Perry Sharpens His Knife.

Muskogee, I. T., Nov. 14.-Ed Perry
OF Coalgate returned today from
Washington. He Is one of the 200
who fell by the wayside at the
hands OF the mighty couple from
Oklahoma-Frantz and Hunter-in
the federal appointments for the
new state. To say that Perry Is
sore is putting 1t mildly.
He is vice chairman OF the repub-
lcan state committee and now that
Hunter is a federal appointee. II
precedent is followed, he must re-
sign that chairmanship and Perry
will become chairman. Perry be-
longs to the big crowd OF outs who
are sharpening their knives to show
Frantz and Hunter that they do not
constitute the party in Oklahoma
Perry says that Hunter, Frantz
Busby and one other member OF
that crowd propose to grab the four
places as delegates at large from
Oklahoma to the national conven
ton. He also says that A, o. Wells
OF Ardmore Is slated for appoint
ment as internal collector for the
new state by the Frantz-Hunter
combine.
The Republican state emblem In
Oklahoma should be changed from
tle eagle to the double-cross,' re
marked Perry, bitterly. referring &c
the part Frantz and Hunter took
in the Endorsement OF federal ap
pointees.

Douglas Sure Of Empty Honor.

Muskogee. |. T., Nov. 1i.-Co'onel
Clarence Il. Douglas. nd''or OF the
Muskogee Phoenix. says hat he is
going 10 get the caucus nomina.
tion OF the minority IN the Okla
Iona Legislature for United States
senator from the iudiam trrit ,.y
side OF the s.a.c
The democrats accorded one nom.
ination to Indian Territory and one
to Oklahoma territory, and the re
publicans propose to follow that pre-.
cedent. The republicans elected but
three members of the Legislature
from the Indian Territory side. They
are II. E. p. Stanford OF Okmulgee.
member OF the senate. and Colonel
A. ID. Orcutt of Wagner county
and w. C. McAdoo OF Okfuskee coun.
ty. These three members have pledg.
ed themselves to Douglas and to the
proposition OF demanding that one
OF the caucus nominations shall come
TO Indian Territory. There are but
twenty-one republicans all told in
the legislature.

publicans will OF course be but an
empty honor, but 1t will give the

nominee. Now that he has discarded
Roosevelt on the one hand and Bryan

The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1907-11-15

Mr.. Bryan's first great public ap-
pearance was made when the Wilson
tariff bill passed the house of rep
resentatives. The speech he made
in its support was heralded all over
the United States as a magnificent
contribution TO the literature of tar.
in taxation. He has never at any
time been other than revisionist
and has never stood upon a plat.
form which did not denounce the ex.
isting tariff. Repeatedly he has de
clared that the tariff and railroad
determinations were the fundamental
causes OF the growth OF trusts and
of what President Roosevelt calls,
swollen fortunes In private con
versation. as well as In mis- piblic
utterances. he has urged immediate
tariff revision, more stringent rail
road regulation and the enforcement
OF antitrust laws. That the lows
papers suddenly blaze with headlines
signalling forth the fact that Mr..
Bryan is for tariff revision is somc
thing OF mystery. Some rather
obscure democrats in Illinois have
put forth proclamation in the
form OF letter written by 'ne
Charles X. I-add urging that Mr.
Charles X. Ladd, urging that Mr..
Bryan should cease his discussion of
democratic issues. One wonders how
ever who would lead the discussion
II Mr.. Bryan did not. What he said is
listened to. and he has the leisure,
the strength and the ability to ad.
dress great numbers of the people.
He is the strongest force today for
publicity in the democratic party.
The newspapers reprint his argu'
meuts. even though many OF them
ridicule or attempt to contravert
them. Whether he shall be the nom
inee or not, the actual nominee will
be indebted for most CT his strength
among democratic voters to the work
which Mr.. Bryan is doing in sowing
the seed OF democratic thought
throughout the United States.
