world aaLd suffering themselves from
the fact that water has cut them off
from all Of the modern conyeuiences
by having their streets flooded and
all OF their business stopped tenn
porarily until the floods subside and
the damages may be repaired,
In this Ardmore is blessed as Il
is the highest point on the line OF
the Santa Fe between Galveston and
Kansas City and although this city
Is suffering the Inconvenience Of MOI
having any train service. we are not
hindered by the floods and we still
have our electric light power, our
natural gas supply, and the wheels
Of business so far as in this city is
concerned none OF the enterprises
have stopped work. and but little
damage has been done In this sec.

Ardmore can boast OF the general
healthfulness OF the city, and TO the
population the mortuary record Is
the least OF any town OF its size
in the union, Such a thing as an
epidemic OF disease Is unknown in
this section. The city Is free from

REAL OPENING OF CAMPAIGN
Sherman and eeveridse Both in New
York City Today.

VVVN WY bSA0ys
New York, Sept. 25.-Today marks
the real opening of the republican pres
idential campaign in New York city.
After a brief campaigning tour in New
Jersey, James s. Sherman, republican
nominee for the vice presidency, will
make MONDAY address at the reg
.ular midday meeting Of the Commercial
Travellers Sound Money league. To-
night, at Carnegie hall, Senator Bev-
eridge will reply to Bryan's 1ndianap-
oils speech, on Business and Trusts"
Sherman made spirited attack on
free silver record. The coun-
try, he said, should not lull itself into
fancied security by what he called the
tactful silence of the democratic pres
idential candidate on this subject, In
this campaign. He argued that the
election of Bryan, Should insanity
oyertake the people and lead to such
a result in the present campaign,
would endanger the gold standard, FOR
no one can say that the pied piper
Nebraskan, if elected, would not wan
der off into the cloudy dreamland OF
his financial vagaries." Thereafter,
Sherman's speech was a eulogy of the
gold standard, to the establishment and
maintenance of which the republican
party ascribed the commercial pros
perity that followed the victory over
Bryan in his first campaign.

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 25.-Four thou
sand people from all walks Of life fol-
lowed the huge casket containing the
remains of Little Jimmie" musician
and composer, to its resting place in
Calvary cemetery. His death came with
great suddenness and removes one Of
the most remarkable men in the United
States. 1t was his boast that the five
feet and eleven inches of his height was
his exact waist measure, and he
weighed at the time Of his death $40
pounds. The casket in which he was
buried was seven feet four inches long
and thirty-four inches wide. Twelve
pallbearers were required to carry it.
Little Jimmie" was the last of five
children and the support of widowed
mother to whom he was exceptionally
devoted. He was musician Of marked
ability and many excellent compost
tions have carried his name far and
wide. He was a we'll known theater
orchestra leader iii the middle west and
was also we'll known for his excellent
tenor voice.
Little Jimmie's" name was James
j. Latourelle. He was but thirty years
of age at his death. On his last birth
day he laughingly remarked that at
his normal rate Of increase in weight,
in three years he would be the worlds
heaviest man.

Cincinnati, Sept. Ex-senator Fora
ker has prepared a statement which
will be made public tonight replying
to the recent charges made by Hearst
and Roosevelt. In addition he bitterly
assails Hearst, Taft and the president
charging Taft with consorting with
Standard Oil magnates himself and de-
clating that Roosevelts actions indi-
cate guilty conscience.
In the opening paragraph Foraker
declares the president showed bias in
accepting as true all the charges. He
denies he acted improperly in accept
ing employment from the Standard
Oil company, and says there was no
secret about it. He produces letters
to i. I'VE that after the government
began its attack upon. the Standard
Oil he declined to accept a retainer
from them. He charged that Hearst
had other letters in addition to those
which he gave out, which if made pub
lie at the same time would have
shown how harmless was his connect
ion with the Standard people.

Put OH Bold Front While
Under Fire
SUMMONED TO CHICAGO
Enroute to Meet Bryan and other
Democratic Leaders Who Summon
Him for conferenee-HaskeIl Calls
President . "Four-fusher" and
Rascal.

Kansas City, Sept. 25.- Governor
Haskell, treasurer of the democratic
national committee, passed thru Kan
sas City early today en- route from
Guthrie to Chicago, where he confers
with Bryan and leaders Of the demo-
cratic national organization regarding
the charges recently made against the
governor by President Roosevelt.
Haskell, during his brief stop between
trains, talked freely with newspaper
representatives, but declined to reply at
this time to the additional accusations
put out in New York last night by
Hearst.
Last night Hearst sad:
Haskell is not only a Standard OIL
tool and crooked railroad promoter, but
a steel trust organizer"
Calls Roosevelt . "Four-flusher."
Haskell denied that he intended to re-
sign his position as treasurer of the
democratic national committee. Re-
garding Hearst's charge coupling him
with the steel trust, Haskell said he
felt highly honored at being classed
with Schwab, Carnegie and Morgan. He
denied he had been in New York city
in 1896 at the gold democratic meeting
in Madison Square garden and had ap-
plauded attacks made upon Bryan. He
declared that Roosevelt "is the biggest
four -f1usher in the political business
today" He added:
q "You ought to hear what they think
Of the rascal down in Oklahoma"
Does Not Intend to Resign.
Haskell, when asked about the report
that he intended resigning as treasurer
Of the national committee, said:
There is absolutely nothing to 1t. OF
course I'll admit that recent develop
ments have necessitated a little haste
in my going to Chicago, bur my resig-
nation is out of the question. It Is sim

taken hand in the matter of the Pral-

state gas line"
