little to doubt that the Hercules paid

The Hercules mne which Incorporated and whose affairs are

Just how this dividend places the record can only be ma
ted is safe to however that 1884 paid 20 far this

picture which arrested her attention.

wrong with it," The patient saw a
picture OF very attractive trained
nurse about to hand cup Of some
thing to an equally attractive patient

WHO WANTS STATEHOOD

The Republicans have accused
the Democrats of trying to kill
statehood. In these times, how
ever, action speaks louder than
words, even the words Of poll
tician. The enabling actprovided
that the territorial officials Of
Oklahoma should call and con-
duct the state election after a
constitution had been formed.
When it was apparent that there
would not be funds enough in
the congressional appropriation
to pay the expenses of an cleo
ton and of the constitutional con-
vention Col. Robert l.. Owen
went to Washington and got the
senate to make an appropriation
to cover the deficiency. When it,
came up in the house Bird Nc
Guire (Republican) had the APP
preparation killed,
Who wanted statehood ?
When the constitutional con-
vention was in session and there
was demand for lots of printing
and no funds TO pay for it, the
Guthrie Leader (Democratic)
printed thousands of dollars
worth Of public printing for the
constitutional convention. with
Secretary Fllson Republican,
saying all the time thas he would
not pay the bill.
Who wanted statehood then ?
When time came for printing
the ballots for the state election,
Secretary Filson called for bids
and to every prospective bidder
he wrote that there was no money |
to pay for he work when it was
done, that the territorial officers
would not appropriate a cent for
it and that the printer who got
the job would have to take
chances on getting his money
from other sources. But he could /
not block statehood in that way.
Because Col. j j AcAlester,
a war horse of Democracy in this
territory for twenty-five years,
came forward and put up the
necessary money to cover he
expense of printing the ballots,

that Ardmore is building up more
