FINDING FAULT.
No effort is being spared by
Republican politicians and special
interests to belittle the work of
the constitutional convention in
an effort to destroy the confidence
of the people. Nothing the Dem-
ocrats can do seems to please
them. It is a matter of curiosity
to know what kind of a constitu-
tion the Republicans would have
framed. They probably do not
know themselves. It is not prob-
able, however, that with such
men as Henry Asp in control the j
"" constitution wouM have been for
the best interests of the xommon I
people. Hut while it is a matter
of raere conjecture as to what the ] most of which tim ■
Republicans would have put into principal of the city
the constitution, it does not re-
quire a very vivid imagination to
conjecture what they would have
left out.
In the first place they would
! not have tampered with a "Jim
j Crow" law. 0, no, they would
not have done that. Not that
they love the negro more or that
they desire to associate with him
oij terms of social equality; not
that they wish to see their chil-
dren mingle with negro children
i in the public schools, but simply
i because they need the negro vote
to help them gain and maintain
, , political control.
- j They would not have favored
f u. a Primary election law, for that
| puts the selection of candidates
the hands of the people instead j
of allowing them to be dictated
by special interests.

Are You
A subscriber for the SKXTI-
nel? If not, why not? You
should gel in line- History is
now making in the Indian Ter-
ritory. Soon the old order of
things will have l assed away
antl the country will start out
under a new dispensation.
The representatives of the
people are at work at Guthrie
framing a Constitution for the
new State of Oklahoma, which
will no doubt be the funda-
mental law of the common-
wealth for all time to come,
and this Constitution will be
the platform of the Democratic
party.
You should keep posted as
to what is going on, as it is of
vital importance to you.
The Sentinel
is the onlv Democratic organ
in this immediate vicinity, and
if you believe in Democratic
principles and are interested
in the perpetuation of the
Democratic party in power,
you should encourage by your
support those papers that are
advocating those principles
and are fighting, the battles of
the Democratic party.
The Sentinel will continue
in the future, as it has in the
past, to be
Consistently
Democratic
laboring in season and out of
season for Democratic success,
because we believe that in the
Democratic party alone rests
the best interests of the com-
mon people.
But the Sentinel ""ill not onlv
be a party organ. It is the
aim of the management to
make it a newspaper in all that
the term implies. It will be
our endeavor to give all the
Local News
that we think will be of gen-
eral interest, presented in a
readable form. I he Sentinel
will always be found laboring
for the upbuildiug of Kiowa
aud the best interests of her
citizens.
We will also give a resume
of the important happening of
the week as nleaaed from the
daily press dispatches.
None is too poor to take the
Sentinel. The price is only
$1.00 Per Year
That is less than 10 cents a
month and less than 2 cents a
Apy.
If you haven't a dollar to
spare, send us 25 cents for
three months and give it a
