We notice but one complaint from
all over the country relative to the
awarding of the prizes, and that will
be found In our Frisco Creek cor-
respondence on another page. We
believe the committee did tlie best
it knew how for this is the only
complaint we have heard, and many
have complimented the persons
in charge of the awarding for the
good judgment and promptness dis-
played. It is a mighty difficult job
to please everybody and we trust
that this will be remembered when
the committee Is being ceusured.
The weathei prophets all over the
country are predicting a tough
winted since the big fall of snow
last week all over the north. But
none of them are in it with John
Skelly of Mineral, who announced
that we would have a bad winter
along in July. He read the sign*
and wrote the Herald to that effect.
If we should heve a hard winter
John Skellev will hearafter be the
official weather prognosticator of thr
Guymon Herald. This test will be
the one which will forever make him
solid with us or make hira lose out
for all time to come.

The Dunbar Quartet, which was
the first number of the Guymon Lec-
ture Course, was one of the best
things ever heard in fills MOtlM.
There was not a slow moment in the
whole affair and eveyone enjoyed
thf entertainment. The Dunbar*
are deserving of all the nice things
the pa|>ers say about them all over
the country
Guymon is to get a line new poBt-
offlce building in the near future.
Tin- First National bank proposes to
build a new building in the rear of
the one now occupied by the hank,
and therein will be located the post-
office. New fixtures will be added
and the Guymon postoffice will be
second to nothing in the whole sec-
tion of the southwest.
Democratic leaders are now boast-
ing of the fact that there is little or
no hope of the socialists lauding
John Shields and are attempting to
herd the socialists into the demo-
cratic party. Probably the social-
ists will not appreciate the attempt
to deliver them elsewhere than for
their own candidates, and it is a sur-
prising feature of the campaign that
representative men of the democrat-
ic party will give public of their
ability to lead socialists around by
the nose.
The Herald editor would be un-
grateful. indeed, to his host of
readers outside of Texas county,
who have watched the light In Okla-
homa, and who have been bo deeply
interested as to furnish us many
good articles on republicanism, which
we have published from time to
time, should he not mention those
courtesies. The fact that we have not
used all of them has not been be-
cause we have not wanted to, but
rather for the reason that the faclll-
t ies of even a good printing office
like the Herald is limited, and we
have felt obliged to give our readers
a little news other than politics from
week to week. Then, too, the
Herald finds that using up a ton of
print paper in a month costs to the
tune of $80 down here, and that
works pretty hard on a poor duffer's
pocket book. But we thank those
who have been interested and are
still interested, and promise thein the
best the shop affords from week to
1 week. And we are going to stay 1 v
| them until they "pay it back," if it
takes two years of telling the people
I about the rotten representatives they
t elected to safeguard their public
i affairs in Texas county.

If you think that Fulton Is going
to be elected you ought to remem-
ber that when a committee ships all
the speakers it can into a district
there is some excuse for industrlous-
ness. Politicians don't act like, the
democrats are in this instance when
they have a cinch.

