display a vory commendable
interest in the candidates
bh at visit us from time to
time wo don't think. Wo
wonder if it has over occurr
ed to nnybody that some of
those gontlemon will bQ the
first olllcials of the sta$ of
tho state of Oklahoma and
the now is the time to make
up our minds for whom wo
shall vote.
The Power of the Press
Jlon. S. M. Hutherford of
Muskogee in a private con-
versation with the editor at
tho Bryan after speaking-
gavo us some of his impres-
sions in regard to tho press
of the two territories. In
as much as they differ so
much from our own opinion
that wo aro of all businesses
at the mercy of tho public
wo think them good ouough
to editoralizo upon in pass-
ing. Mr. Jtuthorford advises us
that ho has found a surpris-
ing amount of principlo in
tho profession surprising
when considered with their
necessities and meager in-
comes. Ho finds that tho
editor almost without excep-
tion is very touchy on the
point of honor and keenly
realizes his responsibilities
to his renders. IIo says he
never insulted tho editor of
n paper by offering to buy
editorial space but has re-
ceived notes from M-voral
editors inclosing such letters
from other candidates and
from corporato concerns
with withoring comments
thereon. lie further informs
us that tho editor is after
all is said and done the man
that will deal out the oflices
to those anxious patriots of
candidates and that no one
realizes this fact more than
tho candidate himself. Mr.
Hutherford was therefore
much pleased that tho coun-
try editors as a class aro so
clean and so conscientious
as his observation shows
thorn to bo.
We confess that wo havo
received several jolts since
wo ontored tho scissor brig-
ado and that our faith in
editorial human naturo has
been several times on the
wane. Hut wo behove tho
small paper is loss likely to
be dishonest than tho big
daily because it is closer to
tho people And wo are
much gratified at urn results
of Mr. Rutherford's observa
tions and proud to think
that while as a profession
wo havo to hustle and of ton
to wondor whether wo or the
sheriff will be in possession
next month our name for
honesty and conscionco is
known and noted in tho
land.
As for tho part of Mr.
Kutherford's remarks touch-
ing the power tho fraternity
wields it seems that wo
should only bo all tho more
careful that injustice is not
done and that wo should
avoid every appearance of
insincerity.
Frank Peoples For

Wo oall attontion to tho an-
nouncomont of Frank Peoploe in

Elderly Ladles' Function.
Will Mmo. Morrl ploaso suggest
somo form of ontortalnmont for an
afternoon party of about CO olilorlr
ladlos and what should bo sorved for

ricaso holp "an anxious" hostess and
greatly obllgo a roador of your de-
partment. Well mako tho affair Informnl and
In consoquonco most cnjoynblo. I
should ask each guest to bring a bit
of needlework and a plcturo of her-
self taken at least 25 years ago. Thoso
pictures when circulated will promote
conversation and to tho person guess-
ing tho most a lltUo souvenir may bo
awarded. Then I should havo a pro-
gramme of songs and Instrumental
pieces such a3 "Flow Gently Sweet
Afton" "Mntdon's I'rnyor "Annlo

About tho mlddlo of tho afternoon
pass grnpo Julco punch mado by
flavoring grnpo Julco with lomon
