REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.
1. The republican party of Oklaho-
ma in convention assembled, re-affirms
its allegiance te the platform of 1900
and to all the glorious principles of the
republican party.
2. Wo congratulate the people on the
signal prosperity of all the people of
the country, as a result of the com-
plete fulfillment of republican pledges
and the beneficent application of re-
publican politics. All vocations share
aHko in the good times and splendid
conditions of the present. The labor-
ar, the farmer, the merchant and pro-
fessional men equally enjoy the high-
est reward for their.toil, and peace and
contentment cover the entire land.
3. As this isthe first organized as-
semblage of the Republican party of
this territory aince the deliberately
planned and unprovoked murder of
President McKinley, we desire to go
upon record as not only condemning
the act itself, but also to express our
utter abhorrence of the] wicked, per-
nicious, treasonable doctrine responsi-
ble for such unpardonable crime
against humanity and free govern-
ment. We hold sacred the memory of
William McKinley whose gentle life
and pure character are among the most
lasting and valuable bequests left the
American people. As an humble, un-
pretentious, modest citizen, as a broad-
minded patriotic statesman, as a lover
of liberty, as a consistent God fearing
Christian, we honor, love, and revere
his memory.
4. We endorse the firm and states-
man-like administration of President
Roosevelt, the sterling soldier and
progressive citizen. His stalwart Amer-
icanism and thorough Republicanism
are impressing the country to the good
of all the people. In his official acts
performed since assuming the arduous
duties of his high office, President
Koosevelt has shown himself to he the
worthy successor ef the illustrious pa-
trioQand martyr whom he succeeded.
5. We commend and appreciate the
high patriotism of our arms and navy,
and condemn the democratic party for
assailing their integrity and honor.
Desperate must a party be which for
partisan purpeses will attempt to cast
odium and dishonor on our boys in
blue who are valiantly upholding the
Hag of our country. The annals of the
civil war, and the heroic records of our
Boldiers and sailors in the Spanish-
American war, place the United States
first in naval and military power, and
the nation first in international influ-
ence and prestige,
6. Wo believe in expansion—that
wherever our fiagof enlightenment and
higher civilization is placed, there it
shall remain for the betterment of the
people over whom it Hosts.
7. We are for reciprocity, the servant
of protection, and heliovein extending
it to Cuba, as recommended by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, when by the exchange
of products no American product
which needs protection is injured.
8. We believe in the free rural deliv-
cry system, which evidences the care-
ful care of the republican party, for
the general welfare of the people. Rj
this system the farmer is given equal
mail facilities with the city man and
general enlightenment is advanced.
9. We endorse the Flynn statehood
hill, which has passed the house aud
i|ow (lending in the seuute, und we
periority and care for the needs of the
! people. His signal influence in eon-
; gress and his marvelous attainment of
! legislation for this territory, place him
' in the everlasting memory of the peo-
ple of Oklahoma. So indefatigable and
constant have been bis purposes and
efforts for our people ; so crowned with
success his every undertaking, and ap.-
preciative of the inestimable benefits
his achievements have brought us, we
heartily tender him our thanks, ap-
prove and applaud his unswerving
fidelity to duty, and hereby declare
our full confidence in his determina-
tion and ability to crown his work as
delegate by adding Oklahoma to the
union of states.
12. We endorse the administration
of Governor T. B. Ferguson as wise,
patriotic and honest. The administra-
tion ef the school land office and all
the departments of territorial govern-
ment show that able management and
careful care for the people’s welfare
wbieh always signalizes Republican
government.
13 We approve the administrations
• f the various federal officers of Okla-
homa as carefully justify ing the con-
fidence reposed in them by the ap-
pointive power.
14. The Republican party believes in
the widest and freest education. Our
party is based upon enlightenment and
progress- We have free teachers and
free school houses and free text books
also. We stand for the passage of a
law by the next legislature, providing
for the purchase of text books by
the territory and furnish them free te
the school children ; that the children
of the poor as well as the rich may have
the broadest opportunity for an edu-
cation. To this end we ask the support
of all people who believe in education,
career of grandeur, and build here a
state proud among the states of the
Union, lhe Republican party has put
into effect all the reforms necessary
for the permanent and increasing pros-
perity of the country. The per capita
circulating medium has been raised to
$2S.54 of money good the world over.
The anti trust legislation has been
passed and active proceedings begun
against all unlawful combines. Ihe
Republican party ha« carried out its
pledges to Cuba for independent gov-
ernment. This country has been ex-
alted under Republican rule to the
highest national power and is respected
and envied by all the nations and kmg-
doms. Pointing to these accomplish-
ments and the splendid conditions of
the country, we invite all elements,
whatever their former party affilia-
tions to join the Republican party in
its forward march for the exaltation of
our beloved country and the better-
ment of the condition of all classes of
its people.______
Reports received at the State De-
partment indicate that the presence of
the United States squadron under the
command of Rear Abmiral Crownin
shield-in various European ports is hav-
ing the effect of facilitating the work
of our European consuls, the pretence
of so tine a fleet materially increasing
the respect of the natives for the
United States.____
It is generally believed that, having
won ose more triumph in his state
and secured a position which will make
it comparatively easy to return Sena
tor Penrose to the Senate, Senator
Quay will announce that he cannot ac-
cept reelection even if he is able to
serve through his present term- Mr.
Quay’s health is extremely delicate.

