DEMOCRATS ON rAE WATCH.
Organize at Lawton to Keep RepubIi'
cans From Taking Everything.

Lawton, okla, Sept. 5.-The Demo
Gratis Of Lawton have perfected an or
gan!zation for the protection of their
rights in the FIRST municipal election.
Judge c. c. Nolan, formerly Of st.
Louis. is president; J. w. Howard,
formerly Of Kohoka, Clay county, Mo,
vice president. and A. G. Campbell
formerly of El Reno. secretary and
treasurer. The organization is known
as the Lawton Democratic club.
Judge Nolan has appointed com
mittee Of attorneys to ascertain what
effect the Oklahoma statute, which
restricts the voting franchise to men
who have resided in the territory six
months. will have on settler in the
new country. The Republicans have
declared that they will insist upon a
strict construction of the law. This
would shut out lot of Texas, Arkan-
sas and Missouri Democrats, and 1t
might enable the Republicans to car
ry the city. The Democratic lawyers
believe that the courts will hold that
the Oklahoma election statute can not
be made applicable to elections in the
new country. Their opinion is that
settlers have the same rights as did
the original settlers in Oklahoma. II
the Democrats be not disfranchised
they will control the first city govern
ment, for they are in the majority.
Dr. A. B. Conley, formerly Of De
catur. Tex, is candidate for the
Democratic nomination for mayor
Judge Nolan also has boom for
mayor.
The Republicans have held several
caucuses lately and decided to ask the
governor to call a special election for

MAY DELAY ELECTIONS
IN NEW COUNTRY,
To Give All the Citizens an Equal
Chance.

The race for political supremacy in
the towns in the new country is to be-
gin with an even start and every citi-
zen will be permitted to enter. This
is the opinion of a number of per
sons from Lawton and Anadarko who
have discussed with Governor Jenk-
ms the advisability of holding an cleo
tion as soon as possible in those
towns seeking to become cities of the
first class. In Oklahoma a residence
Of six months is required before a per
son can vote. To hold an election at
once in towns in the new country
would disfranchise a large number of
persons who have come from other
states and located in the new country.
Such an election would give every ad-
vantage TO Oklahomans who had gone
to the new country from other coun-
ties, and deprive newcomers from par
ticipating in the conduct of municipal
affairs. This would cause great dis
satisfaction, whatever the political re-
suits might be.
Proclamatlons for elections in cities
or the first class are issued by the
governor. Governor jenkins is said
to have expressed the opinion that the
best thing to do under the circum-
stances is to delay all elections until
the expiration of che six months be-
ginning August 6, 1901, which would
give every person who located in the
new towns August the right to vote.
He thought the government of the
towns could be conducted safely dur
ing the interval by county and town
ship officers, and that the delay of the
election for few months would not
work any great hardships upon the
people.

In case 367 Of II. II. Bockflnger VS..
the Guthrie townsite, the plaintiff ask
ed an appeal TO the United States SUI
preme court.
In the case of Queenan VS.. the Ter
ritory, the principal contention for a
reversal of the death verdict was up
on the qualification of the jury and
the manner in which it was found. II
was claimed that one of the jurors who
was selected to try the case did not
give truthful answers to questions
touching upon his qualifications as a
juror and that by reason of his being
allowed to serve on the jury after his
disqualification became known Queen
an was not given the trial by twelve
Of his peers that the constitution OF
the United States and the organic act
guarantee. There we're several other
questions raised but this was the
principal one.
The opinion was rendered by JUS
tice Hainer, all the justices concurring
except Burwell, the trial judge.
Queenan was convicted in Oklaho
ma county for the murder of his wife
at Oklahoma City, in January, 1900
His defense was insanity.

Card From M. Collar.

Editor Leader: | take the liberty
to ask you why are things in your
city as they are? There is no use ask
ing Guthrie Shops News notes fake,
to write articles benehtting Guthrie,
It has been tried and found wanting.
You will remember the Brown road
fake. the Guthrie and Shawnee rail
road fake, either of the two and both
roads, were and are needed in Guthrie.
They could have been here, but no,
Guthrie can get nothing. no compe-
tition in railroads.
What the few opponents to Guthrie
want is that those who want good
coal must pay for long hauls as dis
tance from Canyon City, Col. Guthrie
Shops News Notes says Shawnee Is
getting a road from Red Fork, this
IS the road Guthrie wanted long ago.
will only ask this mildly, why is 1t
that the Capital City can have no

TROUBLE BETWEEN
FRANCE AND TURKEY
All diplomatic Relations Have
Been Severed.


Regarding the Purchase of Quays and
the Settlement of Disputed French
Claims-So Says Nj. Constans, That
Country's Ambassador.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 81. - The
French ambassador, NJ. Constans, has
notified the sultan's first secretary that
all diplomatic relations between France
and Turkey are broken off, and that the
ambassador has informed his govern
ment to this effect.
M. Constans communicated direct
with the sultan, because the latest me-
gotiations were transacted with the sui
tan personally.
The ambassador justifes his action
on the ground that the sultan broke his
direct, personal promise, given to M.
Constans at an audience in the Yildlz
palace Thursday, regarding the pur.
chase of the Quays and the settlement
Of the disputed French claims.
The foreign minister also gave formal
assurances that the agreement would be
carried out, so, in view of this double
breach of faith, M. Constans holds that
it is impossible for France to continue
diplomatic relations with Turkey.

IOWA DEMOCRATS MEET.
Party Leaders Open State Convention
at Des MOines.

DEs MONIES, Aug. 21.-When the
Democratic state convention opened here
this forenoon the man to head the ticket
was just as much a mystery as ever.
The absolute withdrawal of Cato Sells
from the field left half dozen men of
local strength in the race, none of whom
showed particularly satisfactory to the
leaders. Delegates called upon Cato
Sells this morning at his hotel, request
ing that he reconsider his refusal to ac-
cept the nomination, but Mr.. Sells de-
clared that he would not.
To all appearances the question of re-.
affirming the Kansas City platform in
the resolutions will probably be fought
out on the floor of the convention.
The silver men, led by J. s. Murphy,
demand that the convention in specific
terms approve the silver plank of the
Kansas Oity platform, while the gold
men maintain that the resolution Of re-
affirmation should read as follows:
Resolved, That we indorse the time
honorbd principles of the Democratic
party and that no other mention be
made of previous platforms.
