We congratulate the democratic
party for the inserting in our consti-
tuition of the two-cent fare provision
on railways in this state, and the
placing of the same into practical
operation. Such operation shows that
it has come to stay. The railway
reports for the fiscal year 1908 show
that the passenger earnings under
the two-cent basis is in excess of
that Of the previous year under the
three.cent fare basis, BY this provi-
sion alone the democratic party has
made an annual saving TO the people
of Oklahoma more than the taxes me-
cessary to support the state govern
ment.

-sApHo- AND HIS WIFE.

Sapho was merely galley Doy IN Ine

newspaper. He was called Sapho be-
cause
But that is another story.
He was small young man. Nor
was he handsome. But his energy and
cheerfulness were in inverse proper
lion to his size and lack Of pulchri-
tude.
One day Dan Cupid, who cares little
for looks, but is strong on hearts,
marked him for his own.
Sapho loved a winsome Kansas City
maiden. And she, on her part, saw
qualities In him that others did not
see.
Following established precedent the
course of true love did not run smooth.
When the couple asked to marry, the
parents Of the girl said, Height Of
foolishness, on bis meager wages"
But the matrix is cast" said Sapho.
Then, the printers conspiring, he and
the girl were married.
The sequel?
Sapho's optimism won The parents
said the girl might have done worse. "
And the twaiL have already proved
that two souls with but G single
thought can be comfortably kept in
two bodies en- Sapho's wages-which
have been raised.
And this Is Sapho's wife's recipe for
happiness: IL would rather live In a
dirt floor cabin with the man 1 love
than TO be supported in luxury by q
husband not my choice"
All, wise little womanI
That was the recipe the old alchem
