L. E. Robertson shipped a carload
oi fat cattle to Oklahome City Satur-
day night.
Monday was Labor Day and was
observed throughout the state. The
bank and postoffice observed it in
Carney.
The United States Agricultural
bureau pronounces the skunk to be
one of the farmer's most valuable
friends and yet with this recommen-
dation from this high source our
farmer friends distrust his manifes-
tations of friendship at least from
the rear.
A $2,070 Hog Dead.
Ballot, the world's champion male,
owned by Coates, living north of here
died Monday from being over heat.
It seems that another hog had got
into the lot with him and had match,
ed a scrap, and he being too fleshy
for that kind of work, become too
warm and soon died.
Ballot was purchased last winter
by Rul & Coates, of T. D. Winn,
of Randolph, Mo., at the fancy price
of $2,070.00.
Mr. Coates has the sympathy of
this entire country in his big loss.—

Have you ever run across the peo-
ple who remember only the discredit-
able things they hear? There are
some such, and I only hope none of
us belong to that class. Even the
best of us have some faults. If we
hadn't we wouldn't be human. But
because our friend has one fault why
should we let that fault overshadow
all the good things? You have known
some people—isn't it usually a wom-
an?—who in a half hour s talk will
not remember to say a good word
about anyone. Little slurs and half-
heard rumors and reports that often
are not true—why should there be
the only things we can remember.
If you know such a person the wisest
thing you can do is courteously to
keep out of her way, for in her hands
your reputation is no safer than any
one else's.—-Farmers' Mail and
Breeze,
THOMAS P. GORE.
"I am deeply indebted to the tri-
umphant democracy of Oklahoma for
the high honor they have done me
and the splendid services they have
rendered me in a unanimous renom-
ination to the Senate. This nomina-
tion, is equivalent to a re-election.
I am duly grateful for this inestimable
proof of confidence and appreciation.
It is not so much to my worth or my
exertion, as to the kindly intervention
and influence of my friends through
the state and the uniformly favorable
consideration which I have received
from the enlightened colums of the
democratic press.
"I have no other ambition than to
serve the interests,promote the well-
fare and glorify the de-tiny of the
people who have so generously trust-
ed me, and the great commonwealth
which I have the honor to represent
in the highest legislative body in the
world. I am anxious at all times to
be aided and enlightened by the ad-
vice and counsel of my friends and
fellow citizens. I am leaving the
state today and shall return about
October 1st. I shall campaign the
states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, New
York, Maine, Vermont and others in
behalf of Mr. Bryan, our national
standard bearer. I join you in hope
for a triumphant election November
3rd, and then we must unite in an ef-
fort to conscript enough democrats
to fill the various offices in the coun-
try."—T. P. Gore.

So miny peanuts are eaten in this
country that the native supply is not
sufficient for the demand and about
$3,000 worth of the African nuts were
imported from Marseills in 1906 and
over $73,000 worth in 1907. The
west coast of Africa produces quan-
tities of peanut *
If everybody living got his rights,
would anything be left?
The followirg caid of thanks re-
cently appeared in a Kansas town:
"I wish to thank the city authorities
for quarantining me and my family
recently because one of the children
had the small-pox. During that time
my wife caught up with her sewing.
Being undisturbed by callers at meal
times we had three square meals a
day. As no one came and we were
not permitted to go out, we enjoyed
two week's of good long night's sleep,
and the best of all, a cousin with four
children who arrived to visit us, daw
the small-pox sign on the door and
left town so scared she will never
come back again.

There will probably be no more
political debates in Oklahoma. The
meeting at Marietta between Gov-
ernor Haskell and Dennis Flynn will
go down in history as the one time
an Oklahoma Republican was found
with a paucity of judgment and sur-
plus of egotism sufficient to prompt
him to meet a Democrat face to face
before the people.
