THE DEMOCRATIC CITY CONVENTION
Pursuant to call of the Central Committee, the city
democratic convention met in Millers Hall at 2 p.m. Tuesday.

A meeting of the committee had been held Tuesday morning,
W.W. PRICE being temporary chairman and A.B. STIRGUS,
secretary. After attending to a few more minor affairs the
committeemen adjourned to meet with the convention at 2 p.m.
Before the hour appointed many people had arrived and the
interest shown then bespoke the enthusiasm that was to
follow. The scene was picturesque. The several groups of
delegates occupied their respective places which were
designated by large placards and behind the stage.
'Old Glory' was lifted above all which impressively bespoke
the desire of every democrat which is, "That the good of
his country is above all."

The convention was called to order by temporary chairman,
who in a befitting speech told of the purpose of the
convention, and of the greatness of the party of which it
formed a part. Chairman proceeded at once to business
appointing committees as follows:
On credentials E.E. TAYLOR, D. TURNER, M.E. WHITTON;
committeemen on resolutions, P.P. SHAW, RANDALL LIVESAY and
CARL GLITCH; committee on order of business, J.T. BLACKMORE
and W.I. MATHENY; committee on permanent organization, J.H.
KERR, SMITH and J.A CRAIG.

A recess was then given to enable the committees to make
their reports. While the committee were then engaged the
convention listened to an eloquent speech by C.V. LYMING, a
Kentuckian, who has cast his lot with the people of Anadarko.
The committees making known their readiness, the reports
were heard and adopted. The committee on resolutions
reported as follows:

A heated debate was held on a proposed amendment viz. that
it should require a two thirds majority to nominate the
candidate, proposed by CARL GLITCH and warmly supported by
I.H. KERR and J.M. SHOENHEIT, it was ably protested against
by JUDGE MATHENY, P.P. SHAW and others, the question being
called and a rising vote taken. The amendment was defeated
by a majority of one, the standing 17 in favor and 18
opposed.

W.H. DIVERS name was put in nomination for mayor by P.P.
SHAW and amidst much enthusiasm the nomination was made
unanimous.

THEODORE PRUITT was unanimously nominated for Police Judge.
Mr. Pruitt responded to the call of speech in such an able
manner that everyone was satisfied that he was eminently
qualified for the position to which he aspires.

EDWARD BITCHER was chosen as street commissioner upon a
ballot being taken. The unsuccessful nominees being J.W.
HEAM and J. HALLINGSHEAD. VERDE V. HARDCASTLE and J.M.
SCHOENHEIT were placed in nomination for city attorney.
Each demonstrated by their speech that on whichever one the
honor fell that there would not be a mistake made. MR.
HARDCASTLE was the choice of the convention.

Chairman W.W. PIERCE (sic) was nominated for city clerk; B.
DIXON for city treasurer; J.F. HEFFLEY for city marshall
and J.R. LANE for school board treasurer; DOLAN HALL for
justice of the peace; J.W. HEAM and F. WITT, constables. It
was more than carried that the central committee fill the
vacant place for justice of the peace and all other offices necessary.

All business being attended to the convention adjourned.
----------------------------------------------
RESOLUTIONS
We, the democrats of the city of Anadarko, in convention
assembled, reaffirm our allegiance to the broad principles
of democracy as laid down by Thomas Jefferson and
incorporated in our national platforms. We pledge our
loyalty and undivided support to the upbuilding of
Anadarko, to the end that she may become the Queen City and
metropolis of the southwest and we affirm that in our
judgement these results may be best attained under a
democratic administration. We favor municipal ownership of
all public utilities and in the event of our success we
pledge our administration of the construction and
maintenance of an adequate system of waterworks, electric
lights, sewerage and all other city improvements. We favor
an economical business administration of city affairs. We
hold in contempt the threat of the local republicans that
the national republican administration will withhold
appropriations of the funds, placed in the subtreasury by
citizens of all parties, for the upbuilding of Anadarko and
denounce such a course as beneath the honor of our
political opponents.

BRIDGEPORT NEWS
Interesting Items from a Caddo County Town Taken From the
'El Reno American'
----------------------------------------------
Bridgeport was visited by a fine rain Monday, the rain
continued almost the entire day, soaking the ground to the
depth of six inches and all building for the present is
stopped.
----------------------------------------------
The South Canadian at this point is full to its' banks.
----------------------------------------------
The time is not far distant when we will have an
incorporated town and the sheriff's services will not be so
necessary.
----------------------------------------------
The new hotel is now nearing the fourth story and will be, when
completed, one of the handsomest and most substantial
structures in the Southwest. MR. FRANK TURNER, the owner,
is to be commended for his enterprise in giving the town of
Bridgeport so fine a building.
----------------------------------------------
It is now a certainty that the Choctaw will move the freight and
passenger depot about one half mile east of its present
location to a point near the foot of Main street. As it is
now, it is very difficult to handle the immense amount of
freight and baggage that is taken on and off here every
day. Besides there is not platform for passengers to get on
and off of trains. There seems to be general
dissatisfaction with the way the Choctaw handles business
here and it is to be hoped that the suggested change will
be forthcoming.
==================================
ATTORNEY BABLER of the firm of Babler Lyons & Co., has
arrived from his home in Missouri where he has spent the
last few weeks. Mr. Babler is much pleased with the rapid
improvement of Anadarko and will make this his home.