Rev. McCulstion stopped at our
office one day this week and left the
parting Injunction to keep on telling
the people about this bootlegging.
He claims he can smell whisky and
count empty bottes laying all along
the road out to his home. We are
anxious to hear how the county of-
ficials and the truth factory up the
street will handle this end of It. li
will be remembered that they said
the Herald lied for even claiming
that the bootleggers were doing a
splendid and rushing business in our
town and county.
it appears that our democratic
friend. Neil S. Brown, who was al-
right with the Democrat as long ns
he was in position to throw .patron-
age to it, has fallen into bad company
In the estimation of that paper since
he dropped into this office and told
us that the county officials should
pay it back. But Mr. Brown is no
relation to Kaffir Corn John, or the
farmer name Judge Davis uses, or
any of that ilk. lie just hates to
see a democrat waddle off with a
gob of graft under the pretext of
being a representative of the "pee-
pul." He is a nian who simply
draws the line on that sort of
business.
We have heard considerable blow-
ing from democrats about the elec-
tion of Fulton. One speaker, Herod,
claimed in his speech in Guymon
Saturday night that Fulton would
win by 2,700 votes. One of our
local politicians offered to bet hint
$2,700 and Herod claimed he wasn't
looking for bets. Another republican
who has coin to spare and who has
heard of democratic bets of success
nationally, state and otherwise, of-
fered this wind jammer ten dif-
ferent bets and then offered to bet
I he wouldn't lose two of the bets,
and he couldn't get anything. One
fellow wanted to bet there wouldn't
be 35 votes difference between Taft
and Bryan and he got his $50 bluff
called before he could get out of
sight. No democrat around her" Ts
| flush with coin unless it is to bet
I that the state will go to the bow-
wows by a small majority.^ They
can see the handwriting on the wall.

J. E. Stanley Is taking several
political speakers out into Cimarron
county this week, among whom are
Hon. Chas. T. Whltaker and Judge
Jack Harris. They will tell the
people some things out there and the
way Mr. Stanley gets around in-
sures that the people out there will
hear something.
We are pleased to give the opinion
of R. A. Pontow In the matter of the
awards given at the Farmers' Insti-
tute for prizes. Mr. Pontow says he
got his prize, a half ton of coal the
day the premiums were announced,
and that he has been trying for over
1 8 months to get a prize awarded to
some live stock he bad on display
at a Hooker fair. Mr. Pontow liked
th way the Guymon people handled
the affair.
Sllved dollars will not be as plenti-
ful this year as might be imagined.
The announcement of the govern-
ment that Jones no longer "pays the
freight" on silved to any destina-
tion will cause paper money to come
into more general circulation than
ever. People in the west who hate
a big roll of dollar bills had better
get accustomed to them, for silver
will gradually work out of ciroula
tion. Judge Tyb-r says the bank
has to pay the express charges
hereafter on silver, which means that
the banks will largely order paper
money.

Good Health at Seventy-Seven.
Mra. N. J. Edward*, 1'nion City,
Teiin., write* under delta of Nov, 7,
MM, the following:
"On the 7th day of February , Ittft.
If I live, 1 willlte*cventy-*eveti years
of age. I enjoy the l>e*t of health,
thankx to Peruna, and have not had
a spell of aicknea* since 1 began using

"1 eonalder it the grandest medicine
on earth, and whenever I fuel a little | There waa nothing which seemed to do
badly a few dose* of Peruna put me right, me much good.
"I can do a* much work as I could
forty years ago. 1 think all old people,
who feel the effect*of ate, should l«ne-
flt their health by using Peruna."
Ill tlw Beat Part of Hit Life.
Mr. J. R. Prinoe, It. R. 2, Cattaraugn*.
N. Y., writes: "1 ain not very well aat-
isfled with the picture that 1 am sending
you, but when the reader look* at this
picture if he could only realise that the
original suffered for forty-five year*, the
be*tof his life, until your kind advice
and prescription cured him, he would
know from whencethese wrinkle*came.
Next mouth I shall be sixty-six years
old."
Nervous Prostration.
Mrs. Martha Avery, in Oraham St.,
Leominster, Mass., writes:
"Four years ago I had nervous pros-
tration. 1 employ (Mi several doctors.
One would say I had catarrh of the
stomach and l>owels, another nervous-
ness and another enlargement of the
liver. My stomach was in a bad shape.
"I triert other remedies, but did not
gain any fleah until 1 commenced taking
your Peruna, whl< h built me right up.
I have taken *evc :il bottle*, but have
not taken any now for aUuit *lx w eek*.
•'I am*eventy-thieeycar*old. I never
expect to l« entirely well or young
again, but I am thankful for what Pe-
runa ha* done for me."
reel* Ten Year* Younger.
Mr. Henry Mers, ibU'j We*t Franklin
St., Kvansvllle, lad., writes; "When I
first wrote to you I hail bronchial trouble
for four years, and hud tried several
doctors, but they could do me no good.
I had pain and rattling In the cheat,
cough, expectoration, especially at
night.
"1 took Perana, and cm now say that
I am entirely well. I feel ten yeara

mend Peruna to all my friends, foe
I was in bad condition.

