The fame of Mulhall's trade-
day is spreading and it is certain-

the way of a business bringer to

rut. Fighting our trade-day is

Rev. and Mrs. John S. Slagle
arrived in Mulhall Friday morn-
ing from Iowa. Rev. Slagle is
pastor of the local M. E. church.
He left for the north only a few
days ago, and evidently made
up his mind after he left Mulhall
that it was not good for man to
live alone, and proceeded to do
the very sensible thing of get-
ing married. Mrs. Slagle was
formerly Miss Vera Heffner of
Sheffield, Iowa. The members

Thomas Ferran was a caller
yesterday morning. He just
dropped in to place his subscrip-
tion up to 1912, and to suggest
to the editor to be a little easier,
editorially, on the democrats.
Now, Tom, we hate to see you
take this position, because it
places you in the attitude of de-
fending Haskell and the other
fellows who have attempted to
use the democratic party in Okla-
homa to further their own pol-
itical ambitions. The State Jour-
nal editor has the profoundest
respect for every good and true
democrat, that is, the kind that
sincerely believes in the doctrines
of his party as set forth by Jef-
ferson and Jackson, but we can-
not recognize Haskell and his
satellites as being exponents of
this doctrine. They are too wild-
eyed. Besides what little The
State Journal ever says by way
of criticising the acts of these
so-called democrats is mild com-
pared with what some of the
ablest democratic editors in the
state have to say along this line.
So, Friend Tom, do not take to
heart so much these little criti-
cisms. We mean nothing but
good by them, and we have as
preceptors the aforesaid demo-
ratic editors.
