Issued Every Friday Morning.
Entered at the Postofflca at Cordell, Oklahoma, as second class matter.
It is consistent to preaeli ui>out women neglecting their
home if they gc to the polls to vote, then compel her to go
down to some filthy office to pay her taxes. Many women in
Hobart pay taxew, yet have no voice in the l>ond and sidewalk
proposition. Our forefathers said "taxation without repre-
sentation was tyranny." The same spirit is abroad in Okla-
homa.—Hobart Republican. Yes, just so; but the demo-
crats wrote the 40-acre-Bill mess, and it debars woman from
voting.
000
We ake opposed to the constitution because it takes
alxiut three times as many votes in Washita County to elect
a representative as it does in Greer. We believe this is an
injustice to the democracy, knowing that a Washita democrat
is just as intelligent as a democrat of Greer. We are not in
favor of county lines, making this great distinction among
democrats. Our Washita democrats are not wanting in faith
in the principles of Bryan, Parker and again Bryan; they
can flop as often as it is necessary to fit the issues, and that
is as often as a Greer County Democrat needs to flop; then
why this disfranchisement. There are now four candidates
in the field for the nomination and if the con con had bestow-
ed its blessings as freely on the Washita county democrat as
it did on his Greer county brother, all of these fellows could
have been elected. No, we are against the constitution be-
cause it disfranchises democrats in our county.
Theice is much pleasure in the realization that Oklahoma
has a governor with a veretbra sol strong. Forty-acre Bill
must have forgotten that Governor Frantz had some exper-
ience in handling full blood Indians when he as a squawman
attempted to coerce him. Bill, you will have to come through
with your sheepskin.

Secretary Taft seems to have everything political |
well in hand in Ohio, and the politicians are laying down as
meekly as lambs. It is certainly pleasing to witness such j
good results from the influence of Mr. Roosevelt and Mr J
Taft.
000
It is believed the con-con will reconvene and make an-
other attempt to patch up the constitution that it may not be
so objectijnable to the people. Several of the democratic de-
legates have realized that the constitution as now framed will
be overwhelmingly defeated. That is* what those Sequoyah
fellows want. They never intended to frame a constitution
that would pass the people or be approved by the president.
They are not for joint statehood and will do everything in
their power to prevent it.
ooo
The action of practically all the Ohio Republican lead-
ers endorsing Secretary Taft for the Republican nomination
next year will go a long way toward the great Secretary's
success in securing that nomination. Secretary Taft has
b?en the closest and principal counsellor to President Roos-
velt in his so-called "trust-bustingcrusade," which has made
the administration the most popular ever known since James
Monroe was elected President with all but one electoral vote
Weile other states with "favorite sous'* will make an effort
to land their candidate, yet with the. great popularity of the
present administration :ind its tremendous power backing
Seci'Q ury Taft, his non* ;>tiou, anything* now stand, must
b > considered as a forego;. ■ conclusion.

Is "Cal Bryce" Ilaksell the head and front of a conspir-
acy to defeat statehoodIs it not a fact that he, realizing
his most probable defeat for the gubernatorial nomination at
the hands of the democrats, proposes to see the boon of
statehood lost to his own personal humiliation V Is it not a
fact that to this end lie has instructed his tool "Cockleburr
Bill" Murray to "hang to the Oklahoma constitution until
h- -1 freezes over?" These are questions which are being
freely asked here today amoug politicians of both republican
and democratic parties. It is the express belief of the derao-
ocrats that this state of affairs actually exists and that Has-
kell rt\i': es that his defeat is inevitable and rath r tl a:
suflV i, .cat prefers to see statehood |<>*t. It is a w«.> io\\ii
fact that Murray is as putty in the hands of the "Railroad j
and that he is doing exactlv what is wanted l v his
superior to accomplish the defeat of statehood. It is also a 1
well known fact that Haskell was instrumental in having |
placed in the constitution the most vicious measures, realiz-
ing that thereby this document would prove inacceptible an<l,
that the other "suckers" in the convention stood by and al-
lowed him to do tiiese things. It is charged that at that time
he realized that what is now coming true would come true.

COUNTY CONVENTION
Chairman K. G. Williams has called a county convention
of the Republican party to meet at the court house in Cordell
Saturday, June 1st, to select eighteen delegates to attend
the state convention to be held at Tulsa June t>th. Republi-
cans from every part ot the county should lx* in attendance
and select a delegation of men to go to the stat* e^n vent ion
who will attend. Washita County should ne represented by
a strong and able delegation and make itself felt in the state
gathering.
The call and the apportionment of delegates from each
precinct will be found in another column. Precinct chair-
men|should take immediate steps to give notice for precinct
caucusses and a strong delegation should be sent to the coun-
ty convention.
There is work to do, if the republicans desire to throw
off the constitntiou about to be voted upon us, and the time
is now opportune to begin. Be sure and come out.

Judge Pancoast has sustained the injunction granted
by the Probate Judge of Woods County against the calling
of an election in that county for the purpose of voting on the
constitution. This makes the injunction permanent without
it is dissolved by the Supreme Court which meets in June.

AGAINST THE
CONSTITUTION
People Will Not Down The
Conglomeration of Demo-
cracy and Misrule
Lawis, I. T. A thorough can-
vass of this community indicates
that the republicans are against
the constitution and against the
putting out a ticket at the Tulsa
convention.
Lutie, I. T.-Most of the re-
publicans of this section are
against putting out a state and
county ticket and all are against
the constitution. They Ho not
believe it would be consistent to
nominate a ticket and fight the
constitution, if a strong cam*
paign can be made without a
ticket.
Wilburton, I. T.—Absolute re-
fusal to place a ticket in the field
and a dead set fight on the con-
They are also against placing a
ticket in the field and propose a
straight out fight for principle.
Said T. B. Kessenger, a promin-
ent Garvin County republican,
'"Let's tight it. We will shell the
timber. I do not believe It would
be consistent to nominate a tick-
et and tight the constitution.
That would be too much like a
tramp looking forworkand pray-
ing that he would not ficd it.
We are all against this infernal
document. 'Tis the issue that
will decide the political complex*
ion of this country for years and
will make thousands of republi-
can votes."
Atoka. I. T.—The Atoka re-
publicans. are against the con-
stitution and believe that no
ticket should be placed in the
field, while, of course, the major-
ity of the democrats ate for it.
