those with courage to buy when con able Purchases of the better class of coppers, therefore, is to be con- mended at this time.
 It has been evident for some months that copper stocks are in very strong hands. Those who purchased on the extreme decline have generous prof its, but are not inclined to realize upon them, as there is no other class of securities into which they can transfer their investments to better advantage.
 Copper companies have reduced their costs greatly during the past year, and in consequence will earn former dividends on lower price of copper Dividends in most cases have been curtailed more than has been absolutely necessary, and the finan- cial and physical condition of the companies have been decidedly i'm proved thereby. Several plans of con solidation and expansion will be car ried out when general conditions inn prove and the market advances, and these will help to stimulate higher prices.
 Not for years before has the amount of coppers carried on margin been so small as at present, and the technical market position is sound. It is believed that the short interest in the copper is very small, for while traders have shown very little inclina, ton to purchase, they have been too cautious to sell the cppers short under prevailing conditions. Altogether, therefore, copper stocks are muci the most attractive purchases in the stock market. Railroad stocks in many in stances face reduved dividends, while the coppers are facing increased divi- dends.

STOCKS JUST
 ABOUT HELD STATIONARY
That Was the Best They Could Do Yesterday-North Butte and Amalgaamted Show a Great Deal of Strength.
CBy Frank J. Crab

The best the markets could do to day was to hold their own. The ad- vance of yesterday did not continue ill today's market, and with the excep- ton of few stocks we had the dull aPc listless market We have been hay
 ing. The railroads were fairly active
 during the day, but at the close sold to the level of yesterdays close. lA the coppers, Amalgamated and North Butte were the only ones to show any strength whatever. The balance of the list was lifeIesss and shows scarce ly no changes over yesterday. Local curbs, although firm, are dull, with but limited trading. Shattuck holds well and with a good demand at $15. but there is little coming out. Su- perior shows some demand at s14.75. There will be little doing now until after the election, when the general public will again get into the market and We may then expect better prices.

WHAT WILL 1T MEAN TO ARD
MORE2

Editor ArdmCreite:
There is so much to be said in ia
vor OF Ardmore taking on "A com
mission form of government that the
space to cover the subject would
take all the newspapers in the city,
but | am going to refer to only one
city in the article to show what has
been accomplished in the last 80
days ard then make comparison
with our own city.
The city of Fort Worth. Texas,
is under commission form of gov
ernment and six months ago the firm
of Lownard-Lester Rock Asphalt Co.
went To the commissioners of that
city and proposed to install "A mu-
perty owners of Fort Worth could
save nearly Sl.U0 per yard in paw
ing. The commissioners accepted our
proposition at once, and We are now
laying the best pavement there that
was ever put down in that city and
at cost of little more than hall
of what they We're paying before
under the old contract system.
Before purchasing this plant one con
struction company had bid to pave
one contract at $3.50 per yard, and
this same paving company now has
in bid TO do the same work tor
$73,0O0.OO less than their bid before
the purchase OF t.e Fort Worth mu.
nicipal plant TO see what this plant
means to the property owners OF
Fort Worth let's just think of a say
ing OF $4,000 to the people owning
property ON one street.
When the paving was let To pave
Ardmore We were glad to get somc
construction company to come here
and do the work at S2.27 IL per yard
but under a commission system the
city of Ardmore can do the same
amount of paving and save the prop
erty owners the large sum of $4,000
which is no little amount
am not guessing at these figures,
for our firm made a proposition to
the mayor and aldermen of this city
some ten days ago TO furnish the ma
terial and guarantee a saving OF 90
cents per yard.
do not believe that a muuicipa,
plant will pay under our present sys-
TEN, as we have no way OF lodging
the responsibility in any city Off
cial for work done in this depart
ment, and besides that, the city Of
ficials cannot afford TO neglect their
own business to make success OF
city affairs.
There never has been an argument
yet against commission form of
government outside of political
source, and that should have no
bearing upon those who are anxious
to see Ardmore grow into a great
city.
am satisfied that the people OF
Ardmore want new charter and u
commission form OF government and
know that delay means less to
our city, so let ms take it up and
push it TO a finish,

why Did He Waltz

Mr.. Roosevelt begins his letter: "In
view of Mr.. Hearst's disclosures about
Foraker, I make public the following let
ter, etc, ETC."
Then, Mr.. Roosevelt, would you have
made public this letter if Mr.. Hearst had
made no disclosures? You join with Mr.
Hearst in denouncing Mr.. Foraker. You
would have accepted Mr.. Foraker's sup
port for your fat boy if Hearst had not
secured a bundle of Standard Oil letters,
would you?
Why did you not play David to Fora
ker's Goliath months ago, and not leave
the David job to Hearst? Now you are
playing Jonathan role to Hearst's David
and you and Hearst are doing a Salome
dance with Foraker's head on Standard
Oil charger.

Let Him Speak for Himself.

Complaining that Mr.. Taft is not
strengthened by having it appear that it
is necessary for Mr.. Roosevelt to continu-
ally speak for him, the New York Times,
a Taft organ, says:
But would it not help Mr.. Taft more,
not only in the West but in the East, If
such things were done not for him, but
by him? Would he not impress himself
upon the country much more forcibly if
he spoke for himself instead of having
Mr.. Roosevelt continually speak for him ?
Consider for a moment the situation and
the behavior of the two candidates respec-
lively. Mr.. Bryan is in the West, in the
East, everywhere, and everywhere seen
and heard If there is something to be
said he says 1t. He is the most active
and aggressive candidate for the presiden-
cy who ever appeared before the people.
Emphatically he is his own campaign. He
dominates the scene. Behind his conspic-
uous figure one only dimly and now and
then perceives few minor and negligible
Democratic personages."
