KILL THE BILL
GJTHRlE'S ANSWER


cJTHRlE's ANSWER
The governor has asked the citle'
OF Guthrie Shawnee and 0klahomt

to 2,000 acres OF lands for the loca
tion Of the state capitol buildiHSs, It
provided for in lhat townlot bill iron

THAT would not be bad, II the pro
posed bin were other than i SCHEME

Under that bill Guthrie does no

That bill nurposely lett oul all hope

Any proposition made by Guthrie
would indicate the people of our city
were willing to put up with the town

That Is not true.
Guthrie is an unit to kill the bill.
When the time for the location of
the capital Is legally here, under
the terms Of bin as enacted bv The
legislature of this state. as provided
for in the constitution OF Oklahoma,
adopted by the people thereof, Guth
rie will present her statment Of what
It will and can do.
Untll that time there should be nc

is the most disastrous hlow at civic
progress that has hit Central OKLA

No proposition, however fair and
however well backed by men Of hon

cleanse from that townlot scheme the
viclousness of purpose which con
ceived II, and the wickedpess of it's
conception is only exceled by The
