HOT TIP ON HAiRMON.
The tip has been brought back by
Oklahoma democrats who have been in
the east recently that Governor Judson
Harmon of Ohio will have the backing of
the democratic national organization In
the presidential fight next year, which
has caused a perceptible rise in the Har-
mon stock in Oklahoma. The backers
of the Harmon boom say that while Wil-
son's ideas are all right, Harmon would
have the better chance of success. They
point to the fact that he has already
shown thi f he could beat Taft In Ohio,
and say that the rest should be easy

ing In the superior court. She says that
they were marrrled here on November
29, 1910, and went from here to Kansas

paid her board She also alleges that he
treated her with great enmity, called her
vile names and made numberless un-
founded accusations against her. He
would neither send her money to come
to Kansas City, nor return to Oklahoma
City, so she had to worlc and earn her

KIOWA FARMERS
DO NOT NEED AID
The people of Roosevelt, in Kiowa
county, are inclined to resent the action
of parties who have circulated petitions
to secure aid from other parts of the
country, and claim that while there are
of course some people who are In bad
shape financially, the conditions do not
Justify the asking of outside aid. In re-
gard to the matter. C. G. Sims, presi-
dent of the board of trustees of Roose-
velt, says:
"The attention of the business men of
Roosevelt has been attracted In the mat-
ter of some people who have been circu-
lating petitions to secure signers for the
purpose of asking aid from other portions
of the country, also setting fourth the
needy circumstances of people In this
vicinity. While the season has been dry
and some crops have severely suffered,
we f ei that the conditions are as good
at this time of the year as they were
last year, the recent rains almost Insure
a fair cotton crop, and with a little rain
later on a great deal of feed stuff will
he raised. While there is a ' lass of
people who are in rather poor financial
circumstances, we do not f*el that r he
conditions Justify at all asking outside
aid."
