Potter Palmer for nearly fifty
years one of Chlcngo's moBt promi-
nent business men died Sundny even-
ing at hla home In that city. Mr.
Palmer was tho largest taxpayer In
tho Windy city nnd was a Democrat.
Wo do hopo that Uio meeting
which proved a very successful one
which wns hold last night at tho city
hall may be tho means of Infusing
some now life In tho veins of the
Commercial club which hns been In
n dormant state for several months
Tho Commercial club Is an ngency of
much good In Ardmore nnd Its early
resurrection should be advocated.
Our people know now what they
arc gutting up against. Three days
xeunlon of Confederate veterans from
nil points In Indian Territory and our
annual anniversary nnd only two
months honor. It Is tlmo now to b:
up and doing for whllo wo can not
afford to duplicate Dallas In this mat
tor yet tho numbor of visitors wo will
have and tho entertainment nnd cour
tesy which Is duo them will glvo our
jieoplo nmplo scope to show their lib-
erality. Ardmoro does nothing by
halves; It's tho wholo hog or none
nnd na we have concluded to have
this reunion lot all tho people get to
gcther on tho work In hnud bid on
visitors a generous welcomo nnd ac
cord them nil the Hospitality In our
power.
The Ardmoro postotllco long
ngo made and passed tho rec-
ord necessary to appeal to tho
govornmont for n freo mall delivery
Ardmoro has boon promised till
boon and we want It. This brings up
the question of good sidewalks which
wo certainly will got now. It brings
up ngnln the quostlon ot houses being
uumborod plainly and correctly. Th
streets or a number of thoin nre al
ready named nnd designated. It' also
brings up the vexed quostlon ot an
all-night oloctrlc light system ovor
tho city. The most of this work hns
been attonded to In part nnd we do
think It time tho city wns making
a move to establish this free mnll de-
livery system In our midst. Postmas
ter Iledfleld cannot work alone In this
Hint tor. You and your neighbor can
nnd must assist. Tho city must look
after tho olectrlc light folks and by
nil working together tho burden will
ho lightened nnd everyone benefited
thereby

LINCOLN'S DISPATCHES.
Why Mnur of Tlicm Were Untert
From the Wnr He iiartment.
Surprise Is often expressed by very
Intelligent people thnt so large n pro-
portion of President Lincoln's most Im-
portant telegrnms nnd some of his let
ters nre doted from the war depart-
ment Instead of the executive mnuslon
nnd none of them from the navy treas
ury or other administrative bureaus.
This is generally deemed a very singu
lar fact and from It writers have
plausibly drawn the conclusion that
Lincoln personally liked tho secretary
ot war better than any ot the other
cabinet otllcers. While this Indeed ap-
pears to have been true. It does not nec
essarily so follow. He certainly held
Mr. Scwnrd In high regnrd. yet he sel
dom went to the state department
In the clrcumstnnces It was not nt nil
singular. The explanation Is easy. War
was the business of thnt time and Lin
coin's eyes were nlways bent to the
army especially when great military
events were Impending. He habitually
haunted the adjacent war department
nnd nrmy headquarters where abode
General Hulled: his military udy.lscr
tor news nnd views. Head and heart
were strenuously concentrated on the
fight wherever It might be. His fertile
brain saw too the critical points in the
gnmc oftentimes far more clearly than
some of his so called "ablest generals."
He not only wished to know what was
going on In the Held but performed his
own pnrt nobly. In tbo heat of action
or nt crucial moments his orders sug
gestions and Inquiries wero fired oil
spontaneously from wherever he might
be nt the moment nnd nt such periods
he was generally "ovcr'nt the wan. de-
partment" with Mr. Stnnton. Tha.t Is
tho chief reason why so mnuy of his
dispatches arc dated at that depart
ment nnd not because he perhaps held
Stanton In higher esteem than the sec
retary of the navy or state or treasury.

Ilecommeniilnc Coal.
A promoter of a recently discovered
coal mine In Rhode Island sent n quan
tity of tho material to Professor of
New lork university. Afterward ho
asked for a certlilcate of Its quality
whereupon the professor wrote:
To Whom It May Concern:
This Is to certify that 1 have tried this
coal In my tlrcplnccs grates and stoves
for several weeks and having dona so
can contldently recommend to all my
friends that they hurry Into the stata ot
liliodo Island on the day ot Judgment be-
ing well satisfied that It will he last por
tion or tbo cartu to burn.
