have been seen, are willing that the
amendment should be reported as

The amendment has been discussed
by the delegation with the interior
and Indian departments and it is

A Harmonious sesslou-Put Out a
Party Ticket

The republicans of Pauls Valley
met in the court house and decided
to put out republican candidates
for all the municipal offices.
The meeting was very enthusias-
tic, in marked contrast to the dem
ocratic meeting of last Saturday
night.
The nominees for the different
Offices were:
For mayor, Tom Bandy; for
recorder, G.. E. Sorrel; for mar
shal. Sam Harper; for attorney,
T. N. Robnett; for aldermen, Nj.
Cecil. A. NJ. Foss, w. H. Paul.
j. E. Dorchester and A. A.
Scrimpsher; for street commission
er, w. j. Brown.
The meeting was called to order
by Mr.. Robnett and Albert Rennie
was elected chairman and Yerker
E. Taylor was elected secretary.
Speeches were made by C., M.
Campbell of Ardmore and q. F.
Hargis of Wynneweod and were
well received.

IT seems that affairs are not as
satisfactory as could be wished in
the Philippines. The insurgents
are becoming active and AIN un-
censored letter from a correspond
ent at Manila states that the Amer
lean losses during the past month
have been heavier than in any
previous month since hostilities
began with the exception of the
first. 1t is evident that Otis has
been throwing dust in the eyes of
the American people for the pur-
pose of retaining his position.
When people have fought for years
for independence against a domi-
nant power and won it, only to
find that their liberties are trans
ferred like chattels they can't be
expected to submit tamely to this
new wrong which is sought to be
fastened upon them. The present
administration will find that the
Philippine question will be one OF
the many blunders which viii hang
like mill-stones around it's neck,
dragging il back to private life
and political obscnrity.

ARDMoRE should have q system
of waterworks in operation by next
fall and the only way to secure it
is to grant a franchise. There is
no money and no way to raise
money for municipal ownership at
this time. When the question is
considered in the light of our
abilities and resources there is but
one solution and that is a fran
chise. When it is narrowed down
to this there should be but very
slight hesitation in giving the pre-
ference to a home company where
its offer is reasonable. The propo-
sition that he's been made by the
home company is in every way
advantageous to the city, admitting
that the city is unable TO build a
system itself, and the proposition
should be accepted by the council.

Woman is often referred to by man
as doubling his joys and halving
his sorroWs." That may be compl:-
mentary but it would seem to be
rather hard on the woman. For in
plain terms it means that where
things are going well with the man
his wife makes them 60 better. But
when things are going i'll with him,
he expects the wife to share half his
burden. And there is more truth
than poetry In this presentation of
masculine selfishness. Men don't
appreciate the fact that the strain of
motherhood alone is a burden bigger
than all the loads that rest upon male
shoulders. They see the wife grow
thin, pale, nervous and worn without
q thought that she is over-burdened.
Among the pleasant letters received
by DIR. Pierce are those from hus-
bands who have walked up before il
is too late to the crushing burdens
laid upon.his wife, and in search oi
help have found in DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription restorative which
has given back to the mother the
health of the maiden and the maid

ton always helps, and almost always
cures. 1t has perfectly cured ninety
eight out of every hundred womer
who have used it when afflicted with
diseases peculiar to women.

A Simple Remedy.

Mr.. D. E. Allen handed US the
following clipping from the paper
published at his old home, as it
may prove of benefit to some readers
of the ARDNoREITE in the future:
In view of the presence of small
pox in many cities of this state,
the health officer of Kewanee has
caused to be published the follow
ing notice. : 1t was first communi-
Gated to the Liverpool Mercury by
a Mr.. Hine, who said: I am will,
ing to risk my reputation as a pub
lie man if the worst case of small
pox cannot be cured in three days
simply by the use of cream of tar
tar. One ounce of cream of tartar
dissolved in a pint of boiling water
and drank at intervals when cold,
is a certain, never failing remedy.
1t has cured thousands, never leaves
a mark, never causes blindness and
avoids tedious, lingering illness. ("

