Attorney Hoover argued that it was
Brown who importuned the illegal re

amply corroborated by the evidence
and that there was ample evidence
that she was insane at the time of the
shooting. He was followed by Judge
Powers, who concluded his argument

Powers argued that Brown dominat

National Issues


We hereby express our allegiance
to the great principles of government
advocated by the national democratic
party, upon which we believe the fu-
ture welfare of this republic must
depend.
We reaffirm our allegiance to that
greatest living exponent of democratic
principles, William Jennings Bryan,
and endorse him for our presidential
nominee in 1908.
We emphatically demand the reason
able and proper control of transpor-
tation and transmission companies and
the supervision and control Of all en-
terprises engaged in interstate com
merce.
We favor the improvement of the
waterways Of the Missouri valley and
the establishment ow water transpor-
tation wherever practical throughout
the Union.
We believe that the patriotic ele-
ments Of the republican party are no
longer able to control or influence
that great political organism. We be
Ilieve that the machinery Of the party
Ihas fallen under the insidious influ-
ence of the great plutocratic power
and organized monopolies Of this ma
ton.
4 We denounce and condemn the ma
tional republican party for the lavish
use of moneys belonging to the peo-
pie of Oklahoma in the reclamation
service in other states, and pledg'
} our members in our national congress
to use their best efforts to require th'
clamation service to use the money be
longing to Oklahoma in Oklahoma.
We beliye that the vast contribu
/ tions Of money by these special inter
ests have given such interests sucl
/ power over the republican party tha
! remedy for national conditions un
t der which the people suffer is impos
sible through that party,
i We appeal therefore to every goo'

e ing class above the enrichment Of tn
few; and who believe in local self-gov
