Chickasha Democrats Attend Bryan Banquet
are Pleased with the Administration.
The Grady county democrats who
attended the Bryan banquet in Guth-
rie returned yesterday. Mr. Bryan
addressed the legislature and an im-
mense audience at the opera house in
the "'..fternoon his speech being chiefly
of a non-partisan nature and at the
banquet when over 500 democrats
from all parts of the state were seat-
ed he deliverel what was considered
one of the ablest political addresses
that ever fell from the lips of uhe dis-
tinguished Nebrnskan. J. F. Bishop
and C. I. Greer who occupied prom-
inent places gave utterance to fervid
"amens" and Col. Barefoot said he
endorsed every word of it. Mr. Cope-
land said it was a great speech.
The Chickasha people were also
highly pleaseJ with the way the dem-
ocrats are running things at the cap-
ital. Every officer from Governor
Haskell down is filling his place just
like he had been accustomed to it for
life. It was also especially gratify
ing to find the Grady county members
of the legislature have taken high
lank in that body.
Col. Barefoot said "I inquired par-
ticularly as to the conduct of our re-
presentatives and. reports I heard of
everyone made me proud of them. Dr.
Kiddle i3 recognized as a leader and
one of the strongest men on the floor
of the house. Speaker Murray has
shown hi3 confidence in the doctor by
app'iint'ng him on the most important
committees. Robert Johnson in an-
other man for whom everybody has
praise. lITs quiet manner and the
business method with which he enters
into his work have made a splendid
impression he is one of the men who
is making a reputation for doing
things. His appointment as chair-
man of the committee on banks and
banking was a fine recognition of hi3
ability. In the senate Mr. Taylor has
already attained an influential posi-
tion. He 'has introduced a number of
important bills and his advice is heed-
ed on every proposition that arises.
Grady county is fortunate in having
such splendid representatives and all
of us should be proud of them."

Urges People to Help
Remove Restriction
s
(By Congressman Ferris.)
Washington Dec. 22 The Oklaho-
ma delegation is working hard for
the removal of restrictions on the
sale of Indian lands in Oklahoma. Wj
take the view that it will lessen and
equalize taxes; that it is better for
the country and citizenship of both
and all races; that it will hasten the
development of the country; that it
(chances of success brighter. We are
working hard but we need assistance
from you.
Members from other states do not
properly understand the necessity of
this measure. They do not know
what it will contribute to the progress
ofour state. Let them know from
your own pen. A letter addressed to
th em here in Washington will reach
will bring substantial home owners1 thm Jt Uke3- ori'y three days for
where now tenants are forced to be"' to come" Organue and see if you
tenants; because it will make a bet-l cannot get a letter t0 every ""P
ter school fund; will build more
school houses for the bright-eyed boys
and girls of this land; it will build
bridges over the streams and draws;
will reduce illiteracy and will make
each one hundred and sixty acres a
happy prosperous and contented
home. With home ownership come in-
dependence happiness and good cheer
all hand in hand.
You people who sit by your own
firesides at r.ight should give these
matters some thought. Give us the
benefit of your ideas. Write to your
congressmen from your old district
in your old home state. He will be
glad to get the letter. He will then
then think you are depending on him
and will assist us and make the
man and senator from some friend
who needs this legislation.

it FERSOSAl GUARANTEE
FOR ISSTE CHISTO
The word guarantee is much over-
worked. Everybody can use it and
almost everybody does. It is a pity
U it i-o (tmised. Guarantee is a
g )d word when it means anything.
I use it because I have made it mean
cuiUciluiig. Cut this out and lake it
villi yu to the theater Christmas
matinee or evening and if after the
first net you are dissatisfied with the
entertainment given your money wilij
le refunded. I personally guaran-
tee the excellence of this attraction.
