a foregOne conclusion. The only
wonder is that it was thought neces-

UNION LABOR TO
FIGHT INQUIRE
Reputation Of Former Campaign
Promise to enid Trades Council
Is Responsible for Action.

Enld, Okla, July 2s-union labor
took a firm stand against Congress-
man Bird Mcclure last night when
the Trades Council Of this city, com.
prising an the local labor organlza-
tions. voted as unit to oppose Me-
CURE, for denomination, and even
went so far as to select II A. Brett
enstein official delegate TO other la
Dor organizations In this district to
inform these organizations OF Nc
Cures dupllcIty aud get them to Join
In the order to unseat him.
This action came as result Of Nc.
Cures denial OF the authenticity Of
his platform and letters to the Enid
Trades Council two years ago during
the campaign In which platform and
letters Mcclure pledged himself TO
vote against Cannon for speaker and
20 vote for a revision OF the house
rules. The original letters were
brought before the Trades Council by
Mr.. Breitensteln, who was secretary
at the time Mcclure made the prom
ises he now denies haysag made, and
when the members saw that Mcclure
was simply foIsifying after having be-
trayed them by his broken pledges,
they decided to take action at once Ia
order that other labor unions might
not be duped In the same manner.
MeGuires signature to the letters
in which he made there pledges had
previously been identified by the pres
ident of each Of the i've Enid banks.
Besides the letters themselves con-
tanned references which made It Inn
possible to believe McGuire's public
statements that he did not dictate
them. The laboring men are in earn.
est and they expect to aid In putting
the congressman out Of business.

alton and giving his broken pledges

HOBBY AT CtAREMORE
MAKES GOOD IMPRESSION

In a mastery way the Hon r. j.
Hobby. Of vinita. Okla, addressed a
splendid audience IN Claremore satur-
dey night. on the grandfather amend
ment to the constitution OF Oklahoma.
Mr. Hobby has a unique manner of
expressing himself. and his hearers
are charmed with the delivery of his
message and the foreefulness Of his
argument; and there were few, II any,
after hearing his discussion of his sub
lect. who went away with an abiding
conviction that Oklahoma needs the
ignorant colored voter to properly ad.
Just her politics.
He showed clearly that Oklahoma
needs not fear her own colored people
so much as the thousands Of ignorant
black people that are headed for Ok.
lahoma as the best place left for the
blaekman; and tactfully cautioned
on relationship that It will be bad
policy for Oklahoma to offer reward
for that class Of voters that in other
states have been weighed In the bal
ance and found wanting -claremors

TO MR.. MURRAY

Hon. VIM. n. Murray:
You and your campaign managers
continue to circulate over this state
the charge that while In the banking
business / charged usurious rates of
interest, and have repeatedly referred
to me as Forty Per Cent Cruce."
During our debates | made you this
proposition: You may go in person
and take with you any reputable bank
ing expert, to the Ardmore National
bank of Ardmore, Okla, and examine
the books Of that bank, and II you can
find one single loan made by me ex-
listing in that bank at the time sever
ed my connection with 1t on January
1st, 1910. where the amount Of loan
exceeded one hundred dollars, and the
time OF loan ran for more than one
month, that the rate of discount ex-
ceeded ten per cent per annum, viii
withdraw from this race, and If you
fail to find such loan you are 70 with
draw.
This offer will hold good until the
polls close on August 2.
Yours truly,

nit no more of It to go to contractors,
bat pay estimates In each.
OF the $4,000 remaining, consid-
erable portion will probably be taken
BY cities and counties that have sink.
ing funds to invest. The paper bears
8 per cent, and, In addition to being
non.taxable, is of long time. which
makes II better investment than the
general revenue per cent warrant

sary in the construction of state in
stitution buildings.
Payment OF the warrants is guaran-
teed out Of the funds derived from

mates have been made by the manag-
ing boards showing that between
$780, 900 and s1.OOO,OOO viii be due by

as agreed upon, banks taking the pub
sic building paper will be favored with
a deposit to the amount OF the pur.
chase, which win probably remain In.

The idea Of reissuing the paper IN
