Sango and Soper
ATTEMPT TO BREAK UP A
REPUBLICAN MEETING
AND GET FOOLED
IN THEIR SCHEME
At ilio big Republican moot-
ing hold jit 01(1 Agency last
night with over 200 men pres-
ent and three ladies the big
hluil'er. Sango attempted to
break up the meeting while the
little bluffer Soper stood out
side the house and tried to in-
Maine the two Hopkins fellows
lit there to do deeds of violence.'
The big bluffer sat quietly in
Ibe-meeting until Rev. Norris
finished his speech and as Dr.
Waterford was next on program
the big bluffer who evidently
had his orders from his boss
sprang to his feet with eyes pro-
truding from their sockets
screamed out: uI's gwin ter
speak.else nobody speaks in dis
house." The chairman told Mr.
Bluffer tnat he could not speak
tonight and then the big burly
bluffer went into spasms and so
frightened the ladies that the)
retired from the house and some
of the men left also but some
remained and insisted that the
burly bluffer be not allowed to
speak he did not speak; he was
permitted to leave the room and
then the people all returned
and Mr. J. D. Lewis made a
splendid speech in thacause of
right and was followed by -Dr.
Waterford who made a rousing
enthusiastic speech and was
cheered by the hundreds pres-
ent. The closing talk was made
by V. H. Twine
The antics of the Big JBluffer
Sango are in keeping with the
aqts of the other part of the six
shooter gang who can only rule
by force and violence. The poor
devils can't get up a meeting of
their own and they insist on
coming to our meetings to speak.
The people are all afraid of these
bulldozers and while they fear
them they won't allow them to
speak at our meetings and in-
sult our women. Reporter.

Last JVight 175 People Pposont.
Bo it Resolved that wo the people of the 3rd Precinct of the
751 li District hereby heartily en lorso the candidacy of C. W.
Raymond as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention. We re-
cognize in him the regular nominee of the Republican Party he
having carried 10 uiit of 12 of the precincts of this district and
carried the Republican Convention by 4(5 votes to 0 vote? for Hop-
kins. We recognize in him an ardent and truo Republican u good
citizen of Muskogee a man who has always stood for a square
deal and who will be right in the Convention.
We fel J hat the rights of the people as members of a free
government arc at stake. If the actions of the opposition at "the
Convention' in trying to choke the voice of the people with deputy
marshals and mx shooters are to win in this contest the Republi-
can parly and tho right to a free and untrammeled expression of
the people in their affairs receives a severe blow. We pledge Mr.
Raymond our votes on Nov. 6th and hearty good will.
$200000.
Raymond brought $200000
into this city when he came and
paid it out to our citizens for
property. It is here now. jNo
other one man over brought so
much money here to .help our
city. s it possible that our
people want to drive capital
away? Last year ho paid out
$2000 for paving our streets.No
other single man has paid out so
much for paving. Are you a-
gainst that?
Hopkins has never paved one
foot. Ho brought nothing here
to help our city and yet some
silly people talk about Hopkins
helping build Muskogee.
Let's bo sober and intelligent
about this matter. The fellows
who oppose Raymond and use
such arguments are simply a
lot of little politicians whoso
only ambition is to tear down
others. -They add nothing to
our town but tho trouble they
bring and cause. Let's tear them
down.
