The democrats having decided
that the money question is elimi-
mated frsm the present campaign,
republican leaders, realizing the
weakness of their position on the
real issues of the day, propose to
thresh Sound money straw over
sgain. Such course only indicates
the hopelessness of their predica-
ment. NO sensible voter will be
blinded by their efforts to obscure
the real issues, upon which their
position is indefensible. 1t looks
Jike a case of a drowning man
grasping at straws.

That story about Bryan-demo-
Gratis and Populists combining to
fight Parker need cause no alarm
TO democrats. When the leader is
won over, no serious danger is to
be apprehended from the ranks.
The Bryan-democrat is mon est"
along with all the other peculiar
brands of democracy that have ex-
listed. There is only one kind of
democrat abroad now-the plain,
old fashioned JefFersonian democrat
before whom all the enemies of
government for the people yield.

1t strikes fellow up tree as a
little curious that the democrats
who were so fearful lest a division
be created in the party by raising
the statehood question in the Du-
rant convention should now be
engaged in organizing separate
statehood democratic clubs. And
this in the face of the well known
fact rhat large majority Of the
democrats are in favor of single
statehood. If the statehood ques-
tion was non political issue before
the Durant convention, it is one
still. 1t would seem to be the
part of political wisdom to perfect
the democratic organization in the
territory along lines upon which
all can agree in order that the par
ty may present a united front TO
the enemy when the fight comes,
as it soon will.

TOWN BUILDERS

The modern good city IS a result
Of the united work OH the part of
the business interests. The COM
mercial club, under some name or
another, is the center of the good
city of now. The growth and de-
velopment of no city is possible
without concerted action by the
business men and property owners
Of that city. These men and wo-
men who are charged with the
building of town are generally
able TO agree if they have all oppor-
tunity to meet and talk the matter
over. That is what the CONNER
cial doss for the cities of the coun-
try. 1t affords the people place
where they can meet and talk over
things of moment for the town. 1t
is center to which they can look
look for initiative and for advertis
ing of the town.
The smallest good town in Okla
homa has a commercial club The
largest city of the Territory has
no advantage over the smaller one
save in the larger opportunities the
commercial club of the metropolis
can present..
Sometimes there is a misappre-
hension as to just what is expected
of the commercial club But if it
start out on the proposition it is
for the town builders, and the town
builders all get together in the club
and work together it can not go
wrong in its mission.
The commercial club should be
the clearing house for ideas as to
the betterment of the town and |
better advertising the town. No
matter that is of interest to the
people of the section of the country
in which a town is located should
be over looked by the commercial
club.l
A reflection of the business view
Of the city can sometimes be found
in the attitude of the commercial
club and in the manner in which it
does things. But sometimes the
business men of the city are capa-
bic of doing things that they have
not tried to do. These owe it to
themselves and their business inter
.sts to become interested in the
.hings that 90 to make q better

alleys, vacant lots, back yards and
front yards about town. They
present an exceedingly attractive
scene to the eye in love with ma
ture's charming ways. 1t would
be shocking to the aesthetic sense
of many people to remove them.
Then where would the busy little
mosquito, tired and exhausted from
his nights ravages upon the human
denizens of ths town, find a cool
resting place during the day timer
1t would be inhumane to these in
teresting pests to deprive them of
this delightful retreat.
Another class of creatures that
would have their peace of mind
seriously disturbed is the tribe of
malaria germs that feed and fatten
in this congenial cline. His Roy
al Nibsky, the Germovitch would
certainly enter solemn protest a.
gainst such ruthless proceedings as
depriving him of his natural habi-
tation. He feels more at home in
the weeds than in any other place
except in the human body and he
finds a convenient passage leading
from the one to the other.
III spite Of these objections,
however, there are some people
whose sense of beauty is 50 perver-
ted and whose notion Of the divine
rights of mosquitoes and mall
aria to prowl where they
will is so at variance with
the sacred principle of the personal
liberty of pests, that they insist
that the weeds should be removed.
These people have no better sense
than to insist that the weed forests
are ousightly, that they are a dis
grace to the town and menace to
the health of the community. They |
would have them removed, but
how3 Gentlemen, this is the all
important questionbefore the house.

The EXPRESS man has spent
many restless nights pondering this
stupendous question. 1t is a ques-
tion that provokes ones gray mat
ter to unwonted activity. 1t has
engaged the attention of some of

But like most other great problems
it has a solution, and in moment
Of inspiration the light came. A

Get a scythe and go to work on

What Is the Difference?

In the recent meeting Of the
Georgia State Baptist Convention
Ex- Governor Northern, who was
president Of the body, made clarion
call on the Georgia Baptists to turn
their backs on worldly amusem"nts.
He very truly said that whatever evil
tends to the spread Of intemperance
In Georgia finds Its origin In the home.
He said in a ringing voice: What
is the difference, will you tell me, be-.
tween the man behind the counter
dealing out liquid damnation, as 1t Is
called, for pay, and the woman beau
tifully gowned at the reception stand
itg behind the beautiful punch bowl
handing out in fancy glasses intoxi
eating beverages with )ut pay? What
is the difference, will you tell me, be
tween the men who meet In the back
room OF a saloon and put out the
watch m In while they play for silver
In the shape OF coin and gaudily
gowned women gathered in the draw
Ing room to play for silver moulded
into the shape OF a cup? In Gods
names, brethren, let's get Our women
10 cedicate their homes to God"
What Gov. Northern said to Georgia
Baptists applies with equal force TO
South Carolina Baptists, Me.hodjsts,
or the members OF any other church.
He INDUCES in very plain language
and asks pointed question. Like
Gov. Northern we can't see any differ.