L. O. WOODS,
Secretary Moody is rapidly confirm-
ing the wisdom which lead the Presi-
ui dii - oo ------. ~ ...----------- dent to elect for the naval portfolio a
and that the greatest diffusion of I man who had for so long and s® credi-
irnnirioitffA will make the greatest tably been associated with the House
knowledge will make the
state. A comprehensive public school
system established anti fostered by
our territory will in future years be-
come the bulwark of a grand and pros-
perous state. We believe that such
provisions incorporated into our
statutes as the foundation of our school
system would be an evidence of high
and noble spirit, would command the
admiration and support of good people
and be a lasting monument, to the fu-
ture great state of Oklahoma.
15. The republican party is the orig-
inator of the national policy of free
homesteads. Tha Republican party of
Oklahoma was the originator of this
movement in this territory and through
its delegate to congress secured free
homes for all the Oklahoma opened at
the time of the passage of the bill.
We pledge to the people of the Kiowa
arulComanche country since opened to
settlement, our earnest efforts in the
acquirement of free homes for them.
10. We believe the legislature should
take proper steps to accept the offer of
congress to donate Fort Supply reser-
vation to the territory for public pur-
poses.
17. We favor the organization of all
committee on Naval Affairs. Mr.
Moody is putting into practice many
•f the reforms which he received in
that capacity._
President Reosevelt lias reocntly em-
phasized his attention of "dealing
with the trusts” ; but the business msn
of the country have no fear that his
method of doing s® will In any way
resemble the anarchistic demagogery
of the democratic—populistic school
of economists.

Th® anti-imperialistic issue, inspir-
ed by “the Peerless Leader” has proven
as much a boomerang as did the “16 to

Th® aerimenfous sarcasm with which

The Public Lands committees of
both the House and the Senate have
reported favorably on a bill to make a
national park of the territory which
includes the wonderful Wind Cave of
South Dakota.
The Senate wa3 surprised one day
recently at the receipt of a lommuni-

‘T. Roosevelt.” Stress of executive
duty seems to have curtailed, even the
President’s signature. _

In the politisal speech which Repre-
sentative “Jim” Richardson interject-
ed into the debate on the general De-
ficiency bill that gentleman forgot to
mention the ‘ horrible” disclosures of
one Captain Christmas investigation,
for which the gentleman from Tenn-
essee stood sponsor.
The Salvador Government has pass-
ed a law providing t+iat any Salvador
attorney who shall represent an Amer-
ican in the courts of that country shall
be subjected to life imprisonment.
The sentiment which prompted that
law is not likely to induce an influx
of American capital.
The threat that Great Britain will
effect a reciprocity treaty with Cuba
falls rather fiat in view of the fact that
Great Britain has practically no tariff
duties from which to grant concess-
ions. She has a duty on tobacco but it
is the duties on sugar which the Cu-
bans find most onerous.
Triumph of having initiated the con-
struction of the Isthmian canal will
belong to the Fifty seventh Congress,
a Congress distinctively republican in
both branches. By the terms of the
Spooner amendment, should the Pana-
ma route prove impracticable, opera-
tions will be immediately begun on
the Nicaragua route.
The Secretary of the Interior re-
cently discovered that the Government
was serving out rations to some 450
able bodied Apaches and discontinued
the practice. The Apaches threatened
to go on the war path and the rations
were resumed temporarily but Mr.
Hitchcock says that it is only until an
understanding with the Indians can be
arrived at.
