MEETING IS
POSTPONED
Oklahoma Day Club Will Gel
ebrate in May
SPEAKERS COULDN'T COME
Invitation Has Been Sent to
Congressman Hamilton.


E1 Reno O. T., April 20-The meeting
of the Oklahoma Anniversary Day Re-
publican club, which was to have been
held in FL Reno on April %. has been
postponed by the unanimous vote of the
local committees. There has been an
effort made to get representative party
workers in congress to address the club,
and in almost every case they have ex-
pressed regrets at the date, stating that
they would be pleased to come after the
adjournment of congress. AS the cam
paign will soon be opened it was thought
best to postpone the meeting until next
month to allow some of the members of
congress to be present if possible. An
invitation has been sent to Representative
Hamilton whi is chairman of the house
committee on territories, and who framed
the bill which is now pending in the
house. An invitation has also been ex-
tended to other senators and representa-
tives. Congressman Bird Mcguire will
also be in attendance as well as many
other prominent men from over the terri
tory who have been detained from at
tending this meeting if held on the 22nd
of this month

COMMENT IS
FAVORABLE
Politicians Agree Tnat Grimes
Is the Man.
IS PRACTICAL POLITICS
Several Are interviewed on
the Proposition.

Guthrie, o. T., April a1.-The discussion
of the proposal of William Grimes for
chairman of the Republican central COM
mittee in the Eagle this morning caused
good deal Of interest among Republican
leaders in this city today.
The general interest in the matter caus-
ed the correspondent of the Eagle to call
on some men who are recognized as the
strong friends of s. S. Mcclure to ascsc-
tain how they regarded the proposition
Governor Barnes was the first seen. He
said:
Yes, I have read the dispatch in the
Eagle and 1 have only this to say: That
it is d matter entirely with the central
committee and Mr. Mcclure, and for that
reason I would not like to make any sug-
gestions. L will say, however that l con-
slider Mr.. Grimes a splendid organizer,
and he would make splendid chairman
but there are other Republicans that
might do just as We'll"
J. W. McNeal: Il have read that dis
patch and l have just been thinking about
it. l would not attempt to dictate TO Mr.
Mcclure and the central committee what
they ought to DO but on the lire of prac-
ticdi pOllllCS tniS looks 10 me ike q pretty
good thing. l have no hesitancy in saying
that ! think Mr.. Grimes made the best
chairman we have ever had. If he and
Mr.. Mcclure could have a perfect under
standing he would make a good chairman
for the coming campaign
Henry Asp: Il do not think there Is
anything in this t ak. and / think Mr..
Grimes would not have it If ii were ten
dered to him.. If he would accept it and
he and Mr.. Mcclure could have an under
standing he would make splendid chair
man. 1t is generally conceded that Mr..
Mcclure ought to select the chairman and
l am willing to leave that matter to him.
Frank Greer: THAT is the best sugges
ton on the line of practical politics that l
have seen in long time. l consider that
Mr.. Grimes extensive acquaintance in
the territory together with his ability as
an organizer makes him the best equipped
man for chairman Of the Republican, cen
trail committee to be found in oklahoma
If Mr.. Mcclure would take a practical
view of this matter and have Grimes ap-
pointed in case he win agree to accept it,
we will elect him hands down. That thing
would at this time absolutely harmonic
every faction and insure a Republican VIC
tory beyond question.

VERY IMPORTANT MEETING.
Firemen of the TWO erritories Hold
Tournament at Guthrie.

Guthrie. 0. T. April 20-It is becoming
very evident that the convention of the
firemen of the two territories to be held
in this city May 10, II and y. is going
TO be a very important meeting.
The line separating Oklahoma and the
Indian Territory has been obliterated in
the minds of the people Of the two sec.
tions and already they are regarded as
one great state. Word was received from
the different cities in the Indian Territory
TO the effect that every fire company in
that section will be Represented by dele
gates in the convention and as matter
of course the territory of Oklahoma will
be well represented.
over at Ardmore the people have adopt
ed novel method of raising the money to
pay the expenses of their firemen at the
convention. An entertainment is to be
given at the opera house next Saturday
night and the proceeds will go to pay the
expenses of the delegates to the c2nven-
ton. The firemen from the Indian Terri
tory will be given a warm reception at
Guthrie and the people here will see that
they are given every opportunity for en-
joyment.
