apparent from the start that the con
vention must declare for either one
or the other.
The result Of the convention showed
that the Republicans intend to take a
stand this year and that they will stay
by the decision they make.
AS Oklahoma county has the larg-
est delegation at the state convention
ii is believed there is now no doubt
that McGraw will be elected national
committeeman.
In part the resolutions adopted
are:
The Democratic party, an accident
in the governmental affairs of our
nation, has forced our nation to pass
through another experimental stage
of legislation and inactive admins
tration. The spinelesS and amateur
ish foreign policy of our national ad-
ministration has been such as to
make us the laughing stock among
|the nations of the earth Our cit
izens have been ruthlessly murdered
upon the high seas: our citizens and
soldiers have been murdered and as
sassnated, and our women have been
insulted within the borders of our
own nation. Our flag has been
trampled in the dust from one end
of the world to the other, and now,
within the last few days the latest
attempt to maintain the dignity of
our proud nation has been n punitive
invasion of Mexico, with the distinct
understanding that our soldiers must
encamp without the cities, must not
go near any inhabited section; and
we might add an implied under
standing that our soldiers must not
shoot even in self f-defense, until the
de facto government has given its
permission.
Cn-AmcricansC Conduct.
We contend, as a representative
of the Republican party that such
conduct on the part of our nation is
not only un-Republican but un-
American.
We condemn the present state ad-
miuistration for the following rea-
sons: II has shown the usual incom-
potency OF Democratic administra-
ton. 1T has created numerous Off
ces, merely for the purpose of sup
plying positions for Democrats un-
able otherwise to subsist. 1t has in
creased the expenses of state gov
eminent until its cXtravagances have
become a burden to the taxpayer.
1t has discouraged the investment of
capital within our borders, and in
many instances driven industries
from the state. The recent so-called
extra session of The legislature"
passed. and the present administra-
tion is seeking to put into force, the
most ncfarious registration law ever
attempted among "A free people.
Therefore be it resolved, That we
commend the Republican party to the
voters of America. as the only means
of bringing relief to tax-ridden state
and a misgoverned and misguided ma
ton.
Instruct for McGraw.
That we acknowledge our obliga-
tions to, and point with pride to the
record of the Honorable John Fields,
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1916-03-19

whose candidacy and campaign for
the govern norship in nineteen and
fourteen was such as to elicit the ad-
miration Of enemy as well as friend.
And we instruct the delegates select
ed at this convention to the state con-
vention. to cast their votes for the
Honorable John Fields as a delegate
at large t. the Republican national
convention at Chicago.
Believing that a reunited, reor-
ganiZed and active Republican party
i'm the state of oklahoma can wrest
victory from defeat. and that "A re
organization can only be secured by
the selection of our strongest leaders,
we instruct the delegates from this
convention to the states convention
to cast their votes for the Honorable
James j. McGraw as national COM
mittceman from oklahoma.

at the German detention camp at
Puchheim, Bayern.
Stekoll was serving with the Rus
sian army wnen captured and the
chances are he will be held prisoner
until the end of the war. Recently his
brothers in Tulsa received postcard
from him, bearing his photograph in
military costume and he looked haie
and hearty.
The fact that they are getting mail
from him is an indication that the
Germans do not exercise a very strict
censorship on correspondence from
their prisoners. although of course
they go over every line Of mail that
leaves the detention camp.
