ENEMIES ARM Ih-ARM

1t is possible for political enc
mics to be personally tolerant of
each other, but it is not very of
ten wit messed.
When Senators LaFollette and
Stephenson of Wisconsin. there
fore, marched arm-in-arm to the
Vic Presidents stand the other
day to take the oath, the sight
was one to arouse the riSibles of
the grave head senators who
looked upon the scene.
At home they are probably as
far from an amicable relation
ship as it is possible for two men
to be, but here, in the eyes of the
nations, they were big enough
to lay aside their personal ami
mosities and acquiesce in the
conventions of the Senate and
common d ecency.
There have been in stances in
the history of Arkansas where
these political enmities have
been carried to the excess of a
governor refusing to accompany
his successor to the stand to re-
ceive the oath.
When the political game is
taken SO seriously as all tn at it
is time to take stock of the gains
and ask what the assets may be.
Senators LaFollette and Steph-
ems have given the country an
example ofwhat gentlemen may
be although. politicians.

PAT MCGRORY

The sad news reac he'd this city
last Monday of the death of Pat
McGrory, who at one time was
an honored citizen of this county,
his home during his residence
here being at Emmett. He died
at Shreveport, La, last Sunday
morning. Pat was holding a
position with the railroad at the
time of his death. We were un-
able to learn whether his remains
will be brought to Emmett for
burial or not.

ST. PATRIcK'S DAY

Probably a majority of those
who on the 18th celebrated St.
Patrick's Day were imbued with
the notion that St. Patrick was
an Irishman AMI that is an ami
versary of his birth. But those
who think so are wrong. ST. Pat
rick was not an Irish and though
it is highly probable that ne had
birthday history fails to record
the date. And his parents didn't
call him Patrick. Ireland was
st. Patrick's land only by adopt
ion and by right of evangelical
conquest st. Patrick may never
have driven the snakes and toads
out of Ireland. as tradition says
he did, but he certainly did drive
out paganism, so that for centu-
RES after his death the country
was known as Island OF the
Saints"
This day is the anniversary of
the founding of the first church
in Ireland, at Saul, near Stanford
Laugh, County Down, Ulster, on
March II, 465, or 1444 years ago.
He was born in Scotland sup
posedly in 372 and his baptismal
name was Succat. He was taken
to Ireland when Is years old as
a captive and slave of King
Dalaradia, in which condition he
remained for seven years. He
learned the Irish language and
customs. He went to Gaul later
and became a priest and bishop
taking the name of Patricus upon
bis ordination. He later return

CATHERINE FRANCIS HORNE

U
All that is mortal of this grand
old character will be tenderly laid
to rest today at Moscow church
yard at 10 o'clock. Grandma
Horne, as she was called by
everyone, died Tuesday night,
March %, 1909, at the home Of
her daughter, Mrs. 0. S. Jones,
with whom she has made her
home the most of her widowed
life. She was in her S7th year.
Grandma Horne was h
mother of large family, many
of whom now have silver
threads among the gold" as a
reminder that they, too, are near
ing life's sunset. Six are dead,
four living: J. E. Horne, Mrs. 0.
S. Jones, Mrs. Thad Butcher of
Prescott and Mrs. Polk, of Hope.
AS the death dew gathered on
her marble brow, around her bed
side Gathered her girls" and
bovs"-always girls and boys
to her, though now grown to
mature years with girls and boys
around their own fresides. The
life so long interviewer with
theirs, with fearful eyes they
watched as it, slowly but surely
passed over. The love of a
mother for her children passeth
human understanding. The boys
ane girls who gathered about the
cot of this dying mother and
so bravely fought the Death
Angel, long ago passed out from
the little home circle. Business
cares and their own home circles
have encroached upon their time,
NAV have robbed mother of their
companionship, but she was ever
just the same; rejoicing in their
successes and grieving at their
misfortunes. They may have
grown away from her, but she
never from them. We know
that years hence the memory Of
her unselfihs devotion will make
them better men and women and
her precepts be their guiding
star.
Vain is the attempt to measure
the loss of a mother to her
children; after all the poets have
sung and lovers dreamed there is
no love like mother-love. We
believe the tender care devoted
to those nearest and dearest,
went with her to the better land,
and in the possibilities of eternity
may be needed hereafter. We
fancy her awaiting them in the
place prepared for her, a little
apart from the innumera ole
company in bright array; perhaps
in one of the
-" palaces of ivory
It's windows crystal clear"
of which old Bonar quantity sung.
In the light, not Of the sun,
neither of the moon, we see her
beyond the fields of fadeless as
phodel, under the waving palms,
beside the still waters bordered
with silver lilies. These may be
merely figures, but they bear a
precious meaning to yearning
hearts made for the deep house
hold loves; hearts that will not

