The reports from Washington would
Indicate that the secretary of the in
terror is walking the floor, and that
he may walk out the back door, and
that Cy Leland Of Kansas may walk
in. This rumor is founded on the
fact that the president has sent for Le-
land to come TO Washington, and that
he has gone. With him are Governor
Bailey and Senator Long. These .rul-
ers Of Kansas politics are holding eau

Roosevelt fired Leland out of a pen.

back by making Long United States

make amends and the word has been

In North Carolina, where convicts
have been worked on the roads, 1t
has been conclusively shown that they
can be worked with profit to the peo-
pie in this way. and that they are bet.
ter treated and in better physical
health because Of the employment. In
California the convicts are worked in
stone quarries, getting out stone for
the roads, and Il is found that they
can be prohtably employed in this
way. In all experiments with convict
labor on the roads the result has been
most satisfactory. Opposition to such
employment comes from those who
have thought such employment bad,
but have never tried It,

PURCELL FINE STOCK SHOW.
Stock Already ArriVins-wih BE an
Attraction Worth Seeing.
To the Ardmoreite.

To the Ardmoreite.
Purcell. I. T.. March 19.-Everything
seems favorable for the fine livestock
show at this place. 10 be an attraction
never before equalled anywhere in the
Territory. and rarely excelled out Of
Il.
We are receiving entries every day.
One car Of registered cattle has al
ready arrived. also have letter
from J. w. Carey OF Armstrong. |. T..
stating that he had shipped his
stun" and they would arrive prompt
ly. This is the famous herd that did
so much business at the recent fine
stock show at Fort Worth. and let me
say no ore has better cattle than Mr..
Carey.
A deal has been made with repu-
table man from Dallas. Texas, to fur.
nish us with a good clean street
show during the meeting OF the ssso-
citation. This show is to be com
posed OF the Passion Play, Electric
Theater, Ferris Wheel. Vaudeville and
Minstrel Show. These attractions are
not to be anything on the "skinning"
order. but good. clean shows. such as
any lady can visit with proprlety.
Catalogues will be out in few days
advertising the sale OF fine pure bred
Shorthorn cattle, to be sold by J. G..
Washington, Dr. Hoover. f. f. Alkire
and others. and let me also say that
this will be as good a sale as anyone
can see anywhere in the South this
year.
Please do not forget that the Santa
Fe has made passenger rate of ons

musNoerE's SERIOUS sAcksEr
Her Election for Issue Of School Bonds
Is Absolutely Void.


The school bond election is abso.
lutely void" was the information re-
ceived by the Phoenix in phone mes
sage last night from Judge Samson,
at Wagner
Judge Samson and r. p. de Grafen-
reid. both OF whom are members Of
the school board. yesterday went to
Wagner to present TO Judge Raymond
the question Of the validity OF the cleo
tion in this city, at which bonds to the
amount Of $4,000 were voted for the
purpose of building two s25. 900 school
houses.
1t is understood that Judge Raymond
has not yet officially passed upon the
validity Of the election. but It has
been ascertained beyond a doubt that
the requirements Of the law we're not
complied with and that the work will
all be to do again.
The act Of congress by which cities
in Indian Territory are enabled to vote
bonds for school purposes provides
for a census Of the city voting the
bonds. to be taken as an enumerator
appointed by the Federal Judge in the
district in which the city is located.
This requirement, in the recent cleo
ton was not compiled with.
And again, the notice of election as
published read, Notice is hereby
given that a special election by the
voters OF Muskogee who are taxpay-
ers." when the call should have been
issued to the qualified electors Of Mus
kogee.
1t is very much regretted that this
serious blunder has been made. Be
sides the delay that will result in pro-
viding adequate school facilities for
the children Of the city, It will entail
much additional trouble and consider
able expense. The election was car
ried for the bonds only after hard
fight. and the expenditure of much
time and energy, and the fact that the
same fight must again be waged is a
matter greatly to be deplored.-Phoe-
nix.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1903-03-20

over at Muskogee they have o
law effective by order of the board OF
health, which reads: ANY and all
parties who may be guilty of throwing
garbage, trash. dead animals or any
filth within or within one mile of the
city limits will be prosecuted to the
fullest extent of the law" 1t seems
to us that Ardmore has had a similar
law here. but like many others, we
fear from lack OF enforcement it has
become obsolete. 1t should be resur-
rected at once and for humanity's sake
rigidly enforced.

A general expectation about Wash.
ington is that the president will ap-
point Senator James X Jones of Ar.
kansas to be one OF the Panama canal
commissioners. II this appointment
is made the senator will at once re-
sign from the Craftsmanship of the
National Democratic Committee. In
that event 1t is probable that either
Senator German or Senator Stone
would be chosen chairman.

NEGRO WAS NOMINATED.

Now the Republicans Are Demanding
Another Convention.
Very recently the Republicans over
at Wagner held a convention to nom
mate candidate for the office of con
stable.
Will Rube and Charles Bailey were
put in nomination. The colored pres.
ent nominated Freeman Jones. a col
ored man. When the vote was taken
1t was discovered that the negro had
more votes than both of the whites
put together, and now the whites are
demanding another convention.

A Naked Truth.

The following is applicable to 9th.
ers as well as to teachers: A county
superintendent in a neighboring coun-
ty asked every teacher at the institute
who took the local or county paper
to hold up his or her hand. and
out Of 100 only six responded. The
superintendent expressed great sur
prise and said: You don't spend 81
year with these papers. yet you
expect them to print, free of charge,
notices OF all Institutes. insert long
programs, thus advertising you and
assisting you to climb the ladder to
better places and better salaries with
out cents expense in return"

There can only be one outcome as
the result OF placing the aldermen in
each ward in the position of street
and alley committees. and that will
be for Ardmore's good. It places the
overseeing of street work in the hands
OF persons directly interested. It will
also have tendency to create a
spirit OF rivalry in the various wards
in general cleanliness and keeping the
streets in better condition, something
we certainly need. Those who prefer
working the streets, rather than pay
the tax in cash, will work with a better
will, feeling that. they are benefting
property in their own neighborhood
rather than in some other ward. A
freer willingness will also be displayed
by those who contribute cash in the
knowledge that their money will be
expended wholly in their own ward.
Altogether the change is a good one
and win be appreciated by all our
citizens.
