ers Gov. Frantz
and Silas Reed
The Orators
An immense crowd heard Gover-
nor Frantz and Silas Reed from a
stand elected in front of the Midway
Hotel hist evening. It was a mixed j
crowd politically and while occasion-
ally there was an outburst of applause
yet for the most part it was undemon-
strative and especially were assault"!

after giving the boys there the glad

Midway Hotel the Chickasha band
accompanying and furnishing its best
brand of music.
While the crowd was gathering in
the evening the band gave a fine con-
cert and about 8:1" Dr. Charles P.
Brown introduced the first speaker
Mr. Reed the nominee of his party
for attorney general.
Mr. Reed possesses a strong sono-
rous voice and has a good fund of
anecdotes and ready wit which pleas-
ed the crowd. He began with the fa-
miliar argument that in order to get
statehood and the removal of restric-
tions Oklahoma lnunl !ect men in
harmony with the administration and
then came the startling statement
"You say this is a game of politics

card that will take the trick."
The only advice submitted bearing
direcly on the duty of the voter in re.
lation to the constitution was ex-
pressed in these words "Those of you
who heard Secretary Taft will un-
derstand your duty better than I can
tell it to you." It will be recalled
that Taft said he would vote against
the constitution if he had a chance.
The speaker then took up certain
phases of the constitution. "There
are some good things in it hut it is
as full of ohjectionable matter as a
dog is of fleas." The fellow servant
law was commended and the conven-
endum had been destroyed by the
amendment to it and said republicans
were in favor of this proposition al-
though they have not so declared in
their platform. The tax provision
was strongly condemned. The speak-
er closed by addressing the audience
on his own candidacy setting forth
his career as a farmer and laborer
and appealing to this class of voters.
In opening he had expressed the opin-
ion that Oklahoma was going to get
statehood and he ended by saying
"Vote for Frantz and you'll get
statehood.
Governor Speaks
Governor Frantz was presented to
the audience by Dr. Brown and he be-
gan by saying "I'm nut going to
sbue democrats" and telling a story
ti illustrate his point said "I'm not
in a position to mnke any enemies.
He then begnn a criticism of the con-
vention. "This convention was lim-Jlom Cliton Warren Lee Goss

The Central Rooming House was
the scene of this morning's fire and
is now b.ully wrecked. The fire is
suppose! to have started from a de-
fective flue in the kitchen and first
set the attic ablaze. It had a good
start before the fire boys reached the
scene and all of the rooms were flood-
ed before the fire was put out. Much
damage was done by both fire and
water.

Pritchard of the U. S. Circuit court
in his long opinion announced today

that the judicial power of the United

it becomes necessary that we join

what I can?" Can you not pray more

the church and in your work for the Each 'ear has shown a steady in-
Master? Let us proceed with re- crease in scho1 enrollment and the
newed confidence in our plea and infour handsome and commodious build-
