he was playing false with this part Of
the territory, and Perry in particular
It was our desire to let the matter
pass, because we had thought that he
would not have the temerity to again
be a candidate for congress. But since
some over jealous and ne doubt well
meaning, though badly misguide, Re
publican politicians and newspapers
seem to desire to force Flynn upon the
party for another nomination and pos
sible election. and it appears that he
Is not adverse to being forced, here
is the end of our silence. Mr.. Flynn's
course upon many occasions in the
past has been open to criticism, and
mis- good offices for oklahoma have
been so literally punctured with sell
fishness and mercenary acts well
known and like the trash and tail end
OF a farmers junk at a public sale too
numerous to mention. The free homes
accident and Republican machine sent
Flynn to congress this time. The peo-
pie want no more Of him. If they
ever owed him anything on account OF
getting free homes, which is extreme
IL doubtful as he did no more than his
duty or any other man could have
done in the same position, that debt
is wiped out entirely. The principal
grievance which the people Of Perry
and the entire eastern end Of the strip
nave at this time IS the removal of
the land Office Flynn may try to ex-
plain that he had nothing to do with
the removal. but the facts are too well
known and understood to permit of
dispute or explanation. Selhshness
and revenge are the only excuses
Flynn has to offer the very people to
whom he owes his last election. If
this county and Garfield had not stood
by him at the polls he would have
been defeated, as the vote will show.
Now. to show his appreciation, Mr..
Flynn has caused the land office to be
removed because he had a personal
spite to vent upon Judge Scott, the
receiver. Il was the easiest way. He
had sworn in public upon several oc
casions to be revenged upon Mr..
Scott, because Scott had not lnuckled
to him and his dictation AS he has
ridded himself of Mr. Scott, so should
the Republican party throw Flynn

party loes not need him, hor yet his

that as the land Office matter stands

pie are mRde to suffer inconvenience

but little, petty personal fight on one

is nothing OF personal nature on the
part of the Republican. On the con.

of our people and put their expressed
opinions on thia subject in the mildest
possible language commensurate with
truth telling.

Some Republican papers of the ter
ritory are claiming that politics have
delayed the chances for statehood.
Yes; the kind of politics represented
by Mr.. Dennis T. Flynn, whose sole
objective point is political advance
ment and whose effort Is loaded 20 the
guards with buncomb Of the most de
tonating variety. Politics is delaying
statehood just like it delayed free
homes-long enough to make several
campaigns on.

A ROAST FOR DENNIS.

Hon. D. T Flynn arrived in Okla
homa from Washington Sunday. If
he came home at this time to fix his
fences for denomination he would do
well to devote much time to Perry aud
Noble county. There are so many
gaps here that those people who have
been his supporters have either fed
to the wilderness about Guthrie or
shamefully thrown him over. The Re

Flynn. even the extent of keeping
silent when we were satisfied that

PROPOSED TERRITORY
or JEFFERSON


BY Unanimous vote the house com
mittee on territories has decided to
recommend the organization Of the
territory OF JEFFERSON, now Indian ter
ritory. The name selected could not
be improved. It would honor a states
man whose national achievements de.
serve to be commemorated In the list
Of states and also give his name to a
part OF the Louisiana purchase, a most
fellcitous idea. Indian territory needs
the attention and speedy action of
congress. It's development has been
su. rounded with many peculiar diff
.nculties due to it's exceptional status
under old tribal treaties. Ia the course
iof time these conditions have become
a burden and hindrance to all the in
lhabitants OF the territory regardless
OF see lines. For one thing, public
education is paralyzed and when a
great number OF children IN an Ameri-
can community are growing up with
out public schools the case is simply
intolerable.
Sensible members or the various
tribes in Indian territory want their
children to be educated and also know
that the present confused and INSULT
cient government is hurtful to all its
citizens alike Provision is made in
the bill approved by the house com
mittee to adjust. in a spirit Of fairness,
the questions upon which treaty issues
have a proper bearing Details ought
Ito be arranged in a conciliatory man

from the present deadlock and create

emit was much pleased with the witty and
logical manner Of Mr.. Burkett, and 1t is
thought that the republican cause was
greatly strengthened in this vicinity by his
speech. His manner Of taking of the
various paramount issues Of the democratic
party was most amusing. He explained
the trust bugaboo. and while admitting
that trusts had grown under republican
rule, showed that everything else had
grown also, and that under democratic
rule nothing ever prospered.
