John, | quote the following from
you: IL am not a member OF any fra

You also boast of being a pioneer

John, and know that the early settlers
here endured hardships almost unbear-
able. Here at Tulsa when hundreds
Of the settlers who made the run fol
land arrived at our wagon yards sick
and many destitute, We. had no charity
organizations, no Salvation Army. no
city government and all We could dc
was to find what order they belonged
to, if any, and then go 10 the members

John, you speak of those democrats
who are supporting you Let's see
Cam Russell defeated by overwhelming

advance and against Russell and tn
gas trust. Any wonder Cam don't lik
Walton.
