How peculiar these Chinese arc. any how, if there Is another unused room In that government building at Ports mouth, cannot the government fix It up for n conference between Governors- Ulancbard and Vardaman. v The mayor of Cairo, 111- destroyed a holo carload of banana because there- wero mosqultos In tho car. He did not burn tho car or destroy the mosciultoi. There aro somo great men In this world. An eastern clergyman that Wnmi are largely responsible for the rascality of our times." A Galves ton exchange adiulU the truth of the assertion, adding, "but for women our financial rascal would never navo been born.'' X fortune teller told a New York man to bet on tho racoB on a certain day and he would bo lucky. Hetook J200 from his employer expecting to pay It back and lost. Ho is lucky enoWh now to get hi bread and wa ter at the city's expense without pay ing board. t V 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. Tho only thing that walks back from tho tomb with the mour.iors and refuses to bo burlod Is craractor. That In true. What a man Is survives him. it never can bo burled. It stays about tiu homo whan his footsteps are heard there no more. It lives In the comuni ty where ho was known; nonce, wo nhould tnko care to build into our characters only beautiful things. ",lf newspaper editors know how many knocks Uiey receive behind their back thoy would adopt another calling," remarked a citizen tho other day, say tho Noblo County Sentinel, Tho citizen was mistaken. The news' paper editor who succeeds expects to bo maligned by every law-breaker, 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 lie nnd prlvato matters. Tho newspa per man that expects to go through without bolng mlsrcpiesonted and t.n Justly censured should buy u mon ment, sot measured for a collln nnd prcparo to dlo young. His day of use fulness Is ended. Chloftau. Tho Ualtlmoro Sun sounds a sen slblo noto when It says: "Unless mon ey counts for everything; unless mon ey-mnklng Is the only honornble occu patlon; then tho tnlk of tho great sac rlllco which Mr. lSllhu Hoot makes to accept tho olllcc of secrotary of Htato is wrong. It Is untrue, unpatriotic and harmful. Tho salary of tho olftca Is $8,000 a year and that should be sum clcnt for n family to live on. If It is not sulllclont It ought to hi. Next to tho presidency tho office of socrotary of stnto is perhaps tho hljhunt place In tho service of tho American peo ple, Tho secretary Is noxt af'.jr Ilia vlco president In tho lino oi surces Hlon to tho oillco of chluf magistrate. The doctrine that money Is worth more than such an olllce as that of siUTCtary of stato and tho opportuni ty It Affords to serve one's country nnd gnlti famo and honor Is false, nnd n harmful doctrine to teach young men." ' j . ' 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.

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.