In connection with the above
letter the ARDMoREITE is pleased
to mention the fact that the town
site amendment, providing that
each town shall lay out and plat
its own townsite, had its origin
with Judge Bradford. In q speech
before the South McAlester con-
vention he offered that solution of
our townsite difficulties and the
suggestion was received with tre-
mendous applause. The bill pre-
pared by our delegation at Wash
ington, and which was published
in full in last Thursdays ARD
MoREITE, embodies the suggestion
made by Judge Bradford, and to
him properly belongs large share
of the credit should the amendment
become law.

preparation for the summer sea-
son. New hotels and new store
buildings are being erected and
lumber yard has been put in to
meet the demands for building ma
terial. One can see Improvement
on every hand.
Nature has done wonders for
Sulphur. 1t has probably dozen of
the best white sulphur springs to be
found anywhere, beside one and
perhaps several of the finest iithia
springs. But the springs are not
the only indictment Ito visit the
town during the heated season.
There are fine bathing. fishing and
hunting facilities in and near the
town.
Prospectors are there from all
over the country, and they are not
only prospecting. but many of
them have bought property and
are showing their faith in the
town by investing Mr.. Frank
Gafford will complete handsome
dwelling soon and begin the erec-
ton of an ice plant which will
have ample capacity to supply all
demands. Mr.. Williams of Dallas
is there and will fit up an up-to-
date bath house, which will add
much to the popularity of the
springs. MIR. Will Pyeatt will add
twenty new rooms to his already
commodious hotel in the near fu-
ture, while his wife is identifying
the grounds with rare flowers and
ornamental trees. Croquet and
lawn tennis grounds will be ar
ranged before the season opens.
But the improvement is not con.
fined to the town. A force of meI
from Davis, headed by Mr.. Blythe
are building bridges and repairing
the road from Davis to Rock creek
and the people of Sulphur viii
perform a similar work from the
creek to Sulphur. This is a movt
in the right direction and will ado
greatly to the comfort of visitors
who travel this road to the springs
There is little doubt that Wynne
wood will also improve the roads
from that place to Sulphur as sh,
is almost as much interested in tn,
springs as is Davis.
By the time the summer seasol
opens there will be a new set o
city officials in Sulphur. Th,
campaign is now on and the popu
lar ex-Confederate, ID. j. Kendall
is groomed for the mayoralty race
which his friends are confident h.
will win.
The Sulphur Headlight, the only
newspaper there, is on the alert t.
say and do all in It's power for tn,
building of the town.

PHILIPPINE POPULATION.
Preparations Made for Taking the
Census of the New Pos
aeaafnmn.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13-within a
short time a census OF the Philippine
Islands will be taken to determine the ex-
act population OF the archipelago, to as
certain the wealth of the islands, and for
the purpose OF throwing light upon the
social conditions existing In the newly
acquired Eastern possessions. Prof. Carl
G. Plehm, of the University Of California
supervisor of the census of San Fran
cisco, has been appointed by the Philip
pine commission to take the census
This work will be done subject to the
requirements of the military situation.
It's cost will be betrayed from the insular
revenues, and its territorial limits, as well
as all details of the work. will be deter
mined by the military government IL is
possible, however, that the census of the
whole archipelago cannot be obtained ow-
ing 10 the unsettled state of affairs
The difficulty which will be encountered
IN taking the census of the Philippines will
be seen at glance. whom IL Is known
that there are eighty-four tribes In the
archipelago, nearly all OF whom speak a
different tongue. II is anticipated that
the cnumcrators, many Of which will be
natives of the islands, will meet with
many obstacles owing to the ignorance
OF the people, and It Is feared the first
census taken OF the Philippine islands by
the United States will not be of much
value. although care will be taken 10 Sc
cure the most accurate information pos
sihie.
IL Is estimated that the population OF
the Philippines numbers from 5000 900 10
100000 persons, but a reliable census OF
the Philippines has never been taken. as
the Spanish official statistics are motor
iousiy unreliable.
