Howdy do. Alderman Clark!
The world loves square dealing.
even to the handling of prtie tight
returns
The city loat a good councilman in
the resignation of Alderman Hurford
of the Fifth ward, but gained a good
one in the election of Sid Clark to
till the vacancy.
Dr. J. M. Byruiu did right to re-
fuse to be pushed into the primary
fight for the democratic nomination
for the legislature. There may be
better thing sin store for him later
The bids for street paving were
closer than usual this time, and the
coutract was for only about 52.000
yards. Are the paring people get-
ting together, or are they more inlto indulge
earnest about getting the work?
A REASON FOR IT.
In his campaign for tho republican
nomination for governor, Joseph W.
McNcal has shown himself ?o be a
man of incredible endurance. He has
been traveling almost continuously
ever since last March, making from
one to two speeches a day, and while
"resting" in the intervals, has shaken
hands with thousands of persons and
talked over old times with innumera-
ble friends that ."•nine to see him In
the different towns. He has run the
gauntlet of all kinds of hotels—fioiu
the kind where a man gets sick be-
cause the living is high, to the lunch
counter whore a fried egg, n dough-
i.ut and coffee that eats the rust oft
a wire nail are recognized as first aid
to the Injured. He has slept in mov-
ing buggies, on bare floors, and in
"goose h'ar" up to his neck, the old
cowboy name for festliorbeds. He
has drank alkili water that would
loco a bullfrog, nnd been thankful
for it,
McNcal went home several days ago
to look over his correspondence at
headquarters. A friend that saw him
was astonished at his appearance. In-
stead of finding him worn out, ner-
vous and complaining of indigestion,
he saw a man tit for a prize tight.
His eyes were clear and snappy, his
skin tanned to the color of an old
buffalo robe, his appetite better than
that of a hand-cutter with an old-
fashioned threshing machine, and his
weight heavier than when he began
his campaigu. lie wasn't even tired.
"I never enjoyed anything more in
my life," said McNeal. "You know
I used to hunt buffalo in the old
days In western Oklahoma, and all
this traveling mound brings back the
old times and makes me young again.
The moment 1 touch the,bed 1 fall
asleep, and when early dawn comes
In at the window 1 am fully refreshed
and ready for the day's work. If I
had lived In a city all my life, and
done the things that make men old
just when they ought to be useful,
perhaps 1 might be calling on a doc-
tor to help me out. My only surprise
is the way my voice holds up. To
speak twice a day, usually in the
open air. where a man soon swallows
more than his allotted peck of dust,
is a strain on the throat of even a
professional speaker. As a matter of
fact, mv voice is stronger than it was
when 1 started in my campaign."
McNeal was asked what system he
followed in keepiug himself in trim.
"There is only one system I ever
heard of that Is worth talking about."
he said. "When 1 was a young man
I decided that It would be foolish for
me to cut off an arm if 1 wished to
chop wood, or a leg If I wished to
run a foot race. 1 relalied that good
nerves and good digestion were even
better than two arms and two legs.
For this reason. 1 have been temper-
ate all my life. I worked hard—and
that's a wonedrful maker of good
health—and never permitted myself
In excesses of any kind.
1 went to bed at a reasonable hour
and got up whole the morning was
There are hundreds of out of town!still fresh and the dew on the grass,

Isnt Shawnee going a little bit strong
lu the matter of paving? Where is it
goiug toetop* One might be led to
believe that the people do not fully
realise what a burden they are put-
ting upon themselves. It is true thai
paving the streets pulled Shawnee
out ot a rut, and did wonders for the
city in many ways, but the city is
now well paved, and why not let up
for a while?

The democratic county committee
yesterday raised a big howl about
the manner lu which Woods was re-
moved from the election board and
Southg;ite appointed, and declared the
action Illegal—and then endorsed
Soutbgatc for the place. Quite a
feat of political gymnastics. The
roast of the state election board Is
expected to place the Woods sup-
porters in the county, and the en-
dowment of Southgate is supposed
to siiuare his friends. And in It all
ia read a rebuke of the state admin-
istration. So there you are.
this to them: "Do not dissipate your
energy by wrong living. Work hard
for some particular. worthy purpose.
Go to bed early and get up early. He
temperate in all things. Remember
that the water that runs downstream
does not come back and that if you
want to be strong and useful far be-
yond the time when moat men In
these days are decrepit, worn out or
dead, build a dam that will store up
the waters of youth, and lu later
years you will have a reservoir of
strength aud energy that will turn a
thousand wheels under the guldauee
of your matured wisdom. For genu-
ine happiness, one day of right living
beats a thousand yeods of wild
oats.""

The second of the series of articles
under the above heading appears in
the July number of Sturm's Oklahoma
Magaiiue. It concerns Ben Cravens,
and was written by Miss Marie Ag
nes Powers, regularly on the staff of
the Magazine.
While Cravons is still alive, so far
as the public known, he has managed
to elude the officers since his pecul
iar escape from the penitentiary at
Lansing. The story of his escapes is
one ot the most Interesting of the
many outlaws of the frontier days.
The June number of the magazine
ontalned the rfist of this serle3, "Eie-
kiel Proctor," by Rogers Eubanks,
while the third ot the series will ap-
pear In August, being about "Belle
Starr," the only female who ever fig-
ured conspicuously In the Indian
Territory's early history. The story
will be by Frederic S. Barde.
