COUNTY
CORN A WINNER
CORN GROWN ON FARM OF FELIX
x. WEST LANDS PRIZE AT CO.
LuMeUS, o.

Felix X. West vas elated yesterday
when ne learned that the corn which
was grown on his farm on Wilson
creek in this county, few miles east
Of Ardmore, had won the prize at the
International Corn Show in Columbus,
Ohio. This corn was raised on land
that cost s1250 an acre, it was not
irrigated nor fertilized, and 50 bushels
were raised 10 the acre and 100 ears
weighed out two bushels and eight
pounds. This Is another big victory
for corn growing in southern Okla
homa. This land after deducting rea-
sonabl0 wages for cultivation made
more than twice the cost Of the land
in one crop. Lands that are selling
in this country from ten to fifteen
dollars an acre are worth one hundred
dollars and will produce crops that
will pay good interest on that invest
mcnt.

LOCAL FANS ARE
GETTING ACTIVE
IF ARDMORE WANTS BASE BALL
MUST GET BUSY-coMMITT
TO BEGIN WORK.

Whether Ardmore Will be one OF
the cities in the new Texas-OKlahoma
league of baseball clubs recently or
ganized will be definitely settled
within the next few days.
A committee of responsible bust
ness men of the city, one of whom
will act as treasurer, will start at
once to raise the necessary amount
to insure Ardmores being in the
league. This committee will have to
raise small amount of money, as
the down town park is to be con
structed and incidental expenses met.
The promoter of this league, Mr..
Rogers, has convinced the fans of
this city that he thoroughly under
stands the organization of a league,
and as he has consented to take
charge of the local club it is an as
sUed fact that in the event that
Ardmore comes into the league, which
is admitted that it will, lovers of
baseball will be treated to good sport
here the coming season
Letters are being received daily
from managers of the big leagues
who will train in Texas this spring,
for dates, and active measures will
be taken at once toward the erec-
tion of down town park for week
day games, as the big leaguers will
not be here to fill Sunday dates,
those already being taken. The Den
yer management wired today, asking
for dates, and an answer must be
given at once.
The committee will get to work and
raise the necessary amount in a few
days and insure Ardmore's position
IN the new league.

OWEN
SEEKS ADJOURNMENT
SAYS PRESENT CONGRESS HAS
BEEN REPUDlATED BY PEOPLE
AND SHOULD ADJOURN NOW.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 5.-Insist-
ing that the people at the polls in No
ember had repudiated the sixty-frst
congress Senator owen in the senate
declared that congress should at once
adjourn and give the next congress an
opportunity to Immediately carry out
the mandate of the country, even go
ing so far as to declare that the pres
ent congress had no ethical right to
pass even the appropriation bills and
fiA the fiscal policy of the government
up to July /, 1912.
The Oklahoma senator's proposition
was in part as follows:
The American people are in my
opinion, opposed to giving bonuses
to giving gratuities, or to giving
bounties to the few at the expense oi
the many, and having voted out oi
power those who believe in such a
doctrine, the country is now present
ed with the spectacle OF the repudi'
ated agents in congress attempting
to pass a measure after they have
been repudiated and before the ar
rival of the legislature authorities
who truly represent the will of the
American people. l respectfully in
vite those who control this body by
the present majority to perform their
duty to the American people by ad
journing sine die, in order that the
newly elected representatives of the
people, those who really represent
the American people, be given an op
portunity to pass the appropriation
bills and other legislation of immedi
ate necessities.
What right has this, the sixty-frst
congress, having been repudiated by
the people of the United States, to
pass appropriation bills amounting to
thousand million dollars and fix the
fiscal policy OF the United States up
to July, 1912, when this congress had
been repudiated in November, 1910?
Is this right and fair? IS it right as
moral or as an ethical proposition
"Mr President, it is part and
parcel of the ancient machine poll
tics which has laid down the rules for
government and which takes out of
the hands of the American people
the means of making effective the
will of the American people in the
legislative halls of this country. 1t
is my judgment that the proper con-
duct for the third session of the sixty
first congress is to pass an act de-
claring that all future congresses shall
meet the first Monday in December
after the regular biennial elections;
that the sixty-second congress shall
meet Immediately upon the adjourn
ment of the sixty-first congress, and
that the sixty-frst congress do now
adjourn"

TELLS OF GOOD
BOOST Scheme

Editor Evening Bulletin
All good citizens of Hawaii, when they
find moments lull in the onrush
of local events, which are at present
of the three-speed, sliding gear,
transmission variety, should devote
those lulls, which are few and far be-
tween and getting more so every day,
to the incubation of some boost
scheme or promotion stunt.
Such moment came to me yester-
day, and for the object of promotion
would suggest the following:
At some point in the Promotion
Committee rooms there be placed q
series of Hawaiian Island views, each
one to be of one Of the attractive
spots of the group, such as the Pail,
the Volcano, lao Valley, Rainbow
Falls, and in fact, any special feature
that the tourist would possibly be in
terested In. Let these views be of
fairly good size, and each placed In
stall by itself, under n reflected
light, and to be viewed through a
lens that will magnify many times
and bring out beauties that would
otherwise fail to catch the eye.
Alongside of each view might be
placed an information card giving the
locality Of the subject, the best route
to get there. transportation charges,
auo and hotel rates, the time consum-
ed in making round trip to that
point and other information that
would not only be helpful to a tourist
but a temptation as we'll
