TO WASHINGTON.
Delegation Of Business Men
Gone to Boost Single
Statehood

dains the following:
A party Of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory business men passed
Through St. Louis yesterday en-

members will make tight for the
admission of the two territories as
d single state. The delegation ar
rived over the Frisco and spent
the day at the Planters hotel, and
left last night for Washington,
where the travellers will remain
until something Is done either for
or against the single statehood
proposition.
1--WE represent the commercial
and business interests OF the two
territories, said Mr.. b. B. Blak-
eney, an attorney Of Shawnee. Ok
lahoma. 1--WE are going to Wash
ington 10 try to prove TO Congress
the necessity and benefit Of admit
ting both Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as one state. The inter-
ests @of these two territories are
similar to each other. They have
many interests in common. II is
unnecessary. and we believe un-
reasonable, to make two states out
Of the Indian and Oklahoma terri
tories. No politics is found in our
delegation; we will 6ght for single
statehood on the ground that II
would be best for the commercial
interests OF the two 'cmmunities.
We think that statehood 70 certain

gress, in one form or another, and
we desire to be admitted under the
best possible plan. President

work that appears ahead for us TO
accomplish"
