BRYAN'S VISIT TO OKLAHOMA
Mr. Bryan liaa made many
ipeeches and viaitn in Oklahoma.
Here he is rcsardod aa the
acme of all honest statesman
ship. lie ia so popular among the
rank and tile that they are wild
about him. and. if the officials of
the Btate will pardon us The Lead-
er will add that the etatehouse and
-the rank and file are alike. We
mi'htadd that even The Leader
thinks eo much of Mr. Bryan it is
hard for us to even surmise he is
aot perfect. And we can truthfully
say he is so far above the "?nR"
which tried to crucify him that he
Beems perfect.
In Oklahoma Mr. Bryan is the
master of the field lie and Gover-
nor IltiBkell are friends of many
years standing and the Governor
will admit without argument that
lie considers Mr. Bryan as the
greatest American.
Bryan has been Oklahoma's
friend. When our constitution was
being reviled by tuono who wore
dishonest and the people of other
states were in no position to judge
for themselves the great Nebras-
kan spoke witli such terrible effec-
tiveness that ho dethroned a pet
traveling candidate for White
House Jliouois; dethroned Bough
Biderism in this state and sent the
cheering message to the sous of
men that Oklahoma had a good con-
stitution and that it was worthy of
all men's attention ; and he again
defended us when called. . Surely
no man has been a better or braver
friend than Mr. Bryan has been to
us. He well knew the national ad-
ministration had sent T aft here to
destroy the Democracy. lie knew
if a defeat followed his effort to aid
that once more would he be denoun-
ced by a bitter partisan press and
knew alno that the weak would de
clare he was the cause. But straight
to the battle came Bryan. He stop
ped all the silly rot of the obstruc-
tionists who declare he hated Has-
kell by publicly declaring Haskell
was good enough for him. He whip-
ped Taft to a standstill and defied
the world to debate with cirn as to
the merits of Oklahoma's constitu-
tion. Of course we love him. We all
do. We are all for him no matter
what he wauts. He is Oklahoma's
ideal. We are not to be changed.
The statement of a correspondent
that the "machine" even will de-
clare for him approaches the ridicu-
lors. Governor Haskell is alleged t
to be the "machine" and Haskell
thinks nations rise and fall as Bry-
an rise3 and falls.so the "machine"
lias no somersault to turn.
The Leader speaks for the Dem-
ocracy of the state as to Mr. Bryan.
He is the whole souled choice of our
people. lie is our friend and
Speaker Murry spoke truly when he
declared the man was not yet born
who could keep Oklahoma from go-
ing to Bryan when needed.
Mr. Bryan is growing more popu-
lar in the east. He has stood
twelve years as a champion of ngLt
and the east has grown weary try-
ing to stand for old ideas getting
robbed by weak kneed mej preven-
ting the law being enforced. Guth-
rie Leader.
Will Begin Lecturing Tour.
Iloald Armundsen the aretlc ex-
plorer who recently made his way
through the Northwest passage has
left Christlanla for New York city
where ha will begin a lecturing tour
under the auspices of the Geographical
society.
Defies Superstition.
Defying superstition the Herald of
Slatlngton Pa. began publication as a
weekly on Friday September 13. The
first copy was taken from the press at
13 minutes before five o'clock In th
presence of 13 witnesses.
A Suit for Damages.
A Kansas farmer wanted a big suit
for damages brought against a rail-
road company because his old brindlo
cow had been run over during the
night. On questioning Lira his lawyer
couldn't find a single peg upon which
he could legitimately hang a case.
"Well" ho said I kinder thought
ye could fetch it on tho eign bein'
down. They wan't no sign 'Look out
for the cars' so I thought mebbe ye
could git 'etn on that"

TANTALUM
It has ever been the policy of tkis company to give
the most efficient service. To this end three dynamos
and two engines have been -purchased and installed
within three years. An entire incandescent street light-
ing system was sent to the scrap pile. Nearly $1000
worth of arc lamps for indoor use went the same way
and an equal amount invested in Nernst lamps with
which the largest stores in Chicago and St. Louis are
now being equipped. A year ago we introduced the
GEM lamp which represented a saving in current over
the carbon lamp then in use of 30 per cent. We can
now sup ply the TANTALUM LAMP which for the
same light takes 20 per cent less current to operate than
the GEM lamp. So far the size giving 20 candles at
two watts per candle is the only one we have been able
to get. Remember this lamp gives th same light as
the GEM requiring 50 watts per hour. The light is
white clear and agreeable.
We have 150 tons of coal stored frany gas failure
