Mr.. Jenkins.

The contest in the Tenth District APP
pears to be altogether one sided. Mr.
jenkins is making a thorough canvass,
however, net only in his own interest
of the state and national ticket in order
but also to make assurance doubly sure.
We hope, therefore, that everyRepubli-
can, every friend Of good government,
in the Tenth District viii vote on No
vember 3rd. One vote unrecorded is
enough to give the victory to the enemy,
SO let there be no trusting to others.

DENMAN THGAEPSON'S "OLD
HOMESTEAD.


"The Old Homestead" which will be
presented at the Grand Monday even
ing, October 26, Is a play that never
grows old. 1t belongs to the class that
is abreast with and represents the best
impulses of fine times. Its popularity
has been phenomenal, and it should
continue to be. Persons who believe
the world is growing no better will find
little to encourage them in this belief
IN THE Old Homestead" The story
Of the play can be briefly told. One of
a thousand New England homes, one
of a thousand honest farmers, one of a
thousand sons seeking great city in
search Of fortune, one OF thousand
snares entrap him. One of a thousand
tramps proves that gratitude and heart
fuiness can dwell in the heart of Il So
cial OutCast. For once in a thousand
times the prodigal returns and Joy
reigns supreme. 1t is not an unfamiliar
story, excepting in its denouement.
There are lights and shadows, smiles
and tears, JOY and sorrows in this play;
all real, all genuine. And the world is
better for such play.
The supporting company comprises
some of the best character actors now
on the stage, and with the addition of
double quartctte and a choir twenty
selected voices, it may justly be said
that this grand play has never been so
wei! presented as it Will be on its en-
gagement here.

The Man is Here-TheiEGuri is Near.

The acknowledgements of 1896 is
drawing to close The issues involved
have steadily been narrowing since they
were defined and emphasized by the
work Of the nominating conventions.
One by one the less important Ques-
tons have been eliminated or relegated
to minor position. Steadily the para
mount issue has forced itself into greater
and greater prominence. This supreme
!ssHe is the maintenance of national
honor, and of free government under
the forms of law
William Mckinley stands as tie rep
resentatiye of the right and only safe
side Of this supreme cause. More and
more ii is becoming clear that it is the
patriotic duty of every true American
to discard partyism, and to aid, so far
as in him lies, in placing this great
statesman, this brave soldier, and more
than ALI This man OF unsulled honor,
in the seat of power.
The splendid personality or Mai Nc
kinley, no less the sound principles
represented in his candidacy, has been
a potent factor in winning for him the
confidence and the love Of his country
men. The grand simplicity of his char
acter and the unquestiOned sincerity
of his convictions have permeated
the public mind. Thousands who dis
sent from the platform upon which he
stands, or from some essential portions
of it, will vote for Maj. Mckinley be-
cause they feel an Irresistible convic-
don that to vote thus is the only safe
course.
With Mckinley at the helm of state
the safety Of the nation for the next
four years will be assured. His wise
craftsmanship, steady hand, cool head
and brave heart will suffice to keep the
ship in the channel of safety. though
shoals and hidden rocks abound on
either side along the course. Though
often tried, he has never been found
wanting. He is superlatively the man
for the present crisis. The choice could
not have fallen upon one better equip
ped for the occasion than he
Day by day and hour by hour the

The Guthrie daily leader. [volume] (Guthrie, Okla.) 1893-1996, 1896-05-24

The mountain having exhibited sim
gular obstinacy in refusing to come to
Mahomet, Mahemet has decided to
40 to the mountain. Mr. Quay has
packed his RripsaclS and started for
Canton, Ohio Close observers are
practically agreed that the gripsacl
does not contain a presidential boom
or an ultimatum or a declaration OF
war. 1t is altogether likely that in
additioa to socks, collars, cuffs, hair
brush and stomach btters 1t carries a
pl ,n of capilulation, treaty Of peace
and modus viyendi for the govern.
ment of the insurgent tribes on the
Plutt reservation.

SIZE SHOULD BE HIDDEN.

Iowa is stirred from center TO cir
cumierence over question in which
the entire country ought to feel inter-
ested. Some time ago the Hawkeye
state gave contract for an allegori-
cal typical figure Of Iowa" the state
to represent feminine figure indicat-
ing that Iowa nourishes ALL" as a
universal mother Sculptor Carl Rahl-
Smith was given contract for this
contract and his work is completed.
He shows Iowa" as young matron
seated on plow. She is nude from
her waist up, and a blanket is closely
thrown across her lap, But the good
people of Des Moines are sho cked and
scandalized because the figure is not
properly draped. They demand that
the statue shall be decently clothed
before it is publicly displayed. After
an inspection of the newspaper cuts
Of the statute we are convinced that
this point is we'll taken. The figure
would look much better in bloomers or
hoop skirts. But as this would not
cover the objections from the waist up,
we believe Mrs. Iowa also should be
made to wear corsets or that horse
blanket should be gracefully thrown
over her scrawny shoulders.

There seems to be some misappre-
hension on the part Of few county
and city supe intendents and teachers
in the territory in relation to the laws
permitting eouRty uniformity of text
books.
In the act OF 1890. Establishing a
system Of public schools in the terri
tory of Oklahoma" passed by the leg.
islature aud approved by the governor,
it was provided that the territorial SUI
perintende nts Of the territory shall
constitute the territorial board OF edu.
cation, and that this board shall adopt
a uniform series OF text books for use
in the schools ia the territory. In
pursuance OF this law the territorial
board assembled at Guthrie ia Janu-
airy, 1891, and adopted a complete
series Of books, which are now gem
orally inIuse throughout the schools Of
the territory.
In the legislative session of 1898,
new laws for the regulation and sup.
port Of the common schools were
passed, and in these laws q different
