votes in the convention is 9os. Neces-
sary to a choice, SOC. There are four
states that have already instructed for
him. These are Pennsylvania, 81;
Nebraska. l6; Rhode Island, s; Massa-
chusetts, 30; total, lis. Other states,
as their conventions are held will fall
into line, and after putting every
doubtful vote in the opposite column,
Mr.. Bryan is sure of sl4 votes on the
hrst ballot, EOS votes more than is nee
essary, even II the two-thirds rule is
adhered TO. 1t is within the power Of
the national committee to change this
rule to a majority OF the convention
vote, but it is hardly likely that this
will be done.

County conventions are being held
all over the territory to elect delegates
to the territorial convention at FL
Reno, and as ninetecn-twontieths Of
the Democracy are for CO.. william
Jennings Bryan for president every
delegation to the III Reno convention
should be instructed for him. This is
not cesaary to insure the vote OF this
territory for Col. Bryan, for no power
under the heavens could take it awav
from him, but such instruction will, in
advance OF the Kansas City convention,
place the territorial Democracy in line
with the swelling tide of the national
Democratic sentiment all over the
country for Mr.. Bryan, the acknowl-
edged and accepted champion of the
people against imperialism and the
Republican fostered trusts. This will
insure instructions likewise 10y the El
Reno convention for Col. Bryan. The
Democracy OF every county should see
to this. The reaffirmance of the prin-
cip'es of the Chicago platform are vital
20 the success Of the national Democ-
raey, and with the matchless Bryan as
the leader and exponent OF these priu-
ciples MeKinleyism will be swept out
Of existence.

The day Of the shack is passed
Shaeks did valiant service in the early
days, and many monied Oklahomans
today owe their second start in life to
the boarded ramshRckle, which was
capable Of being built in less time than
was required TO stretch tent. But
the early days are part Of history.
Unsettled conditions are nowhere ap.
parent ia oklahoma. All the older
towns OF Oklahoma long since tossed
off the floating population" and
everything commercial, social and in
tellecl ual has become stable aud per-
mauent, oklahoma has advanced so
rapidly, and yet with such gentility
aud grace, that the hardships Of ten
years ago are but idle dreams, and the
Oklahomsn today is forced to seek a
lexicon 10 fnd the word "sconer."
Thus il Is seen that the shack es
pecially in the capital Of the territory,
Is as much out OF place today as the
wart on Dewey's nose. The shack has
served its purpose and We fervently
tender It our thanks. but we have
brick and stone buildings to run up
and must not linger too long with the
thanks.
