The above was part Of an exciting

while the station agent held the other.
Between them vas cooling Q

strong, but Idiutic. Resolutions Passed,
Opposing Statehood and Asking to be
Taken Under the Wing of Either
Kansas. Colorado or Texas.

Way of in the extreme western part
of Oklahoma is located a county called
Beaver. The people of this county are
riding a high horse; in fact are on
their ears. They oppose statehood for
oklahoma and want to be tackled to
the states on which the county bor-
dcrs
Governor Renfrow yesterday re-
cciyed a circular letter from Beaver,
Ok, which had been prepared at a
meeting held in Beaver few days
since. OF this meeting j. X. Sencenich
was made chairman and +. C. Tracy
secretary.
Considerable "resoluting' was done
in which the Beaverites try to show
that statehood now is suicidal; that
oklahoma is the dumping ground for
the states, and that congress should
not consider statehood at this time.
Two of the sections read as follows:
Resolved. that If the people of Beaver
county desire change OI political cOndi-
tiOn. there is little IN that consideration
which has Heretofore been given Beaver
county by eastern Oklahoma which
should cause desire for continued cX-
/ isting relation, much less a closer atiil liza
, zion; therefore Ia the judgment of this
meeting, statehood for Beaver county can
/ best be secured by application for annex
alton to one of the states of Kansas, Col
| oradO or Texas, on consent of the con-
grcSS of the United States; and TO test
the practicability Of which be it again
/ Resolved. that the chairman be and
hereby is authorized and Instructed Il
/ appoint "a committee to confer with tho
T governors of those states. and on receipt
, of favorable reply from either, to call d
mass convention of citizens Of the county
/ 10 consider the subject and act in relation
. thereto.
The Beaver county people are rather
hasty, but if they desire a change it is
not probable that any lusty kicks will
