Description

Weekly newspaper from Lexington, Oklahoma Territory that includes local, territorial, and national news along with advertising. On February 22, 1899, Oscar M.

From the beginning Doins was a Democratic newspaper and switched its publication day from Thursday to Friday in support of their chosen party.
