OKLAHOMA'S FIGHT
FOR STATEHOOD
1t Is Complicated by the Question Of
Statehood for the Indian
Territory.
Two OPPOSING INTERESTS
The Politicians Are In Favor of Single
Statehood for Oklahoma While Business
Men Want Statehood with Indian
Territory as One State.

Muskegee, 1. T., Nov. 14.-Single
statehood for Oklahoma and Indian
Territory will be brought to a definite
issue at convention here this after
noon. Three hundred delegates from
each territory have come to fight out
the issue. Politicians as rule, it is
conceded favor separate statehood.
This view is opposed by businessmen,
who want all avenues of trade and in
dustry opened without restriction and
who profess to believe this end could
not be secured in making two states of
the territories. Among the first dele
gates to arrive, the current of feeling
seemed strongly for single statehood
for Oklahoma without delay; Indian
Territory to be considered later
