THE NEW
Publtihcd Thursdays
Entered as second class mail matter
at the post office at Davenport, Okla.,
according to act of Congress of March
3rd, 1879.

Publisher
Elsewhere in this issue
will be noticed the January
school report. It is not a
bad report in any respect,
but it does seem that out of
an average daily attendance
of 125, there ought to be
more than 39 neither absent
nor tardy. Very few pupils
of this school have any du
ties that need to interfere
with regular and prompt at
tendance. The grown-up
people who succeed, who are
trusted and respected and
who amount to anything in
the community are the ones
who attend to whatever bus-
iness they have in a prompt,
business-like and careful
manner. The business of
the pupils of the Davenport
school is to attend school.
How they do that will show
what kind of stuff they are
made of. The Era believes
that the people of Daven-
port will be interested in
learning the names of the
boys and girls who have
"get-up" enough about them
to tend to their business, so
we are going to ask Prof.
McLean to give us a list of
those who are neither absent
nor tardy for the next month
and we will print it.
are bitterly opposed to
issue. Changed conditions
have caused many to change
their 6tand on the question
since the election. It is not
probable that the board will
accept any proposal until it
has been discussed and
made public and it is certain
that any vigorous protest
made by a body of citizens
would receive respectful con-
sideration at the hands of
the board. So the best way
out of the uncertainty is for
everyone to state his views,
if he has any, to his trustee,
who will be slow to do any-
thing against the wishes of
the people of his district.

A HERO IN A LIGHTHOUSE
For years J S. Donahue, S. Haven,
Mich., • civil war captain, as a lighthouse
fceeper, averted awful wrecks, but a queer
fact is, he might have bten a wreck, him-
tlf, if Eleetrict Bitters had not prevented.
They cured me of kidney trouble jnd
chills." he writes, "after I had taken other
•o called cures for years, without benefit
and they alao improved my sight. N«w,
at seventy, 1 am baling time." For dys-
pepsia, indigestion, all stomach, liver and
kidney trouble, they're without equal.

Jim Thorpe is to be strip-
ped of his awards as the
world's greatest amateur
athlete, because he accepted
some money for playing with
a base ball team. Thorpe's
frankness in admitting the
facts together with his ex-
planation that he did not
know that he was doing any-
thing wrong, may not save
his medals, but it will
"square" him with the peo-
ple of the west. The peo-
ple of Lincoln county will
always think they have the
greatest athlete in the
world, whatever decision is
reached by others.

The different stories cir-
culated about the Wright
well in the north-east corner
of this county would fill a
good sized book. It's a dry (

"bridged" and the drillers
are trying to clean it outI
and it has been abandoned.

The members of the board
of town trustees are wrest-

pists who want to drill a
deep well for us. The peo-
ple of the town approved the
bond issue by a very decis-
ive vote. The board has,
for some time, had a per-
fect right to sell the bonds
and use the money to drill ;i
well, and the fact that this i
has not been done is due.

"Do it now''
It is said that the oil excite-
ment at Chandler last week was
caused by the drillers pouring
oil into the well and then baling
it out in the presence of some
people on whom they wished to
play a joke.
The Burriss Metal Shingle i
factory was sold last Tuesday at J

of the litigants in the cases that
brought about the sale was the
