Some of the Republican papers of
this district are after Bird McGuire
for his treachery, notably the Per-
kins Journal, Senator Hickam's pa-
per that was a strong supporter of
McGuire until he went back on his
promises to the people.
Ten negroes have filed as candi-
dates for elective office in Seminole
county. Several of them are candi-
dates for re-election Eight are Re-
publican candidates—the other two
being Socialists. Seminole is anoth-
er county where the negro question
is not a "joke."
Bill Murray is in favor of buying
the segregated coal and asphalt lands
and is paying for them out of the
school funds of the state. Lee Cruce
is against this proposition and in
every speech that he has made he
has opposed it and yet Bill says that
this is not an issue. Questiou: —
What does it take to make an issue?
Senator Hale, Republican, says
that the two battleships voted by
Congress will cost Uncle Sam thirty-
six million dollars when completed.
And then the Senator went on to say
that the "Government had never
been able to build a type of battle
ship good for two years in succes-
sion." All of which means that
Uncle Sam is squandering millions
for warships that benefit nobody but
the "Steal" trust. The way to stop
it is to vote the Democratic ticket.
A wager was made between two
Fayette county farmers as to how
much a stalk of corn will grow in a
day. One of them stalk of healthy
corn, about waist high, would grow
one inch while the other wagered
that it would grow two inches. Ac-
cording a stake was driven in the
ground so that its top came even
with the top of the highest blade on
the stalk. At the same hour the
following day an examination was
made, and it was discovered that
the stalk of corn had grown just
four inches. — Hntchinson Gazette.
J. M. Gardner Candidate for Sheriff
(Paid Advertisement.)
The primary election date is al-
most here and in placing my cause
in the hands of the Democratic voters
of Lincoln county. I want to thank
my old and my new friends for their
devotion to my interests, and all th?
people for their generous treatment
and fair consideration of my candi-
dacy. I have served the Democratic
party well and faithfully here tor
seventeen years and I believe I am
entitled to this nomination at the
hands of the Democratic party, as a
mark of their appreciation of the
service I have rendered.
If I am nomtnated and elected, I
shall not only live up to the law my-
self but shall see that the other fel-
low does also. The expense of the
office shall be kept as low as possible
consistent with good business.
I shall call to my assistance as
deputys honest sober men who will
do their whole duty, in fact I shall
be guided at all times by the dictates
of a sound business policy and the
imutable principles of Justice and
good faith.
Yours Truly,
J. M. Gardner.
kvenport Gets Second Brick Plant.
Davenport, Okla., July 23.—The
Davenport Industrial company yes-
terday signed a contract with Willie
Moore, an Indiana capitalist, bind-
ing him with other Indiana parties
to install a brick plant with a daily
capacity of 100,000. Work is to be
commenced within thirty days and
pushel as rapidly as possible. The
plant when completed will represent
an investment of $160,000 and will
give steady employment to about 100
men. Common building brick will
be the principal output but the finer
qualities of brick, tile, tile roofing
and fire roofing will also be exten
sively manufactured. This makes
the second brick plant for Daven-
port, one of 30,000 daily capacity
being in course of construction and
almost completed.
It has long been contended that
the civilized nations of the world
should corral the cannibal tribes of
the Southern islands and colonize
them under the surveilance of law.
They eat missionaries for breakfast
and stray sailors for supper, and
the idea of Christianizing such
wretches in their native jungles is
propesterous. Rid the lower country
of the beasts and stop the wanton
murder and roasting of every hap-
less man who ventures there.
Lee Cruce not only believes that
the Guaranty feature of the State
Banking law is a good one but advo-
cates the eitention of this feature to
the National Bank law.

Brady B^own for Register of Deeds.
Chandler, Okla., July 25, 10.
To The Democracy of Lincoln Co:
Since I am not a candidate for any
office, and since so many of you
have sought my judgment in naming
a candidate for the office which I
hold ; one who is qualified to take up
the work as I leave it, and give the
people of the county the best service
possible, if elected, I have decided
to give out, for your consideration,
when published, my estimate of
Brady Brown, who is a candidate
for the nomination.
First, you will permit me to call
your attention to the new salary law,
which will become effective January
1st, 1911. This law provides that
Linc?ln county (if the population is
40,000) shall pay its Register of
Deeds the sum of $2200, per year
salary, if he is not able to do the
work of the office, then the board of
county commissioners shall appoint a
deputy whD shall receive a salary of
$85.00 per month, the second deputy
$75.00 and so on, the county paying
these salaries. Thus you will note
that when we elect a man to this
office who is not qualified and can not
do the work, the county is the looser,
in that extra help must be employed
because of incompetency.
Again, your Register of Deeds
should certainly be competent to pass
upon all instruments filed with him
for record, that mistakes may be in-
tercepted befor: records are made,
which will cause much trouble in
after years.
There is no better schooling along
this line than that of experience
This Mr. Brown has had, and is well
qualified to serve you as Register of
Deeds, because of such experience
I can and do cheerfully attest to his
general qualifications, his integrity
and honesty. He is deserving of
your support for the reason that he
has qualified himself for the duties
of the office by hard work. He has
asked me to do this mnch for him,
which I can most cheerfully do, for
the reasons given above, and for the
further reason, that because of the
long illness and ultimate death of
his wife, he has been and will be
unable to see many of you in person,
before the primary.
If you elect to give Bndy Brown
your support at the primary, he will
be a strong candidate in the general
election, and, if elected, will make
us a most efficient Register of Deeds.
Very truly and gratefully yours,
j. H. johnsion,
Register of Deeds.

THE LIE AND THE RESULT
Mr. Smith'* Unfortunate Experlenaa
Should Bo ■ Lesson to Other
Married Men.
It doesn't pay for a man to play
the martyr or to pretend things that
are not. A certain man in West
Somerville, whose name might b®
Smith, has a desire to be classed a*
a sporty man and a high flyer. A
neighbor, riding with him to work
in the car, made a commonplace re-
mark about the change of the fash-
ions with the advent of spring.
"Yes," sighed Smith, "this con-
founded fashion business sure makes
a dent in one's pocketbook. Now, I
dare say," and he paused, figuring
how high he dare go. "I suppose I
have spent $850 this spring for new
gowns and hats and stockings and
that sort of thing."
Smith intended the neighbor to
think he had been liberal to his
wife and the neighbor did think so.
But, unfortunately, the neighbor
told his wife and the wife told Mrs.
Smith. It so happened that Smith
had cut down his wife's allowance
for spring gewgaws because of th®
increased cost of living and tha
night after the neighbor's wife had
visited her, she had a talk with
Smith.
"It's all over," was her final word,
"unless you tell me who you spent
the $250 on. I know you spent it,
because you hadn't any left for me."
Smith and his neighbor don't speak
now.—Boston Traveler.
