D the Editor of the Ardmoreite:

To the Editor of the Ardmoreite
| hear much about white man civil
ization in Ardmore, and leave my al
lotment and move to town to enjoy
conveniences, the palefaces have
made.
drink no booze" and spend my
time observing and thinking. | see
one o. l.. DENIES. No | think he not
the same DENIES that go fishing with
Spragins and Poland. He is some 9TH
Ell DENIES. And he, this other Den
mes, is so good friend to working man.
1 see big union card in his window.
He is so good friend to his clerks that
he keep them inside at work on holi-
days and after labor hours, while other
clerks get the sunburn from fishing on
the creeks.
or course, the working man is so
good friend to DENIES because he so
good friend to them. Then Mr. Den
mes, he be so good friend to the county
that he discovers all about how the
county commissioners build the court
house and he protect the people from
county eXtravagances Then, he, Mr.
DENIES, wants to tell the Commercial
Club how to build the town, but he
withholds his monthly dues and his
wise counsel from the club meetings.
He, also, be good friend to property
owners on Broadway. He own no
property on Broadway and the paving
costs him nothing, but he kicks up the
concrete while it be green and he tells
the people that their concrete is no
good. He be good friend to protect
them.
Mr.. Dennes, he cannot talk about
oil and gas and asphalt and zinc and
new railroads, but he talk all the time
about the graft" His mind be made
up to see and magnify all the evil
things and see none of the good.
Now, what me think is that Mr..
/ DENIES should run for mayor, he be
so smart about his asphalt paving and
this concrete curbing; he be so good
friend to the working man that all
the labor people would flock into his
camp because he is so good friend to
union labor. 1t is shame for him to
measure calico while there is so much
useful work he could be doing to show
these concrete men how to mix their
mortar and to show the paving men
how to lay the asphalt.
Ardmore would be SO good a town
If everybody would sound so many
warning notes as this same man Den
mes. So, / advise all my pale face
friends to follow the footsteps of this
sanity man. He advertise Ardmore
so it attract lots of people and be big
city. Yours respectfully,
"CHICKASAW."

THE ROOSEVELT DAM.
One of the Greatest Projects-Some-
thing of Its Vastness.

Chicago, H., March 1.-THE United
States reclamation service in its work
OF supplying moisture to arid lands
has given the world five of it's larg-
est dams. 1t was quite appropriate
that one of the largest of these, part
of the Salt River project in Arizona,
should be called the Roosevelt Dam in
honor of the man who as president
signed the act which made its con-
struction possible.
Col. Roosevelt, in connection with
his visit to Phoenix, March Is to 20,
will formally dedicate the dam named
in his honor. In this connection 1t
is interesting to note that the 18th
National Irrigation Congress at which
it is expected Col. Roosevelt will be
one of the principal speakers at Chi
cago, Dec. to 8, has for its presi,
dent Hon B. A. Fowler, of Phoenix,
Arizona who for many years was pres
ident of the Salt River Valley Wa
ter Users association.
This immense dam requiring over
four years work and costing in the
neighborhood of $3,50O,000, is $50
feet high, length of base 235 feet and
top 1850 feet. The dam is higher
than the Flat-Iron building in New
York and would hide the capitol at
Washington to the dome. Two four
in-hands could pass on the top. Most
OF the wall rests on stones big enough
for team and wagon to stand on
and weighing sixteen tons each.
The lake formed by the dam extends
back in the valley twenty miles and
holds enough water to flood 1000
square miles foot deep. The re-
claimed land will make $4,000 farms
each large enough to support at least
five people, making homes for fully
125,000 Americans. Each acre it is
estimated will yield yearly crops val.
ued at $50 to 1925.

