Put IL All on Exhibition to Make

The Norwcgians are always trying
TO put the best foot forward and the
do 1t in reference to marriage as well
as in reference to other matters.
1t is said that n young man once
went out to seek wife and came 70
a farmhouse where there was more
wit than money. The only thing OF
which the farmer could boGst was one
new sleeve to his coat. This must be
made the most OF. "Pray take seat"
he SAID Hospitality. "But this room is
shockingly dusty" and, so saying, he
went about wiphg tables and benches
with his new sleeve, while he kept the
old one behind him.
h, His wife possessed one new shoe
and one only, but she made the most
of it by pushing the furniture In place
with it and keeping the other hidden
beneath her skirts. 1T is very untidy
here" she said. Everything Is out Of
place"
Then they called to The daughter to
come and put things to rights. But
the anly new thing she possessed was
a cap. So she kept putting her head
in at the door and noddug and nod

Thus they all tried to make the
young man believe that the household
was well to do.-Detroit Free Press.

Murray and they DO not lose an oppor
tunity to stand upon the street corners

umns Of the papers make known their
opposition to him. Outside OF this
class, however, and around the home
circle, the fire-side and through the
country district, among that class OF
people whose interest in government
is to see an honest, faithful admins
tration Of The law without favor to any,
and ali equal opportunity to all. Bill
Murray represents the hope, and is the
inspiration.

derision they cali him Alfalfa BilI.g
For the same reason Lincoln was nick

men were signally hcnored by the peo-
pie among whom they lived in their
days and each with distinguished abili-
ty and scrupulous integrity discharged
every trust imposed upon him. Neither
OF them were ever beaten for Office.
Bill Murray has never been beaten,
and his simple, honest. sincere lite
appeals to the sentiment Of the very
best people OF Oklahoma.
We have in Oklahoma more indie
pendent thinkers and voters than they
have in any other state in this union,
men who hold the good Of their coun-
