A republican convention for
the selection of candidates to the
Constitutional convention has
been called to meet in Bridge*
port on Tuesday, October 2nd,
1906.
Conservative democrats have
already conceded Ferguson's
election in this district, but they
say they are going to put up an
aggressive fight in order to cut
down his votes to the lowest pis*
sible number.
The democratic campaign com-
mittee has speakers prancing all
over the territory, but if reports
are true they are not doing much
talking. *They are willing to
orate, but they can't get enough
people together at any one time
to hold a meeting.
The democratic dream of a
split in the republican party in
the Second congressional district
has gone glimmering, just like
all their prophesies. Every re-
publican paper in the district is

whooping it up for Ferguson, and
the people are united for him all
over the district.
It looks now as if the republi-
cans in the Blaine county end of
the 39th constitutional district
would have no candidate for elec-
tion to the constitutional conven-
tion. If such is the case we can
all go over in Caddo county and
help them nominate a good man
and then see to it that he is
elected.
Mexico's postal department has
a novel method of informing the
public oi the weather bulletins
given out by the weather bureau.
Every letter which passes through
the office is now stamped with the
indications for the next twenty-
four hours. This stamping is done
at the same time as the postage
stamps on the letter are canceled
and the receiving stamp fixed.
The committeemen of the var-
ious townships in the 39th con-
stitutional district met at Hinton
last Thursday and organized by
electing Geo. A. Wilson, chair-
man and H. A. White, secretary.
It was decided to hold the con •
vention in Bridgeport on Oct.
2nd, and the basis of representa-
tion will be one delegate for
every ten votes or major fraction
cast for B. S. McGuire in 1904.
This gives the district 111 dele-
gates.
One or two little gimlet-headed
democratic editors in the Second
congressional district are devot-
ing the major portion of their
patent medicine guides to roast-
ing Tom Ferguson ea.ch week.
Their rantings have about as
much effect with the voters as
dead fleas on a dog's back. These
same wind-jammers told you
that Ferguson could not be nom-
inated, and they laid awake for
many nights before the conven-
tion concocting rotten lies about
Ferguson, but they couldn't fool
the people then and won't be able
to when it comes to the election
of Ferguson.
Ex-Gov. Ferguson carried the
convention at Geary last Saturday
on the 30th ballot. The "ma-
chine," as well as the other fel-
low* worked hard, but all in vain.
It was evident from almost the
beginning that Ferguson was the
popular choice, but the other
candidates probably figured out
that "while there's life, there's
hope." The nomination of Fer-
guson practically insures his
election. Not only that, but it
will go a long way toward a re-
publican victory at the next gen-
eral election. From our ac-
quaintance with T. B. we feel
confident of his support in the
temperance cause.—Gage Ban-

The "Wilyum Jennie Briun"
club had a meeting in Odd Fel
lows hall Monday evening to hear
Hon. W. C. Hughes explain what
the democratic party might do if
it ever got a chance. All citizens
and especially ladies, were urged
to be present, which we presume
was for the purpose of swelling
the crowd a little. There were
about thirty democrats, and a few
republicans who were allowed to
stay in the hall until the speaker
came forth and announced that
all democrats who were genuine,
and in reality mossbacks, should
stay for a few minutes, but all
intending to vote a republican
ticket would please pass out very
quietly. If our republican cen-
tral committee would send out a
man to make a campaign speech
that couldn't make a better one
than this speaker did we would
not mention his being here in this
moral guide.
The democrats over the terri-
tory are putting up an awful wail
because they think the republi-
can party will have a majority
in the Constitutional convention.
The republicans should control
this convention. It will be great-
ly to the interest of the people
living in Oklahoma and Indian
Territory. The democratic party
has always made a muss or af-
fairs when they was in power,
nationally and locally, and it
stands to reason that they would
do likewise if they snould control

the Constitutional convention.
The voters are wise to these facts
and will hardly give our demo-
cratic friends an opportunity to
juggle with the coining laws of
the state of Oklahoma.
At a meeting of the republican
central committee in Watonga
Monday, Hon. J. C. Fisher re-
signed as chairman an,d A. H.
K«ith, of Homestead was elected
as his successor. Mr. Fisher has
made a successful chairman, but
his new dutieB as congressional
committeeman made it imperitive
that he resign as oounty chair-
man.
William Jennings Bryan has
succeeded in splitting the demo-
cratic party in two again and the
roseate outlook for the success of
that organization in the next
campaign has "gone flitting
through the fogs of unknown
lands." Bryan's New York
speech did the business and now
the leading democrat papers of
the east assert that hei9 no long-
er a demoorat but a socialist.
Bryan claims that Roosevelt stole
his clothes and it might be that
to hide his nakedness he had to
don the socialist garb.—Cleo
