BRYAN AND WATSON.
Tails 10 the Result Of a Weeks work
BY the PopGIIstn csnven-
tIon al SO. LouIs.

The ARDMoREITE bulletins
continued to arrive from the
political storm center at st.
Louis, telling of the progress
being made by the twin conven-
tions i'm that city and when at
> a. m. yesterday the special
announcing the nomination of
Tom Watson of where are we
at" fame arrived, there was
considerable surprise and the
one question seemed to be
who will furnish the head for
such a tall" All day long the
bulletins were received telling
of the battle going on and the
action of the various leaders
and at , p. I'M. it was apparent
that i'm the face of his refusal TO
accept a nomination unless Mr..
Mr.. Sewell was also nominated,
the first place on the ticket
would 90 to the statesman from
Nebraska who is already the
standard bearer of the demo-
cratic party. At $3.50 the bulle-
tins telling of Weaver's nomi-
mating speech and the rush to
second Bryan's nomination by
the various states were received
and twenty minutes later the
simple statement: Bryan
nominated" was sent to this
Office by the operator and the
ticket was made after weeks
battle between the middle of the
road element and Bryan's sup
porterS.
In the language of the Vice
Presidential nominee there are
a great many people who just
now would like To know where
they "are ut" and if complica-
tons like this continue it will
take a full blown politician I'd
figure out a ticket when the
time comes to vote.

From parties returning from
Tishomingo we learn that the
Dawes commission are very
much disgusted at the treatment
they are receiving from the In
dians, and no reasonable man
can doubt that the Indifferent
attitude of the various tribes
will materially hasten the disso-
luton of their governments.
The Dawes commission is COM
posed of high minded gentlemen
specially selected by their indi-
vidIIal fitness as representatives
of the greatest nation on earth,
and the Indians make a serious
mistake in treating them in this
manner.

On the last day of August and
the first day of September the
people of Purcell and the terri
tory generally will meet in that
city and celebrate the ''juris-
diction law" which goes into
effect on September /. There
are several other places imitat-
ing the example of Purcell,
which have decided to also have
a blow out and while we do not
question their right to 'whoop
it up" on that date, we believe
Purcell should be given the
right of way and as the origina-
tor of the idea become the nerve
center of all who feel like cele-
brating.

Mr.. l.. Peyton. who has jnst
returned from a trip in Kansas
and Missouri. says that the
growth of the silver sentiment
among all class of people
astonished him. He says that
in Kansas City and on the
trains he met men from north
ern and eastern states and all
repeated the same story. that
with the exception of bankers
and other money lenders, the
people were talking free silver
and that if there was no reac-
ton of sentiment there would
be a landslide to Bryan and
Sewall.
Oats are selling at seven cents
in Nebraska. ten to fifteen in
Kansas. The prospect is good
for an enormous corn crop in
Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska
and it is expected that in those
states it will sell at from eight
TO twelve and half cents per
bushel.
Gold is at a premium In Kan
sas City aud the bankers there
refuse TO pay out any of the
precious metal.
The cattle and hog shippers
on the line of the Santa Fe in
the Chickasaw country will be
glad to learn that the railroad
has restored the old ear load
rate and will not again charge
by weight.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1896-07-26

WE hope the local company
which has secured from the
Chickasaw nation the franchise
for waterworks, electric lights
and street car lines, will not
take advantage of their really
advantageous position and by
indifference or through mercen-
airy motives, render it impracti-
cable for a business man to
come in here and put in these
much needed improvements.

vote On DeeaH.

