STAGE LIFE
I nion \rtors.
The proposal that actors should
become affiliated with labor unions
will probably not meet with the re-
sponse which was expected of it by
its advocates
While it ma.\ In- true that certain
persons who make their living; by
form may become affiliated with the
union idea, it is not the least prob-
able that the great majority of the
profession of entertainment is likely
to even consider such a step.
The average actor has a justifiable
blub opinion of his work lie has
faith in his genius or talent, as the
case may be; he has. furthermore,
a very dignified opinion of the man-
ner in which he conducts the sale of
those intangible goods which he has
to sell. The mere mention of affili-
ation with artisans is repugnant to
him. It seems to him to savor too
much of a low-leveling of his high
ideals, the ideals which have been
established long since by his suc-
cessful predecessors. While he ina>
admit that there are wrongs which
might be remedied iu the conduct of
the powers that be, the very last
thing which he would consider call-
ing to his aid Is the labor union.
It cannot be denied thot the labor
unions has done much to improve
conditions under which the "unar
rived" actor is working, but it is sur-
ely a very far cry from the sixteen-
shows-a-da\ man to the full fledged
"legitimate" thegpian.
Nor can It be gainsaid that affilia-
tion with labor unions would not be
of Immeasurable benefit to the
"high browed" professional. It is
quite possible that an actor could
quickly right a wrong by calling tin-
stage crew and the bill posters to his
aid. Hut the fact remains that hu-
man nature cannot well be changed,
and it is the nature of the actor to
depend upon the intrinsic value of
his own merit to help him win such
quarrels as those Into which he may,
! from time to time, become involved.
Picking 'Fill by Their TUnes.

"Employers have their own id as
about the sort of man that will lit
into a certain job," said the manager
of a local employment bureau. "Not
many days ago I sent an able bod-
ied capable looking young man
around to the office of a bin
tractor who had a position he want-
ed filled. I thought I had found
just the man for him Hut the
young man came back here disap-
pointed. and said he didn't get the
job for some reason he couldn't
figure out why.
"I called up the contractor and he
explained how it was 'The fellow
kept whistling a lot of tunes such as
'Auld Lang Syne' and The Swan-
ee River." while he was waiting to
see me, said the contractor, and I
decided that he wouldnt do. before
I even saw him. He must be a slow
moving, slow thinking man or be
would whistle livelier tunes. Send
me around a man who likes to
whistle A Hot Time' or 'Hiawatha'
and I'll take him.' .'
ELECTION LAW CONTRARY TO
BRYAN'S EXPRESSED IDEA
Republicans Will t'se This \rgii-
meiit iu Campaign Against the
Taylor-Billups Measure.
(Juthrie. Okla., March 2." . Okla-
homa democrats have discovered that
have adopted a general election
William .1. Bryan, in whose behalf
Oklahoma democracy rolled up a ma-
jority of 111.000 in the last campaign.
I pon examination of the journal
of the constitutional convention, re-
cently published, it is found that
Bryan, in a letter addressed to the
constitutional convention, condemns
the very principles that have been
placed in the Taylor-Billups general
election law passed by an almost un-
animous vote of the democrats in
both branches of the recent legisla
ture.
The letter, addressed to W. 11.
.\lurray. president of the constitu-
tional convention, was written Dec.
11, 1!H)8, and was read to the dele-
gates in open session of the conven-
tion. Upon the subject of elections
Mr. Bryan said:
Advises Fair Representation.
Elections should be scrupulously
guarded and no better security has
yet been found than a law giving
each party representation on all
election boards. The two large par-
ties ought always to be represented
land if there is a third party of any
j considerable strength, it should also
be represented.
I It is not wise to allow the domi-
i mint party to select representatives
j from the minority party or parties.
I Kach party shall have the right to
' select its own representation; in no
other way can fairness be insured. |
Where the dominant party selects the |
minority representation the selection 1
is too often made from those who are ,
only nominally members of the mi-
nority party. If the party organiza-
tions are allowed to select represen-j
tatives, the person selected will not
be bona fide members of their re- j
speetive parties, but owing to their <
allegiance to their own organizatins
they will be apt to be more trust-
worthy.
Turned Down "Peerless One."
When the general election bill was
up in the senate, Senator Emory
Brownleee of Kingfisher read this
extract from Bryan's letter to the
democratic members, using it as a
support of his argument that the new
general election uaw fathered by the
democrats of Oklahoma is unfair
and will result in corrupt practices,
it had little effect, however, on the
democrats. The republicans are now
charging that the democrats of Ok-
lahoma ha\e repudiated their erst-
while "Peerless One" and will use
this argument in the campaign that
is to be waged against the new lec-
tion law.
The new election law shows the
democratic party, which is now in
power, to select not only its own of-
ficers. but to name the election of-
ficers from the minority party with-

implement Demonstration
We have made special arrangements with the factories whose implement products we handle to exhibit and sell these products
on the first floor of our implement house. This big demonstration will begin
Thursday, March 25, and Close Saturday, April 3, '09
5.000 square feet of floor space will be used, making plenty of room for all. Each exhibit will be conducted by an able repre-
sentative from each factory and he will explain the merits of each implement exhibited. On the floor where the exhibitions
take place there will also be a range in operation, and hot biscuits and coffee will be served free to those who desire to parta e
of refreshments at any time during the day.
A Word About Out Goods
It lias always been our policy to contract with factories which produce the best of their kinds at the lowest possible price at
which they can be produced, and it is with pride that we point to our past record in that direction. We have lost sales m the
past because of not being able to meet the price of a competitor whose method was to see how cheap he could make an imple-
ment yet retain the outward appearance of a GOOD implement, and sell it on account of the cheap price. Almost always the
purchaser has found out that even then he has paid dearly for what he bought. The main object of these demonstrations will
be to PROVE that the best is cheapest, and that it pays to buy from a reliable dealer who contracts with reh;able and honest
manufacturers. For cash sales during this period on any of the implements a LIBERAL DISCOUNT wi e allowed.
We want EVERYONE to visit this big exhibit and make our store their headquarters during their stay
in Enid at the time of the great stock show. Call early for a Souvenir
