ARE IN EARNEST.
The People Of wsansr Propose 60 Fight
For TowRsite LeaTslatIoR-An later
estIaG Letter on the Subject.

The people of Wagner are
interesting themselves in town
site legislation as will be seen
by the appended letter re-
ceived this morning by Clar-
ence B. Douglas from Hon.
Sam Powell, a prominent gem
tleman of that place. The letter
shows a commendable interest
in the proposed and much need
ed legislation. 1t is as follows:
WAGNER, I. T., Nov. II, 1896.
Hon. Clarence Douglas, Ardmore,
1T:
My Dear Friend-I would like
to know if your people are GO
ing to continue the townsite
fight. | think the best, shortest
and safest plan is to make a
strong effort to pass the Curtis
bill with the Flynn townsite
clause added. Our people here
are desperately in earnest and
are going to fight this time to
win. Douglas we must not fail.
What do you sayf fl could
do any good by going to your
town would do so. | am yours
truly, SAM POWELL.
In reference to the above Mr..
Douglas had this to say to the
ARDMOREITE man:
Mr.. Powell came To Washing
ton last winter a few days after
my arrival in December, and
remained until May. During
that time we were thrown to-
gether a great deal and | learn
ed to know and appreciate the
man as being without doubt the
strongest and most effective
worker who has ever represent
ed the interests of the white
man in the territory at the ma
tional capital. He is a thorough
business man, a banker and
intensely practical, and has the
most extended acquaintance in
the house and senate of any
member of the third house
whom / have met. With no
personal ambition politically,
and with no desire TO be elected
to any office whatever, having
only the one thought in his
mind and that one being town.
site legislation, he worried the
opponents to such a measure,
more than all other forces COM
bined. Mr.. Powell spent his
own money and time in the in
terest of this legislation, and is
willing to do so again, but it is
only fair that the interested
parties in this nation should CO.
operate with him and select
some one to assist him.
The members of the Dawes
Commission will indorse every
thing | say about Mr.. Pow
: ell's ability and acquaint-
ance, and / believe it would be
; eminently proper for our people
to invite him to visit our city
; and confer with him on a pro-
posed line of action.
Personally, / have no desire
to return to Washington as a
delegate, but other and more
capable persons could be found
who would make the sacrifices
; necessary and put in this winter
at the national capital on town
= site legislation.

There are three Democratic can
didates for Senator Blanchard's seat,
viz: Blanchard, Pricce and Black,
man. It is probable that the Popu.
lists and Republicans will each have
candidate, but it is reasonably Ger.
tain that a Democrat will be elected.
The indications for the re election Of
the present incumbent are good, but
Nj. Price may develop into a strong
opponent when the contest comes off.
It is to be hoped, both for the fair
name of the State and the good oil

be defeated, for his record is that ot

who thinks more of himself than ol