ST. LOUIS, July 24.-Arkan-
sas started off with twenty-five
votes for Watson.
Patterson of Colorado cast the
forty-five votes of his state for
Sewall amid a round of applause
from the Bryan men. Some
one jumped up and challenged
the vote, claiming that he want
ed his vote recorded for Wat
son. Patterson denounced him
rs an interloper.
Michigan gave her thirty votes
TO Watson.
Kansas gave Sewall eighty
two of her ninety-five votes.
Louisiana gave the bulk Of her
vote to Watson.
Maryland divided her vote
between Sewall and Watson. 1t
looked as if Watson might be
nominated on the first ballot
until North Carolina cast her
ninety-five votes for Skinner.
Tennessee for Mimms and Texas
for Burkett.
This split up the large delega-
tions.
Later the roll call was com
pleted. Texas changed her vote
to Watson and there were other
changes in favor of the Georgia
man.
Col. Burkett of Mississippi went
on the stand and withdrew his
name.
just then the electric light went
ont and men shouted out in the
inkv darkness; some sang and q
few cursed. The band struck NJ
a lively air. A few candles were
brought into the press tables and
the delegates crowded about them
Several suggested that it was an
iii omen. but a chorus of voices
shouted shat it was a put mp job
Then Mimms withdrew in Wat.
sons favor. The Georgian al
ready had votes enough to nomin-
ate, but the vote of Tennessee was
finally transferred TO his column
Some one made a motion to max,
1.-THE nomination unanimous aud i
was carried with a whoop.
Immediately the middle-of-the.
road men grasped the banners ans
started a demonstration. Som,
one called attention to the fact tha
the nomination Of Watson was an
nounced at exactly sixteen min
utes to l o'clock. This tickle,
them and they yelled "16 to L."
A few minutes later the light
were again turned on and afte
quiet was restored Congressman
How --rd of Alabama moved an ad
journment until 9 o'clock to-mor
row morning and the motion wa
carried.

INDIAN COURTESY.

In this enlightened age when
differences exist between great
nations, commissions are ap-I
pointed by the executive heads
of the respective governments,
composed of men selected on
account of their especial fitness
for the duties which they will
be called upon to discharge.
These commissioners are indi-
vidually and collectively recog-
nized as the representatives Of
their nations and all rules and
laws of diplomatic intercourse
and action demand that they
shall receive that courteous
treatment recognized by all the
civilized countries of the world
as due to their country. No
great nation would for a moment
submit to an indignity offered
its accredited representatives,
and any intended discourtesy
or insult to them would be fol-
lowed Immediately by the sever
ance of all diplomatic relations
and possible a declaration of
war or an imperative demand
for a public apology.
Had the Venezuelan commits
sion recently appointed by
President Cleveland to confer
with a like commission from
England on the boundary ques-
ton in Venezuela been subjected
to the indignity, the abuse and
the studied Indifference which
the Dawes commission (created
by the same pOwer) has receiv-
ed at the hands of the five so
called civilized tribes, the scream
of the American eagle would
have been heard frNm the At
lantic to the Pacific, and from
the lakes to the Gulf and an
immediate apology not forth
coming, every British vessel in
the American seas would have
been blow out of the water and
Canada would now have been a
part of the United States.
AS the accredited delegates of
the United States, representing
more than 65,OOO,0O0 people,
this commission, headed by the
venerable statesman from Mas
sachusetts, has a right to expect
considerate treatment at the
hands of the officials of the
| five tribes, and should the In
dams continue in the policy
| heretofore pursued in their in
| tercourse with this commission,
the government at Washing.
ton should at the earliest pos
sible day resent the insult by
legislating them out of existence
as nations without the OppOr.

. them of being important factors
in the coming changes in the
, Indian Territory.

TO say that the Purcell Register

that touches that particular
chip. This is as it should be
and the support of that paper

Washington, July 23.-About
a week ago it was predicted in
these dispatches-the predic-
ton based ON information-that
Secretary of the Interior Smith
held himself in readiness to
surrender his portfolio If the
president objected TO his sup
porting Bryan and Sewall. This
evening the Washington Star
gives prominence to this item:
1T is understood that Secre-
tary Hoke Smith has informed
several intimate friends in the
South of his purpose to support
Bryan and Sewall, and that if
the president and his cabinet
bolt the Chicago ticket either
for Mckinley or for a sound
money Democratic ticket, he
(Smith) will retire from the
cabinet without further eere-
mony."
