We win always pet two runs when the ottior team
guts five nr six.
Ilut nobody is much surprised that free lumber
had to walk the plank.
The liiuli cost of hay is no doubt explained by the
demand for the millinery trade.
Sehoolbooks should be m'ost painstakingly scru-
tinized in the interests of civic righteousness—after
they have been adopted.
If Gen. Hancock were only living he could run
for president and be elected on his much derided
platform that the tariff is a local issue.
Louisiana put one man out of tho United State®
senate because he wouldn't vote to protect sugar
and it is evident that it won't occur again.
It would hardly do to dedicate n church window
to a living man, but the Metropolitan Temple of
New York skillfully evaded the tae.it rule that for-
bids such a proceeding by dedicating its new win-
dow to the Roosevelt administration. And even
that no president ever had done for him before.
A recent advertisement in a Paris paper read: For
Sale, present holder retiring to the country, good
situation fo,- one-leggod man; neighborhood of thu
Ktoile; hour ; of work, 2 p in., to 7 p. in. Receipts,
$2.4(1 to $:!.!"). Regular passersby, children and
strangers. Or any infirmity would suit."
Begging seems to be a profitable and legitimate
business in Paris when a "stand" is openly offered
for sale.
MAKE THE MEDALS VALUABLE.
From the number of awards that have been made
it looks as if the members of the Carnegie Hero
Fund Commission were exercising good judgment
in the distribution of rewards for bravery, recog-
nizing only claims of proved merit. During the five
years that the commission has been in existence, only
thirteen gold medals have been awarded, one hun-
dred and twenty silver, and one hundred and Hiirty-
six bronze. Of the 3,219 claims made, only 246 have
been granted, 2,050 refuged. The careful discrimin-
ation shown by the commission is us it should be. A
too generous bestowal of the awards would not only
lerve to make them less significent, but would de-
plete the fund to such mi extent as to interfere with
the carrying out of the purpose which the founder
had in view.
ABOUT NEWSPAPERS
Milton A. McRae of the Scripps-MeHae League
of Newspapers, in an address before the Detroit
Wholesalers' association recently, said:
"Reporters are on the average one of the
most reliable classes in a community and if
untruths and inaccuracies appear in their re-
ports it is because those from whom they seek
truth tell untruths.
"A reporter's position depends on his being
at least as accurate as the resources of bis in-
formation. The newspapers of Detroit are as
reliable as those of any city.
"Newspapers are the best advertising med-
iums as they circulate and reach everybody.
"N'o man doubts that advertising pays.
"Several years ago every daily newspaper in
Chicago suspended publication five days on ac-
count of a struggle with labor unions, and dur-
ing the five days the general business of that
city fell off 50 per cent.
"Printing and publishing now constitute the
seventh largest industry in the United States.
"The growth in twenty years ha excelled all
else, except perhaps the business use of the tel-
ephone.
"The cost of producing a newspaper has
doubled in a decade. Growth has made the
cost imperative, and yet two newspapers, one
in New oYrk and one in Chicago, make more
than $1,000,000 each in a year.
"News is often suppressed, wholly or par-
tially, for the public benefit at the time.
"At the beginning of the last panic the
president of one of the large western banks
died.
"Newspapers and the press associations pub-
lished the death as due to natural causes, when
they knew that it was a case of suicide. This
course was agreed on after consultations for
fear knowledge of the truth at that time might
intensify the panic.
"A smallpox epidemic in Chicago that con-
tinued for months was handled and stamped
out and, by general agreement, not a line about
it was printed in the newspapers.
"The Everett-Moore syndicate failure in
Cleveland a few years ago was known in news-
paper offices four days before publication, and
the news was held back to enable business and
financial interests to arrange a plan that should
work the best saving of assets.
"There have been numerous other similar cases.
"During the last panic the newspapers of tho
country were ultra-conservative with business
and financial news.
"It is said less news of crime should be print-
ed.
"It may be that the printing of such news
injuries a few, but the many are benefited. In
olden times crimes were made known and per-
petrators run down by general hue anil cry, in
which everyone was required to join.
"The good will of a newspaper is wortn five
times its material assets, and its circulation is
the foundation of its success.
"The newspaper must be judged compara-
tively.
"The American public is the jury.
"Editors have their ideals, but have to do tho
best they can.
"The fundamental principles of this country
are free Behools, free speech and a free press.
"The American newspapers have no equal in
foreign lands, and with all their defects arc do-
ing well their part in developing and building
up this great country."