There are but eight candidates for members of the school
board, the exact number to be elected. This is the result
of an agreement between the two parties. It is important
that the school board commence work as soon as possible so
as to have the schools ready to begin at an early date. Of
course the candidates can take no official action until
after they are elected and qualified, but, as their
election is assured, they can canvass the situation and be
prepared to act quickly when the time comes. Both parties
deserve credit for leaving the schools out of politics.
----------------------------------------------
There has been some trouble arising from the attempt of
white men to settle on Indian allotments and LIEUT. COL.
RANDLET has asked the government authorities at Washington
for troops to eject the settlers, but the squatters seeing
that the government meant business in reference to the
Indian allotments when it said "keep off the grass,"
decided to "quit claim."Among those who settled on Indian
allotments were three deputy marshals from Guthrie, W.D.
FASSETT, NED SISSON and DEPUTY SMITH. Deputy Smith jumped
GEORGE CONOVERS land southeast of the city, deputy Fassett
attempted to make settlement on the land of OTTO WELLS,
which allotment is very valuable and joining Anadarko on
the south and lying just west of the Methvin Mission, while
deputy Sisson located on a quarter owned by W.F. DERRICKS.
Col. Randlet sent for MARSHAL THOMPSON at Guthrie and the
sheriff called in his men. The deputies deny acting in any
official capacity.
----------------------------------------------
HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED
The identify of the man that had been murdered and thrown
in the river some 5 or 6 miles east of town about six weeks
ago, and who was found and buried at the time, has been
learned. MR. C.P. TOMPKINS, of Weatherford, Okla., came
here a few days ago and after consulting with the
undertaker MR. BROOK, JUDGE CRUM and DR. MITCHELL, who held
the autopsy, he was satisfied it was his father-in-law,
JOHN R. TILLEY, for whom he was hunting. So procuring a
permit from acting coroner Judge Crum last Tuesday, he
disentered the body and with MR. PAT OGDEN, who knew Mr.
Tilley well, they fully identified it as the remains of
Mr.Tilley by the clothing and teeth. Mr. Tilley left
Weatherford sometime in August and drove to Oklahoma City
where was a few days attending to some business matters, he
then wrote to his family that he would be home in a few
days as he was starting back but would come by the way of
Anadarko. This was the tast they ever heard him, and
reading the account of the body of a man being found,
became uneasy and Mr. Tompkins came to investigate.

The night before Mr. Tilley left home he picked up a
stranger known as RED MILLER, who was supposed to be with
him all the time. This man is described as a man about 28
or 30 years old, medium height, weighing about 150 pounds.
The friend of Mr. Tilley would like very much to get a
trace of this, also the team and hack he was driving.
Tilley had about $60 in money with him when he was killed.
----------------------------------------------
IT WAS LOADED
R.A. WILLIAMS, a contractor, accidentally shot himself
Thursday morning while dressing. His trousers were under
his pillow and in pulling them out his pistol fell to the
floor and was discharged, the ball taking effect in his leg
but fortunately proved nothing more than a flesh wound. He
will be confined to his bed for some time, but our last
report was that he was getting along nicely.
----------------------------------------------
TO BURN BRICK
The Anadarko Brick Yard has the work of making brick well
under way. The moulders are now at work and the fires will
be started in about ten days. One hundred thousand brick
will be burned to start with. Several experts on brick
making have visited the yards recently and pronounce the
clay the best in this part of the territory.

There will be a great demand for the brick as soon as
ready. Many of them will be used in chimneys, foundations,
etc., and several parties are ready to contract for brick
for the erecion of substantial brick blocks.
----------------------------------------------
RESIDENCE PROPERTY IN DEMAND

Investors should not overlook the good rents that can be
realized from residence property. There are many men living
here with their families at some other point because they
can not rent a house here in which to live, and many
families who intend going on farms in the spring would move
to this place during the winter months if they could rent a
house.

The profits to be made from the renting of residence
property are great enough to make such an investment
profitable. The danger of loss from fire in the residence
portion of the city is much less than in the business part,
and the relative increase in the price of lots should be
equally as great.

This is a question that not only interests those looking
for homes or profitable investments, but it is of interest
to every person interested in the success of Anadarko.
Everything possibly should be done to furnish all who would
locate among us cheap and comfortable homes.
