scHLEYs LIPS SEALED.
VIII Not Talk Politics or Shop on His
journey.

Guthrie, o. T. May 2o.--Admirai Schley
is the hero in Guthrie today. He is attend
ing the consistory meeting, but that does
not prevent hundreds of people going to
the Masonic temple to see him.
The admiral refuses to talk on politics
or matters in relation to the present war.
The Eagle correspondent asked him to-
day: In the light of the conflict in the
Far East. what is your opinion as to the
relative value of the battleship and tor
pedo boat"
He pressed the two forefingers of his
right hand tightly over his mouth for a
minute and then said: My lips are sealed
on that question. / would like to talk
with you about it but that would be out
of the question now"
Admiral Schley Is a prince in Masonry,
and for all time he will be a prominent
character in the naval history of the
world, but by, the thousands of people who
have met him in Oklahoma he will be
more vividIy remembered as the perfect
gentleman that he is. modest. genial
and warm-hearted. Every one who has
felt the friendly grasp of his hand will
remember him as a valued friend.

HIS WORK is ENORMOUS

Guthrie. O. T, May 2o-Hon. 3. S. Nc
Guire is getting ready for a vigorous cam
paign this coming summer and fall
against he strongholds of Democracy in
Oklahoma Men who have witnessed the
political battles in the territory ever
since its settlement are of the opinion
that conditions are favorable at the pres
en- time for decided victory for the Re-
publican nominee.
Mr.. Mcclure has adopted the japanese
plan Of being ready for the fight imme-
diately the diplomatic relations are ter
minated. He has established his head
quarters on the second floor of the brick
building at the northeast corner of Okla
homa avenue and Second street. He has
three rooms two fitted up in good style
and the other for a store room
The average citizen has very little idea
of the amount of work that a congress-
man has to do. Private Secretary MyTon
Boyle has so many letters to answer that
he has been compelled TO employ an as
sistant and two typewriters are now in
use. The Republican central committee
will open headquarters here about the
first of July, but in what building has
not yet been determined.
Bird s Mcclure has had the experience
Of one campaign and that will be an ad
vantage to him during the coming contest.
Politicians, generally, concede that Mr..
Mcclure is stronger now with the people
than two years ago. He carried Logan
county two years ago by "A plurality of
1,3M and it is confidently asserted that he
will carry it this year by 20so.
Out of a total vote of 81 210 two years
ago Mcclure beat Cross, the Democratic
nominee only 394 votes. The vote stood:
Mcclure, 4S.SGS; Cross, 45 400. The Social
ist candidate that year poled 1855 votes
and the Prohibition candidate was given
1,035 votes. 1t is conceded that the So
cialist vote will show a considerable in
crease this year and that the gain will
come very largely from the Populist,
who voted for the Democratic nominee
two years ago.
There are grounds for the claim of the
Republicans that Mcclure will be stronger
at the coming election than two years ago,
and at the same time it would be hard

When the law, through its licensing of the

This reminds me of a woman friend in

make the giving away form as ridiculous
as possible she insisted that the parents
of the young man should appear and give

A REMARKABLE TEST
APPLIED BY A TEACHER IN A
LEADING UNIVERSITY.
Demonstrates the Power Of pr. vii.
Iiams' Pink Pills to Restore
Shattered Nerves.

Mrs. Leander Lane, wife of the minister
of the Christian church, of No. 2010 /
street, South Omaha, Neb., tells how her
daughter has been enabled to resume her
professional work as a teacher after suf-
fering for nearly three years from severe
nervous prostration:
When she was passing from girlhood
to womanhood," says Mrs. Lane, .she
suffered greatly from difficulties peculiar
to her sex. The physician did not help
her, but a few boxes of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills brought about the perfect
regulation of her system.
While she had escaped from one grave
trouble. she unfortunately began to over
work. first as a student and then as a
teacher in a large Iowa institution for
orphan boys. She enjoyed her work and
was very enthusiastic. but the strain
family told on her. She became pale,
weak, nervous. unable to sleep; she had
no appetite and she suffered from severe
headaches. Then came a complete break
down and her work had to be given UP.
THE confidence which DR.. Williams
Pink Pills had already inspired in US led
US to try them again in this emergency.
We sometimes doubted whether she was
gaining, but we noticed that whenever
she stopped taking the pills she fell back
and whenever she resumed the use of
them she revived and so we kept up
the treatment until she recovered her
usual health and was able to take a
position in one of our universities, where
she is happily at work. My, mother. H.
daughter and myself have a well-fouidel
confidence in the merits of DIR. Wil-Iarps'
Pink Pills and are always ready 70 recnni-
mend them
This is simply one more proof that these
pills seek disease at its source and effect
