'Perfect harmony prevails" is the
Journal on the G. 0. P. situation. It's
With the election bat a few weeks off it is time to begin an active?
can.paign for democracy and the constitution. Grady county must be organ- i
izhd for the fray at once. ....
Of coarse the trusts will fight Haskell for the same reason they are
fighting the constitution. They know that Haskell will enforce the 3aw
that have been made for the control of corporations.
The Kansas City Times discovers that Charley Fechheimer may be
drafted by the republicans to make the race for congress in this district.
What have the court house feiiows" to say about this?
If the democrats knew any way of making the best constitution on
earth better they would do it but no matter how near perfection the docu-
ment approached the knockers woald still knock because they don't want
etstehooi
There is no doubt that the railroad and corporation provisions in the
constitution will please the President for they are exactly the kind of laws
he has been advocating. And everybody endcrss thera except the corrupt
corporations and the political bosses who are controlled by them.
Clarence Douglass of the Muskogee Phoenix tells it in this wise:
"A Washington clerk whose knowledge of the Indian race is confined to
hi? personal acquaintance with the wooden red man used as a cigar sign
in front of the shop where he buys his cigarettes prevented the Depart-
l.ent of Commerce and Labor from sending a bevy of lady clerks into the
territories to assist in taking the census by making the statement that the
country was 'too wild.' "
"I mortgiged my home for $1000 to pay my campaign expenses" said
T. P. Gore "the blind orator of the Canadian" who won the democratic
nomination for Unite 1 Slates senator from Oklahoma. "I have spent only
$1020. and not a cent of it has gone for drinks cigars or carriages. To my
wife God bless her is due much of the credit for my success. She has been
my constant helper and adviser and by her work and help of our neighbors
who answered my correspondence is largely due my success. And more than
everything else my success is due to the prayers of my old gray-haired
mother back in Mississippi."
WHO IS JOXAS ATER?
Jonas Cook will do some of the editorial writing during the illness of
the editor of the Journal and will try to keep along the lines pursued by
Mr. Kayser. Were it otherwise he would build a fire Under a certain
d ap until the smoke would be smclled in Washington. Journal.
We can't help woneiring who Jonas is after. While he gives no ink-
ling as to theidentity of the chap we ate willing to wager a year's sub-
scription that a shot aimed at the court house would hit the mark. Go
after 'em Jonas.
fl AN APPEAL TO REASON
The si- democratic platform closes with these words: '
"We enjoin upon the advocates of democracy that they treat with es-
ptual tenpect those of our fellow citizens who by environment affiliation
or by other reasons have heretofore affiliate! with other parties and we
urge them to use only sound argument in appealing to their reason and to
me the force of courtesy and kindness in persuading them to join us in the
gnat ta-k of restoring the American people their rights to the pursuits
of happiness."
The democratic platform itself is an illustration of this method of
appeal and it it the only kind of argument that will weigh with the sensible
voter. .
It is customary with certain newspapers and political orators o "cuss"
in unqualified terms all who disagree with them and there are those who
fike to read and listen to this kind of talk; but the average voter is unin-
fluenced by it. There are always at least two sides to every question and
it if fair to assume that the man who disagrees with you is honest in his
opinion till he is proved insincere. Any argument that is to count for any-
thing muiX be backed up by reliable facts and the mere calling of names
ard the use of opprobrious epithets cannot take the place of reason.
It Is to be hoped that the cue that the makers of the democratic plat-
fomj have been given will be followed throughout the campaign in all the
arguments. "We've had too much of the graceful use of personalities
and Vilhfxalion in Ok)flW3 p.;;t; Tuw oflen inMead of gerving the pur.
po.se for which it is intended ueh "dope" reacts upon the user. You can't
ww a man by calling him names and abusing him. Let us have a straight
fight upon the issues aj. pealing to the .voters' reason. It will win where
buncombe and viilifkation fail.

