The New IvTissouri U. S. Sen-
ator Says Hs Was Called
this When in Congress
STILL OUR FRIEND
And Oklahoma Will Have a Sen-
ator at Washington so Long as
Warner is in the Senate
At a recent reception to Indian
territory gentlemen given at Kan-
sas City the new U. S. Senator
from Missouri made a talk in
which he promised that lie would
be Oklahoma’s senator He said:
“During my term in congress I
fought with Congressman Spring-
er of Illinois for the interests of
Oklahoma and Indian territory.
It was at that time I earned and
received the title of ‘Oklahoma
Bill.’ The suggestion has been
made here that Oklahoma and
Indian territory have no senater
in Washington, When congress
convenes, whether in ordinary or
extraordinary session the people
of Oklahoma and Indian territory
will have at least one senator in
that body who will act in the in-
terests of that great and growing
country as long as I am in the
United States senate.
“I have much admiration for
the thrift and patriotism of the
people of Indim territory and
Oklahoma I see no justice in
trying to fasten that magnificent
empire on ihe coat tails of New
Mexico. I will do all that I can
to back you up in your fight for
statehood. I hope that in a year
hence we will be able to meet you
here again, not as representatives
of a territory, but of the magnifi
cent state of Oklahoma,”

SNYDER NOT SO BAD.
No town in western Oklahoma
has had a more substantial and
rapid growth during the past few
months than Snyder. Twenty-
seven months ago a bald
prairie, now a thrifty growing lit-
tle town of twelve hundred peo-
ple. But a few months ago only
a prospect, now a fact. Money,
energy and pluck have united in
making the town one of the very
best business points in this part
of Oklahoma. Common week
days find more farmers on the
1 streets purchasing farm supplies
than Saturday finds in nine out
of ten of other western Oklahoma
towns, and where the farmers
trade there the best towns in any
1 agricultural country are. Sny-
der is the favorite trading point
for the farmers covering an area
\ of more than ten miles in each
. direction and all who come here
| and locate in business find it a
1 good point.
I Business here is not over done
as in many places and there is
room for a few more good mer-
cantile houses as well as for mills
and other manufacturing enter-
prises. For mills or any manu-
factories of importance free sites
are offered and to merchants and
other tradesmen a good substan-
tial trade for the opening of their
places of business. The business;
is here and you only have to come
and reach out for it. Come and
help boom Snyder to a town of
5000 within the next two years.

many hundreds of dollars from
his peaches and plums this year.
