CAMPAIGN
THE BIG BLOW OUT PLANNED BY
REPUBLICANS ENDS IN A
GRAND FIZZLE
ORATORS MISSED CONNECTION
With the Meeting. The crowd was
Disappointed
v 'he whirl wind finish of the city
campaigh planned by the republi-
cans failed to materialize. Accord-
ing to atJnouncementon exhibition
was to occur on the streets but it
proved to be a most successful fiz-
zleV.. At 7:30 a few stragglers had
gathered on the street corners i n
anticipation of big doin's. Chief
of Police Hopkins hai gathered up
a bunch of sixteen extra policemen
and these were lined up under the
command of that dignified officer of
the law. Goodwin in anticipa-
tion of a possible stampede iu the
throng that was expected to pack
the streets. Time passed on and
three or four more were added to
the crowd One of these Ike Cloud
democrat becoming impatient ex-
ploded a big firecracker the opening
gun" and then the crowd attracted
by curiosity grew larger. Tbe
weather was threatening" and the
charge was openly made that
Chairman Carmicbael of the dem-
ocratic forces had o-tiered a storm
with the avowed purpose of break-
ing up the meeting. The fire de-
partment made a practice run or
two to distant corners of the town
and Fechheimer accused the dem-
ocrats of engineering this play as a
counter attraction.
About 8:30 it wits announced
that the speaking would take place
in the opera house and thither
the crowd composed mostly of
democrats hiked. A very respect-
able crowd it was and they took
thdr seats patiently awaiting the
opening of the peifortuauce. Fech-
heimer alone of the leaders show ed
up. Iater Postmaster Rose and a
few others put in their appearance.
Th'.' "spielers" failed to appear. It
wf nearly nine o'clock and the
1 svd was becoming very impatient
A little ante-morten consultation
was held and J. A. Rose ascended
the platform to announce the de-
mise of the patient utter a short
eulogy and pronounce the bene-
diction .He thanked the democrats
who had come out admitted that
the republicans were sleeping but
predicted that they would awake
in the morning doubtless referring
o the ' resurrection morn." And
the agony was-over.
TWO NOTABLE ATTRACTIONS.
Mme. Noidica and Innes' Celeb-
rated Band at Oklahoma City
Mme Nordica the great prima
donna soprana will appear in Okla-
homa City April 24th as one of
the numbers "on the Music Festival
concert there. Mm. Nordica closed
her engagement in New York the
last of March and began her concert
tour immediately. She will only
appear once in the two territories
at Oklahoma City under the
management of Hathway Harper.
Besides Nordica other distinguis-
hed talent has been engaged for
the festival which promises to be
the greatest treat ever given to the
people of the south west. Innes'
Orchestral Band has been engaged
for the fouf concerts. One of these
concerts will be the Children's
Festival of Song when a thousaad
school children will sing being led
by the band; another concert by
the band will be the grand patriotic
concert "America" an allegory on
the Civil war. William H Sher-
wood the great pianist will also be
another of the attractions. .

less will reserve seats for all who
wish to attend from Chickasha.

ter see about your seats now be-
'f ore the best ones ate gone. Phone

-The Rock Island depot at Rich-

moved to a new town Junction

a town of any magnitude. Already
a town has been laid off at Junc-

How one in Chickasha Defended
his bad Habit
'An old batchelor in Chickasha
when remonstratod with on the evil
habit of smoking wrote as follows
in answer to a letter from his sis-
ter: "Smoking is one of the accomp-
lishments of a southern gentleman.
Two men don't know each other
until they have had a quiet smoke
together. There is no more cop-
genial atmosphere for the expres-
sion of 'ofty ser-timent than the at-
mosphere that is filled with the
smoke of a pure Havana. Whose
thoughts are so common that he
could not utter poetical expressions
when he is stretched on an easy
chair in slippers and smoking jack-
et watching the smoke of a good
cigar as in rings and clouds it floats
above him? In those clouds he can
picture feiries and the faces of ab-
sent friends and sweethearts and
never an evil spirit or the face
of an enemy. To get down to every
day living smoke drives mosquitos
away perfumes the lace curtains
the ashes from a cigar keeps moths
out of the carpet and cigar stubs
make house plants grow. And last
but not least ' when the boys are
lined up for a drink and there is
som: fellow who knows his capaci-
ty and feels that it is about taken
up he cm say "m ake mine a cigar
please sir."
D.C Patterson who has been audit-
tor for the past two years left this
morning for Oklahoma Citj- where
heopens an auditing office under the
name of "The Modern Audit Sys-
tem." He is connected with a
company in which J. II. Johnston
secretary of The Chamber of Ccm-
merse and other prominent busi-
ness men are interested1
Jesse Cotham left yesterday for
Hobart where takes charge of the
books in the Turner Produce Co's.
office. His many friends in Chick-
asha will miss him.

Murtrie whoewn the frame 'build-
ings between the Midway Hotel

ern two story brick buildings.

STATEHOOD BILL DRAGGING.
Conferees Will Agree on Basis
Foraker Amendment.
Washington April 2 Although
the section relating to Arizona and
New Mexico which the senate
struck out of the statehood bill has
not been discussed both sids in
conference committee cofidently
expect to reach an agreement on
the basis of the Forakeramendment
when the minor amendments are
out of the ay. Probably a week
or more will drag along before this
matter is reached as neither side is
willing to appear anxious. It is
betieved that this compromise will
be accepted by the house as well
as the senate and that there are
enough democratic senators who
will vote for the provision to offset
the defeccion of Senator Foraker
and other republicans which is
threatende.

however get thp work all out in
good time and will soon be in shape
to handle any amount of work.
A Rock Island grading gang of
