EDITORIAL
ASSOCIATION.

The Editorial Association which |
meets at Lawton tomorrow will
bring together from many parts
of the country, ,all classes ofnews-
paper people, good, bad and in
different. The men who have
control of the metropolitan dali
les, with subscription lists which
reach phenomenal figures, and
the men who publish the only
paper in the little country towns
will all be there, and the associ-
alton will benefit each one. While
their work may differ greatly,
and their incomes differ still
more, success, in the real mean
ing of the word, means the same
thing TO each one, no matter to
which class he belongs. Success
means that he is n power for
good in the up-building of his
town and county. 1t means the
good will and respect of the peo-
pie among whom he has cast his
lot. 1t means that he can mould
public opinion on almost any sub
iect, and thus accomplish things
for his community which could
not otherwise be accomplished,
and the conscientious editor will
never abuse this power. Sue
cess also means the ability to
meet his daily, weekly, monthly
and yearly expenses, be they
large or small, a reasonable
amount for enjoyment, sum for
charitable purposes and for all
enterprises for the public good,
and a snug little bank account
for the proverbial rainy day.
When success is once assured,
who will deny that an editors
life, though arduous, is a useful
one? But how many there are
who envy newspaper writer's their
success, but never realize the
hardships encountered before
this success is attained. The
stepping stones to success in
journalism are few and unrelia-
BILE, and one is often consider
ably buffeted about by the waves
of adverse circumstances, un-
kind criticism, petty malice and
envy before they reach the safe
harbor of acknowledged ability.
The meeting at Lawton will be
a bright spot in the lives of many
a perplexed editor, for among the
many addresses which will be
given before this association,
there will undoubtedly be many
helpful suggestions which will
brighten the rough path of journ-
alism for those present. These
meetings are of lasting benefit
to those who participate, for it is
often the case that the knowl'
edge gained from the experience
of others could otherwise be ac'
quired only by years of unprofi'
table experimenting. Success t.

THE LOUISIANA PURCHASE.
History of the cession from a Spanish
 Point of View.

AS we summon the nations to cele brate with us the centenary of the Louisiana purchase we are apt to for get that to one of the invited guests the anniversary recalls anything but cheerful memories. In the May nun Der of La Espana Moderna, Senor Je ronimo Becker, archivist of the minis. try of state, gives the history of the cession from Spanish point of view He rehearses in detail the familiar story of the transfer of Louisiana Io Spain in 1763 in compensation for the loss of Florida to England and of the tricky bargain by which Naponeon re- covered the territory, with six men-of- war to boot, in return for the bestowal upon the Duke of Parma of the im- provised Kingdom of Etruria," Ma polean pledging himself never to alien ate the territory to a third power. According to Senor Becker, Talley- rand even went so far as to assure the Spanish government, in return for the sum of $1,000,000 duly paid and an- other million promised, that the ces- sion was to be merely obtensible and NA4ob OPaAh AhlS-lL hCOp uCI after all! Three years later the un- scrupulous first consul had sold Louis jana to the Americans. The Amerl- cans were laying claim to Florida as a part of their purchase, and the Kingdom of Etruria" was still domi- mated by French bayonets. No won der that Senor Becker calls our joy full anniversary "a very sad date" A curious sequel to the story is that, in 1915, the Spanish ministry entertaiRed hopes of regaining Louisiana by the action of the congress of Vienna. Lab rador, the Spanish emissary, was urged to make every effort for resti- tuition. Of this project he easily saw the futility; but he devised an ingeni- ous plan of recovery of his own. The English, he wrote on February 13, were now in possession of New Or leans tor so 1t was believed in Vii enna), and thereby virtually in occu- patton of the entire territory. Though they were bound by the treaty of Ghent to respect the American pos session of Louisiana, this must be distasteful to them. and perhaps they would prefer to hand it over to Spain. The Duke of Wellington, he added, had personally expressed his approval of this arrangement. Of course, when this scheme was preached at London it led to nothing. Senor Becker has not forgiven France, but he nowhere expresses any resentment at the con duct of America curious limitation in his treatment of tho whole historl- cal question is that he seems to regard it solely as matter of diplomacy and of documentary title, and closes his eyes to the fact that, whether Spanish rulers and statesmen were weak or strong, foolish or wise, their authority within the present boundaries of the United States was inevitably destined to be swept away by the tide of Ameri- can expansion.

A VERY REMARKABLE CASE.
Operation on Typhoid
 Fever Patient.

From the Jackson Clarion-Ledger.
 A remarkable surgical operation was performed at the Jackson Sani- tarium Sunday morning and the pa tient is now on the high road to re- covery.
 For eight weeks young white man named Robert Merritt had been con fined to bed with typhoid fever, and during this period case of appendi- citis developed which rendered his death apparently a certainty, as he was too weak to stand a surgical ope- ration. He was in a dying condition Sunday morning, and as desperate resort to save his life the attending physicians, Drs. Crisler, Harrison and Rhodes decided to perform the opera tion. They were surprised to find fully quart of pus accumulated around the appendix. Usually single drop of pus in the peritonal cavity means death. In order to remove the pus it was found necessary to establish drainage through the body, the ab- dominal cavity being opened front and back
 It was not believed that the young man had one chance in thousand to recover, especially as he was afflictef with a tobacco heart caused by excess sive cigarette smoking, but he is get ting along nicely, and this morning, for the first time in over eight weeks, his pulse and temperature were both normal and the only unfavorable symptom is the depressed circulation caused by the tobacco heart.
