THE HERALD
PUBLISHED WEEKLY
C. L. NOEL, Editor and Publisher.
Subscription $i per Year
Entered as second class matter May
29, 1906, at the post office at Mountain
Park, Oklahoma, under the Act of
congress of Murch 3, 1879.
that are kicking at county
division keep on going fifty
miles to court and help the
poor officer out of a hole.
Cut her in two.
Where are your taxes spent?
Cut Kiowa county' in two
and let’s elect a new set of
grafters.
For several y’ears land has
been sold for taxes for which
the owners had receipts. We
would suggest that the county
treasurer either look after the
ofifiec or that the people elect
a competent treasurer.
How much in taxes were
collected in Kiowa county last
year, and for what was the
money used?
Taxes would not be so high
and conveniences doubled if
there were two counties instead
of one out of Kiowa.
Notice of Tax Deeds
May be placed in any legal
paper in the county by the
person issuing the notice.
No officer has any right or
authority to place it. The
Herald has a good subscrip-
tion list and will publish these
notices for the benefit of the
taxpayers for $2.00 each.
Hobart is in the extreme,
uorth part of the county^ and |
it seems a natural rendezvous j
of lhe political grafter. Cut i
the counties up.
Some of our county officers
are probably not being paid
enough salary. You fellows

ain't you ever going to tell us?
asks the critic. I mean just this:
that Billy Bryan stole the pop-
ulist platform, thunder and all,
and with his lilly-white hands
paddled out into the democratic
current and sunk the whole car-
go at St. Louis. That his hands
were lilly white up to that time
1904, as far as politics go, is an
assured fact That he reluctant-
ly relinquishet^his grasp on the
principles that he had so valiant-
ly espoused.
Thousands and thousands of
his followers expected Bryan to
remain firm right where he fal-
thred. The great west never
for one minute thought he would
waver in his virtuous mission
and become a part and parcel of
the Oligarche democratic party
of the aristocratic east. He had
to appologize to the labor voters
then and his whole campaign for
1908 will b? an “apology’ to the
laboring masses. All men of
“letters” know this, but there
may be a few that are ignorant-
ly in love with him, who may
yet think Bryan the only one.
“Thunder;” that is what I was
talk ng about. I said stole; I
will change it to appropriated, as
this is the word we use so much
now about the great men, great
monopolies, great corporations,
and great ministers, when they
take funds, homage, honor etc.,
that really belong to some one
else. I am with Mr. Bryan like
Paddy was with his flea; when
you put your thumb on him,
“Begorry, he ain’t thar.”

You Get More for Your Money
At this store for two reasons: First, we sell cheaper in Dollars and Cents. Second, we give better values in
our merchandise. Everything we sell must stand every test. We sell Courtney’s Full Vamp
Shoes because they are so much better than ordinary shoes. The reason is, they have the leather double at
the toes, which makes them keep their shape better, gives extra strengih at a very vital point, makes the shoe
warmer and helps to keep out the wet. All the other shoes that we know of have had the leather cut out from
under the tips and the tips pieced on.
DRY GOOD, NOTIONS and FURNISHINGS.
This is the best store because our selections are made with a view of handling nothing which will not make
friends for the store. We would much rather have your permanent trade and good will than to take advantage
of you in one transaction, besides, it is a pleasure to do business on the square and we are not looking for
trouble. Our styles are right and so are our prices.
.. . GROCERIES AND SUPPLIES . ..
Let us furnish your table and we know you will count us among your friends. It is an intimate relation you have
with your grocer and a great deal depends upon his judgement and honesty' when it comes to the health and
happiness of your family. Prices are never one cent higher than they have to be and in many cases not nearly
what they ought to be to insure a living profit. Try us.
A Fine and Complete Line Buggies, Wagons and Harness Always on Hand at Lowest Prices.