Wm. Bratton, one of the
prominent democrats of this town,
was asked by a Herald man whether
he was going out to the democratic
pow v ow la: t Faturd; > night. He
replied that ho could stnnrt for one
democratic apeaker, but two were too
many for him.
Farmers from almost every part
of the county tell us that wheat is
looking fine this fall. When the
crop goes Into winter quarters in
good shape it always looks better
for a good crop the following year.
An unusually large acreage has been
sown this fall.
Miss Mabel Kelspr is hustling sub-
scriptions to the Laides Home
Journal and the Saturday Evening
Post In hopes of securing a scholar-
ship offered by those papers for
subscriptions solicited. This is a
worthy ambition and she should he
given the assistance of those In
Guymon who desire the papers.
Read her ad In this Issue.
Owing to the larg amount of news
matter and political news that we
want to get to our readers the
Herald is again obliged to Issue 12
pages, l.ast week we printed 31
columns of reading matter, all In
soild 8-point type. Leaded this
would mean about 44 columns, or as
much as all the papers in '.exas
county combined set for their read-
ers last week. And It was all set In
this office in less than six days for
considerable other outside composi-
tion was done.
In his speech as Cosmos, Judge
Harris said: "The election of Earle
as our representative would he ti
reflection on the Intelligence of the
people of Texaa county."
Candidate Bryan isn't saying a
word thla year about the Wllson-
< toman bill which be helped to enact
and which President Cleveland de-
nounced as "a perfldlty and dis-
honor." Can it be that Mr. Bryan
is ashamed of the only important
measure he ever helped to place on
the statute book?
If there was any way to substitute
a man on the ticket in Fulton's place
at this time there Is no doubt that
It would be done, since It has become
so publicly known that Fulton and
Haskell pull together and that Has-
kell is notorious for his connection
with the great, greedy and grasping
Standard Oil company.
There geems to be a great deal of
dissatisfaction over the selection of
the site for the new city hall building
among many of our people. The
spot selected, which is two blocks
north of the First National bank
and across the street, strikes many
ns being too far out. Many people
prefer the spot down by the Wil-
loughby hotel as being nearest the
business center and as making a
better show for the town. A peti-
tion was itasxed around town the first
of the week to have the board re-
consider Its move, but whether this
will be done Is a matter of con-
jecture.
There's Just The Right Hat for
You Here—Regina or Pocahontas
Why is it every hat you put on does not suit? Usually It is because the hat is not in har-
mony with itself. There are certain well known principles governing the harmony of colors.
Any woman will tell you that it is not every color she can wear.
On Regina hats W4 the most exquisite color harmony. Regina designers have. If seems,
mastered the secret of color blending. A Regina hat is noticable among a thousand hats—not
gaudy or obtrusive, but gentle and refined, subtle, Ingratiating.
The woman who drpsses well cannot help admire a Regina hat. They give poise and with-
out being gaudy or giddy they cause the wearer to be singled out as being in style and correctly
crowned. Regina hats are made by deft lingers, clever minds and loyal hearts. With fine ma-
terial to build of, and nothing stinted and no work spared to make them perfect It Is no wonder
they are called Regina, Queen.
You will find them on sale at the best shops in all cities a.ul larger towns throughout the
country. They have the air of the nicest and most sensible of Paris hats and the prices are within
the reach of all, running the price gamut of ijU.oO to SJl.OO.
Cut prices on all Trimmed and Pattern h«ts from October ;t<> to November It. Come curly and get
your choice.
