propose to make it the
greatest social event in the history of
Oklahoma. I need not tell you that
it will be a success when you are
informed that the women of '89,
those who braved the hardships of
the historic opening o. Oklahoma to
settlement, are behind the move-
ment. More than 1200 invitations
have or will be sent out to all parts
of the state. It is not intended that
the ball shall be exclusively for the
*89ers, but is intended rather that
the brawn, brain, youth, beauty,
grace and the flower of the whole
state of Oklahoma be here and com-
mune together as one harmonious
whole.
However, the 22nd will be given
over to the '89ers exclusively. A
grand parade in which the various
departments of the city, including
merchants, school children, industrial
and secret orders, will participate.
Also, there will be pulled off under
the direction of Hon. C. G. Jones a
re-enactment of the opening of Ok-
lahoma to settlement in miniature
form, it being the purpose to have
the run open to all comers and to
offer a number of prizes to those
who capture the best claims, the
committee having in mind to cut up
or laying off in small farms the
ground in front of the amphitheatre
in the fair grounds. The race will
be started some two or three miles
east of the fair grounds, and the
line will b* paroled by United States
soldiers. Of course, there will be
sooners that will be captured and
driven out to the line before the
opening, and there also will be some
sooners who will rise up, as it were
out of the earth, in time to capture
the best of the prize claims, who,

All indications point t othe renom-
ination of Representative John ti.
Grant without opposition. The adop-
tion of resolutions, however, may be
the signal for a spirited debate in
the convention. While nerhaps the
majority of the delegates look upon
the indorsement of the Taft adminis-
tration as a matter of course, there
are some who are outspoken in their
opposition to such an indorsement.
The opposition arises almost wholly
from the action of President Taft in
giving preference to some democrats
over republicans in his appointments
to federal positions in this state.
AT THE PEOPLES'.
IThere was lots of comedy, thrill-
ing situations and good musical
features at the performance of "An
Indiana Girl" at the Peoples' Friday
night. The Alhambra Stock com-
pany presented the thrilling tale of
real life in the oil belts of Indiana
in four acts. Minnie Alderman, as
the Girl, was immense in her sou-
brette lead and Verne Alderman as
Rosenbaum, the Jew, created no end
of merriment with his clever charac-
ter delineation.
The same bill will be presented
Saturday night. New musical num-
bers by the Alhambra orchestra and
a change of vaudeville features will
be given Saturday night.
