BY WILSON
SENATOR GORE ISSUES
STATEMENT AND PLEADS
FOR UNITED FRONT

Washington, July 9. United
States Senator Thomas p. Gore OF
Oklahoma Monday issued the fol-
lowing statement to the oklahoma
democracy:
The national democratic conyen-
tion has come and gone. In many
respects it was unprecedented in
character. Every inch of ground
was vallantly contested by the sup
porters of the several candidates.
The delegates showed the sincerest
devotion TO the chieftains OF their
choice and supported them with un-
faltering fidelity. The nomination,
however, was made unanimous, in
fact and feelil as wen as in form.
The sentiment which prevailed at
the time Of adjournment was that
OF a common cause and a common
purpose toward a common end
Democratic unity and Democratic
triumph.
MY own JOY in victory was equ-
allied only b. my sentiments OF sym
pathy for those to whose lips had
been pressed the bitter cup of dis
appointment and defeat.
II feel the deepest gratitude to-
ward the supporters of Governor
Wilson for their fidelity. l feel the
highest admiration toward the sup
porters of Speaker Clark for their
unselhsh devotion to their leader.
To-day oQly the friendship and
fidelity are remembered. Today on
ly the layalty and devotion are re-
membered. The strife is forgotten.
Democrats in Oklahoma, Demo-
Gratis in the United States. forum
ately have not been divided and
classified into Wilson and anti VIII
son democrats. The choice Of the
convention is now the common
choice. Every Democrat IN Oklaho-
ma will fight valiantly for our com
mon chieftain. We must turn our
eyes to the future, to the battle and
to the coming victory For my own
part, | have no enemies either 10
forgive or to punish. Both Ty-
rians and Trojans shall be treated
by me without distinction. Eel
low Democrats, let us reconsecrate
to the principles of Jeffer-
son and Jackson, to the rights OF !

efore the law and to an unselfsh |
purpose 10 advance the righteous
cause Of true Democracy. Here's to

this method of disposing of rubbish,

One of the largests suits filed for a
hearing at the May term of the dis

suit against the Chicago, Rock Island
and Pacific railway, in which he de-
mands $4,000 for the death of his

The father of the lad, who brings
the suit as the administrator of the
estate Of his son, sets forth in his
petition that the train which was re-
sponsible for the killing, blocked a
street crossing in violation Of city
ordinance, and that the lad, after wait
ing for greater length of time than
provided for by the ordinance,
then tried to pass between two cars.
In addition, the plaintiff says the
railway company was at fault again,
for there was no warning whistle to
indicate the intended movement OF
the train, and it is also claimed that
no bell was rung.
