caused much injury to the state, from

Misfortune punched you in the neck
and knocked you down and tramped
you under; will you survey the gloomy
wreck and stand around and weep, I
wonder? Your hold upon success has
slipped, and still you ought to bob
up grinning; for when a man admits
he’s whipped, he throws away his
chance of winning. I like to think
of John Paul Jones, whose ship was
split from truck to fender; the British
asked in blawsted tones, if he was
ready to surrender. The Yankee
mariner replied: “Our ship is sinking
at this writing, but don’t begin to get
off-side—for we have just begun our
fighting!” There is a motto, luckless
lad, that you should paste inside your
bonnet, when this old world seems

Oklahoma City,—For the fifth time
since statehood, and incidentally
since the organization of the corpor-
ation commission, Jack Love has been
elected chairman of that body. This
action was taken at the reorganiza-
tion of the commission Tuesday, J. H.
Hyde was renamed as secretary, the
other employes of the commission re-
maining in the same positions that
they have occupied during the past
two years.
Jack Love was elected as a corpor-
ation commissioner in 1907,* at the
first election that Oklahoma as a
state, held, and he has been on that
body, and chairman of it continually
since that time. This record is one
which is approached by no one in a
like position in the United States, the
nearest approach being that of the
chairman of the Iowa board, who
has been chairman of his body for
three successive terms.
Previous to statehood, Mr. love had
been successively a boy on the farm,
a section hand, a school teacher, a cow
boy on the vast, plains of Texas and
lastly a farmer in the territory of Ok-
lahoma. During the time that he was
working for the railroad he secured
such schooling as was possible, and
after five years of this work qualified
as a school teacher. After having won
a scholarship at the Sam Houston
State normal at Huntsville, Texas, he
conducted a high school of his own for
four years, after which he came to
Oklahoma.
Previous to the opening of the
Cherokee strip, Love was in business
at Oklahoma City for four years, but
in 1893 was appointed sheriff of
Woodward county, in which office he
maintained peace and order in a “wild
and wooly” community until caught
by a populist landslide.
Deciding to become a candidate for
corporation commission, he rented a
small office in Woodward, employed a
stenographer and, with the use of
postage stamps conducted a winning
campaign.
