items from Saturday's Democrat:
“The people of El Keno may not
be able to jar the gamblers and the
saloons loose front Colonel I.ineoln,
by reason of the alleged threat that
a district judge will take a hand
in the matter hut by General
Jackson’s God they can jar them
loose from El Keuo if they fry.”
"It is reported that the saloon
keepers of El Reno met Judge
Irwin in consultation last Sunday.

to take any advantage of the same
