Oklahoma has most excellent chance
now TO strike for statehood and get it.

The feeling among the volunteers al

One of the volunteers at Fort Reno,
who is a barber, made two dollars cutting
hair last Sunday afternoon.
Postmaster Mccoy. of the Guthrie post
offcie, has let out Victor Sampsel, clerk.

There is absolutely no way to prevent
a convention from nominating you if it in
sists. Dennis Flynn and Blaine have both
proved that.
1t is strange but the Ell Reno conven-
ton did not denounce Ned Sisslon for
failure TO capture that deadly outlaw,
Bill Scribbins.
Dennis Flynn reckons the nomination at
Ell Reno as the proudest moment of his
life Next to the moment he got free
homes through the house.
If he can be elected there is no gain
saying that Dennis Flynn will be thous-
and times more valuable to Oklahoma as
delegate than as governor.
The Ell Reno convention was made up Of
men who knew an injustice had been done
an honest. sincere, worthy man and they
were going TO right ii.
Private Williams. of the Indian terri

a woman at a dance hah.
Frank Fillmore, Of Arapahoe, calls Gov
ernor Barnes IAN Arkansaw accidency."
Barnes was a citizen of Oklahoma years
before he became governor.
Frank Greer is having a hard time be-
ing neutral. In the Guthrie Capital two
weeks ago 1t was Barnes and Flynn"
Now it is FLYNN and Barnes"
The Oklahoma City Oklahoman says
that II Indiananola wants to so into the
union with Oklahoma as a state, Indiana
nola will have TO do the asking.
CARRIER beat Senator Ravens for the
Garfield county delegation. That Is what
Havens gets for neglecting politics to
learn that bull calf to eat grass.
If the Republicans of Oklahoma will
range themselves together and have their
photographs taken the picture will be
worth coolies of money in twenty years.
The Republicans of the territory are his
tory-makers.
The Hardesty Herald says that there
were many cases of injustice during the
old-time regulator tule" in No Mans
Land. 1t says that when a regulator"
wanted a common settlers claim he got
it as a rule.
To Dennis Flynn most of the people
of Oklahoma will always be truly CRATE
full for his work for free homes. Flynn
was true and honest in his free homes
efforts and it is pleasant to see most Of
the settlers give him credit.

# fact, Dennis was, as the Journal per-
,onaly knows, in dead earnest. He has
,een there, and knows what it means. and
le has a head level enough to know that
I costs more than 1t comes to. But he
vii be elected all right this year, and
lie will probably add another star to the
lag before he comes back from Washing
