CONFLICT IN LAW
CAIJSIMORRY
Justices of the Peace
May Have New Dis-
tricts in July
ttiistow Okla. Juno 17. Candi-
dates for the ofllco of township Jus-
tice of thu peace are wondering how
they are going to got on the job at
thocoming election. Under a law
enacted by the legislature in 1909.
the various boards of county commis-
sioners must at their meeting the first
of July this year divido thoir various
countioa into six justice of thopeaco
districts from whichone Justice is
oloctod for each district. But candi-
dates for ofllco muRl havo filed their
petitions to havo names on the various
tickets thirty days prior to the pri-
mal and the lart day fot getting on
the ticket will have expired. Candi'
dates for the ofllco of justico havo
filed in Creek county and in other
counties as usual not knowing of
this new law.
In the event the commissioners do
as the law directs do candidnte for
justice of the poaco will be legally
qualified to goon the ticket and none
can be olected at the fbll election
u.id in this event tho board of county
commissioners will have to appoint
justices all over the county.
Under the new law the office of
justice of the peace will bo of vastly
more importance and much more at-
tractive and of sufficient scope 1n
most district to make it worth while
in the matter of pay.
"Dad" Robrech Honored.
"Dad" Robrech as he is called
by his host of friends was 70 years
o( age on June 5 and that evening
-something loss than 100 friends gath-
Jit ered to help him celebrate tho event.
Ample refreshments wsro served and
'tho erenlng was spent most enjoy-
abley. Tho host was presented with
a fine birthday cake a hat and a
handsome pipe. We havo written up
several Buch happy occasions for
"Dad" Roboch and each time our
-written wish that this good old man
might bo spared to enjoy many such
jolliJi''ations was heartfelt "Dad"
Robroch is a ploneor who has held
the esteem of his associates through
all tho vicissitudes of pioneer day8
and wo all consider him as we did
at first a man whoso friendship is to
be appreciated who wishes r.o man
ill and who lends a helping hand
whenever poMble. He Is a good man
- amongst us at.d we delight in saying
it now; words of appreciation liko
flowers are often tendered when too
late.

FOR THE LAUNDRY
Black lawns percales dimities
and other cotton fabrics that will
fade or "run" when washed should
have one tablcepoonful of turpentine
added to each pailful of water used
for washing and rinsing washing in
thin starch i.istead of in ordinary
water with soap is far the best way
as (he starch is cleansing and at tho
same time leaves the goods stiff
enough aftor rinsing and moro starch
!b not required.
If a circular flounce is ironed ac-
cording to the straight threads of tho
goods they will not sag but will
keep thoir shape. Gored breadths
should be treated in the same way.
If a tape measure is used and whon
Ironing the goods is pulled to the
required length it will retain its
'hang" properly One skilled In the
use of tho flat iron can do wonders.
MAD DOG KILLED
A mad dog was killed oy Mr. Rum-
bloy the bus man on West Broadway
thib morning. It is not thought the
dog had bitten other animals but as
this cannot be definitely known it will
be well for those owning or harbor-
ing dogs to watch tho animlals closely
for signs of hydrophobia.
Oklahoma Looks Good
Jas. N. Jones who has just re-
turned from a business trip through
New Mexico visiting Quay county
reports conditions extremely unfavor-
able owing to tho extended growth.
He said that scores of people wero
leaving their claims and going to
Kansas to secure employment in the
harvest fields in oruer to get monpy
enough to live on. Mr. Jones said:
"I traveled for miles in that country
and could see no vegetation whatever
not a bit more than can be seen nn
tho bare street. I was on the plains
when those hot winds struck us and
I want to say to you that it was hot.
Oklahoma looked awful good to me
after seeing the condition of that
country and I could not help bud not-
ice the difference when we reached
the Oklahoma line. Tho people of
Oklahoma certainly ought to feel
thankful for the excellent crop pros-
poet this year and that thev are not
in tho condition of those people in the
parts of New Mexico I visited."

as I was leaving home I received
a copy of your speech at Alva
I have read it carefully. It is a
remarkable showing. You have
with great ability and clearness
presented a record that ought to
appeal to your people. I congrat-
ulate the party on its conduct of
State affairs and you upon yonr
splendid defense of your admin-

doubt of an increased democratic

Judge B. F. Holding
Dear Sir:
We the undersigned beg leave to inform you that at a
regular meeting of the Anadarko Commercial Club held Friday
June 17th 1910 were appointed a committee to Confer with you
concerning certain assertions of graft which have appeared in
your paper from time to time in which the Commercial Club
with other corporate bodies have been charged with graft and
purposes of graft.
It is hoped therefore that we can meet you and talk over
these matters in such a manner as become gentlemen and that
thereby we may come to some mutually satisfactory conclusion
in the matter.
We stand ready to use our best endeavor to uncover what-
ever of graft if any as you charge have been in our city. We
therefore feel certain that you will answer all questions we may
be pleased to ask you with reference to statements made by your
paper; in order that we may clearly understand you.
Will you therefore please inform us when and where it
would be convenient for'you to meet with us and talk these mat-
ters over?. Respectfully Submitted

To the Rev. Edward B. Teis Rev. F. L. FarringtonMr. J.C.
Stelzner and Mr. W. F. Deitrich:
Gentlemen and Sirs:
The above communication was brought to the Democrat
office this afternoon by the Secretary of the Commercial Club
Mr. L. M. SpivejTand it is gratifying to me to know that such
dfstinguished citizens have' become interested in what the Demo-
crat has been doing and I am pleased to know that you desire to
meet me and discuss the matters that have appeared in the Dem-
ocrat and would much prefer to talk to you as private citizens
and not as representatives of the Commercial Club for the reason
I don't believe that you distinguished gentlemen endorse all the
actions of the Commercial Club.
I shall in no wise permit the Anadarko Commercial Club as it
is now organized to dictate to me the policy of the Democrat.
You address me personally. lam only one of the editors but I
say now that I endorse every article that has been written rela-
tfve to these matters by either myself or my associate in the
management of the Democrat and I am pleased to advise you in
answer to your request for a meeting with me that I believe it
would be for the general good to discuss this matter at a public
meeting where the entire citizenship may have the opportunity
of hearing the matter discussed. Suit your convenience gentle-
men as to the time of meeting to make such arrangements as you
Care to make. Yours Very Respectfully
b. f; HOLDING
Ponder Well
Keep your weather eye out these
days for the actions of these candi-
dates who aro going about tho coun
ty soliciting your support. Don't
tie yourself up to any of them at
present. There is many a slip twixt
the cup and the lip. Especially
watch the candidates for sheriff. We
have got to have a good clean man
for that office and if you see a better
man in the party other than yours
don't hositato to support him. The
time of being led about by party
strings is fast drawing to a close.
People aro getting more independent
in their voting and are voting more
for the man regardless of party
rather for a man just because he be-
longs to a certain party. ' Unless
good strong men are put up on both
tickets all the way through you will
see the worst chopped up tickets this
tall you over "saw In the county.
