= A OUfcSTION OF STATEH<K)I>.
Two years ago Bill Cro»> made, how wholly unreasonable are
most of his campaign speeches in J tj,e statements being made by dem-
Greer county. He himself wasI^ratic newspapers and speakers to
"hecandidate then, now the catidi- Lj,e effect that if Mathews is elect-
I ed we will get statehood sooner
than we will if McGuire is elected!
There is no doubt but either of
now the candi
date is another man whose home is I
in Greer county and yet "Uncle
Bill'' is assigned to make the Greer
county campaign. Why does
the committee do tb is? I)o they
think he can do less harm in Greer
county than elsewhere?
The Hon. T. N. Robiuette, of
Ardmore, and C. H. JCagiu, candi-
date for county attorney, will
make a series of speeches in this
county next week in the interest
»f the republican party. Mr. Rob-
inette is a stroug and forcible
sper.ker. Doubtless many Greer
county people know of him as he
is formerly of Texas. Their dates
are announced elsewhere in this
Paper,
Unci.k Bii.l Cross had a large
audience when he sjH»ke in Man-
gum last week. Many who had
never heard him make a speech
went out of curiosity Iteeause they
had heard so much of him. They
were greatly disappointed if not board of judges, but there is poli-
really shocked by his coarse talk tics in it and the politics are in
and bad Knglish. Aud worse than favor of McGuire. All branches
that he seemed to have no regard!of the national government are in
for tht- truth. He tnade state- \ the hands of republicans aud will
them will do the very test he can
for statehood. Hither McGuire or
Mathews would work night and
day as long as there was any show
to win for it will be a big feather
in the cap of any man who is dele-
gate to congress when the question
of statehood is finally settled by
congress. He will be in line for
the United States senate, one of
the very greatest political honors,
and this selfish motive when mixed
with certaiu degrees of patriotic
motives would inspire auy man to
do his utmost. The proposition
for the voter to think of is which
man of the two named will l>e able
to exert the most power and influ-
ence toward bringing about the de-
sired end. In the first place if
there was no politics in it Mathews
would be no match for McGuire iu
a debate before an unprejudiced
ments that many i
knew to be false,

ker >a>s that the uext U.S. senate
will remain republican and the
Hamilton statehood bill is now
{tending iu the senate. Will the
election of Mathews secure its pas-
sage' We think not. for the reason
that Mr. Mathews is opposed to
the Hamilton bill. The democratic
party in the territory in its resolu-
tions denounces its provisions, and
the democratic party in the lower
house ot congress voted solidly
against it, in fact that party is on
record against the measure. Why
he would have to commence over
again He would have to intro-
duce a measure in the lower house
and that measure must conform to
the idea of a majority of his party;
then he must work among the re-
publicans in order to secure a suf-
ficient number of votes. Can he
do it? We think not. The elec-
tion ot Bird S. McGuire will be
construed as au endorsement of the
Hamilton bill by the U. S. senate,
and that means immediate state-
hood tor our people. consequently,
we can do nothing more than insist
upon all good citizens desiring im-
mediate statehood to refrain from
mixing in the political melee and
turning a deaf ear to the appeals
from partisan politicians, and ex-
ercising their prerogatives in a
calm, deliberate, judicial manner,
forgetting for the time being to
which political organizations they
belong, and exercising a judicial
prerogative long eliough to sup-
port Bird S. McGuire in his candi-
dacy for re-election.
