The Oklahoma kill is bow on top
in the House and eengress.«nal elo-
quence again is flowing in a mighty
stream. It now seems likely that
the bill will pass the Houg at I ast.
The amount of free advertising
"kick tke Panhandle receives from
the hands of editors who come from
the east to kekold its beauties is
something wonderful. Almost eyery
some new sheet reaches our
table telling about the beauties and
the natural resources of the Pan-
handle. No man has yet sent out
a bad report either, which fact
'peaks volumnes for our. country.
The ieaven is working and the good
tiuie is almost at hand.
I ue action of our county eon ven-
tien in giving instructions to its
delegate! support Temple Hous-
ton for state senator is especially
commendable. He is a brainy young
statesman, an ornament and an
honor to Texas aad to tke Panhan-
dle and should be kept where his
talents can be employed to advan-
tage. The only regret about the
¡natter is our people cannot have
a chance to support him for a higher
—J important position.
