BALUNGER TO RETIRE
FROM TUFT'S CABINET
It is reported that Secretary Bal-
linger has announced that he will re-
tire from President Taft's cabinet at
an early date. It is unfortunate for
the president that he ever whs ap-
| pointed to the position.
Joe W. McNeal, in his swing around
tho circle in the interest of his can-
didacy for the Republican nomination
for governor dropped off in Norman
Friday afternoon to meet his friends
and make a speech at the court house
that evening. Mr. McNeal is a plain
matter-of-fact man, blunt and honest
and not what one would term a smooth
guy. He would make a fine governor,
if chosen to this responsible position.
The two leadlDg Republican candi-
dates in the race are McNeal and
Ferguson—two men very much alike
in many respects: Both the straight-
forward, toe-the-mark sort of fellows
men who actually believe that a
public office is a public trust, and
that the duties pertaining to the of-
fice should be discharged with fidelity
by the office-holders, and not the of-
fice used as a means to build up and
strengthen a party machine.
Married, in this city Sunday, Father
Miller officiating, Mr. Norval Som-
mers of this city, to Miss Rebecca
Skorkosky, of Oklahoma City. The
groom is well known in this city and
holds the position of electrician with
the Norman Milling and Grain Com-
pany. He is a most worthy young
man, and we learn that his bride is a
very estimable young womam and a
most thorough your.g American, not-
withstanding her name might indi-
cate. foreign birth. TLe munv
of the groom in this city will wel-
come his brHe and wish them much
joy and happiness and prosperity,
and a long life.
New and attractive patterns already arriving. W
are always up to the minute with everything—but we are
;; just a month ahead of everyything else in this seoson's 11
•' papers. We have she prettiest papecs that will be shown I
•• this year. A glance at any of the new lot will convince !!
you of this, you are aspecially invited to come in and see
• these new wall papers.
