Wherein to chatter of the last new
play,
Or whisper of a sister gone astray,
Or strip withcruel gossip every trace
Of sweetness from some life borne
down with strife.

ward life:
No room is there for careless jest or
sneer,
For delving into days safely past
Or meaning glances with dire pur-
pose cast,
To cause some trembling soul to blush
or fear.
All these are what a women's club is
not—
Things left behind, outgrown, des-
pised, forgot.
What is a Woman's Club? A meet-
ing ground
For those of purpose great and broad
and strong.
Whose aim is toward the stars, who
ever long
To make the patient, listening world
resound
With sweeter music, purer, nobler
tones,
A place where kindly, helpful words
are said
And kindler deeds are done: where
hearts are fed:
When wealth of brain for poverty
atones,
And hand grasps hand and souls finds
touch with soul.
Where victors in the race for fame
and power
Look backward even in their triumph
hour,
To beckon others toward the shinin
goal.

RATIFIED.
Oklahoma City, O. T., May 17.—
Democratic leaders from all over Ok-
lahoma arrived here today and par-
ticipated in the ratification of Col.
William Cross this evening. An im-
mense crowd was present and its ele-
ments did not lack in enthusiasm.
Col. Cross himself made the principal
speech of the evening and it was well
received. Other gentlemen, among
them candidates defeated by Mr.
Cross in the Enid convention, made
speeches. Mayor Lee Van Winkle
welcomed the visiting Democrats to
the city.

We wish to announce to our patrons aim to the farmer-dairymen,
of Oklahoma that the Grout hill, providing for the manufacture of
oleomargarine on its merits, and foroidding its sale in imitation of
butter has been passed by both houses of congress and has been
signed by the president. This is not only a great victory for t
dairymen of th- country but is a victory for PURE FOOD, which in
these times ot adulteration and fraud, means much to the people
generally. If tne beef steer is King in the west the
Waukomis Hornet: Fred Anderson,
who recently purchased the old Japp
farm 011 Turkey creek, exhibited last
Monday a bunch of volunteer rye
which would seem a prodigy in any
other land than that of the fair god.
It was from a single grain and the
cluster contained 24 stalks, 18 of
which were headed out and averaged
33 inches in length, the heads being
finely developed.
CAMPAIGNS AMI CAMPAIGN LIARS.
The campaign already Inaugurated
against Bill Cross by the republican
papers of the territory is characteris-
tic of that party in every campaign
' that has been waged in Oklahoma.
It has grown to be expected that
the editorial policy of the republican
papers against the nominee of the op-
position Is to be one of vilification
from the start. The precedent, it
seenls, is to be followed closely in the
present instance. At the outset a
s ory has been started that Cross has
DAIRY COW IS QUEEN.
And now with the encroachment of an imitation product re-
moved, she will soon take her rightful place in the markets of the
country. There is no longer any risk in cow investment. The mar.
ket price is absolutely sure, and at a figure that insures rich
returns to every man who milks. Good cows are high but will go
higher. No branch of farming will pay eo well in the future as
dairying. Oklahoma ought to be at the head of every state in the
Union in a few years. And she will. She has the climate, the food
and the market.
