To the Ardmorelte:

To the Ardmoreite:
the best way to judge of what a
man really is, will always be to
find out what his neighbors think of
him.
To your request for an opinion of
Ardmore's candidate for Governor,
shall have nothing to say about his
ability as an orator, or his opinion
on public questions. Of these, the
voters OF the State will have ample
opportunity TO judge.
But / could say much of his pri
vate life, if that be of any import
ance in political campaign. And I
hold that in these days of deception
and graft, a mans private character
Is of more Importance to the people
than anything else. What a man is
in his home life, is an uDerring
guide to what he will do in public
office.
Whether Lee Cruce is fitted 20 be
Governor, so far as ability and the
saCredness ot his opinions IN public
questions 81, the citizens of this
State are capable of Judging for
themselves. But whetler his ability
would be exerted IN The rish, di-
rection. and whether he would hon
estly carry out his promises and
policies. can best be determined by
knowing what kind of a man he is
in his everyday life. And it is here
that we think our candidate shows
to splendid advantage.

Mans Private Character
More Important than Views
On Public Questions

There is not man who knows Lee
Cruce, but will take his word without
question an any matter of business.
There is not a man in Ardmore who
would believe any report that reflect
ed upon his honesty or cast a shadow
upon his purity or moral integrity.
No man ever heard him say aught
against his neighbor that was not
true.
Everyone knows he Is a model hus.
band and father. 1t is known of all
men that he believes in the family,
and the sanctity of the home; that he
is a public spirited, progressive. pat
riotic citizen. No worthy local enter.
prise ever lacks his support. No evil
that Injuries his neighbor's purse or
morals. escapes his condemnation.
He not only believes theoretically in
the principles of Christianity but ex-
emplifies it in his daily life, and en-
pnaSlZeS II Dy earnest, active WOrK IN
the church.
In all these relations he so bears
himself that every man and woman
who knows him believes in him.
And We know that If he were elected
governor, he would carry with him TO
work of that great office, all those
qualities that so endear him to his
neighbors.
And If he is elected. the people Of
the whole state will have the same
high opinion of him that his neighbors
now have.

iary consideration to the interests of
the whole people. And this, too, with
out any affectation of altruism, and
without the cant and the Hypocrisy
of the place-seeking politician who
proceeds upon the theory that the end
will justify the means. With Lee
Cruce the means must justify the end
or he will not employ them.
| followed his course through his
first campaign and supported him TO
the end. The record of that campaign
is behind hint stands like a monI'
ument to his greatness in the pursuit
of victory, wherein he conducted him
self at all times like man who was
captain of his soul and master of his
fate, and to his greatness of spirit like
wise In the aftermath of the battle
when victory fell away from him and
the fortunes OF war were with his
great opponent in the race. Defeat
made no change in his bearing as a
man. as citizen or as a democrat.
With knightly courage he took up the
banner Of his party under the leader
ship of the man who had wrested the
victory of the nomination from him,
that the principles of democracy must
be established with the birth of the
new state, he fought the fight to the
end, in the face of adverse criticism,
and did his share to place Oklahoma
in the ranks of the democratic states.
And later in the year 1908 when the
masked batteries of the enemies of the
state were opened and their fires di-
rected against the state administration
with a violence and virulence that
made many a timid trimmer sulk and
dodge, Lee Cruce came forth from his
home and his business, of his own
volition and accord, and placed him
self in the front rank of the defenders
of Oklahoma and hurled manly de-
flance at the traducers and slanderers.
Throughout the present campaign,
from its very inception, | have watch
ed his course and have kept track CT
his public bearing and utterances. He
comes before the people in the same
plain and simple guise, with the same
the same clearness of pur-
pose, the same honesty and upright
ness of character and motive, that
have always accompanied and attend
ed him-a true apostle of democracy,
with clean and unmistakable mes
sage to deliver. Unheralded by clap
trap, with no catch phrases in his
mouth, the trick of the demagogue, to
tickle the ears of the unthinking, he
has told the people of the state from
every platform where he has ild-
dressed them and in every document
he has written, his views upon the is
sues now before the voters of the
state.
He has lodged nothing. He has
nothing. He has equivocat-
ed nothing. Wherever and whenever
he has spoken, every man who heard
him, knew just where and how he
stands upon every public question.
He has left no words behind him to
be twisted about, he has left no ut
terance with double. meaning behind
which he might seek shelter in some
possible contingency of the future.
Whatever he has said is capable of but
one Interpretation and that the one
that his words intended and that he
meant to be conveyed
His attitude throughout the cam
paign so far has been splendid from

The Bull Snake.

The bull snake. species OF pine
snake, inhabits the shady pine woods
along the Atlantic coast from New Jer-
sey to Florida, but other species are
found almost everywhere except In
New England. The bull snake IS quite
harmless, but is powerful construct
or. It lays eggs and feeds upon birds,
rodents and eggs. 1t swallows an egg
whole, and after the egg has passed
few inches down the throat-where
1t forms large swelling-the serpent
lifts its head, elevates its back and
cxerts a downward pressure until the
shell breaks. Owing to curious con-
striction of its epiglottis its hiss Is so
loud and so we'll sustained as to re-
semble the sound of redhot iron being
plunged in water. The maximum
length Of these snakes is seven and
half feet. Their color IS white, with
the exception Of the head and back,
the former being spotted black and the
latter brown.-Wide World Magazine.

TUESDAY EVENING, DEC. q
a Joke on the King.

Sir Ernest Cassel was persona Grata
with King Edward VII. AS matter
of fact there was 4 curious and strik-
Ing resemblance between the back
view Of the late king and that OF Sir
Ernest. It was so pronounced that the
great financier was known among his
friends as "Windsor Castle"
There is a good story and true ono
told In connection with this. 1t hap
pened at garden party at Windsor
castle. 4 well known peer Of the realm
was strolling about when, as he
thought, he spotted Sir Ernest sitting
In a chair. Going toward him on tip
toe, he gave him resounding smack
on the SHOULDER.
"Hello. old Windsor Castle" be cried,
"How are you?"
The occupant Of the chair, startled
turned around. 1t was King Edward,
who. unaware Of Sir Ernests nick
name, was for q time exceedingly
vexed at this undue liberty. However,
when the circumstances were ex-
planned to him he enjoyed the joke
hugely.-London NJ. A. ?.
