THURSDAY, MAR. 19. 1908
We denounce the unpatriotic
action of Governor C. N.Haskell in
refusing the national flag presented
by the ladies of the Grand Army of
the republic to float over the state
house. Such refusal was an insult
to thise noble women and misrepre-
sentation of the people of Oklahoma
who stand for the flag and its
brave defenders and for all itrepre
sents as the symbol of the greatest
power on earth.
We condemn the democratic state
administration and the present dem-
ocratic legislature for the creation
of useless offices and for these ex-
travagances in the state govern-
ment burdening the people of the
state with extortionate and un-
bearable taxation.
The county is safe now, Andy has
returned.

Republican State Platform.
Be it resolved, that we, the re
publicans of Oklahoma, in state
convention assembled, re-arffim our
devotion to the cardinal principles
of our party which have unanswer-
ably proven to be conducive to
good government, national prosper-
ity, peace and happiness.
We most heartily endorse the
splendid and patriotic administra-
tion of President Roosevelt. The
rights of the common people during
his administration have been recog-
nized and sustained as never be-
fore in the history of our nation.
Logically, we believe the Honor-
able William H. Taft is the
man to follow in line of the great
Roosevelt as t.e candidate of the
republican party for the presidency
of the United States. We have in
him the ideal Amercian citizen,
broad gauge and fully equipped
with the knowledge of the great
projects of reform in government
now under way. In executive ex-
perience second to none in the na-
tion; with a practical Knowledge
of our government and all govern-
ments, of judicial temperament and
experience, we cordially endorse his
candidacy, not at the behest of par-
ticular individuals, thinking to reap
personal benefit, or that this endor-
sement is the effect of their party
work, but because we, represent-
ing the wishes of the rank and file of
our party in Oklahoma, would in-
form the nation at large of our
preference for this great office.
It is our firm conviction that
there could be no safer or more Ex-
perienced statesman to guide our
national destinies, and in further-
ance of these sentiments, we here-
by instruct our delegates, their al-
ternates or proxies, to the national
republican convention to cast their
votes for every proposition favor-
able to the nomination of William
H. Taft for president.
We endorse the splendid record
of Honorable Bird S. McGuire, the
republican representative for Okla-
homa in congress.
We stand in favor of the strict
enforcement of all the provisions of
our constitution and our statutory
laws so long as such provisions re-
main a part of the law of our state
and we oppose any evasion of such
constitutional provisions or statu-
tory laws through loose or unguard-
ed legislation open to abuse or con-
struction permitting the violation
of any such law or constitutional
provision.
While the constitution permits
the legislature to provide for the
sale of intoxicating liquor tnrough
a dispensary system, we are oppos-
ed to the state becoming a party to
any such traffic, thereby making
ourselves, our wives and children,
joint partners in the sale of liquor,
and our parperty in any way re-
sponsible for the maintenance of
such system.
In view of the fact that the dem-
ocratic party in this state openly
threatens to disfranchise the color-
ed voters of this state by the passage
of a "Grandfather law" we join
with the republicans of the state of
Ohio in their demand for the re-
duction of the representation in
congress and the electoral college,
in all states of this union where
white and colored citizens are dis-
franchised to the end that tne four-
teenth amendment to the constitu-
tion of the United States may be
indorsed according to its letter and
spirit.
The democrats seen) to be going
back to their old love—the tariff—
for an issue. That will make it easy
sledding for Taft.
There was a larg^" and appre-
c iative crowd out to hear Claude
Weaver's speech Monday night.
He is a good talker bat had rather
more to say against Congressman
Ferris than some thojght he should
have had.
Some of the republican Dolitici-
ans of Oklahoma were against in-
structing for Taft but when the
rank and file of the party was heard
from in the big convention at Okla-
homa City last Wednesday there
was no quibbling about it, the in-
structions went with a whoop and
the other fellows were not in the
shouting.

To the Ice Consumers of Maagwn:
We have decided to make our
coupon book system more effective
Since we are not able to deliver the
ice in person, thtre is a great deal
of confusion in having them charg-
ed, as our drivers do not know the
names, and consequently some
books are charged to the wrong
parties. They will be sold for cash
only, without exceptions. We
have ordered our drivers to leave
no books without having received
pay for same at the time, and to
leave no ice without receiving
either coupons or money at time of
delivery. This is not prompted
by financial loss, but merely to
save time, as it takes a man some
thirty days to do a sea sons collect-
ing.
You will note 011 back of book
that they are redeemable at the
First National Bank when not de-
tached from book, and book has
been properly countersigned, and
have instructed bank to take them
up as our check, all of which we
think a fair proposition. All you
have to do to get your money on
unredeemed coupons is to present
them at Bank. We will appreci-
ate your reporting any inattention
on the part of employees, as we
propose to make our service the
best.
Thanking you kindly for past
support, and trusting we may merit
a continuance of same. Yours
truly,
MANGUM ICE &

Hospital Boiled Egg.
An excellent way to boll an egg so
as to hare It soft and fluffy, suitable
for convalescents, Is to cook It eight
minutes. The water in the kettle
must be boiling. Turn out the gas on
range and carefuHy place egg—which
previously has been dipped In warm
water to remove chill, as sudden
change in temperature would crack It
—in the boiling water, and cover,
leaving upon the unlighted burner to
get the heat. At the end of eight
minutes take egg from shell, salt and
butter to taste, and you will have a
soft, ualatable, easily digested egg.
