scHwAB THE pLUTocRAT.

! According to William e. Curtis, in
the Chicago Record Herald, Charles M.
i Schwab is a typical example OF the
newly rich American who seeks news
paper notoriety through vulgar display.
He says: "Of the humblest origin,
without education other tIian that ac-
quired outside of schools, or the polish
that comes from contact with men of
culture, Mr.. Schwab has more vigor
than refinement. He fills every room
he enters; he likes to hear himself
talk, as they say; he is fond of reading
his name in the newspapers; is almost
as reckless in his extravaganza as John
Gates; sings his money around as if he
were not aware of it's value, and never
counts the change; he loves display and
seldom fails to let his left hand know
all about the transactions of his right
He is temperate in his habits, and free
from what are calleo fashionable vices,
but both in Europe and in America he
has cut what is usually termed a wide
swath,' and has not only got there with
both feet, but has boosted of it far and
near. At Monte Carlo he made the old
est gamblers SILVER at the recklessness
of his play; in Paris he astonished the
most blase observer OF the antics of
American millionaires, and is said tot
be the model for the leading character
in the opera 'Floradora.' At Vienna
he gave the most expensive dinner ever
served at that extravagant capital.
The newspapers of every European city
were filled with accounts of his doings
and sayings, and they sounded familiar
to those who have read the story Of
Monte Cristo. Upon his return to the
United States his notoriety was sus-
tanned by frequent publications about
his luxurious apartments; his sump-
tuous banquets; his palatial private
car; his elaborate preparation for af-
fairs which most men would prefer I'M
noticed; and for his sensational plung-
ing into all form of display and ex-
travagance. 1t was only few weeks
ago that the newspapers were filled
with illustrated descriptions of the
magnificent palace he has planned to
build on Riverside Drive, New York
which is intended to surpass all private
residences in the world. His life has
been a moving picture, always on ex-
hibition, and full of sensational inter

Slightly Mixed.

A Georgia hostess, entertaining a large
party of guests in her plantation home
expected an English lord on a night
train. While her jet black George
Washington" served her American guests
admirably, he had had no experience with
English titles.
Therefore, considering little instruc-
ton necessary, Mrs O. proceeded to
give it, as follows:
George, Lord C will be here for
breakfast in the morning, and you must
pass your tray to him first and say, My
Lord. will you have so and SOP"
After going through the formula sever
al times George was dismissed looking
more tnan usually seif-important
When breakfast was announced George
was in his place, his face shining like
polished ebony and his eyes like full
moons. When the guests were seated
George hestated a moment, then made a

Meeting az H7edford

Medford. 0. T, Sept. 25.-Governor r
B. Ferguson and Hon. D. T. Flynn. ar
rived this morning and this afternoon
addressed an enthusiastic meeting in the
opera house.
Governor Ferguson spoke first and took
up general political topics and the duty
of the citizen which he presented in IA
his hearers.
The governor is laboring under throat
trouble and it was an effort for him 10
speak. but he made himself heard in
every part of the house. The speaker was
roundly appIauded at his close. but when
Dennis r. Flynn was introduced the APP
clause was simply terrific.
He was followed by Denis, the idol Of
every homesteader. who at this writing is
pouring hot shot into the opposers Of
statehood.
He is using his old familiar tactics
Of pulling the record on the opposition
so no one can say he nnisrepresents.
Flynn made the most convincing talk
Of his political career. as he IS not a can
didate and is not talking for reelection.
He shows that the national Democrat tic
party is for statehood for Oklahoma. at
once. and that the Oklahoma Democrats
are out Of harmony with their party.
Not a single argument that he is present
ing can be refused.
Even the Democrats who listened to
Flynn's statements conld not keep from
applauding him.

REPUBLICANS WILL WIN.

Our Democratic friends will discover
after the votes are counted on election
day that Republicanism will win in the
county. The great majority of the peo-
pie are tired of the system of misman-
agement in the state and will vote for
Republican state and Republican county
officials. They will favor a clean sweep
that will guarantee better government.
For the past year Republicanism in the
county has made wonderful progress in
the direction of success and there is lit
tie reason to doubt that the election this
fall will again place Clear Creek among
the Republican counties.
fractional differences are an evidence
of interest in party work. The fact that
the Democrats are engaged in cat and
dog time of it in both county and state
does not argue that they will have no
vote this fall. The people will place
party above faction and vote for the NOM
inees. Republicanism is generously pro-
gressive by nature and the people are
just now enjoying Republican prosper
lily for which they will be willing to show
their gratitude
