White
ihouse, and thereupon he entered his protest against be-
ing placed in line after the diplomatic corps.
He had been long upon the bench and has evidently
an exaggerated idea of his importance.
He was in New York City the other day and made
a speech in which he scored President Roosevelt be-
cause the latter had taken a position hostile to the stock
gamblers.
Little, however, will Roosevelt care for this.
He has long ?:nco learned-that justices of the supreme
court are not infallible and when a learned and legal
head attempts to dabble in politics he generally man-
ages to make an ass of himself.
This is not the first time when the dictum of a
judge of (he supreme court has been overruled by the
verdict of the public, and it will probably not be the
last.
Article XXIII, Section 11 of the constitution, set-
ting forth a definition of the races reads as follows:
Wherever, in this constitution and laws of
this state, the word or words, "colored " or
"colored race," "negro," "or "negro race," are
■lsed, the same shall be construed to mean or
apply to all persons of African descent. The
term "white race" shall include all other per-
sons.
And the term "white race shall include all other
persons," places the Indian in a very embarrassin!
position. By this the constitution at one fell swoop
makes the Indian a white man. and by so doing, if
indeed it can do so, the Indian loses all rights to the
and county matters, which are in distressing con-j claim on government. This is a pretty liow-de-do.
dition, our lawmakers are placed in the attitude of
venting prejudice through law enactment rather than
enacting needful laws of the moment.
The "Jim Crow" law should have taken its turn in
importance, not in thought to merely gratify a preju-
diced whim.
Senator Emory Brownlee covered the ground pre,.'
thoroughly when he, in a short talk on the question,
said in part:
"You are advertising to the world that the con-
ditions which exist8 in the extreme southern states
exist also in Oklahoma. Those conditions do not
exist here. There is no emergency, to call for tihe
reckless passage of this measure. I cannot state
that I am utterly opposed to the law, or one of this
character, but there are many other matters of
greater moment. The courts of the state are idle
owing to the necessity for legislation. County of-
ficers in that portion of the new state formerly
known as Oklahoma Territory, where new counties
were hewn from the old ones, are idle. Why let
our race prejudice rule, and by delaying other
necessary legislation, proclaim to the world that
conditions here are such as are a menace to pub-
lic safetv."
If the constitution is strong enough to do what it
says in this section the Indian has been placed in n
condition to lose much of his rights as an Indian.
AVhat next?
Tt as a crime to circulate such stories as emanated
from the fact that the legislature made of the "Jim
Crow" an emergency net. A few more such dam-
jjhool moves should condemn the demagogues wh i
press them to future oblivion. The fact is everybody
expected them to enact a "Jim Crow" law, but no
sane, unprejudiced person expccted them to adver-
tise that it. was not only the most important law of
passage, but that it was likewise of such great
urgent necessity that it could not wait for any of
the measures of real momentary importance.
Foraker has sounded his war note. He is a candi-
date for the republican nomination for president him-
self. and he doesn't rare who knows it. This is sup-
posed to he a slap at Taft. At anv rate, it complicates
the Ohio situation and puts a quietus on the statement
that Foraker is to come out as the champion of Roose-
velt in the senate. There is evidently much fun ahead,
fpr the hoys will now begin to get busy. It is well to
remark, however, that Teddy is n pretty good politician
himself and if he enters Ohio in earnest, ho will cause
Mr. Foraker, eminent statesman ks he is, to sit up,
think hard and scratch his head with vigor.
J; the temperance cause after all these years of
pleading and struggle, making any progress? "Yes,"
says t'?e careful observer, "it is making much, it is
going forward furiously." Let's see: uur national
territory more than half free from the open saloon,
with 30,000,000 of our population under prohibition
law; large sections of Canada, England, Scotland,
Norway, Sweden and Austria free, with Finland for-
bidding both the manufacture and sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors from this forward. Georgia is to be
"state dry" after January 1, 1908, Oklahoma has
entered the union under the prohibition flags, while
Alabama is being stirred to iti depths, its principal
city, Birmingham, and Jefferson county, containing
the city, "dry," and Knoxville, Tenn., has banished
all its saloons. Tn the whole south out of 1,158 coun-
ties 883 are "dry," 275 "wet" and 98 mixed as to
license.
Revolving cycles of years bring back the old in new
guises. The cave-dweller and the man of the wattled
hut made their homes out of materials close at hand
by excavation and building; here we are, doing some-
thing very like them, when we take sand, gravel and
>vater from the soil, and, adding a modicum of cement,
raise our structures as we please. Earthquakes, light-
ning, fire and insect foes cannot mar or break the
new material. It has come to stay, nnd architects who
look askance ought rather to hail a medium which is
not only indestructible, but plastic; may be wrought
into structures that shall be not merely forever, but
things of beauty.