THE HOUSE OF THE BIG LOGS.
One of the most Interesting structures
t the Alaska.-Yukon-Pacific exposition
will be thu forestry building. In making
126 choice fir logs have been used as
main columns. These pieces of fir tlm
ber are no ordinary logs. Tho longest,
.enty-slx of them, are each fifty-tour
feet long, and all the rest ure forty-two
feet long. The average diameter at the
top Is six feet six Inches, liach of the
largest of the co jmns conjoins abo
13,000 feet of lumber. This building will
be 312 feet long, 128 feet wide and 90
feet high. Lumbering is Washington's
greatest industry and it is fitting that
in the forestry building lumber should
be used lavishly. That is the way it has
been used, according to J. W. Slayden of
Tacoma, a member of the state board
of exposition commissioners, wno says
that the building is the most striking
feature within the exposition grounds.
The structure contains 2,016,000 feet of
lumber and 300,000 cedar shingles havi
been used.
WOULD YOU
And would you have the curtain fall
Between your life and mine—
Twlxt you and me,
And so have darkness cover all—
The sun to never shine?
For so 'twould be.
Would you have sllenco like a wall,
Forever block our ways-
Hold us apart.
Keep mo from you, my life, my all—
Wo, who in other days
Wer© heart to heart?
Shall all my longings be in vain —
Shall all the prayers I've said
Find no reply?
Shall all my loving end In pain,
And all my hopes be dead?
Then let me die.
Yes, let me die, for what Is life-
Let have all It brings.
And lacking you?
It Is not worth the toll and strife—
The smarts, the hurts, the stings,
For Joys so few.
'Twere better that I pass away
Into another land—
A land more fair,
Ami wait, with all the hope I may,
The touch of your dear hand
When we meet there.
— Henry Sinclair.
THE STATE PRESS
EOUCOTION WITHOUT MONEY
The A. and M. college authorities have
arranged to accept students who are
financially unable to pay their own board
and are now giving to such students.
This is accomplished by providing
enough pay work for these ambitious
•orkers to enable them to defray their
ctual living expenses. Tutltlon is free.
Only enough money is required on en-
trance to pay for books needed. Five
dollars will cover this item. This new
course of education and Industrial train-
ing is now open for the first time to
white boys sixteen years of age and
over and no examinations are required
of applicants. Students can also enter
at any time before January 1. This Is a
remarkable departure from the usual ed-
ucational efforts. For further informa-
tion concerning this peculiar and rare
opportunity to gain an education, par-
ents of ambitious boys should write to
President J. H. Cor.nell, at Stillwater,
Okla.—Garber Sentinel.

'a, what Is meant by 'the unattain-
able'?" "The 'unattainable,' my boy,

"Do you pay your servants by the week
or by the month?" "Mercy! How long
do you think they stay with us? We

MEN AND MARRIAGE.
Marriage puts a man up against the realities of
life
BEATING THE OSTRICH.
So far as can be seen by the arguments in lavo
of tho new "daylight" regulation it is based upon
this postulate. That when it is agreed that tho
clocks shall be set back one or two hours, the per-
sons by whose agreement and agitation the change
is made, will not know that it lias been done.
Take the case of the man who has the habit of
sleeping till 7 o'clock in the morning, and wh
would abhor the notion of getting up at 5.
Will it make him reconciled to the break in bis
hahils when he knows that the 5 is called 7, and th
true 7 is a protempore !) o'clock?
If the deal bad not originated in England wfl
should take it to be an offshoot of that legislativ
vagary by which the setting bask of the senate clock
in the face of the legislative body is supposed ti
hoodwink all its members into the idea that tli
legislative term has not expired.
An ostrich hiding his head in the sand, is pro-
found wisdom to such devices, for the ostrich at
least blinds himself.
If the proposition were the straight forward one
that business hours, and consequently those for
meals and rising and retiring, should be
hour or two during the summer months
discussed on its merits.
Arguments both pro and con could
on that point.
But the suggestion that an entiro
rIiouIiI try to deceive itself by n bore
of which it is fully aware is a libel on public in-
telligence that coudcmns itself.

And makes or mars him.
If he takes up the burden of family life and car-
ries it "like a man," it puts new power into his life.
Ever see an Oriental woman carry a great jar of
water on her head? What power and poise and
grace in her movements! That burden does it. It
makes her figure straight and her motions supple.
And so of the family load.
lie who takes up the support of a family finds
that the doing of it keeps him straight and well
poised.
Marriage has made a shy man self-reliant, a sel-
fish man generous, an indolent man ambitious, a sell-
centered man self-sacrificing.
Marriage is the acid test.
It puts responsibility on a man's shoulders and
responsibility, rightly assumed, develops character.
Here is n man, who, unmarried, is content to live
in comparative comfort without much exertion, lie
takes life easy. 11c may have gifts, but is without
ambition. The man marries, and it begins to dawn
on him that increasing demands make a larger in-
come a necessity.
The new demand is dynamic.
The man bestirs himself. lie works hard. lie
increases his income. And in doing so he discovers
new powers in himself. Marriage has developed
him.
The dependence of a family upon him wakes
up every fiber in a manly man. He is made stronger
>n every way. And—
Aside from the financial requirements, the trials
and troubles of family life bring out in him traits of
self-denial and long suffering and devotion littl
suspected.
Especially does the birth of children in his fam-
ily draw out and give expression to all that rs
strongest and best in a husband and father.
The bachelor is not so.
He is apt to live a selfish life. He is apt to be
cold and cautious. He is apt to be heart calloused
by the hardening and repressing of what is best in
his nature.
The moral of these observations lies in the ap-
preciation of them.