RlfFlEs ARE LOTTERIES


ed yesterday afternoon in re-
Spouse to a query from 0. A.
Graves, prosecuting attorney OF
the Eighth judicial district.
Prosecuting Attorney Graves
asked concerning suit clubs, and
the attorney general classified
them strictly as lotteries. and
all other clubs of a similar nature,
as well. Concerning the rattle,
Attorney General Norwood con-
cluded his opinion as follows:
Now, as to the matter OF raj
files: | note that you ask If the
ordinary rafles, where chances
are SOLD and drawing is had, al d
only one wins, is a violation of
the law presume that the
reason you say ordinary rattle
is because in the past raffles
have been quite customary,
especially upon a small scale, and
the frequency of these occur
ences demonstrates that there
is almost an irresistible inclina-
ton on the part of the human
race to enter into any kind of a
scheme in which the element of
luck or chance prevails.
Disposal by chance of a
single PRIZE among purchasers
of separate chances is within
the usual definition of lottery.
Whether a party guilty Of
participating in a rattle should
be proceeded against under lot
te-y statute or under gaming
statute would depend largely
upon the facts of each particular
case. The rattle might be con-
Quoted in some manner that
would be a violation of section
1740 of the Digest. On the other
hand a single prize might be dis
posed of in such a manner as
would be a violation of the lot
terry statute. Like where par
ties buy envelopes, in which are
contained numbers, and the
lucky number drawing the prize,
or some similar plan.
Gambling is gambling, no
matter how conducted, and il
there is any difference in the
manner, plans, schemes and de
vices by the people gambling, it
is one of degree.
In the eyes of the law, parties
who enter into drawings and
other schemes into which the
elements of chance enter. like
the suit clubs, mentioned in your
letter. are guilty of gambling.
like the man at the faro bank,
who coppers the ace with the ex-
pectation that it will fall by the
box, or the man at the roulette
wheel, who places his money
upon a certain number, hoping
that in a lucky turn of the wheel
the ball will stop upon a number
corresponding with the one he
has selected, and thereby yield
him a return at the ratio of
thirty-fve TO one; or, the fellow
who rolls the dice, with the eX-
pectation of throwing seven or
eleven, instead of craps. "

board OF agriculture today threw down

public affairs by awarding the CON

The contract price OF each building
was slS77j, and they are to be- com.

all contracts for building and the

San ANTONIO STREET PAVING

San Antonio, Texas, June IS
Within a few months San Antonio
will have the very best streets of
any city in the state of Texas. Ac.
begin on July 1st. incidentally the
city will take a step that may prove
of interest to other communities. Pro
viding this can be done profitably
an asphalting plant will be acquired
by the city government. Negotia.
tions along this line have already
been opened with an Ohio factory
of asphalting machinery. With It's
own machinery the city would be
in a position to keep on improving
its streets without interruption. Val
liable time, now lost in preparing
estimates and contracts, would thus
be saved.
Experiments now made with a ma.
tive Texas product. called "texico." ."
may ultimately lead to San Anto-
MOS streets being paved with this
material instead of asphalt. TeXico
is a by-product of Texas oil wells
and II is said to be admirably
suited as substitute for asphalt.
Besides this It is said to be much
cheaper. The city. recently. to pre-.
vent the long hauling of gravel has
secured an umber OF gravel pits in

widening have for some time re-
ceived considerable attention in San
Antonio, although it's mileage of

Musical Recital.

ArdTorc may well be proud OF her
music teachers and musical talent.
We honestly believe there is not
another town or city in the entire
state where recital like the one
given at the Broadway Methodist
church by Miss Fosters pupils last
night could be heard Each yea
We are more and more surprised at
the music we hear played at these
recitals. The music is all from the
best composers Of music the world
has ever produced and 1t is played
with as tyle and finish calculated
TO open the eyes of persons who
are not familiar with Ardmore re-
citals. Miss Mildred Fosters re
cital last night was the equal in
every respect To any ever before
given in Ardmore and in some re-
spocts surpassed any previous play
ing. The writer of this article is
used TO hearing good music, but
even she was hardly prepared for
some of the playing she heard last
night. She wishes to say to the
music lovers OF Ardmore that Miss
Fosters class will give second
recital at the Methodist church to-
night. and while they missed some
fine music exquisitely played last
night, there will be some equally
fine tonight, as Miss Foster has
adapted the plan of having some
OF her bestm usic played by her
advanced pupils each night of her re-
ctials.
Miss Foster is a musician OF rare
taste and ability. She is thoroughly
familiar with the worlds best mu-
sic and her Ardmore patrons are
justly proud of her. To the music
lovers of Ardmore we wish to say
they will miss a treat IL they miss
the recital tonight
