STATEHOOD SUGGESTIONS.It Is encouragins to note a friendlier feeling

throughout the Indian Territory for the single state-hood idea. No doubt has teen entertained that theadvantages of union with Oklahoma would be amplyappreciated after thorough Inquiry and discussion.The interests of the Territories are identical, andthe plan for ingle statehood contemplates as muchthe welfare of Indian Territory as that of Oklahoma.

Upon several occasions Tke Republic has pointedout the resemblance between the two Territories inresources and capacities, and it has accentuated theopinion that single statehood is the desideratum forunparalleled advancement and prosierity. ProgressIn these Territories has becu marvelous, even againstolpfacles. With the privileges and facilities whichwould lie conferred by statehood, the remarkableachievement of the past few years would be farexcelled.

The population of both Territories Is now a mil-

lion and a half. This is just twice what it was inlbst. There were .KCJt inhabitants in Indian Ter-ritory in HMD), and .'2tsL.'U;i in Oklahoma, a total ofT!siSl. Very careful estimates put the combinedpresent population at l.r.t,u00. If the Territoriesare so attractive to settlers with prevailing disad-vantages, i hey would certaiuly increase their popu-lation at au except tonally rapid rate through theauthority and conveniences of statehood.

The material development of the Territories de-

serves sjK'cial research. Oklahoma bad $2.400.mK)invested iu manufacture in IltOO, as compared withSlOv.000 in lKtO; and the value of manufacturedproducts had Increased from SlSv.fsK) in 1SJI0 to

homa's agricultural products Increased from STifK,-iO- o

iu 1JS to I.Vus in lli0t. In 1IH) the valueof Indian Territory's agricultural products was $27.-7ts.ts-

The rombineil value of the agriculturalproducts in Rum was .S72.7W.O0O.

i'otisidcr the unutilized resources lu oil. gas. coal,iron, copper, load. zinc, quicksilver, gypsum, cobalt,mica awl asphalt. Consider that the area of eachTerritory Is about the same, and that the combinedarea Is about 4r,(nr.t) acres. And consider thesimilarity of natural aspect. All reasons of a prac-

tical class are arguments for single Matehood.Inasmuch as the population has doublet! in five

years, following a decade of wonderful progress,the development during this time Is in due propor-

tion. l.and values rise and rise again within atwelvemonth, and Investment continues to swell andexpand. What prosjx'cts would open out with theliciietits of single statehood'; in view of ihe attain-ment brought about against great dttticiiltlcs. theywould be extraordinarily attractive. the wel-

fare of liotli Territories single statehood is the pro-

gramme on which they should unite, iu order thatwhen Congress opens there may be no confusion Inthe movement toward complete detclopuient.

'.SUGAR IX THE GOURD."Tiie old tune are Imionaut and valuable, espe-

cially fc.r thflr association", and no old tune bringsup a liner 'treasure of remiuiscrmv than "Sugar inthe Gourd." In the possession of the Missouri Historical Society there Is a priceless document relat-ing to pioneer ilajs 'way back yonder in AudrainCounty, and which has to do with this old liddiepiece, among other things.

In adminlltericg public functions Russia baaBrobaWr gone farther than any other country. S

Practically all public aillitlr are owned and mau-t- tby the Government. Hardly any latitude is

left to individual enterprise.Russia is as far from being successful as from

being democratic The Government is everytfcinj:and all. Public utilities are i Mad far ike Cot- -

If this ptoa be realized, there will beasaay proposals for tke properties. Governmentownership has had ao competition la railroad build-ta- g,

and, therefore, there la ao competition for traffic.There are ao competing lines. The Government ad-

hered to the fixed policy of constructing just enoughtrack to meet requirements. There would be pros-pect of large profits to private corporations.

There Is but little difference betweensome of thepublic-ownershi- p Ideas advanced In the UnitedStates and the same ideas as practiced in Russia.Iu one cafie they are public ownership: in the other.Government ownership. In one case, it is a popularsystem; in the other, an autocratic system. Ultimately, the same effect to produced curtailment ofprivate enterprise and encroachment upon individ-ual rights.

The Russian method Is offered for comparison,not for the purpose of attacking the theory of publicownership, but in order to indicate that the theory,unless it is construed conservatively, Is likely tobring about the very evils which It alms to remove.Public ownership has to be applied with strict hon-esty and with scrupulous attention to real democ-racy.

If the Government can be supreme In Russia un-

der a strong autocracy, a governmental system couldbecome supreme in a democracy. An arbitrary sys-

tem would be as undemocratic as a despotic govern-

ment.The application of public ownership Ideas Is In-

evitable. These ideas will vbe enforced In someform, varying according to local or general condi-tions. Administrations need authority to reel theschemes of selfish corporations, to obliterate theevils of private enterprise, and to advance the publicinterests. In other words, original principles haveto be restored.

But it is Imperative that. In applying public own-ership or administrative authority, the system shouldnot be allowed to become so formidable as to crushprivate enterprise. In the safe middle ground isreal democracy.

"Million, million, who got the million;" wouldhave lieen a good title for Mr. Uawson's last In-

stallment. Mr. Lawson Insists that he didn't get it,but he fails clearly to prove that anylnxly rise did.Possibly the accused will have something interestingto say for themselves. -

Now that the Chicago teamsters" strike is brokenthe town can unharness its policemen and let horsesdo the work.

RECENT COMMENTA Moaamrat fa Alton.

