Kansas City, June 29 —Bird S. McGuire
delegate from Oklahoma to congreaa, -ir-
rived in Kansas City yesterday on hla
t. defends the action of tha
ten Kansas and Missouri congressmen
who vote with the house organization
to reject the senate amendment to th«
statehood enabling act. Particularly does
he declare that Congressman E. C. EUI*
of Missouri, and Congressman Charles
Curtis of Kansas, "should be commended
to" their foresight and discretion Instead
of criticized."
Mr. McGuire thinks that Governor
Frants. of Oklahoma, will be "completely
vindicated" fro mthe charges which have
been preferred against him with Secre-
tary Hitchcock, with a view of removing
him from office.
"I, with everybody else, arn delighted
over the results of the fight, and we es-
pecially appreciate what Kansas City has
done for us. The Kansas City press and
the Kansas City business men have al-
waye been our friends," said Mr. Mc-
Guire at the Midland hotel.
The Only Way To Win
"l am porry to see that there was some
criticism of the members of congress
from Missouri and Kansas, on their
standing by the house organization. They
d.d exactly right, and any one on the
ground who desires to give them a square
deal, must say that they were right.
Any other coures by them would have en
dangered statehood legislation and pos-
sibly defeated It. There were very Im-
portant matters of legislation up for con-
siceratlon about which there waa a dif-
ference of opinion between the house and
s(nate leadrs, and when they voted with
the regulars i the house It was with an
absolute understanding that Oklahoma
and Indian Territory should be admitted,
regardless of New Mexico and Arizona
If necessary, and their voting with the
regulars had something to do with the
pledge of the leaders that we should have
statehood before the gavel Wl adjourn-
the session of congress. So they
should b^ commended for their foresight
and discretion.
"When the statehood bill passed the
senate," continued Mr. McGuire, "there
were forty-one amendments, a great

We have recently published a num-

To be frank," was the reply, "Ij don't

\ McGuire would nay nothing mote
concerning the matter, except to reiterate
belief that nothing will come of the

The talk of Oklahofnans who have been

district of the new state. This district
comprises the following counties; lxjgun
