HOW EDITORS GET RICH
An Illinois editor began his business career 25 years
ago with only 15 cents, and Is now rated at $100,000.
Thl« vast accumulation ol wealth was made possible by his
frugality, strict attention to business, hard and incessant
work, and the lact that a rich uncle died leaving nlm
$99.998.54.—Byron Williams.

The American Protective League with offices or
Wall Street has openend up its campaign for this year and
is flooding the country with protective tariff literature
They especially want to get hold of the "first voters.'
This league sees Its impending doom and seeks to save
Itself by appealing to the young men who will this year cast
their first ballots. They also want to know the politics of
the parents and hope thus to appeal to the prejudices of
those who have never had an opportunity to study the
question. But the first voters will not be tiicked In this
manner. A wlde-a-wake democratic press will have some-
thing to say along this lioe.
Former Secretary of the Treasury, Leslie M. Shaw,
has come out for J. Plerpont Morgant for President on the
Republican ricket. Now won't that hold you for a while?
What does Wall Street want anyhow? It has the Senate,
a good representation In the house and a lacky as Secre-
tary of the Treasury. Now give "The Street'1 the Presl-
cency and it will own the earth In a fortnight, have a mort-
gage on the moon, a controlling interest In the Sun and a
stock company organized to make Heaven a private park
and turn Hell Into a winter resort. (The latter would'nt be
so bad). Yes, boost Morgan for President, and John D
Rockefeller for Secretaryof the Treasury, H. H. Rogers
Secretary of State' Tom W. Lawson Secretary of War,
H. H. Harrlman Secretary of Commere and Labor, John
J. Hill Secretary of the Interior. Get busy now and let's
do ourselves to a brown turn and jump Into space so we
wont be In the way of these "Captains of Industry," "High
Financiers" "Financial Giants" etc, etc, etc—By all
means get out of the way and let Wall Street have a
chance. The Bible tells us that "The Esrth Is the Lord's,
and the fullness thereof" but you know that was written
many years before the days of Morgan, Rockefeller, Har-
tlrr.an et at, and time works wonders sometimes.
But the strange part of it is that Mr. Shaw, The Hon-
orable Leslie M. Shaw would have the nerve to insult a
free people by proposing such a thing- It's trifling, dis-
gusting, nauseating. Don't do it again Leslie.

The proposition now under consideration to establish
an Auto Stage Detween this cltv and the Britton end of
the Inter urban certainly looks feasable. The best that
can possibly be done toward extending the Inter urban will
leave us 'til early fall with very poor accomodations for
Oklahoma City if the Santa Fe insists In carrying out their
present program. An Auto Stage scheduled to meet cars
at Britton at certain hours during the day should be a pay-
ing proposition during the spring and summer. With cars
running into Britton by the first of next week, It Is time
now to get busy on this proposition and see if it cannot be
pushed thro',

And now comes the report that Mrs. Cornelius Van-
derbilt Is to marry some title to help dispose of her mil-
lions, Isn't that enough to make old Cornelius turn over
in his grave? And what would the old Comodore say?
The remarks of the first Wan Der Bilt to land on these
shores might be Interesting also. Mrs. Cornelius ought at
least have mercy on a long suffering public and at least
postpone her marriage until we get so we can pronounce
Gladys' nev name

An interesting Interview was re-
cently obtained with L. T. Cooper, the
young man whose theory and medi-
cines have created such a sensation
i during the past year.
Mr. Cooper, In speaking of the re-
markable success of his medicine, had
this to say on the subject: "Mv medi-
cine regulates the stomach. That is
why It is successful. The human stom-
ach today has become degenerate, and
is the cause for most ill health. In
the horse, the dog, and the wild ani-
mals generally, you see no nerve ex-
haustion, no chronic debility. They
are not shut up day after day with
practically no exercise, and they are
not able to stuff themselves with food
when their bodies have not had enough
work to justify it. The human race
has been doing this for ye^rs, and
look at the result—half the people are
complaining of poor health, not real
illness—just a half-sick, tired, droopy
feeling. They don't really know what
Is the matter with them.
"I know that all the trouble Is
caused by weak, overworked stom-
achs. I have proved this with my
medicine to many thousands of peo-
ple in most of the leading cities of
this country. I expect to do the same
thing in Europe next year. This is
the real reason for the demand for
my preparation."
Among those who have recently
been converted to Cooper's theory Is
Mr. Monroe Brown of 8 Hancock
Street, Winchester, Mass. Mr. Drown
tW8 tills to (jay y£ Ilia cSKTlciKO Willi
the new medicine: "For over seven
years I suffered with catarrh of the
stomach, and for the past year I was
lame with rheumatism. I attributed
this to my stomach trouble, as my cir-
culation was very poor. What food I
ate would turn to gas almost at once.
I would have a sensation of bloating,
and would have to belch frequently
to relieve this. My heart also became
affected, and I would suddenly become
dizzy and have palpitations. I was
tired and dull and despondent at all
times. I lost a great deal of flesh, and
was nervous and depressed. This went
on for over seven years, although I
spent hundreds of dollars trying to
get relief.
"When Cooper was in Boston I
heard a good deal about his ideas on
stomach trouble. Next, one or two
friends told me thut his medicines bad
greatly helped them. I purchased
some of the New Discovery medicine,
loday I am perfectly well; I sleep llko
a boy, can eat anything and have no
rheumatism or heart trouble. I no
longer have any gas on my stomach,
and feel as I did years ago. No one
could be moro astonished by these
facts than myself. They are remark-
able, but true. This is indeed a won-
derful medicine.'1
The Cooper preparations have been
more widely sold and discussed since
being Introduced than anything of the
kind ever before sold by druggists. We
sell them and explain their nature,
