THE OKARCHE TIMES.
VOLUME XIX
OKARCHE, CANADIAN COUNTY, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY SEPTEMBNR 23, 1910
NUMBER 21
JUDGE FOGG WILL
NOT BE A CANDIDATE
Refuses to Be Entered in the
Democratic Relay Race.
Great
In a manly communication indit-
ed to the members of the Demo-
cratic County Committee, Judge
Harry Lee Fogg has announced
that he will not allow his name to
to go before the people of Cana-
dian county as a candidate for re-
election to the office of county
judge.
Ry this action, Judge Fogg has
placed himself in a position where
his friends will not be disappointed
in him. Some time before the pri-
mary election he announced public-
ly that he would not be a candi-
date to succeed himself, and on the
strength of that announcement,
thre candidates entered the race
for the office which he now so ably
tills. Two weeks ago the success-
ful candidate for the nomination j
withdrew from the race, for rea-1
sons which are so generally known
as to need no rehersal here.
The committee immediately held
a meeting and by a unanimous vote
requested Judge Fogg to fill the
gap in their ticket. So importu-
nate were the members of the com-
mittee that Judge Fogg half way
gave his consent, but after more
mature deliberation he concluded
that under the circumstances he
could not, in justice to his friends,
his party or himself, allow his name
to go upon the ticket.
BIG CIRCUS AT EL RENO
Forepaugh and Sells Bros, to Exhibit
There on Wednesday, October 5th
The Forepaugh and Sells Bros.’
Rig United Shows will in El Reno,
Wednesday, October 5th, give two
performances.
Not since the beginning of time
has an amusement enterprise so tre-
mendous in size been organized as
this one. Its magnitude is almost
beyond belief. It comes this year,
after an absence of several seasons,
with a complete new equipment
from start to finish. It cost the
management $3,200,000. Every
corner of the earth has been searched
by the foreign agents of the show
for novelties. The result is a per-
formance brim full of sensational
acts, the largest and the only com-
plete zoo in America and a three-
mile parade. This parade is a ver-
itable world’s fair and a panoramic
history of the earth from the days
before the flood up.to the last tick
of the clock.
This great circus is fifty years
old. It has always stood at the
top among all the amusement ent-
erprises of the world. This year it
returns bigger, better and more
attractive than ever. On its list of
performers there are 350 names.
These great stars have been gath-
ered from European arenas. Among
them are the three Tybell sisters,
who present a "Human Butterfly”
aerial spectacle which electrified all
Europe last winter; Karl Handly
and his company of German Acro-
bats; Paul Alvarez, of Spain, the
1 wish to thank those who have respond-
ed to my call for a settlement. Others are
invited to see me and make settlement be-
fore I see them and demand it. I am per-
fectly willing to extend the time to- those
whom it would inconvenience to settle on
the spot, but I need and must have an early
settlement. ’
Very Truly,
GEO. E. MeCOY
It is understood that another, greatest head balancer on earth;
meeting of the committee has been
called for the purpose of entering
some other candidate in the relay
race against Billy Maurer, the Re-
publican candidate for county judge.
It is stated, with what degree of
henticity we cannot say, that Edwards, the world’s strongest
Georgi Pearl, one of ib1 ■ defeated \ an, and the wonderful Alvo
the Avalons from England, the best
of all high wire artists. Capt. Webb
and his two troupes of trained
seals; Nellie Welch, of Australia,
the only woman double sumersault
equestrian in the world; Ada Bell

ylates for the nomination, has
declared with emphasis that
would not now be willing to
family of aerialists from Italy. The
he I greatest trained animal act of all
ac-1 hist ,i . !■ presented by sixfy-ine
eept a nomination that has been so
juggled around as has the Dem-
ocratic nomination for county judge
of Canadian county. But there is
still another of the "also rails" in
the contest. Whether or not he
would suffer any qualms of con-
science by allowing his name to ap-
pear on the official ballot in Novem-
horses. They appear at one time
in one,ling. There are also the
fifteev best educated elephants on
earth They perform in company
with three companies of trained
dogs.
• In the menagerie there’ are 780
wild animals. Scarcely a one of
them has ever been seen in this
her has not yet been ascertained, j country before. The menagerie
alone represents an expenditure of
a million dollars in money. When
it e. ilies to the street parade a de-
scription is impossible. The great
five pageant must be seen to he ap-
preciated. It is natural to expect
this circus, above all others, to pre-
sent lli' best open-air spectacle.
Never in its splendid history has it
displayed such extravagance as it
shows this year.
The organization now numbers
1.000 employes and has till!) horses.
It travels on a train over a mile in
length. This train is divided into
several sections. When under can-
vas the show covers ten acres of
ground. Its many tents and the
grounds are lighted with 4,000 in-
candescent lamps and arc lights.
The circus carries its own lighting
plant.
The greatest holiday of a lifetime
is near at hand. Without a doubt
many from this city and its vincin-
ity will see the newly organized
Adam Forepaugh ami Sells Bros.
The committee will perhaps inquire
into that when it gets together.
American.
A Good Position
t’an be had by ambitious young
men and ladies in the field of “Wire-
less” or Railway telegraphy. Since
the 8-hour law became effective,
and since the Wireless companies
are establishing stations through-
out the country there is a great
shortage of telegraphers. Posi-
tions pay beginners from $70 to
$00 ]H'r month; with good chance
of advancement. The National j
Telegraph Institute operates six of-
ficial institutes in America, tinder
supervision of R. R. and Wireless
Officials and places all graduates
into positions. It will pay you to
write them for full ill-tails at Mem-
phis, Tenn., Columbia, S. or
Enid, Okla.

UNKNOWN MAN IDENTIFIED *
Circumstances Tend to Prove That Htt
Was Chas. H. Garret
Woril was received Tuesday
morning by Judge Wiedey, from
Colorado Springs. Colo., which
would lead on*1 to believe that the
young man who was killed by a
train south of town two weeks ago
was Chas. H Garret, a relative of
the proprietors of the Missouri
Bridge and Iron Co.
The card which he had in his
pocket bearing the name *of the
young lady to whom the telegrams
were sent, was given him at the
home of a friend in Colorado
Springs. Two young men received
the cards at that time, with the
street address written on in pencil.
Garret being one of them. The
other young man has been heard
from, writing from Boston, Mass.
Acting on the suggestion that the
young man found here was Garret,
the laundry marks have been iden-
tified at the laundry at Colorado
Springs where lie had his laundry
work done.
According to the letter Mr. Gar-
ret was a young man of good hab-
its, an Englishman, a school teach-
er and a relative of the Garret fam-
ily of Kansas City.