M.ir'.; Twain in Harper's Weekly.Someone has revealed to thtj Tribune that I once sug-

gested to tho Reverend Thomas K. Kcechcr of Khnira.N. Y.. that we set up a monument to Adam and thatJlr. Reedier favoted the project. T!iTe Is mor to Ittli.m that. The matter started as a joke, but it camo!mewhat near to iiiafriallziug.

It is long ago thirty years. Jlr. Darwin's "De-fcet- it

of Man" liad been In print file or six yrs, andthe itorm of Indignation raised by It was still raging Inpulpits and periodicals. In tracint; the gem-- ji of thohuman nice back to its sources Mr. Darwin had leftAdam out altogether. Wo had monkey, and "tnissinglinks." nnd plenty of other kintis of ancestors, but noAdam. Jesting with Mr. Iteecher and other friends inI'lmlra. I said there seemd to bo a likelihood that theworld would discard Adam and accept tho monkey. :iiultliat in the course of time Adam's very e would heforgotten In the earth: therefore, this calamity ouht toby averfd. a monument would accomplish th!. andKlrnira might not to waste this honorable opporlualtyto do Adam u favor and herself a credit.

Then the unexected happened. Two bankers cameforward and tootc hold of the matter not for fun. notfor sentiment, but because they saw lzi the monumentcertain commercial advantages for the town. The projecthad seemed gently humorous before it w.i more thantiiat now, with this stem busirics gravity injected IntoIt. The bankers dlscussej the monument with me. Wemet several times. They projH)se.l an Indestructible me-

morial, to cost J.0".). The inatie oddity of a monumentrt up in a vIIIjro to preserve a name that would oulktsithe hills anJ the rocks without any such help, wouldadvrttle Kltnlra to the ends of the rarth and draw(utom. It would be the only monument oa the planetto Ad.im. and lu the matter of Intfrc.--t J.nd Impressive- -ncss could never havo a rlv.il until shouldset up a monument to the Milky Way.

People would come fiotn cery corner of the globu andMop off to look at It; no tour of tlor would would b com-plete that left out Adam's monument. Khnira would b aMecca; sheie would be pilgrim ships . pil-ri- rates,pilgrim special on the continent's railways; librarieswould be written about tho snonu-neii- t; every touristwould kodak It, tuoJels of ft would li for sale every-where in the earth: Its form would become as familiarus the Jlgure of Napoleon.

The Sabbath was aoada fcr an aad aot suafor the Sabtii.-JU- ra U. r.That was probably the Brat scIeaUflestatement of tne law of the Sabbath thathad. ever faliea oa Jewish ears. It la tafinal word on the whole question of taobservance of a day of rest. The moral

to rest on one day ia Sevan can-not rest upon tea code given by Moars.neither can it rest upoa the custom of thechurches. Moral oblicattona are aot cre-ated by laws. The authority of every codemust lie in some necessity, some lawwritten in the constitution cf man, and Itmust be supported by seme evidence ofbenefits received from its observance.

Man needs this day of rest: that factalone give force to this law. Experiencedemonstrates the necessity of the Sundayand the advantage of its res:. The law oftne suDuatn is civcn. not to protect a uay,but to protect the race. Tho day is sacredcot because the Almlchtv stole It fromman's measure of time and kept It forhimself, but because it ta reserved, setuside. saved from man's selfishness forhis hlsfccst it Is desecrated not Inthat men steal it from heaven, but In thatthey despoil it of its possibilities for them-selves.

T.i- - Sabbath Is not an Institution somuch a.s an opportunity. It Is net an idol,a fetich, a something to be served or to bekept in a glass cabinet. It is rather a toolor a servant, a day to rest the body, toturn the eye from its long downward look-in- ir

that it rr.'sht tjlanre up. to straifiht-e- nthe bent back, and the bowed heart

to uplift.This day was made a separate day for

man. not for Ids money, but for himself.It is the little space, the break in thewails of dally crlnd when the soal mayassert itself, when a man may pauselorj enough to remember that he has aricht to say. with upward look. "OurFather." thut he is more than a cos Intids world machine, more than one slavodriven by another.

Tho Sabbath .was made for man, but notfor his ml'ery. Nowlwre is it lovirut lawmore flagrantly violated than when thereligionist would make it a day of stoom.when men aro taucht to put on the garbof mournirur and children learn by harshrepression to dread its dawn and to de-bu- ilt

at its darkening.How then shall on kep this day? By

maklnc it a ddlitht. ties happiest andmost helpful of all the week. Whatevermakes a better, cleaner, stronuer. morevaluable man is rood for the day: what-ever weakens, degrades, cultivates selfish-ness or corrupts the heart is its desecra-tion. An orey of church may be. a. desecra-tion truly thoush not ait disastrously

as an orsv cf pleasure. The day Is tobo Judged by Its fruits on the morrow.That Is a worthy Sabbath that leaves alarirer heart, u clearer had. a noblerspirit, and a deeper love for man, for thisfair world, and for all Rood things.

It must be tho day when the finer qual-ities come :nto day. when tho Inner life,the better olf has a chance. The wholeman Is rested, refreshed as. In the courseof his upward climbing, he comes tothese plateaus of vision. They permit ofdeep breaths, larser outlooks, cheerlrufrttrospects and bracing prospects.

This spirit of Its observation cultivatescare lor others. Everv benefit that comesto ono that one will seek to keen fornil. It 1 a day of opportunity to brushtho cobwebs from some hearts, tobrichten faces and homes with aoodcheer, to cultivate happiness all round.It will surely thn Im a happy day forourselves. It is to keep the daytmrry than to let it net mnaewea.
