nicely, the hardware being now in

street, under the management of Mr.
John Lindsy, and presents a very
creditable appearance. The room on
the south side of the street has been
cleared and buggies placed there,
where Mr. Yates will continue the
buggy, wagon and implement part of
the business. We understand that
the present management will hold a
public sale of riding plows, wagons
and some miscellaneous machinery in
the near future, so as to reduce the
stock, after which Mr. Yates will
continue at the old stana.

Republican's Elect Delegates to the
Enid Oonvention.
Last Tuesday aftenoon the dele-
gates to the Republican convention
to elect delegates to the congress-
ional convention began to arrive in
Norman and by sundown nearly all
the delegates to the convention to be
held ou Wednesday arrived and they
commenced caucussing around. The
greatest interest seemed to center
on who should be elected territorial
committeeman. Hon. Jas. D. Maguire
was being pushed for reelection
and his friends were working hard
in the face of a determined opposi-
tion which centered on Hon. Jji^y
Sherman of Lexington. The con-
flict waged fiercely until the conven-
tion was called to order, both sides
feeling confident that their man
would win. The conference commit-
tee of the republicans appointed to
confer with a like committee of the
Peoples party to consider the pro-
position of agreeing upon a division
of the county ticket met Tuesday
evening and unanimously agreed
upon the proposition made by the
Peoples party county central com-
mittee in every particular save in
the manner in which ticket should be
nominated. The republicans wanted
to nominate their part of the ticket
and the Peoples party to nominate
Dameron-Martin.

In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
traveling about and afterwards his
eamping npon his claim, he encount-
ered much bad water, which, together
with the severe heat, gave him a
very severe diarrhoea which it seemed
almost impossible to check, and along
iu June the case became so bad he ex-
to die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle ot
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A
big dose wa< given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in great
agony, and in a few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effect of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for a fortnight. That
one little bottle worked a complete
cure and he cannot help but feel
gratful. The season for bowel disor-
ders being at hand suggests this
