Hugo a pennant winner. The Dal-
las News of recent date gave Hugo
the title "pennant contender," and
we had best live up to the title. The
local club will enter on its second
season with all the spirit that can
be given it. Every soul in Hugo,
except a few growlers who knock
on all goodthings, are real fans and
would miss their dinner to see Hugo
win a victory.
We would be very glad to have an
exhibition game in Hugo, and wel-

We are in receipt of a copy of the
Oklahoma Law Journal, dated Jan.
14. 1914, from which we copy the
following complimentary article to
Mr. I. L. Strange of this city:
The New Twenty-Seventh Judicial
District: In this district the cam-
paign for distrct judge has com.
menced. It is known that the able
Judge Hardy is an aspirant to the
Supreme bench, and that a new man
is to be elected. The candidates out
are C. E. Dudley of Antlers. I. L.
Strange of Hugo, and G. M. Barrett
of Idabel; all are good men. How-
ever, at present, in our rounds this
month, we found that Mr. Strange
is in the lead; not only in his home
county but in the other two also. He
seems to have few enemies. He has
had some good local practice and
successfully conducted a number of
<ase« through the Supreme Court.
He is spoken of as a conscientious,
sober man of integrity—a man with
a clean record.

It is further ordered that a copy
of this order be published for two
successive weeks in The Choctaw
Herald of Hugo, Oklahoma.
