While my party was in opposition, I had preached, with all the fervor and zeal I possessed, our duty to intervene in Cuba, and to take this opportunity of driving the Spaniard from the Western World. Now that my party had come to power, I felt it incumbent on me, by word and deed, to do all I could to secure the carrying out of the policy in which I so heartily believed; and from the beginning I had determined that, if a war came, somehow or other, I was going to the front. Meanwhile, there was any amount of work at hand in getting ready the navy, and to this I devoted myself. Naturally, when one is intensely interested in a certain cause, the tendency is to associate particularly with those who take the same view. A large number of my friends felt very differently from the way I felt, and looked upon the possibility of war with sincere horror. But I found plenty of sympathizers, especially in the navy, the army, and the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs. Commodore Dewey, Captain Evans, Captain Brownson, Captain Davis--with these and the various other naval officers on duty at Washington I used to hold long consultations, during which we went over and over, not only every question of naval administration, but specifically everything necessary to do in order to put the navy in trim to strike quick and page 2 / 223 hard if, as we believed would be the case, we went to war with Spain.

  • 'INTRODUCTORY Xix City Governments Were at Once Organized
    'INTRODUCTORY xix City governments were at once organized, and 'while these had no real authority, according to the strict letter of the law, yet they were obeyed and proved as useful 'and efficient a means of maintain­ ing order as were the wholly self-constituted governments of the New .England Puritans. ' ) The Organic Act, legally establishing Oklahoma Territory and pro­ viding a for;m of government became a law on May 2, 1890. Power was given the president to appoint the governor and the secretll.ry, and the jUQges of the supreme court, The governor was given the power to appoint all other executive officials. The legislature consisted of a council of thirteen members and a house of representatives of twerity- . six. The supreme court judges acted also as district judges, and as the territory grew in size and population, the number of these judges was increased from three to five and then to seven. ' Ueorge W. Steele of Indiana became the first territorial governor, May 22, 1890. Guthrie was designated as the temporary capital and remained so until June 11, 1911, when it was moved to Oklahoma City by referendum vote of the citizens. The election was held invalid by the State Supreme Court on a defect in the bill, but Governor Haskell called a special session of the legislature, which body located the capital at Oklahoma City, December 29th by more than a two-thirds majority vote. After being in office a year and a half Governor Steele resigned and on October 18, 1891, Judge A. J. Seay, a supreme court judge of the territory was named to succeed him.

TERRITORIAL GOVERNORS GEORGE WASHINGTON STEELE, the first Territorial Governor, was born December 13, 1839, in Fayette County, Indiana, but spent most of his life in the city of Marion, Indiana. He read law and was admitted to the bar after he had completed his studies at Ohio Wesleyan University. Leaving his law practice in Hartford City, Indiana, he volunteered for service in the Union Army and served throughout the Civil War and for ten years afterwards. He then returned home and entered business at Marion. A Republican, he served as Congressman from Indiana from March ty, 1883, to March 3, 1889. His experience as an army officer probably influenced President Harrison in selecting him as the initial Governor of Oklahoma Territory. Steele took the oath of office immediately upon his arrival in Guthrie on May 22, 1890. 10,000 people from all parts of the territory attended the festive event. It was Steele's responsibility to organize the government of the new territory including the appointment of local officials until elections could be held and to carry out the first census (1890) so that representation for the first legislature could be apportioned.
