A road, for general purposes is as
:ood only as the worst section of
t. ti is like a chain in this re-
pect. This idea is beginning to
ake root elsewhere and should re-
eive the earnest consideration of
jood roads builders in Arkansas
.nd Oklahoma. It has become the
undamental declaration and aim of
he Ohio Good Roads Association,
rom whose constitution the follow-
ng is taken:
We urge the adoption of a
comprehensive and efficient plnn
of administration that will im-
prove, maintain and unify as
one complete system the public
thoroughfares of the country,
to the end that we may secure
a national highway system, a
state highway system and a
township highway system, each
a distinct unit yet all integral
factors of a complete system of
Good Roads everywhere.
Here are the needs of the good
•oads movement in America stated
ts Buccintly as is possible to state
hem. Unless there be at least a
jtate plan all the work done within
iuch limits must of necessity be
aulty and fail in the most impor-
ant lactor of continuity and uni-
'ormity. Otherwise the money and
effort expended will produce a
t>atchwork result that will not be
creditable to the people of the state
Qor best serve them.
The great need, as the Ohio con-
stitution sets forth, is a compre-
hensive plan of administration and
operation whereby the work in dis-
tricts, townships and counties and
the whole state shall be related
kansas a state supported agency
capable of correlating all this scat-
tered effort but, as we understand
it, it is without authority to enforce
any decree or general plan. It
merely can offer its services in the
planning and engineering of roads,
leaving the various local and county
agencies free to accept or not as
they choose.
It would seem that the legisla-
ture at its next assembling, might
well be asked to create and invest
with sufficient authority in the
premises a state highway commis-
sion.—Fort Smith Times-Record.
As an evidence that any kind of
a chicken will generally come hom
to roost it will be noticed that
Muskogee is the chief promoter of
the proposition to refer the bill
appropriating money to begin the
building of the state capital at Ok-
lahoma City. The people of the lat-
ter city fought and practically
emasculated the Muskogee Fair bill,
and Muskogee Is striking back in a
most vulnerable way. If the bill is
referred it will at least postpone
any present activity in building the
capitol until after next year'B gen-
eral election, and if the referendum
carries it wipes out the appropria-
tion for good and all, and the whole
matter will then come up at the
legislative session in 1915. It may
result in having the location and
the whole matter referred to the
people at a future election.
The retirement of Walter Fergu-
son as president, and Roy Oakes as
secretary of the Panama-Pacific Ex-
position Fund is rather mysterious,
and leaves people guessing. The
boys had put on a good strong ad-
rtising stunt, had selected some
enterprising county vice presidents
and appeared to have the movement
the high road to success. A.
R. Turner, who succeeds Oakes as
secretary, is also a live one, and
promises to put plenty of ginger
into the work. It is no easy job
to raise fifty thousand dollars in
Oklahoma right now for any pur-
pose, and it will take work.
hearted candidate from out in the
sticks trails into the metropolis, the
"bunch" will load him up on taffy
and hot air until he thinks he has a
walk-away and could even beat
Woodrow Wilson as a vote getter.
The funny part of this is that the
candidate gets all these glad things
hung unto him gratis. Time was
when he'd had to call up several
rounds to secure such an ovation.
The world must be getting better
and more generous, but it may be
just an overflow of sympathy called
out by the drouth and short crops.
The special edition of the Lincoln
County Herald, published at Meeker,
by Herbert C. Brunt, is a credit to
its editor and most of all to the
enterprising merchants and business
men of our thriving neighbor on the
north. It takes nerve, enterprise
and energy to get up such an edi-
tion at any time, and in off years
like this one this quality of news-
paper enterprise bespeaks both a
live town and hustling editor. We
hope the Herald and Meeker will
realize substantial returns for their
progressiveness and public spirit.
One trouble with the weather man
in Oklahoma is that he gives us our
sunshine and our cloudy weather in
allopathic doses. A few units now.
of the excess of caloric handed to
us in July and August would help
not only the newly-sown turnip
crop, but would be appreciated by
the man who is trying to get along
with his summer underwear for an-
other month.
TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 16, 1*1
Judge Kendrick was looked upon as
a candidate for attorney general
during the legislative session, but
it is probable that his change of
residence means his withdrawal
from the contest.
8hawnee city schools opened yes-
terday with a maximum attendance
and everything in shape for a suc-
cessful nine months term. No city
in the state surpasses, and few
equal, Shawnee in the excellence
of its schools.
A visit to the Shawnee fair will
convince the most skeptical that
Pottawatomie County is the "Egypt"
of Oklahoma. The corn, kafir and
milo exhibits are worth going sev- interested i
eral miles to see.
Exhfbltors and breeders of the high-
est grade of Standard bred and draft
and Raddle horees will exhibit their
•tock at the New State Fair and con-
test in the show ring. A thorough
Inspection of the cattle, sheep, swine
and poultry exhibits will be a treat
U) those interested In better bred
■tock and more of it, and an education
to the farmers and stock raisers.
All of the space in the Merchants'
Building, in which the wholesale and
retail merchants will exhibit their
wares to the visitors of the Fair has
already been engaged and one win be
repaid by a visit to this department.
In the Implement and Machinery
department there will be exhibited the
late t improvements in all lines and
the most la saving farm machinery
will be on . xhibltion. To any one

