Two days more to see the State Fair. You had better hurry.
Prediction: Next Monday the political pot will begin to boil.
()n last Friday the State Fair Association entertained the editors
from the papers over the state . It was a big day for the visiting
newspaper men. They took in the fair, the packing houses, tin
capitol site, and finished up with a banquet at the l.ee-l luckins m
the evening. Most all of them were here and expressed themselves
as well pleased with the hospitality oi the Capital City. Come
again, boys!
When the members of a political party of which he is a member
nominates a man without opposition after he has served one tern), it
is a pretty good recommendation for his re-election to the office he
has so satisfactorily filled. This is the position occupied by Judge
lohn H. Hayson, Judge of the County Court, before the voters of
the county this fall. Judge Hayson is accepted by the people gener-
ally as one of the cleanest, safest, and universally popular officials
that has ever adorned a bench in < )klahoma county. Throughout the
entire county his worth is attested by the class of men w ho are sup-
porting him for re-election regardless of the voter's political beliefs.

ALL THE TIME
The election of a county attorney this fall for < Jklahonta county
has more meaning to the taxpayers than that of all other officers
to be chosen, because this official enters upon his duties at a time
when a capable lawyer and determined man will find the duties no
child's play. No man in the county for a moment questions the
qualifications of Al. J. Jennings for this important duty. IIis tri
umphant nomination in spite of the united opposition of all the
crooked elements in the county, has sounded the signal of confidence
among the masses,-and the best people throughout the county are
lining up for his election by the greatest majority ever given any
man in a general election. All that could he said and done agaiiv t_________
Mr. Jennings was put forward in the primary. The best-posted, well-;
to-do people of the county declare his election the most important ADVERTISE
issue today before the county. He will be elected and do his whole |

Good for Any Business.
The value of advertising to manu-
facturers as well as to merchants and
retail dealers Is well shown by re-
sults which the International Harves-
ter company has had from a recent
short advertising campaign in a num-
ber of newspapers, the staaller dailies
and weeklies having only a local clr- j
dilation, not the metropolitan papers.
So successful have been the results
in building up the sales of the Inter- j
national Harvester company’s machin-
ery that the company has undertaken
a second advertising campaign In
which more than twice as many pa
pera are to be used and double the
amount of space. The day has passed
when publicity is not an aid to build
ing up business of all sorts and a very
important aid because always profit-
able to the business when rightly
applied. Even the churches are
finding thnt display advertising In the
newspapers brings them larger con-
gregations.
