We attended the G. A. R. Territo-
rial encampment at Enid last week
and was surprised at her paved streets,
electric lights, waterworks, street rail-
way, new court house, newly com-
pleted five-story buildings, fine school
houses, the Christian college in course
of erection, lots of new store buildings,
opera house, fine new hotel, etc., etc ,
and we are like the little boy, are in-
clined to say, "I call that going some.”
We found the people hospitable,
wide-awake rustlers, with an abiding
faith in the future of Enid and willing
to back their faith with their dollars,
though some reluctantly acknowledge
that Oklahoma City might become
quite a nice town if it were not so
close to Enid- Of course, we ac-
quiesced, but told them Enid was too
close to Capitol Hill to make a very
large city,—they laughed, but they
that laugh last laugh best. When
they got through we laughed, for
every one knows tnat Enid can't com-
pete with Capitol Hill, especially if
we should conclude to annex Okla-
homa City.
The country between Guthrie and
Enid looked very Dare on account of
the ravages of the green bugs, but the
farmers have plowed their wheat fields
and planted corn and cotton, with
prospects of a fair drop,| thus prov
ing that Oklahoma excels other states
from the fact that if one crop fails,
we can plant the second or even third
crop with good results.
The encampment was all that could
be desired and a most enjoyable
time was had socially. The fighting
parson of Kansas, Rev. Kelly, gave
us a rousing speech and was followad
by Pat Connor in a redhot speech, and
the way he cooked Oklahoma’s con-
stitution, in its present form, was g
caution. He simply twisted it up,
ran it down a rat hole and drove a
peg in on top of it, and the way he
talked we are almost inclined to think
that he is a republican. Other noted
speakers delivered addresses, all of
which were well received.
Anderson’s drum corps and Hyde’s
G. A. R orchestra assisted in furnish-
ing "old time” music for the "vets.”

This is naturally the dull season of
the year and the continued wet weath-
er helps add to the dullness, but as
soon as the weather will permit the
pounding of hammers will be heard
all over the Hill, as there are dozens
of residences under contract, and bills
for lumber are piling up on the files
of the Leeper lumber yard.
