time most truthful criticisms of the
Topeka Capital while edited and man.
aged by Rev Chas. nj. Sheldon, as he
believed "Jesus would do" comes from
Dean Sykes, the head of the Episcopal
church in Kansas and who is a neigh
Dor of Mr.. Sheldon's and member of
the ministerial association to which
Mr.. Sheldon belongs. He is quoted as
saying, among other things, the follow
ing: "The newspaper that Brother
Sheldon gave us for week is not the
kind of a newspaper that I would want
to read 365 days in the year. In the
first place, it is not newspaper. To
be newspaper publication must give
all the news, regardless of what it may
be. The kind of a newsper l want to
read is one that tells me all that is hap
pening, let it be murder, suicide, di.
vorce or anything else. The only re-
quirement is that it be true. want to
know what is going OH in the world
about me, and there is no reason why
should not know. There is no new S.
paper at the present day published that
tells as deplorable truths in such clear
and pointed manner as the old tesla
ment, and still every man, woman and
child is supposed to be conversant with
the Bible. When newspaper is made

sion of daily truths it becomes simply
religious journal, and is a success only
in its proper place."

PROSPERITY stories have taken the
place of calamity croakings in Kansas,
and Mr.. Bryan is wondering what he
can do to regain his former hold upon
the ears of those who no longer find
him interesting. The story is told of
an old farmer who, at the point of a
shot gun, compelled creditor to &C.
cept payment of note before it fell
due. "WLy did he do that9n some one
asked the narrator. "Oh, he wanted
to stop the interest,"" was the reply.
John w. Breidenthal, the state bank
commissioner, tells of banker out i'm

HIGH TRIBUTE TO M'KINLEY.

The Washington Post, published al
the national capital, one of the ablest
papers in the country, Independent in
politics and keen critic of men and
events, pays this high tribute to Presi-
dent Mckinley:
Looking backward over the past
three years, the Post fails to recall a
single moment i'm which 1T did not
wish well for Mr.. Mckinley in his ca
pacity of chief magistrate. His has al
ways been a most attractive personal
ity. His genuine kindness of heart,
his quick response to every generous
and noble overture, and, above all his
conspicuous patriotism, have COM
manded profound esteem and affec-
tionate admiration. AS ruler he has
ever been SO genuinely humane, so
thoroughly i'm touch with the plain,
honest people of the country-their
wants and sentiments and aspirations
so instinct with high purpose, and so
quick to respond to every noble prompt
ing, it has seemed to the Post that the
nation was particularly blest in his in
cumbency.
awe take pride in the constancy
with which the Post supported the
president throughout the war with
Spain and the :roublous times follow
ing, and we like to think that the
whole country, without reference to
political affiliations, has up to this mo-
ment given him its respect and conf
dence. Seldom, if ever, has any chief
executive of the United States received
demonstration SO sincere and so spOn-
taneous as was made i'm Mr.. McKin-
ley's honor at the outbreak of the war.
And it is pleasant to remember that,
throughout the war and at every critical
moment in its progress, Democrats
were, as Republicans, united in their
hearty and unfeigned approval. Mr..
McKinley's administration has been
beneficent and brilliant. The coun-
try's confidence has been rewarded
with period of unprecedented pros
perity. Under his dispensation we
have extended our territory in two
hemispheres, we have become world
power of the first rank, and have taken
leading place among the nations. He
has presided over the most important
and tragic and tremendous epoch i'm
our history. We may be launched on
strange and troubled waters. We may
have taken departure fraught with
peril and responsibility. But at least
Mr.. McKinley's part has been played
with dignity and wisdom. AT least he
has shown himself worthy of his high
place and his immeasurable obliga-

ARDMORE BROOM FACTORY

NEARLY two years ago, S. S.
Armstrong, in an humble way,
began the manufacture of
brooms in our city. By strict
attention to business he has seen
this industry grow upon him,
until now he employs three
assistants and his factory is
turning out brooms at the rate
of.seven dozen every day, with
which he supplies both the
wholesale and retail trade of the
city, guaranteeing to the whole
sale man saving of freight on
his goods. The capacity of this
little factory is crowded now,
but it's enterprising manager

THE WESTERN UNION TEL
EGRAPH COMPANY.

THE business of this Office is
keeping steady pace with the
growing trade of Ardmore. In
round figures, the business
amounts to $500 or 5000 every
month, doing more, probably,
than all other offices combined
on this line in the Territory.
Two day operators, one night
operator and two messenger
boys control the service here.
Like many other institutions in
our town, their Office room is en-
tirely too small, and the crying
want of it's patrons and the bus
mess public is for an uptown
office, The business portion OF
Ardmore has spread out SO that
the demand for an uptown office
is an actual necessity.

MACHINE SHOPS.

WHILE Ardmore has no foun-
dry, she can boast of some good
machine shops. We say ''good"
from the fact that they are fitted
with excellent machinery and
have skilled workmen to handle
the tools.
The Ardmore Machine Shops,
under the management of Julian
& Parker is, we believe, the
oldest of it's class here, and is
equipped with all the needed
machinery for work on engines,
boilers, threshers, gins, well
drills and such like. There is
also a skilled workman in the
horse-shoeing, wagon and buggy
department.

WELLS-FARGO EXPRESS co.

WITH the advent of the railroad
to this point, came the express
Office. Its origin was of the
humblest kind, an old box car
which was sidetracked here,
served as the headquarters and
offices of the station agent,
Western Union telegraph, and
Wells Fargo Express company.
Keeping pace with the town,
however, this Office business has
assumed such proportions that
for the, past few years it is
classed as one of the thirty
three important Offices of the
company's Southern division,
Not only this, but our express
Office ranks twelfth for the
amount of business done in the
district embracing Texas, Louis.