The Catholics are contemplating the
building of a new church to be com-
pleted some time next .year. The lit-
tle church in use now will be moved

erected in its place. This plan was
adopted in preference to building on

thought of. The church social Thurs-

MB. f GALLS' NEW POSITION
Becomes General Agent of the Equit
able for Oklahoma.
Mr A. C. McCall formerly super-
intundent of the Oklahoma division of
the Rock Island has accepted ser-
vice with the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society of New York as their
general agent for Oklahoma. His
headquarters will be at Oklahoma City
and he expects to open his office in
the near future. His numerous
friends will be pleased that he has
returned to Oklahoma and will wel-
come him when he comes to Chickasha.
Mr. McCall and family are now in.
Fort Worth where they have been de-
tained by the serious illness cf little
Archie. He will go to Oklahoma City
as soon as the latter's illness will per
mit.
Mistake Corrected
In making announcement of the Ep
worth League lecture course for next
winter on the occasion of Senator Bob
Taylor's recent appearance at the Me-
thodist church I made an almost un-
pardonable mistake of saying that ad-
ult tickets for the course would be
sold for five dollars. This of course
was far from correct. The full course
tickets are as follows: adults $2;
children under fifteen years of aee.
75 cents; students (school or business)
1.
A committee to secure pledges are
meeting with splendid success. One
of the committee that I crsually met
today had secured pledges for forty-
five full course tickets and I am as-
sured that others are doing very well.
The committee expect to place all the
tickets in the next few days. We hope
to dispose of at least one thousand. No
money need be paid until next October.
The public is assured that the tal-
ent engaged is the best obtainable in
America. Help the young people in
their most worthy effort to present
clean and elevating entertainment for
the people.

FOOLING A CAMEL
How the Arabi Let the Animal Exhaust
It Bad Temper.
You all have heard stories about the
camel how patient and useful he is
on long. iMit journeys so that he is
often called the "ship of the desert."
But he has one very bad fault. He
likes tq "pay back." and if his driver
has Injured him in auy way be will not
rest till he lias returned the injury.
The Arabs who wander about the
deserts and so use the camel a great
deal know about this fault o his aud
have a queer way of keeping them-
selves from getting hurt.
When a driver has made his camel
angry; be first runs away out of sight.
Then choosing a place where the camel
will soon pass ho throws down some
of his clothes and fixes them so that
the heap will look like a sleeping num.
Pretty soon along comes the camel
and sees the heap. Thinking to him-
self "Now I've git him." he pounces
ou the clothes shakes them around and
tramples all over them. After he is
tired of this and has turned away 'the
driver can reappear and ride him away
without harm.
Poor silly came! I He has been iu

Carried It In Hit Head.
When four years old .Mozart Diaved
minuets' and learned music with fa-
cilily and at the nge of six he com
posed a concerto for the harpsichord
which though written strictly in nc
cordance with the principles and tech-
nic of his art was yet so overloaded
with difficulties that it could not be
played.
It is related that Mozart once han
pened to put off some music that he
naa been engaged to furnish for a
court concert so iong that he had not
time to write out the part which he
nimself was to perform.
The Emneror Joseph. wQo was of a
curious turn chanced to be in the com-
poser's studio when he asked: "Where
is your part? I do not see it among
tnese sueets of music.
"Here" responded Mozart touchinc
his forehead. St. Louis Republic.
"Hanged" and "Hung."
Perhaps the Bible has had an influ
ence In preventing many people from
distinguishing between the nses of
"hanged" aud "hung" says a London
writer. They "hanged" Human hut
the Jews in captivity also "hanged
their harps upon the willows" and in
the New Testament we read "it were
better for him that a millstone. were
hanged about his neck." If "hanged"
was Correct in either sense in the days
of the authorized version those who
are not strong upon grammar may be
subconsciously Induced to believe that
"hung" is correct in both senses cow.
But it is curious that the exclamation
"I'll be hangedl" never appears as "I'll
be hung!"
