It ban been suggested now that
congress lins adjourned that It h mem-
bora go Into regular training for tho
winter bcbbIdu.
Tho powdor that will bo burned In

Indian Territory todny would carry

Many of our merehnntB oliBorved

In forming your Judgment of a man

remember that you often boo a forty

There nro some people In Ardmoro
who hnvu mlBe4d their calling. They
think thoy know how to conduct a
newspaper better than those who
nro old l tho business. A few peo-
ple censure the Ardmorelto for pub-
lishing nn article relative to a pre-
diction that 11 Btorm would overtake
our city July -I. Tho article appeared
In tho Ibbuo of July 3. For n week or
more UiIb predicted Btorm has been
tho theme above nil of convereatlou
In our city. It had the ortect of
causing an unusual number of cyclone
policies to bo written on property In
Ardmoro. Some tew people oven loft
town to avoid bolug swept away. All
this transpired too before tho Ard-
morelto said n word about It. As a
newspaper wo aro supposed to give
tho uuwa of tho day and falling to
do bo on ft matter bo widely known
wo would havo been derelict In our
duty to tho public. Again suppose an
Impending catastrophe mich as the
recent prediction bad visited our
city and we had been ndvlsod It
would yet sat Idly by nnd without n
word of warning suffered uuo-hnlf of
tho poopln of tho town to bo swept
away how would those who re-
mained havo fell townrd us? "We
would have been classed ns murder
ers of the deopoat dye. Wo nr sorry
Indeed that soma people should have
been unnecoHsarlly 'frlghlenod but
we certainly should not be censured
on thnt account. It slipws how Im-
possible It Is for n newspaper to
please all tho people
SOUTH CAROLINA AGAIN.
Novelties In legislation nre peculiar
to South Carolina. It wai that state
that first ffave to tho world tho dlt-)
poiiBnry aysteih of regulating the sale
of liquors. Having thus throttled tho
drink demon South Carolina's states-
manship now turns to tho pistol totor
nnd deals him a fatal blow. llogln-
nlng Tuosday this law Ir In foico:
"From and after tho first day of
July 1002 it shall bo unlawful for
anyone to carry about his person
whether concoaled or not any pistol
less than twenty-two Inches long anJ
throe pounds In weight. Any viola-
Hon of this seotlon shall bo punish-
ed by a fine of not loss than $100 or
by imprisonment for not more than
thirty days and In each case of viola-
tion by a firm or a corporation It shall
forfolt tho sum of $100 to nnd for tho
use of the school fund of tho county
wherein tho violation takes place.
This section shall not nppl' to peace
olltcers In tho actual discharge of
their dutlos or to persons while on
their promises. Tho flnnB and forfc."
ures above provided for when col-
lected shall go to tho school fund of
tho county whoro tho violation oc
curred."
That Ib lo sny nny person may car
ry a plBtol but tho ulstol to bo law-
ful must not be lees thnn twenty-two
Inches In length and Its weight must
not fnll short of three poumU. This
rolatos not only to thu carrying of
pistols hut to their snlo. If tho law
Ib held to bo constitutional the bus-
IncBR of buying nnd Belling plstoln
will bo broken up In Booth Carolina.
Tho law can effect only atnto deal
ers. PIstolB of any length may bo
shipped Into tho Btalo for tho legis-
lation can not affect Interstate com-
merco. Tho pistol trado of foreign
(lenlorH will bo largely Increased by
South Cnrollnn ordera for tho man
who longs to adorn hlmsalf with n
gun Ih not 10 hnlkod by legislation.
Ho sends awny and geti what ho Is
denied thu privilege) of getting nt

It will take more effective legisla
tion than thl to circumvent the pis-
tol tutor.
Under thu new South Cnrollnn law
Tillman and Mcl.aurlu will havo to
enrry pistols two feet long when thoy
go a-gunnlng for each other.
A cltlseu of Wlchltu Kan. when
sued for n meat bill plonded that

trust comblnntluti and thnt under
tho Kansas law 11 trtist cannot Hue

good thing when It trust tho wrong

"After tho Fourth what?" ask
an uxchnngo. In this remote portion
of Clod'H greon earththe Indian Ter-
ritory whero llrecrnckers toy can-
nous and "liUBt-hoad booso" nro re

Equine Cleanliness
The horse unlike certain kinds of. men was
never a tramp. He likes to be clean. No man
should condemn a horse to poor food poor harness
or intermittent attention of any kind.
Our Brushes Sponges Curry Corribs and Ply
Nets all afford every opportunity for horse clean
liness and comfort.
