FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Ceo. D. Key of Lawton, democratic
candidate for attorney general at the
August primary election, is a strong
man with a clean record. He has
achieved business and professional
success. He has a keen mind, a big
heart and tine character. He has
been a steady, effective worker for
democracy all his life and is of th>>
line southern type. He has no public
record to explain away or to handicap
him. Just a young, vigorous, abte
democrat seeking honorable position
at the hands of bis party and is en-
tirely worthy of its contidence and
support.
He is Southwest Oklahoma's candi-
date. Here is democracy's strong-
j hold and if it furnishes the votes, it
i sentitled to recognition on the state
ticket.
With every reason for his nomina-
tion and none against it, no doubt
Southwest Oklahoma win give him
a tremendous vote at the pri-
mary. August 2nd. He has the
courage of his convictions, the abil-
ity to execute and a fine sense of
professional and business amenities.
He is a broad gauged man of affairs
and a lawyer of marked ability, with-
all a prince of a .ellow.

Washington, April 8—The political
wise ones are greatly chagrined on

of Mangum are going to select a day
for that purpose, and request that
every citizen clean up their premises,
and when they have done so, notify
the city celrk and he will have ar-
ranged for teams to haul away the
rubbish at the city's expense.

THAT RAINY DAT COMES
>OME PEOPLE V
San Angelo, Texas, April 12.
Every hundredth person in Tom
Green county owns an automobile.
Comparisons, although odius, make
west Texans feel ahead in the game
when the ratio of autos to the popu-
lation of London is figureu. As Lon-
don has only one auto 10 every thirty
thousand inhabitants, old fashioned
methods must be popular with u
large majority of that city.
After Chas. W. Hobbs Introduced
tne motoring fad into San Angelo a
few years ago ,the auto fever took
hold of the ranchmen in Conchoiani
with the result that many use the au-
tomobile as the sole means of trans-
portation between San Angelo and
ranches located from 23 to 100 miles
distant.
This brought about another de-
parture in the mode of communica-
tion with the smaller towns off the
railroad. The old bump-backed hack
service has been abandoned and
three auto passenger and mail lines
operate on scehdules between San
Angelo and Sterling City, Ozona ana
Honors. The natural roads in Con-
choland are excellent for motoring
anu some amazing records are
claimed by local enthusiasts. It is
asserted that land agents run their
prospectors out into the country at
a sixty-mile clip, entertaining them
all the while with thrilling tales of
early days. This is done to impress
the visitor with the accessibility of
the land to town.
They feel that he has of-
fended the Catholics and then in-
sulted the Methodists.
McGuire Negro Bill.
Congressman McGuire has left
Washington for Oklahoma in order to
mend his fences and mix a little po-
litical medicine in the gubernatorial
race, and incidentally, to see how
the people on the east side are tak
ing his effort to open up the Indian
rolls and place 10.000 negroes on tho
Indian rolls to share In the Indian
property.
Republican Rows.
The row in the republican ranks is
getting no better fast. It is war .o
the knife between the progressives
and standpatters. Confusion worse
confounded rages in Indiana, and the
president has cancelled his engage-
ment at Indianapolis because the re-
publican convention there refused to
endorse the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill,
Senator Beverage making a speecn
against it.
Dalzell Denounces Beverage.
Dalzell, Speaker Cannon's right
hand bower, boldly express the opin-
ion and belief that Indiana will go
democratic this fall. On the other
hand the insurgents will invade New
England and threaten to oust Sena-
tor Hale of Maine, and Senator Aid-,
rich of Rhode Island. N'o one in
Washington even pretends to believe
that the next house will be republi-
can.
Oklahoma's Three Moss Backs.
The three Oklahoma republican
representatives are a©ong the last
fond friends of Uncle Joe, Hon. Dick
T. Morgan, made his race promising
to vote against Cannon, not only that, , ..
