The signs of the times all
point to its being a democratic
year
The democratic party is united
from Hell’s Half Acre to Haw
river and don’t forget it!
Ottawa county will elect every
democratic county candidate be-
fore the people this year
The czar of Russia is especial-
ly fond of fish and eats cod fish
cooked in olive oil twice a day
Rotten to the core the repub-
lican leaders are on the run
They will all go to cover after
election day
It is truly a fortunate thing
for the most of us that we are
not compelled to transform our
thoughts into words
“No chain is stronger than its
weakest link” The weakest link
in the democratic chain will go
in by over 100 majority
Vote the ticket straight- Of
all years this is the one when
democrats will place the stamp
in the circle beneath the rooster
It is now the proper thing for
a gentleman who wears glasses
to remove them on greeting a
lady the same as he does his hat
Poor old Creager! Do-nothin’
Jim Davenport will have his hide
on the fence Nov 8th The peo-
ple will do nothing but defeat
Creager
Ottawa county will elect the
entire democratic ticket by ma
jorities of from 125 to 175 votes
because the ticket commends it-
self to the voters
Already more than one thou-
sand elementary schools have
been opened in Siam the coun-
try enjoying an educational boom
because of the interest of the
king
Certain well-known American
products such as garters and
hooks and eyes have become
household necessities in France
largely because of persistent and
systematic advertising
The Carter Express announces
that the land on which the town
of Kempton was situated has
been annexed to the city of Cart-
er and hereafter to be known as
North Carter This statement
follows: “We have heard of lit-
tle bergs trying to exist on differ-
ent things but this is the first
time we ever heard of a “whist-
ling post flag station’ trying to
exist on a cracker-box depot”
“A house divided against it-
self cannot stand” Torn by in-
ternal dissension— half standpat
and half progressive— is it any
wonder the people turn to the
democratic party?
At any rate Walter Wellman
had the courage to undertake it
which was a triumph in its way
Many people remembering Wal-
ter’s past performances doubted
that he would ever start
And Judge Hook is a republi-
can He is the federal judge who
enjoined this state from enforc
ing the 2-cent railroad fares By
his decision our people pay one-
third more if they ride on the
trains An injunction by a re-
publican federal judge favoring
an extortionate rate by the rail-
roads Republican newspapers and
orators are doing nothing but
recite the glorious deeds of the
G O P in the past during this
campaign They are standing on
the record of the party which
is rotten to the core Time was
when their talk was effective
but in view of their recent rec-
ord their words do not bear out
their deeds
All the dope indulged in by
republican papers concerning
Haskellism is mere twaddle
While Haskell is not a candidate
for anything and is for the en-
tire ticket At least two men
were nominated if not three
whom he wanted thrown down
but they won hands down The
democratic party endorses Has-
kell and at the same time the
democratic ticket from governor
to constable Put a handspike

Oklahoma Lands at Auction
The decision of the interior depart-
ment to sell at auction nearly 3000000
acres of Indian lands in Oklahoma the
sale beginning: in November and con
tinuing until March 1911 will present
a wonderful opportunity to bona fide
farmers desirous of purchasing good
farm lands for in the tracts to be thus
offered at public sale are some of the
richest lands in America
It was a great day for Eastern Okla-
homa when this decision was reached
by the department It means further
development ot that portion of Okla-
homa which has been retarded in
growth by non-developing ownership
of a considerable portion of the terri-
tory Aside from bringing into local cir-
culation considerable “new money’’
the lands thus disposed of will become
subject to taxation as well as develop-
ment and counties that have hitherto
lacked sufficient revenues for gdvern-
mental purposes will be relieved
More important still the cultivated
area of Oklahoma will soon expand as
a result of this sale of lands and the
state's farm production will be propor-
tionately enlarged The area of idle
lands in this state will be greatly re-
duced The following list of Indian lands will
be sold at public auction at the post-
office front in Afton at 9 o’clock a m
Nov 21st All lands named are what iB
called the surplus to be sold by J G
Wright of the Union Agency no bids
entertained for the part named There
are 33 tracts and the minimum price
is herein contained The terms are 25

Grandfather Claue Valid
Guthrie Okla Oct 26— That
the “grandfather clause” amend-
ment is not in violation of the
constitution of the state or of
the United States was held by
the supreme court in the case of
Atwater vs Hassett from Okla-
homa City The court held also
that the special procedure under
which the amendment was adopt-
ed is valid all votes not cast
against the proposition being
counted for it
The grandfather clause pro-
vides that no man shall be elig-
ible to vote whose grandfather
might not have voted and will
thus disfranchise many negroes
whose grandfathers were slaves
Bender the winnihg pitcher
of the Philadelphia team is prob-
ably not related to the family of
Benders that once inhabited Kan-
sas— although they too had
quite a reputation for striking
out men at the home plate
The standpat press warns the
voters that as the campaign
draws to a close to look out for
circulars newspaper stories and
tricks designed to deceive voters
The very fact that a thing which
would be important if true is put
out just before election indicates
that it is not true ’

Hallowe'en is the eve of All-
hallows or All Saint’s day and
comes down from the last three
festivities observed by the Druids
The Druids were a tribe of an-
cient days who were scattered
over northern Europe and their
three great festivals occurred on
May 1 the season of sowing
June 21 the time for reaping
and October 31 the harvest sea-
Ten per cent of the men open
and shut their mouths without
being able to utter a single word
and two per cent make their pro-
posals while standing on one
foot With regard to the women
on the other hand 60 per cent
sink helpless into the Mover’s
arms for whose proposal they
have been waiting 20 per cent
blush and hide their faces 1
per cent swoon away 4 per cent
are genuinely amazed 14 per
cent gaze silently into the suit-
or’s eyes and 1 per cent run
away to tell a girl friend
If the state government of
Kansas had been of the standpat
variety Bristow Murdock and
Madison and the whole progres-
sive faction would have been de-
feated Here in Oklahoma progressive
policies are dependant upon demo-
cratic successes The regulars
are in complete control of the
republican state machine ready
to do in state affairs everything
progressive republicans condemn
in the standpat control of the
Federal government
The democrats have chosen as
their leader a man of pure char-
acter of irreproachable integrity
in public and private life of ex-
perience in business affairs pru-
dent conservative who can be
relied upon to serve the people
and to fill the office of governor
with dignity and efficiency
There is not one reason why
Oklahoma should consider for a
moment the backward step that
would be involved in the triumph
of the Reactionary Republican
machine— Leader
