We notice in some of our Territor-
ial Exchanges an article wherein it
seems one Arthur Keith, who was
formerly one of the Ward Keepers in
doing and turn this business into its
proper channel through the retail
honses.
The second article of the constitu-
tion reads;
This association is formed for the
purpose of uniting the retail grocers
to co-operaae for the benefit of all
to abate trade, abuses to dissiminate
usual information, to expose fraud
and adulterations, to watch and in-
fluence legislation toward the better
protection af our capital, to assist
our members in collecting delinquent
accounts, to protect them against
fraudulent customers, to acquire and
hold any property which may be
necessary to carry out and maintain
all the objects and purposes of said
association, to promote social inter-
course, and to encourage members to
comply with the state law by closing
their places of business on Sunday
ai^d all legal holidays.
We wonder if there is an old "hay-
seed" in Cleveland county who don't
understand just what are the real ob-
jects of the above Association. It
means a fixing of prices at which
groceries shall be sold in Guthrie and
the stifling of competition a working
together to secure laws to collect
debts and to make it impossible for
any one to secure credit, should cred-
it bedenied him by one mem her of
the Association; to fix the price they
shall pay for the farmers produce
and to generally make business they
they are engaged in more profitable
and to practically make it impossible
for a man to engage in the retail
grocery business unless he first be-
comes a member of the Association
and keeps himself in good standing
with it. Men outside of Association
no matter how much money they
possess would be unable to purchase
groceries from the wholesale houses
unless they could show a certificate
of membership in the retail Grocer's
Association. Such an Association
will doubtless soon he organized in
tevery town. The dry good's mer-
chants will p.iobab]y follow suit and
the implement men are pretty well
organized now. How about the old
Democrats Put on Record in Kentucky-
In the campaign in the state of
Kentucky this fall for members of
the legislature the Populists did not
put out candidates save in a few
districts and at a state conference of
the Peoples Party the following reso-
lutions were passed unanimously:
"Resolved, That, whereas in many
counties the reform voters have no
ticket of their own, and that in many
counties these voters hold the bal-
ance of power in elections, we recom-
mend, in the interest of practical re-
sults, the following plan of action:
"Resolved, That in counties where
there arc no reform candidates for
legislative offices, Populists organize
to secure practical results and agree
to vote for no man for representative
or senator who will not sign the fol-
lowing pledge:
"If elected to the legislative office
to which I aspire I agree, oil my hon-
or as a man and a citizen of the com-
monwealth of Kentucky, to vote
against any proposed election law
which is not absolutely fair to all
political parties, and does not guaran-
tee to every citizen the full enjoy-
ment of his constitutional rights. I
also agree to vote against any meas-
ure to limit or restrict the suffrage
or to gerrymander the state in such
a way as to give one party an unfair
advantage over any other. 1 also
agree to vote for a bill to submit to
the people of Kentucky an amend-
ment to the constitution of the state
providing for the initiative and refer-
endum. I further agree that no
caucus can cause me to vote other-
wise than above stated."
The above pledge was mailed to
every candidate for the legislature
and from nearly every candidate a
reply has been received. Not a
single democratic candidate for the
legislature in the state would sign
the pledge. Many of them, however,
gave their reasons for not signing;
such as, "I want to be left free to
act as my judgement guides me, I
have not given the subject of direct
legislation sufficient thought to war-
rant me in committing nivself on the
SOMETHING TO APPRECIATE.

A staff of eminent physicians and

These eminent gentlemen have de-
cided to givetnelr services entirely

cepted) to ail invalids who call upon
them for treatment between now and
Nov. loth.
These services consist not only of
consultation, examination and advice,
but also of all minor surgical ope ra
tions.
The object in pursuing this course
is to become rapidly and personally
acquainted with the sick und affiicted
and under no conditions will any
charge whatever be made for any ser-
vices rendered for three months to all
who call before November 15tli.

The Andrew Kingkacle Company, Norman, Okla
the Sanitarium, thinks things are in
a very bad shape at the Sanitarium
and rapidly getting worse. Be
charges that patients are being
starved, kept after being fully cured,
and names still kept on territorial
pay roll after dead. From what we
could learn about Keith is that he is
not of a very strong mind himself,
but as we have not visited institution
under present management we can-
not say how present management
corresponds with former; but in the
near future we propose to treat pre-
sent management like we treated
Dr. Threadgill. Send a man through
the institution to make a thorough
examination without any notice as
to time so that the institution and
how it is managed can be observed
with its every day clothes on.
J farmer'? Don't you think it is about
| time for him to get a hump on him-
I self and take a hand in this organi-
zing business. If men engaged in all
I other kinds of business find it profita-
i ble to organize don't you think the
I farmers would find it profitable also?
| As a matter of self protection thefar-
j mer must organize and the sooner the
better it will be f or them.
Band Concerts-
The Mistletoe Band of Norman will
give a concert on Main St. every

subject etc.-' Many of the republi-
can candidates signed the pledge, a
few declined for about same reasons
democratic candidates gave.
For a candidate to refuse or fail to
sign this pledge under the circum-
stances, without a satisfactory ex-
planation, is virtually to say that he
will not agree NOT TO VOTE for an
unfair and dishonest election law: or
that he will not agree to vote against
laws intending to restrict and abridge
the suffrage; that he will not agree
to support a fair re-apportionment
of the state: or that he is opposed to
direct legislation, and is not willing
to allow the people to vote on the
adoption of an amendment to the
constitution cf the state to that
effect.
A man who is unwilling to trust the
people of a state by giving to them
an opportunity to amend their state
constitution should not be trusted by
the electors of the state and we hope
to see every candidate for the legis-
lature in Kentucky defeated this
fall who fails to pledge himself, if
elected, to give the people of the
state an opportunity to amend their
state constitution.