OPICS
the true modesty
of a chicago woman
A Chicago woman refused to be painted
as Madame Recamler.
It will be remembered that this famous
French beauty sent down her portrait to
posterity clad only in an attenuated gar-
ment.
It appeared, however, afterwards that
the Chicago lady objected to the pose, not
because of the scanty raiment, but be-
cause Madam Recamied In the original
was painted with bare feet.
The reason ,of course, was obvlou^ why
the Chicago woman objected to the pose.
financial trouble
yet centers in new york
The city bank of New York has bought
in the last thirty days commercial bills
to the amount of *87,000.000.
A large part of these bills are for cot-
ton which lias been shipped and will bo
paid for by foreign buyer*.
So far as this branch of finance is con-
cerned, the country is perfectly easy.
Senator Ilansborough of Dakota showed
the other day that If New York City
would advance money to the northwest,
enough wheat would be sent to Europe to
make the balance of trade perfectly easy.
The trouble seems to be In New Yorlc
that the bankers there want to hog every-
thing and expect the rest of the nation to
stand an amount of foolishness that the
New Yorkers may devise.
the banks are now
milling for an opening
The Chicago banks are writing to their
country correspondents, endeavoring to
feel the ground and see how soon they
can return to a cash basis.
All the country banks have large sums
of money on deposit in Chicago and if the
Chicago fellows can bo assured that the
country banks will not draw largely on
these deposits, they feel that they can re-
sume specie payments at once, but If the
country banks will draw out their money,
then the Chicago banks will delay action
until matters settle dow;, in New York.
The condition Is the same in New York,
Perhaps, when this flurry is over, tihs
country hankers will lend their money at
home and not put themselves in such a
condition as to be held up by Now York
or Chicago.
a pennsylvania
beauty contest war
They had a beauty contest In Taylor-
vllle. Pa., the other night, and Edna Ma-
son, a mulatto girl, won the first prize.
It was given at a charity bazaar.
When the fellows that had been fighting
for a rival beauty, a white girl, learned
of the decision, they were so mad that
they threatened to drive all the colored
people out of town .
It seems there Is no question about
Edna's claim to the prize.
Her grandparents were slaves and sho
was brought up by a wealthy southern
family, who took her to Europe, educated
her aod turned her out as a finished prod-
uct
She could give all the girls at Taylor-
vllle cards and spades, either In beauty
or stylo, and this so enraged the white
fellows1 that they are going around refus-
ing to te comforted.
HJvery colored man is grinning from
ear to ear and remarking, "Fo* de Lord."
sad parting of friends
of bygone days
Bill! Bill! Windy Bill! It's too bad
that wo should part with you in the huff
that you are. We did our level beBt to
- you do honor to the name of Cockle-
bur Bill, but you would not, and out of
compassion for that bloomin', fragrant
product of your farm we dropped it. We
even thought to make you a running mala
of Bill Bryan's, but you bungled the prop-
osition in a way to cause your nearest
and best friends to fear your mental un-
balance and wo haven't mentioned thai
proposition since- Monday. We likewise
gave a lift to a hot air inflation of jours
for next governor, but we couldn't keep
it on tap because of the chilling zephyrs
of people-come-to-their-senses, and it
anished. We've done our best. Bill; an 1
yet. after all, all this, you quit us oohl.
Well, you will excuse these tears, If ]|
must be Bill, it will be. The loss is y-Kir*.
Then fare-thee-weli Bill, and if forever^
still forever, fare-thee-well.
the failing financier
much like a sky rocket
Poor Howard Maxwell, former president
of the Borough Bank of Brooklyn, Now
York, cut his throat and put an end to
his life from sheer chagrin and disap-
pointment over his indictment and arre.it
for grand larceny and forgery. He was
only years old and stood high lm finan-
cial circles. When the crash came, his
bank was involved and the indictment of
himsel', cashier and on« of his directors
followed. He was held in f3ft,000 bonds
and to the surprise of every one who
knew of his popularity in financial and
soci'U circles, no one went on his bond
and he was obliged to go to jail. Thfci
cut him to the quick. He became dt«

Senator Frank Matthews is going after the extrava-
gance manifested in building up the pie counter brig-
ade. The first proposition was to have three pages for
the senate, and that was consummated; the second
proposition was to increase to seven, and that wig
done; the third proposition was to increase to nine,
and at tiiis juncture Mr. Matthews balked. IIe took
the grounds that there was too much extravagance be-
ing maivifcstcd in the especial attention given to the
cry from the pie-counter, and he went after such
methods in a way to set the apron string fellows to
