JOHN J. CARNEY.
Democratic Candidate for Judge 13th
Judicial District Comprising Ok-
lahoma and Canadian
Counties.
Judge Carney Ih a West Virginian
by birth, a lawyer by profession, and
present judge of the? 13th district by
the grace of the voters of the dis-
trict and his splendid qualifications
for the position. He has fully and
amply justified every faith placed in
him, has made a most excellent jur-
ist, and deserves re-election for the
good and clean record he has made.
Judge Carney began the practice of
law at HJ1 Reno In 1804. In 1900 he
was elected county attorney of Cana-
dian county and re-elected In 1002.
He was selected as delegate to the
constitutional convention, and served
the people well in that capacity. He
was elevated to the judgshlp In 1908,
and the peop.e of Oklahoma and Can-
adian counties will ask him to con-
tinue as their Judge.
CHARLES McCAFFERTV.
Nominee of the Democratic Party for
County Treasurer.
The democrats of Oklahoma county
were content to let well enough alone.
That is why they decided to renom-
inate Charles McCafferty for treasurer
of Oklahoma county. Mr. McCafferty
has handled the money for Oklahoma
county for the past three years in a
manner not only proper, but in a way
that has proved entirely satisfactory
to the people as a whole, and this
should entitle him to a re-election.
Mr. McCafferty is well informed
as to the latest ami best methods
of handling the office, and has a very
competent corps of assistants It is
argued by Charley's friends and con-
stituents that it would not be for the
best interests of the taxpayers of the
county to place the office of treas-
urer in new and untried hands, con-
sequently they look forward to his
election with absolute confidence. He
has been a«good official and will con-
tinue to be such If chosen.
HARRY C. ADAMS.
of the Adams ISnglneertng & Blue
Printing Company, Is the democratic
nominee for county surveyor. In pre
vious Issues we have given his record
as a civil engineer a record of good
work done in his chosen calling, lie
needs no special commendation so
tar as those who know him are con-
cerned. To such as do not know him
we will say that he is fully capable
of fulfilling the duties <>r the office,
and will make an obliging and pains-
taking official, and you will be glad
you have elected him. He places
himself in your hands, satisfied to
know that you will act as your judg-
ment dictates.
JOHN P. EVANS.
Republican Candidate for State Super
intendent of Public Instruction.
We need an educator and a practi- |
cal school man at the head of our i
state educational system. Mr. Evans :
is both.
He has been In Oklahoma for t wen- j
ty years, and was educated in our j
Oklahoma institutions of learning. I
He attended the State University at !
Norman nearly four years, and he is j
a graduate of the State Normal School 1
at Alva, with a life certificate in this '
state.
His election would be both a trib- j
ute to Oklahoma schools and a just !
recognition of this man and his abil-1
lty.
I have known him personally and
well as fellow county superintendent,1
I city superintendent, normal school I
professor, in State Teachers' Associa-
tions, and as an active man for all1
| education interests while he was a
j member of the First State Legisla- j
j ture.
j He is a master teacher, an ener- j
I getic, up-to-date school man, and for !
I the sake of our schools I want to see j
him elected on Nov. X.
Verv respectfully,
MARY 1). COUCH.
Co. Supt. Okla. Co.
1st ruction of Oklahoma county, has ho
faithfully and efficiently performed
the duties of her office and has given
so gonerously of her time and energy
I to the support of everything tending
to build up and advance the Inter-
ests of the public schools of Oklaho-
ma, and
I Whereas, These same Interests de
! maud a longer tenure of office for the

portant position, hereby endorse, with-

Beer and Flowers in Germany
The Germans are a proverbially
thirsty nation. This fact has just been
strikingly illustrated in the farming
out of the various departments of a
new theater to be erected at Berlin.
The rent for the refreshment depart-
ment in this theater is $15,000 per
annum, while that for the cloakrooms
Is $10,000, for the playbills, $2,500
and for the florist, $5,000. It has been
ascertained that in a theater with
1,400 seats a thousand glasses of beer
are s61d on the average during each
performance, but that the sale of sand-
wiches and other light refreshments
is of no consequence. It is beer first
and foremost that "pays the piper," I
and after the beer the flowers. This
also is characteristic. — Montreal
Standard.
Laundry Stamped for Identifying
In foreign countries some strange
methods' are adopted for identifying
the contents of the washtub. In some
parts of France linen is defaced with
the whole name and address of the
laundry stamped upon it, and an ad-
ditional geometrical design to indicate
the owner of the property. In Bavaria
every patron of the washtub has a
number stamped in large characters
on his linen. In Bulgaria every laun-
dry has a large number of stamps en-
graved with designs, and in Russia
the laundries mark linen with threads
worked in arrow shapes. In some
Russian towns the police periodically
issue regulation for laundries.
"The great poets have done so
much to make life easier," said the
earnest young woman. "That's right,"
replied Mr. Crumrox; "if it weren't
for the great poets we'd be stumped 1
many a time for something to write
in an autograph album."

Are You a Sufferer?

elsewhere without benefit and
are skeptical does not discourage
me in the least; nearly all of my
patients tell of this same expe-
rience. I am curing these people
every day and feel sure that 1
can cure you. 1 especially solicit
these stubborn, chronic, seem-
ingly incurable cases.
.Men who realize the serious-
ness and gravity of their condi-
tion and will appreciate benefits
conferred and the lasting cure I
give come to me for free con-
sultation. 1 will then explain how
different, better, and more cura-
tive are my methods of treat-
ment than those possessed by
DR. G. P. ME HL otherB.
My special training and long years of treating all Chronic, Nervous,
Blood and other ailments of men give me many advantages over the
ordinary physician.

see me:
\
Varicocele
