markets, but we believe that
with most commodities the local
dealer only gets a fair profit on
his goods. This is a subject that
has two sides to it, as all ques-
tions have, and we print this
letter that both sides may have
a hearing. We will be more
than glad to have an answer to
Mr, Huston's statement for our]
next issue from any of the local
dealers.

Editor State Journal:
In your issue of September 29,
you say: "Every dollar expended
with your own citizens will help

churches and public institu-
tions." I must confess I am from
order houses; he only thought
there were too many retail
dealers here living off the farm-
er; that there were so many
they had to make exorbitant
profits which, in the present
hard times, the farmer cannot af-
ford to pay.

Maine May Sail Under Own Steam.
Oct. 4 —An examination of the
after section of the battleship
Maine, comprising about one-
third the full length of the ship,
has removed all doubt from the
minds of the engineers in charge
of raising the vessel of the feasi-
bility of building a bulkhead in
it and floating it out of the coff-
erdam. Consequently the filling
of the bulkhead will be started
as soon as the material is re-
ceived from the n^rth.
There still is a possibility that
the engines of the Maine are
in such condition that they can
be restored to service and with
temporary boilers permit of the
wreck proceeding out of the
harbor under her own steam.
This course probably will not be
adopted, however, on account of
the expense involved.
The next two months will
probably be devoted to a contin-
uation of the gas blasting of the
shattered portions of tlie hull
from which more bodies may be
recovered. A portion of one of
the magazines is now visible,
but its condition does not war-
rant a conjecture regarding the
character of the explosion which
sunk the Maine.
Biliousness is due to a disord-
ered condition of the stomach.
Chamberlain's Tablets are essen-
tially a stomach medicine, in-
tended especially to act on that
organ; to cleanse it, strengthen
it, tone and invigoraie it, to reg-
ulate the liver and to banish
biliousness positively and effect
ually. For sale by all dealers.
Whether your means are limit-
ed or not, use Pride of Perry

Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Perry
F. Henry, September 30, 1911,
a baby boy.
The condition of Mrs. Fair-
child, who was stricken with
paralysis several weeks ago, re-
mains about the same, with very
little change for the better.
Mr. Baty secured the contract
for putting in the concrete walk
for the Christian church. The
walk will be put in at once and
will cost about $75, most of
which has been subscribed.
Mrs. Caroline Moore, of Hard-
in, Missouri, and her sister, Mrs.
Charlotte James, of Sherwin
Junction, Kansas, and her little
granddaughter, Inez, left on the
early train Monday for their
homes, after a three weeks' vis-
it with their sister, Mrs. M. J.
Belless, and other relatives.
Mrs. Solomon Pfeiffer, who
has been spending the summer
with relatives in Nebraska, re-
turned to Oklahoma the last of
the week, very much benefitted
by her stay in the north. The
extremely hot weather that pre-
vails in Oklahoma during the
summer months is very detri-
mental to Mrs. Pfeiffer's health
and it is necessary for her to
seek a climate where the heat is
not so severe. Mrs. Pfeiffer's
many friends are greatly pleased
to see her return here. She
brought back with her specimens
of the apples raised in Nebraska
in a dry year, and left some
samples with The State Journal
folks which are very fine, and
for which we are very grateful.