ment will amply repay them.

and Live Stock Exposition at the New-
State Fair at Muskogee, Okla., the
w eek of October 6th to 11th, 1913.
The management of the New State
Fair have been working incessantly
since the close of the Fair last Octo-
ber, in preparing for the visitors to
the Fair of 1913, the greatest Fair and
Live Stock and Agricultural Exposi-
tion ever given In the southwest.
Since the closing of the last Fair
the grounds have been Improved and
Improvements of many kinds have
been made preparing for the Fair of
1913. With the prospects for1 the
most abundant crops and business in
all commercial lines Improving and a
general feeling of prosperity over the
country, every thing points to the
largest attendance at the New State
Fair ever held in the State of Okla-
homa.
In the speed ring department the
Association is offering some J17,500.00

and highest class of race horses are
entered at Muskogee, for these events.
With 425 of the best horses in the
country entered ih these events the
contests are sure to be fast and fur-
ious. In addition to the above num-
ber of harness horses there will be
gathered at the track to contest for
the liberal purses offered In the run-
press dispatch. Blng ™ce* and ,he fastest thorough-
breds in the country will take part.
aeh, which cannot be regulated
until you remove the cause. It
isn't your stomach's fault. Your
stomach is as good as any.
Try Cascarets; they immediately
cleanse the stomach, remove the
sour, undigested and fermenting
food and foul gases: take the ex-
cess bile from the liver and carry
off the constipated waste matter
and poison from the bowels. Then
your stomach trouble is ended. A
t'ascaret to-night wfll straighten
you out by morning—a 10-cent box
from any drug store will keep your
stomach sweet; liver and bowels
regular for months. Don't forget
the children—their little Insldes
need a good, gentle cleansing, too.
THE McNARY CASE.
Judge Hal Johnson Monday held
that in the case of W. H. McNary
who was charged with violating the
prohibition naw by acting as agent
for several brewing and distillery
companies of Kansas City, Mo., com-
mitted and ordered McNary dis-
charged.
L. W. Moody and family returned

of Oklahoma City, coming home
finally behind a team of mules.

Connie Mack—Cornelius McGilll-
cuddy—manager of the Athletics of
Philadelphia, sometimes called the
greatest baseball club the game has
known, will begin his fight within
a few weeks for a fourth world's
championship. There isn't much
doubt now that the Athletics will
win the pennant in the American
League, and there is every likeli-
hood that the Giants will win the
pennant in the National League.
