chairman of the meeting, and John
S. Allan of Norman, as secretary.
Oklahoma has five votes in the
Springfield convention, and on motion
the convention decided to elect ten
Oklahoma delegates, each with half a
vote, and instructed them to place
their proxy In case they are unable
to attend.
Spencer E. Sanders was elected na
tional committeeman unanimously.
Delegate Renfrew of Woods county
'was also mentioned for the place. On
a motion of Secretary Allan the nam
ing of the members of the territorial
central committee was deferred until
the congressional convention at Okla
homa City July 26.
A motion was made to instruct the
delegates to the . Springfield conven
tion to vote for none but a populist for
the presidential nominee, -but in the
discussion relative to the naming of
territorial committeeman this motion
was lost sight of and never came to a
vote. It expressed almost the unani
mous sentiment of the convention,
however, and would certainly have
passed had it come to a vote. Sev
eral of the delegates ia speaking of
this said that unless the populist par
ty took an independent stand, na
tionally, it' would only be a question
of a few years until it would bcome
extinct by absorption in the other par
ties. Firm confidence was expressed,
however, in populistic piinciples.

Jn a letter from Oneonta. N. Y.. savs:
I am fully convinced that Peruna Is all
rights to all and special privileges to
none;" that we are unalterably op
posed to any decrease in the standard
money of our country, and we demand
legislation that will keep all coinage
and the issuing of all money in' the
hands of the general government, and
that will effectually stop banks and
other moneyed corporations from in
creasing or decreasing the amount of
circulation for the purpose of arbitrar
ily fixing the prices of labor or of the
products of labor, the mines or on the
farms or elsewhere. And we con
demn all efforts to establish an asset
currency and all laws that affect ad
versely the welfare of individuals or
of the nation or that places the peo
ple at the mercy of corporations, whe
ther they be called banks, mergers,
trusts, companies, associations or by
other names, and we demand the re-
peal of all such laws and the enact
ment of useful laws in the interest of
all.
"That we condemn all efforts to con
vert the great republic of the United
States into an empire in" name or in
fact. We favor granting to the citi
zens of our acquired possessions equal
right with all other citizens and de
mand that they be given equal pro
tection under our constitution and our
flag or that they bo encouraged to
form free governments of their own
at the earliest possible time.
"That we condemn excessive taxa
tion in state or nation, that leads to
wasteful extravagance and that is a
fruitful source of corruption and
Doodling in office, and we demand a3
ever that all revenues be limited to
the needs of the government honestly
and economically administered
