C. E. CASTLE of Wa|on«r
In Justice Supreme Court Tea turn
To those who think and vote
from sense of patriotic right and
principle, ss democrats do and
will do in the coming primary
with peculiar and becoming
pride and patriotism, the candi-
dacy of Oi E. Castle fur Supreme
Judge is appealing with winning
effect. He feels that democrats
are approaching this el iction
with fair and open ininda, like a
Jury in court, to learn and know
the facts in the case, before the
verdict Is rendered August 6th
That although some uampaigns
have been launched a long time,
and heralded far and wide, and
bar endorsements for long term
judges have been printed and re-
printed until the plates are
worn, the people, the rank aud
file democrats, are yet to be
heard from on election day It
Is not the case of the early bird,
but of the hungry worm, out
early, at the wrong time His
stirring platform is worth read-
ing and rereading. He calls on
democrats to stand by the time
tried and time honored customs
and principles of democracy at
this juncture, then when our
boys over there come home they
will find a party so cleanly and
purely democratic that no purg-
ing of third termers and life
tenure judges ensconsed In of-
fice will be demanded. From
his platform the time is ripe
now to rid the party of third
termers and politician judges
whose tenacity for holding on
in office is equalled only by their
first hankering and knack to
get In, and who do not seem to
know the way out.
He says. The destiny of this
republic is in the hands of
democratic voters. That the
hope of democracy Is in keep-
ing the door of opportunity open,
and keeping the door into official
position so it swings freely both
In and out. His clear, strong
call to democrats In a master-
ful way unifies party service
and patriotic duty: "Keep the
home fires burning till the boys
come home."

J. L. Lyon Has Made Good His Campaign Fledge
In the beginning of this campaign for State Treasurer, my pledge
was to stay in the-office, and attend to my duties in the Secretary of
State's office, and not lose oue day from the services that belonged to the
citizens of this state. 1 have made this promise good; I have not been
out of the city for campaigning one day; 1 have not been out of my of-
fice one day; I have been on the job continuously all the time. i have
been on the job through the entire administration at all times, if the
citizens of this state will nominate and elect me for. State Treasurer
they will find me serving the citizens of this stale in the same manner
that I have served them as Secretary of State.
I have not, during this campaign, tried to deceive the citizens of this
state by using, as some of my oppo-nents have done, during this time of
war, the title of "Colonel." The citizens of this state are entitled to
know that the word "Colonel" prefixed to one of Tny opponent's names
is only given by the Governor of this state, and has not been won in the
services of the state or the United States. During this campaign I have
not advertised the fact that 1 was in the Spanish-American war. I
have not advertised the fact that my wife and I have one boy at this
time at the front. I have not advertised the fact as to the amount of
War Savings Stamps, Liberty Bonds and Red Cross funds I .have sub-
scribed. These things are considered by every loyal American citizen to
be his duty, and unless these duties are performed lie is not a loyal
American citizen, and to the ordinary citizen it Is disgusting to use, as
one of my opponents has used, the prefix of "Colonel," when this term in
time of war should be sacredly guarded, and I do not think that any
loyal American citizen should use this term in a political way, especially
when our boys are now In the trenches fighting to gain tl^ title of
Candidate to succeed lliuisell its

pacity to continue as Corporation

lUl'TIORIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
OF t ITY WATER
"Colonell" honorably.
jbjriaasfi
J. L. LYON.
The following is the result of a
chemical test of the city water since
the new supply and should allay any
fears people may have of impurities
in our water, made by Prof. D. Ho-
gan Markham, of the X. E. S. N. He
aays:
"The bacteriological analysis
shows no gas hunting organisms.
This test proves the absence of dis-
ease producing (pathogenic bac-
teria), especially colon bacillis which
indicates contamination by human
feces or sewage. The bacillis cole is
the bacterium that we condemn a
water supply on.
The number of bacteria present in
one cubic centimeter of water was
2'J. This is an extremely low count.
One hundred bacteria tier c.c. is the
limit according to government
standards. There were no acid form-
ing bacteria present. This analysis
indicates that the chemical treatment
and Alteration plant at the river is
working most efficiently and that
Tahlequah is now receiving as wo
always have, a good, pure supply ot'
water.
