The greatest advertisement
a town can have is a good
free school. Chelsea is build-
ing one, and the time is not
far distant when it will be
famed for this one thing.
To be a true American cit-
izen to-day is one of the
proudest distinctions ever
borne by mortal man. At
peace with all the world and
the healer of wounds for oth-
er nations, our president has
won for us laurels thai will
never fade.
Cotton will never be a pay-
ing crop here, but it will be
a good idea for every farmer
to plant three or four acres
every year as a pin money in-
vestment. It will hit oftener
than it will miss and will
make good when wheat fails,
in manv instances.

As an e\idence that the
public school has been heard
of, the Commercial Thurs-
day morning received a letter
from a party at Pawhuska,
asking when it would begin,
and if there was a sufficiency
of houses in Chelsea. He
wants to move here and start
his children in school the
day it opens. This is the
way to show what a school
will do.
The president of the Uni-
ted States is the most popu-
lar man in the world to-day.
He has done more to bring
about peace between Russia
and Japan than any other in-
fluence in the world. He has
stood for a lasting friendship
between the belligerent na-
tions. and has seen his work
rewarded. Roosevelt is the
ideal American, and regard-
less of party he is being given
credit for what he is worth.
He is bigger than his party.
