over balanced by the fact that
Oklahoma is overwhelmingly
Democrat and will undoubtedly
line up against Mr.. Taft or any
other man who succeeds in land
ing the Republican Presidential
nomination. If he had been
playing politics in this instance
the President would have turned
down the aspiring state.
Had he done 50 the Republican
and independent press would
have praised the actof courage
in restraining the oyer.ambitious
and unwise population of the twin
territories, the party politicians
would have licked their chops
and prepared for more pie. As
for Secretary Taft, he would
have been backed up strongly
and with Oklahoma not voting
there would be no particularly
bad features about his unpopu-
larity in that section.
Why, then, did the President
favor Oklahoma: That ought to
be easy. He knew that it Was
not right to keep a million peo-
pie in every way qualified for
citizenship out Of the union. He
knew that the proposed consti
tuition was democratic in form
and that there was very little to
the gerrymander charges. He
knew that Oklahoma was quail
fed in every way for statehood.
So he did what he knew to be
right.
There are many bad policies OF
the president and all Of us may
not admire his egotistical
arrogance; but We should give
him credit occasionally Of doing
a di~stasteful duty.

WELL DONE

The work of Hon. VIM. H.
1hiles in connection with the
Baptist convention just closed is
a strong e ample o. unseltish de
votion. For several weeks Mr..
Gales has worked necessarily
making arrangements for the
entertainment of the visitors.
Obstacle after obstacle has
arisen and been overcome; dis
enlargement after discourage
ment has been met with and
conquered.
The labor was of the kind that
could not be turned over to depu.
ties. and SO Mr.. Chiles has been
compelled to stay at his desk
from early morning to late eve.
ming taking uIne OUT Only lol
meals. Consequently he had t
forego the pleasure Of hearing
the speakers or attending any
meetings.
Arranging for the entertain.
ment of 600 visitors in a towr
like Lexington is a gigantic un
dertaking and the way in which
the crowd was handled is re
markable indeed. Nh. Chiles
deserves the greatest thank,
from both the visitors and the
townspeople.

BAD nRAMATIcS.

Sixteen girls under age have
been reported missing from
their homes in Kansas City since
the first of the month. The rea-
son ascribed in most cases is
stage fever. A glance at the
theatrical department in the
want ads Of any city paper will
show several like this; Wanted,
four handsome young ladies' to
join theatrical troupe, experience
not necessary. The wages those
who are fortunate enough to
secure positions get vary from
six to ten dollars a week and
railroad fare, Out of this the
actresses must pay for their
board, lodging and clothes. Some
girls who start in this way are
merely out for what they call a
good time; but most Of them have
dreams of metropolitan sue
cesses. Almost without excep-
ton these girls soon lose their
ideals and ideas Of morality and
become drudges, content to plod
along on a meagre salary, or
something worse.
And how the public suffers.
The bum show advertises ex-
actly as does the good produc-
ton and it is altogether too fra
quently that the people get
stung. This is entirely distaste-
full to the public and hardly
profitable to the opera house
manager. A few poor perform
ances give the impression that
the standard of the opera house
is low and when there comes
along a decent company, which
has to charge prices above the
average, the people refuse to
turn out.
Invariably a bad show will 90
against the wall financially and
leave the owners in a bad way.
1t is difficult, then, to see who
derives any benefit from a poor
production, The players do not;
the owners do not; the theatre
managers do not the people dc
mot. If some means could be de-
vised to eliminate the bun
show" everybody would be
blessed,

NEW PARTNERSHIP.
DR.. A. J. Chalkey Will Succeed DR.. j. {.
Tucker.

DR.. J. E. Tuckefi Who Is now in Col
orado, has decided TO give up his
practice here on account of his
health. He wrote to his partner, DR..
G. w. F~redendall, to that effect sew
eral weeks ago, but his decision was
not mi de public at the time.
DR.. Fredendall Immediately wrote
DR.. A. ], Chalkley, who is pract-
icing in Virginia, making him a prop
osition to enter partnership. DR.
ChalHley accepted and Thursday
DR.. Fredendall received a letter
stating that he would be here
Nov. Is.
This arrangement will be a good
one for DR.. Chalkley, us he is already
well acquainted here and he steps in
to an excellent practice. 1t will also
be pleasant for Mrs. Charley, who
was formerly Miss Annie Ireland of
this place
The loss of DR.. Tucker who is not
only a skilled physician but an
excellent citizen will be keenly
felt in Lexington, but DIR. Chalkley
will be heartily welcomed.

by the generous provisions OF
the Horace X. Turner Company
of Boston, Mass, we are able to
take advantage of the famous
Turner Free Travelling Art
Exhibit during the days of
November 9Th to 9th inclusive,
and we will plan as far as
possible to bring our young
people to an appreciation of the
treasures Of Art which will be
brought to them.
The pictures are beautiful re
productions and the majority Of
our school children have never
seen prints Of such a high
standard and e&}3ltaat quality.
They are made by Photographic
processes only, and, as shown
are in one color (brown, gray,
green, or blue %tones), and in the
colors of the originals lin hand
color and in color Photography. }
This collection is a Travelling
Art Gallery or Art Museum in
itself, including as it does, re-
productions of the worlds lead
ing subjects in paintings, por-
traits, architecture, sculpture,
and natural scenery.
WHAT THE ART EXHIBIT WILL DO
For OUR COMMUNITY.
The Art Exhibit offers a
splendid opportunity to begin a
work, in the schools, of stimulat-
ing an appreciation of good
pictures among the children. It
will reach out into the Homes
and awaken a great interest in
pictures among the parents. 1t
will bring the entire &C Immunity
in closer touch with the schools
and their needs and will provide
a substantial fund for school
room decoration.
The walls of many of our
school rooms present to the eyes
of the pupils, and hence to their
minds, only baroness, whereas
with suitable decoration, they
could be made to convey a sense
of comfort or cheerfulness, al
ways conducive to better work,
to inspire the thought when the
eyes wander from the lessor
page as they viii.
The plan of givingour children
a more comprehensive idea o.
the value of good pictures can b,
furthered in no better manner
than by means of the Horace K
Turner Art Exhibit which i
loaned, with no financial guaran
tee, for the purpose of raising
funds for school-rOom decoration
This exhibit comprises two hun
/ dred beautiful reproductions 0

THE PRESIDENTS MOTIVE.

Various and sundry are the
motives which,, according to the
opinions of many country edit
ors, actuated President ROose-
welt to decide in flavor Of Okla
homa as a state. Some say that
he feared the great outburst of
adverse public opinion which
would be occasioHed by his re-
fusal to approve demonstration,
others that he wished to cOun-
teract the bad impression made
by Secretary Taft inadyising the
people of Oklahoma to postpone
statehood.
Possibly both of these consid-
erations and othec'selfsh ones
entered into the Presidents cal
culations before he made his de.
cisions, but it ms doubtful j.
either carried any weight. HAD
he considered things from
purely selfish or Partizan stand
,point the two reasons above men
toned would have been greatll
