tion with The banking busines OF
this town. II seems that Mr..
English and bis friends, including
George Paschal, president, START
ed ont last spring 10 orgenize the
First National bank Of Fort Slll.
About that time Dennis Flynn,
then in Washington. the name of
the town having been changed
from Fort sill to Lawton, secured
for himself and friends The desIg
nation Of the First National bank
OF Lawton. Mr.. English and his
associates organized the Citizens
National bank of Lawton. Mr..
English then came over TO Law
ton and secured the contract TO
build the land Office building for
the government, which he was to
lease to the government. Having
completed that building Saturday,
be Immediately commenced the
construction Of a building on one
OF the land Office lots adjoining
the land Office fer his bank, and
announced that be would be ready
for business Tuesday morning.
He hoped BY his display Of nerve
and audacity to Outwit Fly M and
his associates. Il is quite proba-
bile that Mr.. English will be
obliged to move bis building, as
he had no right to construct il
prior TO bis purchase Of lot.

As to Statehood.

South McAlester, /. T., Aug Z.
in q recent interview Congress
man j. w. Miller, Of Kansas,
said in reference 10 statehood for
Oklahoma and Indian Territory.
1T is my opinion that another
presidential election will have to
be held before the committee on
this question would at least look
with favor upon a bill to make it
single or double state Of
course, you realize there viii be
plenty Of bills introduced for new
western states, and there will be
little consideration shown them.
While | am a western man and
would like the west 70 Get as many
states as possible, ! frankly admit
that the situation is doubtful But
sometimes sentiment changes, for
when the legislation Of the United
States attempted TO make the Da-
kotas one state there was q great
kick and they succeeded in getting
double statehood. OF course cir
cumstances were different and they
we're 50 they could afford TO risk
two states. Indian Territory has
been a very yexing problem to the
United States for vears and It Will
take some time to settle all matters
down there, but | am confident
that when this is done it, along
with Oklahoma, win become one
state, and not before. II is rich
country and there is a great future
before it, and congress is looking
more kindly than in former years,
and needed legislation will come
more speedily than in the past +.