THE REJUVENATION OF ITALY
Two thousand years ago the Latins
were masters of the world. Their sue
cess was their undoing. In Italy they
became effeminated by luxury or
superstition and oppression, and the
race deteriorated or was supposed to
have deteriorated, until the Latins, with
the possible exception of tne French
were considered physically Inferior
the nortnern races.
All this is now changed. In athletic
sports tne French and Italians will aver-
age with the best, in tests of strength,
agility, endurance and physical skill the
French and Italians are at the very front.
The revolution over 100 year ago changed
the type of Frenchman. Effemlnancy
gave place to vigor. Tne French of tho
present century are larger and stronger
than their ancestors.
A change -omewhat similar In its re-
sults of ihe French Revolution, though
without Its attendant horrors, came ov
Italy during tiie latter Half of the 19th
century. The people were freed from
outside control, and from Internal des-
potism and to a great extent the masses
emerged from superstition. Italy be-
came a strong constitutional government
Instead of a number of petty states op-
pressed by degenerate rulers. The
change Is showing in the physical stam-
ina of the race, and Italians are now
taking their places among the most vig-
orous of the earth's population.—Florida

| HUMOROUS JINGLE
Uncle Zacharlah Potter was a person
of renown.
Much respected for his knowledge by the
dwellers ,in his town.
He had dipped into the mystic In a
desultory way
And he dabbed in clairvoyance just tq
pass an idle day.
'sychologlcal phenomena" he didn't
understand.
But he knew about the "sperlts" and the
inner circle band."
He had seen them juggle tables and had t
a deal of faith
In the acrobatic antics of an agitated
wraith.
Twas a wild and wintry evening when
the facts I relate
Came to puzzle Zacharlah. who, en-
sconced before the grate,
Got to nodding very nicely, and had Just
begun to nap,
When he heard a noise that sounded
like a rather forceful tap
On the casement of the window In the
room across the hall
And he reaaonaljy concluded that a
ghost had come to call.
Once again It was repeated—then a
sort of sliding screech,
As of some poor soul In torment and
without the gift of speech.
Then a sound still more peculiar filled
his Inmost soul with dread,
'Twas as If a ghostly legion crossed the ,
floor with rythmic tread,
And he heard a rapping—tapping— as If
some one at the door
Craved admission to a parlor where he'd
never been before;
Then an Icy breath enwrapped him. Ail-
ing all the silent room
With a chill like emanations from the
portale of the tomb,
Ana the fitful firelight flaring till the
shadows deeper grew
Spoke a presence far more awful than
mere mortal ever knew.
e Zacharlah shivered as he felt tho
icy breath,
And hi" soul was filled with horror of
this harbinger of death,
But his study of the mystic convinced
him that a ghost
Muc h preferred a relaxation of the senses
In a host;
He believed he could relax them as the
place and time seemed ripe,
So he tried—and was assisted with a
piece of leaden pipe!
His success cannot he doubted—when he
wakened from his swoons,
Zachariah's ghost had vanished with tho
family's silver spoons!

REGULATING AUTOMOBILES.
To the Editor State Capital:
The failure of our Oklahoma law to
specifically state tho rate of speed wlhcli
a motor must reduce In passing other
vehicles Is a grave defect, and gives rise
to the impunity with which many mo-
tors are driven past other vehicles with
absolute disregard of safety and cour-
tesy. This matter Is becoming a serious
one In our country highways, and there
is no doubt h* my mind tliat the law
must be changed to limit the speed at
passing to fifteen miles per hour. With-
out this limit specifically stated, the
difficulty of proving reckless driving will
always remain so great as to keep the
public at the mercy of the reckless
chauffeurs.
However, something might be done,
of the people, who are naturally Ig-
norant of the method of procedure to
brln* offenders to' trial, could all have
clearly brought to their minds just
how to proceed to punish an offender.
I can conceive nothing more helpful
to the public than to use the wide clr-
culatlon of your paper for the dissem-
ination among the people of this knowl.
edge how to organize In each village
the machinery for quickly arresting and
trying those drivers who scream through
our villages without reducing speed as
they pass other persons. And further,
you can confer no greater benefit Mian
agitating to have our present law Chang-
i fl/t compe. the ""tors to reduce speed
vew,. nn lSM an hour on Passing othet
vehicles. Then It would be possible to
easily convict offenders.
1 hope such a campaign may be un-
rlertsken at the proper time and to thai
purpose It would give me much pleasure
t* liberally contribute. My views are nol
dictated by hostility to motors, for I am
a motorist of long standing, and bellev,
I represent the view. a„ mo(or„„;
