Elk City boasts Of being born in a
corn field and clothing itself with
tents. That was eight years ago and
now claims to he town Of some
5000 inhabitants.
Caddo county can boast Of town
that started under same conditions.
Our county seat -Anadarko is stu
ated on land that produced bumper
crops Of corn during the opening Of
the country TO white settlement. The
city Of tents TO east and known as
"Rag Town" before the townsite
was sold was quite town of IT'S kind
and is remembered by many of the
first inhabitants of Caddo county.
That was eight years ago also, and
what a vast change the enterprisinR
people of Anaiarko have wrought on
what was once corn field. Many
acres have been added to the original
townsite to make room for the grow
ing population and the end is not yet
in sight. Anadarko claims a popula-
tion of 8, 200 and at the present rate
IL will not be long before she will be
springing that claim to 10, 600 Fort

Be remembered That an English
baker who has baked on both sides of
the Atlantic writes that the reason
bread-bread, mind you-is cheaper
in England than in America is because
American flour is 81. barrel cheap
er over there than il is here. Am
erican sugar is also one third cheaper
there than here. and American iron
and steel are much cheaper across the
water. Thus are the American peo
pie tariff burdened with a tariff that
was recently fixed to suit the presi-
dent and the trusts
And the foreigner gets his Ameri-
can goods at reduced figures. It's a
great deal cheaper to be a foreigner
than to be an American and liye in
the United States of TRUSTS.
But aint it a shame?

that howled against the Roosevelt re

republican president, and who re-
fused to give him deserved credits,
will now sit up and take notice that
the present incumbent will give them
something really worth bowling loud

During the coming year the United States government will have places for several thousand men in the railway mail service and other departments. In- asmuch as the average salary of these employees is $500 per year it is strange that more young men do not try for the positions.

Cotton MiII at Jacksonville

The machinery has been ordered and il is hoped to have in operation by the latter part of April the Verona cotton mills at Jacksonville, which, if is said, will inaugurate departure in the south by utilizing the product Jf the two Ide mills adjacent in turn ing out a finished product ready for the market.
 The Verona mills have 8 capacity or zoo looms with half that number 10 be placed in motion on the beginning of activities. On the other extreme, however, the plants hard yarns can be readily turned into lace curtains ana other delicate fabrics.
 The Verona mills are under the gen oral management of George P. 1de, who has earned the title Of "ca aptafn or iudustry" by his activities in that city and the plant will be operated by cleo tricity in conjunction with the two oth- CT mills of which Mir. Ide is presi- ,ient. These mills have combined ca- pacity of s7,000 spindles and have been Ironounced by experts to be the most modern plants of the kind in the south. Gov. B. B. Conner, a cotton mill ex- rert, is credited with the statement that they are the finest he has ever seen.
 The use of electric motor in the op- eration of the mills is said to have a most marked effect upon the product, eliminating certain defects which are said to result from relaxation when steam is employed. It is MT. Ide's idea 10 make Jacksonville the leading cot ton mill town in the south and he is making rapid progress in this direc- ton.

 MATCHES PLAYED

Boston, February 18.-There were five matches played and three defaults in the national amateur racquet championship tournament here today, bringing the event down to the second round. Decidedly the best match of the day came late in the afternoon when H. F. Mccormick of Chi cago. the titleholder. defeated William Stackpole of New York in a four-game match. The latter gave fine exhibition in the first three games, winning the first, but losing the next two by narrow margins.
 In the final game he was so far spent that he was unable to put up a very stiff argument.

Anniston, February 1sl Especial John
 B. Knox of this city, yho recently an- nounced as a candidatei for the United States Senate against Josn H. Bankhead and Frank s. White, was seen this morning in regard to tie statements of Senator Bankhead and Captain White in which they deny that hey are aligned with either of the gubrnatorial candi- dates in the field at the present time.
 q am not surprised ts note that Sen ator Bankhead prefers to sit on the fence, said Colonel Knox, referring to the fact that Senator Hnkhead did not take a stand on the recent amendment question until few days before the cleo ton; but am surprised he continued, that Captain White should choose a seat beside him on that perch AS far as I am concerned, the offfce which l am seeking Is higher than that sought by the two gubernatorial candidates. I could af- ford to state my choice in that race, and 1 think you will agree with me that l hao the courage of my convictions In saying so. l hope you will understand, however that have the highest respect for the ability and character of Mir. Mallory. and furthermore, that do not want to make this & personal fight among Senator Bankhead, Captain White and myself, which should be precluded by the dignity of the office which we are seeking. re- viewed their records In my address to the voters and that Is all that I care to say about them at the present time
 Mir Knox says that the keynote of ilis campaign Is conservatism, and that he will fight for what he considers the best interests of his state and party. This was the basic principle Of Thomas Jefferson, he says, when the latter touhd- ed the democratic party in opposition to the radical federalists which party, he continued has been perpetuated in the republican party of today, and hence, the final hope of democratic success In na- tional affairs lies directly along lines of conservatism.
 "The country is tired of radicalism, he said, and when I say this l do not mean to be talking solely about the liquor fight in this state, but the radicalism along all lines as represented by Conner. Glenn and Hoke Smith in the south ana Roosevelt as the horrible example or the nation
 MT. Knox continues to receive eongrat- ulations on his bold stand and he Is or ganizing a strong campaign which will be waged in every section of the state. He seems confident of his success.

who knows to whit greater heights?
1t is hard to keep an Ohio governor
down. especially If he succeeds in
holding his job a second term. And
that brings us to Harmon.
The friends Of Governor Harmon
are quite frank in saying that this
years campaign is but preliminary to
the White House in 1912. Possibly
that is one reason that william H.
Taft has shown a fitful interest in
the outcome. The careers of Harmon
and of Taft have been strangely in
termingled. They were born in the
same county, and, while it is not on
record that they courted the same girl
it is certain they have held the same
Offices and no doubt will seek to do so
in future.
When Harmon resigned the Judge
ship in Cincinnati Taft was appointed
to fill the vacancy. Stranger yet. the
appointment was made by Joseph B.
Foraker, then governor. Somewhat
later Grover Cleveland, in looking
over the country for an attorney gen
eral, saw the lank and somewhat rug
ged form of Harmon. who up to that
time had been known only as law
yer whose fame extended scarcely be
yond his own town.
