The newspapers of California are TAX
ing their own fun out of their recent
legislators who passed law providing
that every printed statement which
tends to impugn the character of any
body or hold him up TO ridicule must
be signed by the writer's true name.
The way in which the San Francisco
papers go round about this law and at
the same time chuckle over their DISC
bedience is hilarious in the extreme
One OF two of the papers have made the
whole thing ridiculous by putting hcti-
tious names to every paragraph in their
columns. and others. refusing TO regard
the law at all. call loudly on the officers
of tie law to punish them. All this
shows very ciesrly that in this country
public opinion snaps its fingers at un-
lust or ridiculous laws. Up to the pres
ent time nobody has been prosecuted

standing was renewed between the
Mericles on one side and the Ash

fatally wounded. Another Keel
was badly cut and may not sur
vive. Eli Mericles and his son

coverv. A half dozen cOmbatants
were hurt. but their wounds are
not serious.

10 the AEQmOTOllcs
Crop prospects are fine since it
has quit raining. The recent wet
weather was very damaging. ev-
erything suffered except corn. Oats
are being cut and are real good;
millet looks well and will soon
ripen, potatoes are being dug and
are splendid, though no market for
them. Talk about diversification
of crops; that's well enough but it
seems there should be market for
what the farmer grows besides
cotton.

of whom mention has been made
several times in the ARDMOREITE,

Mr.. Walter Dixon of the Institute Of
Electrical Engineers in Great Britain
has been on visit to this country to
satisfy himself that all the reports
which he had read of tine amazing i'm
p-ovements made in our steel manufac-
ture were true. He has Just got back
and made his report. He confesses that
he was astounded at what he saw in
America and declares that we are 5O
years ahead of England in the use OF
electricity in manufactures Twenty
years ago nobody in his widest mood
would have ventured to predict that
before the end of this century the
Americans. instead of importing. would
be exporting iron into England and be
serious rivals of the English in all for
eign markets. What struck Mr.. Dixon
with peculiar force was the large
amount of labor that the American
workman performed as compared with
his English brother. THE American,
says Mr.. Dixon. appears TO be perfect

is a stanch believer in the survival ot

he will 90 to the wall. and hence Is al

most profound sensation.

PRESS ASSOCIATION.

Ardmore has never entertained
the Territory Press Association,
but she now has a chance to do so.
At the last session of this assocla-
ton Ardmore was selected as the
place for holding the annual ses-
sion of 1899. Correspondence is
now going on among the officers
of the association which will re-
suit in the definite selection OF a
place. and also date for holding
the meeting. Ardmore never has
failed to entertain all strangers
who enter within her walls, nor do
we fear that she will do so now.
The ARDMoREITE has been re-
ouested to make a definite answer,
stating the feeling of our people
along this line and we b, e en-
couraged the project.
Mayor Gardner will use every
effort in his power to bring the as
sociation to this place. for it is not
in the power, nor the provence OF
one newspaper to hazard such an
undertaking. But we can help,
and the ARDMOREITE will be found
more than willing with her part.
The bringing together of repre-
sentatives of the press from
every town in the Indiar
Territory will be one OF th'
best advertisement that Ardmor
ever had and ultimately be wortl
much to our people. Let us b.
all means have the Indian Terri
tory Press Association meet wit
US this fall. We can, we must. W
, will take care of them and trea
them right royalty, for they Ger
2 tainly deserve it.

Funston and the FilipinO..

Kansas is proud of Colonel Funston
nf the Twentieth Kansas volunteers,
and well she may be; almost any state
would be proud Of him. if all the re-
ports are true, and nobody has discred-
tied them. Colonel Funston has proved
himself fighter from the word go. He
takes to it as naturally as duck takes
to water. and what perhaps is quite as
admirable in the man is his soldierly
way of doing his duty and leaving the
problems that underlie the war to be
discussed ty his government In let
ter of his printed in the Topeka Capital
he uses the pen as jauntily and gallant
ly as he uses the sword. In speaking Of
his regiments fighting, he says. 1.-The
bows go for the enemy as if they were
chasing jack rabbits. but for all that it
is a nasty kind of war, full of ambushes
and surprises and incendiarism. He
does not have a very high opinion Of
the Filipinos and says they are an illit-
crate, semisavage people who are wag-
ing war not against tyranny, but
against Anglo-Saxon order and decency
