This is the way the Democratic conven-
ton in Payne county tackled the free
homes matter after four or five at
tempts. II is a poor shot. The plank in
the platform reads: we congratulate
the Republican party in at last fulfilling
its long delayed promises of free homes
to the weary and waiting settlers of this
territory. But we denounce the dema-
gogic chicanery of the Republican dele
gate to congress from this territory who
for years has held the club of free
homes over the heads of voters with
which to force them TO keep him in Of
flee" Before the campaign is a month
old the Democrats will wish they had
left that out OF their platform.
Oklahoma City Times-Journal: The
race meeting that was held at Kramer's
Park last week, ending Saturday In the
free races that We're given by the book
les, was a loser in every sense of the
term. Mr.. Kramer is personally out sew
eral hundred dollars and the city has
seen the last race meeting that will ever
be held under his management on his
track. The advertising of the meeting
was extensive and the attendance for so
important series of races WIS much
below the crowds that attend the Iittle
pumpkin shows in the small villages
throughout the country The total re-
ceipts of the entire meeting were not
as large as they were at Perry in one
day. The racing here was the finest
that has ever been given in Oklahoma
and no better is seen anywhere at the
purses that were offered, and there is
no reason that can be given for the nom
attendance at the meeting unless il was
due to the unsavory character of the in
habitants who live around the park
gates.
