POLITICAL
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Farmers Should Remember
Cleveland Adminis*
tratiin Hard Timts
Arnett, Okla , May 19.—“W<
read the statistics of 1895 anc
remember the finauical con
ditious of our country dur.
ing the administration of Mr.
Cleveland and democracy,
and compare them with, th*
presest financial conditions
and we wonder why there arc
any democrats today”, says
the Arnett Leader editorial If
in its last week’s issue. “WT
wonder why any sane mar
would want to live unuei
democratic rules and ex peri
ence those conditions again.
“During the year of 1895.
the articles of living wore 3;
percent lower than they art
today. In the year of 1895
the price of labor was 20(
per cent cheaper than it h
today. In the year of 1895,
three-fourths of the laborer*
of the United States were ou'
of emplopment, and today em-
ployment is seeking laborer.-
all over our land”.
“In the year of 1895, tin
prices of farm products wer
150 per cent cheaper that
they are today. With thes*
facts staring you in the face
Mr. Farmer, Mr. Laborer,
we wonder how you can con
scieutiously vote the demo
crat ticket this year, or am
other year and thus help t
dicertthe properous codiMon*
of today back to the f palling
conditions that existed in
those days and which isreas
onable to believe will exis'
again under a democratic
administration”

SHIELDS’ ADDITION.
Mr. H. H. Scott has completed bis
new house on 29th street and has moved
into it.
Miss

Little Miss Lola Mitchell has .just re .
covered from an attack of the measles,
her brother Evans is enjoying them now.
Mrs. Albert Neel is visitingin Hailey- SllclclcS of
ville Oklahoma.
It grows more apparent every
day that the success uf the repub-
lican party depends largely upon
the public feeling toward the
present congress. The measures
before those bodies do not affect
thematterso much us does the
strife between the republicans
and insurgents.
This bitter strife there in con-
gress has produced factional feel-
ing hero at home. It is very
bitter in seme localities,
The second district iu Oklahoma
has shown more disposition from
the start to split up than has any
other part of tlie state.
At the committee meeting at
Guthrie when the vote was count*
ed on the endorsement of the con-
gressmen the negative votes ware
all recorded from this district.
Therefore it seams more patent
that a man should be nominated
in this district who has not been
scarred and scratched up by the
doins going ouin congress.
We do not say that there are
any bettor republicans than Dick
T. Morgan. \\ e do say that soma
have more back bone than he
seems to have. Because of this
seeming discrepancy there are
many republicans who are radical
one way or the other who have
iheir notions very strongly fixed
at this timetovote against him
at the polls,
Those votes would he in line
for a new man and would not re-
yOU qUire winning back as they will
require if Morgan soould bo re-
nominated.
Miss Ivy Williams entertained the Al-
pha and Omega class, cf the Christian
