INJUNCTION DISSOLVED.
An early election is now assu:-
ed. The supreme court banded
down a decision list Tuesday
that was in line with Democrat-
ic contentions and to the effect
that the courts have no jurisdic-
tion over the constitutional con-
vention. That county offeers are
a part of the state government
and must be ejected at the coin-
ing election. That the constitu-
tional convention has the right to
form new counties.
Democrats have proceeded on
the theory that all this would be
done and are now ready to prose-
cute a vigorous and winning
campaign. *
Republicans have been weak,
inactive, vacillating and are badly
divided as to whether they wi 1
figfit or support the constitutio: .
It is now up to them to do
something and do it quickly as
the election will probably be held
about the middle of September.
We interviewed several mem-
bers of the Republican county
• ticket Wednesday. Col. Rea
said that he had always been in
favor of an election and that the
decision suited him. L. C. Elliott
said he would immediately take
steps toward his re-election but
did not know whether a county
convention would be called or a
primary.
Chas. Buzzi, secretary of the
county committee still maintaines
that county officers should not
be elected and personally did
not think a county ticket should
not be nominated but did not
know what the party would do.
Judge Wagoner, Emery Fos-
ter, and Dan Norton hiked for
Guthrie Wednesday morning to
get advice from headquarters.
They all realize that the fellow
TULSA WORLD ^1 IVES WARNING
Under the caption, “A Word of
Warning to the Oklahoma Lead-
ers,” the Tulsa World, one 'fjspect
publican party have awakened
to this fact. The World has ex
hausted every effort to convince
in sympanthie with those who
would defeat statehood in order
to hold their jobs. Thousands
the state committee that the de-1 republicans have said private
featof the constitution spelled ! ly what the World has said pub-
the leading Republican journa's
of the new state, prints the fol-
lowing:
“The long threatened revolt
against the dictatorial and sui-
cidal policy of the state central
committee of the Republican
party of Oklahoma has come to
pass. For months such action
has been growing in strength,
and the inclination of the com-
mittee to take the power of gov-
ernment from the hands of the
people has aided in popularity of
the movement. The desire of
the people for home government,
everywhere apparent, should
have acted as a warning to the
politicians, and for self-protec-
tion, if for no higher motive, they
should have considered well the
demands of the rank and file No
association of men is greater
than its constituency, and the
political ruin to the party and
commercial ruin to the Indian
Territory, but against all reason,
the state committee was led by
Oklahoma ‘interest’ to declare
against the constitution. In the
face of the fact that an apparent
unamity of the state committee
desired at least delay, the World
has remained quiet on the sub-
ject of statedood, never, however
losing its enthusiasm in that re-

“Now that definite action has
been taken by men representa-

no longer under obligations, to
the state committee, and with
this issue serves notice on the
state committee, that in the
event its policy is not radically
changed, and unless it shows at
once, by clear and unmistakable
effort, a sincere indication of
quick work for statehood, the
World will say God speed to the
rump convention, and will devote
its influence, heart and soul to
the movement. And the World

Hitchcock-, June 23.—Thirty-
two leading citizens of this place
employed white cap methods to
reform Fred Dean, whome they
claim whips his wife and loafs
around a saoon while she makis

In the dead of night they took
Dean to a pond and gave him a

Hitchcock claim the ducking was
an outrage and threaten to pros-

The World has consistently fav

and lias unceasingly argued that
the only feasible path to immed-

TO PEOPLE ALONG R. F. 0. ROUTES
The mail carriers are ouf messengers, (liven them a letter addressed
to us telling us what you want and the carrier will bring the goods
back with him' right at your door. That is easier than a long cold
drive to town. Goods ordered this way can be returned it unused and
in good condition provided they are not satisfactory. „
You can save time by calling our phone number and telling us what
you want. The carrier will bring it out on his next trip. Hie phone
costs you nothing; the delivery costs you nothing. That is far better
than ordering from a mail order house in some distant city. On the
same kind and quality of goods, we will meet the price of any mail or-
».der house, but I won't sell you first quality goods for the price they
quote on second class stuff. Try ordering by mail or by phone of us
and see how satisfactory it is.
