"There is a Tide in the
Affairs of Men Which
Taken at the Flood
Leads on to Fortune
yy
Such a Tide is Now in at WINANS'
THE COMPANY'S BUYERS have just returned from the
East where they purchased a line of Dry Goods that will
surely "lead you on to fortune." Be sure you "take it at its
flood" for the "voyage of your life" certainly is not independent
of your common needs.
"On such a full sea are we now afloat." Our shelves are
full of Panamas, Broadcloths, Stylish Wool Suitings and Beau-
tiful Mohair Waistings. We would not Omit the Fall and Win-
ter line of Selby Shoes, which are even more elegant than ever!
The Cloak and Skirt Department are complete.
Men's Suits from Spero & Michaels' are of course at their
best, as they are designed and made from the finest fabrics as
only high class tailors can make them.
"The TIDE is now on, and you must take the current
where it serves, or lose your ventures."

STATEHOOD STATUS.
As was expected, all the dis-
cussion now is on the question
"What Will President Roosevelt
Do With It"'" and there is nearly
as much anxiety among the Dem-
ocrats as there was before the
election. It is certain, at any
rate, that it will be several
months yet before statehood
comes, even ii the President ap-
proves the Constitution, for much
preliminary work has to be done
before it gets to the President.
All the official returns from the
different counties must be submit-
ted to the State canvassing board,
consisting of Secretary Filson,
Judge Burford and Judge Clay-
ton. This board will convene I in
Guthrie on Oct. 8th. It is be-
lieved the board cannot possibly
finish the work before Nov. 1st, j
especially if there are a numberj
of contests, as now seems proba- i
ble. Indeed, it looks now as if]
the matter will get into the courts,!
and in that case no man can tell
where or when it will end. But
even if there are no contests, the
board will have several weeks
work before it.
Then, according to Attorney
General Cromwell, a copy of the |
Constitution must be made in
long-hand, together with a copy
of the election ordinance and J
other papers, for the President, j
and this will tane a month or sixj
weeks. This would be Dec. 15th
or later, and then the President
would have twenty days after
that. And he may conclude to
submit the whole matter to Con-!
gress; and if it gets there who can
tell what will become of it, or j
what will happen?
Do you remember those Jap-
anese balloons at the Old Set-:
tiers picnic? To our mind theyj
are typical of Statehood at this
time. It is up in the air. It may
light, and it may burst.
