General Call ISSUED for a Convention
at Chandler June FL.

Guthrie, o. T.. June 1s.-H. c. Notson.
secretary of the Union League Of lessees
Of school lands, has given notice that
there wiz be a general meeting Of the
school land lessees Of Lincoln county at
the court house in Chandler, Saturday.
June q, 1852. at / o'clock p. m, for the
purpose Of discussing all matters of mate
rial interest to the lessees and especially
those questions that affect our future well
fare. It is very much desired that there
be a general turnout of the lessees of the
county. At least. there should be an ef-
fort made TO have one or two present
from each section of school land in the
county. In view Of the fact that ques-
tens affecting the future of the school
land lessees very materially have been
sprung and are being advocated from in
fluential sources a united effort on the
part Of the lessees becomes necessary. At
this meeting the feasibility Of holding a
territorial convention viii be discussed.
While this call is made especially in the
interests OF the school land lessees of
Lincoln county, any lessees Of the terri
tory will receive a hearty welcome.

Told Charles Renfro PoSi-
lively That He Is Out.

After That He viii Take Part
in the Campaign.
STATEHOOD WILL PASS
Mr.. Flynn Considers Its
Chances Very Good.

Guthrie. o. T., June 1S.-''Mr. Flynn
viii not accept the nomination TO con-
gress," said c. r. Renfro. of this city.
who has just returned from Washington,
where he has been in the interest Of his
candidacy for the Guthrie pOstofice to
succeed w. VI. Mccoy. 1T is the un-
derstanding in Washington that he viii
not be a candidate for the nomination.
and one of the last things said by Mr..
Flynn before left the city was that he
could not take the nomination."
VIII Mr.. Flynn lie here fer the con-
vention?"
Just as soon as congress adjourns. Mr..
flynn and family viii start for Honolulu,
to be gone several weeks. After his re-
turn from there he will come to the ter
ritory and take part in the campaign. 1t
is his intention to work for the nominee
OF the Enid convention, from first to last,
regardless OF who the nominee will be-
He states that the matter must be settled
at Enid, and then he will come back to
work for the nominee Of that conven-
ton
What is the statehood situation?"
1T is Mr. Flynns impression that if
the statehood bill can be gotten out of
the committees hands that it viii pass
before adjournment. 1t is believed that
the last man has been brought over to
ths statehood side of the question, and
that the bill will come out and be made
q law When it does come out of the
committees hands. it will be a much
easier battle than the one in the com
mittee.
1T is believed that work will begin
on the public buildings for Guthrie and
Oklahoma City in about six months. The
impression prevails that Guthrie will get
ar additional 100000 at the next session
Of congress for the completion of the
building for the use of federal office
holders. The $4,000 building at Okla
homa City is for postoffice, and the
Washington officials consider that this
win be sufficient for that city for a num-
Der Of years. The treasury department
estimates that it will take sl50,O0o for the
Guthrie building before it is completed.
This viii give Guthrie a better building
than would have been the ease had the
first appropriation gone through"
Gir. Renfro was enthusiastic about his
trip, and had much to say of President
Roosevelt and his treatment when the
Oklahoma delegation called on him.

Watson, who, it was stated. was prepar-
ing to make an independent shipment,
and when asked with regard to the mat
ter, Mr. Watson said: Yes, il is a fact
that 1 will make a consignment of the
potatoes I have now on track here to
Kansas City tonight, as now see plainly
that what 1 predicted a month ago is
about TO take place. 1 said then that if
70 cars were found here at one time and
only buyers for so cars, what would the
association do?
That has occurred, and we have buy
ers here for about half the potatoes that
are offered, and they cui out what they
want at their own price and leave the bal
anee, and hence we are forced to con-
sign.
Il don't know how many will do so.
but I do know that quite a number of
the association membership have decided
to go it alone in shipping and selling their
crops
Later the reporter called at the Office
Of Mr.. A. E. Nelson. sales agent for the
association, who, on being asked as TO the
sudden stagnation of the local market,
said: There is a marked decline in
prices and have advices today that the
crop of Texas and Arkansas is now on
the market to the number of about l25
cars per day, and that fact alone is suf-
ficient cause for the decline, which may
be stated 20 be from 10 10 15 cents per
bushel.
The association is trying to get the
best price possible for the crop and will
continue to do so. but I must say that
the matter presents an unfavorable ap-
pearance Just now.
In view of this state of affairs we are
advising the farmers to stop digging for
few days until the present glutted con-
dition Of the northern markets is relieved,
when we hope for better prices, OF at
least no further decline