~ YOU Ndul UP W .NtN iOl ~
with all expenses paid?
1t will be possible for every candi-
date in the contest to win this extra
prize and with the race so close no
doubt a good many will have the
pleasure of taking this delightful trip
at the Ardmoreites expense. Now
these are the conditions:
Any candidate who secures within
one hundred thousand 000000) votes
of the winner of the first capital prize
(The Maytag automobile) will be
awarded a free trip to New York
City with all expenses paid. These
prizes are to be awarded in addition
to the regular prizes as first adver-
tised and any candidate in any district
race stands today, so many candidates
within a few thousand votes OF each
other, at least twenty-five contestants
should be within the required circle.
Anyone who is really working and con
tinues to do so to the end should
easily stay within the limit.
We hope that fifty of the candidates
will be able to win the trip under
these conditions. It means hundreds
of subscriptions for us and we are
willing TO pay for them. This is the
only contest on record where every
candidate entered may win prize.
There is lots of time for new ones to
enter and win this free trip. It's never
too late to get in on good thing and
all the good hustlers in Ardmore and
vicinity should get busy.
This free trip means about week
in New York with side trips to Coney
Island, and up the Hudson. They will
see New York from Old Castle Garden
to River Side Park, nothing will be
left out, not even Chinatown. The
Hippodrome and Eden Museum will be
among the places visited.
Never in the history of newspaper
contests has there been more liberal
offer to those taking part. Each and
every contestant has an equal chance
and we expect to have large party OF
happy people as our guests on this
trip.
Now is the time to get busy, keep
busy every moment and remember
that these trips are given in addition
to the regular prizes of the contest.
After today the contestants will be
permitted to cast 5000 more certifi-
cate votes than the leader had in their
district on the day previous.
Wednesday will be another free vote
day and the contestants should do
their very best to get a supply of
these extra votes.
Don't get discouraged. The con-
test manager has seen many candi-
dates in past contests who would
have been the winner of the automo-
bile If they had stuck 1t out until
the last We made the contest as
short as possible here so that we
would not tire out those who were
trying for the prizes. Tell the peo-
pie that you are determined to win
and you will get more votes than If
you seem afraid that you are going
to be beaten. Confidence is half the
battle.
We know of many subscriptions
that will be given to candidates by
friends who are watching the race,
if they prove themselves worthy.
How do you know how many votes
you will get at the last? Perhaps
some who refused you will think bet
ter of it and help you out at the
last moment. One Of the best candi-
dates in the race has just started.

HAS MANY SETBACKS,
Unpleasant Experience of Lumber
Schooner Stefins ON Latest Trim

The two-masted river schooner J. Stef-
fins, which arrived here yesterday with
lumber from the st. Marys river, had a
long and rough trip from the time she
left here. after discharging her cargo,
until she tied up at the 10th street
wharf. The vessel left here about the
middle of December. just before the first
freeze of the winter came, and went to
the St Marys river. where she loaded
lumber. The freeze caught her in the
st. Marys and kept her from moving for
several days. Finally she was. worked
out of that river and started up the Po-
tomac. She had reached Riverside, about
half way to this city, when the drift ice
caught her, and. being unable to get
tug to tow her to this city, her master
put her about and ran back to the st.
Marys for harbor. There she remained
until about ten days ago, when a start
was made for this port. Foul weather
again caught her and she was forced to
seek shelter in Upper Machodoc creek.
from which point she sailed for this
city a day or two ago.

FISH FROM WINDMILL POINT.
Catch This Season Has Been Larger
Than for Several Years.

Fish from the big haul seine at the
Windmill point fishing shore are being
received here daily by dealers at the
wharf market, and, according to re-
ports, one shad has been caught in the
net, rather remarkable occurrence for
this early in the year. Yesterday and
again this morning several barrels Of
bunch fish, perch, bass, carp, catfish,
rock and other varieties We're received
and were quickly disposed of to the
dealers in the uptown markets. So far
TINS season the catch has been larger
than for several previous years and
unless another freeze comes the pros
poets are for a good winter season
Some few herring are being caught
in the nets in Coan river and other
points in the mouth of the Potomac,
but most of these fish on sale at the
market here are being received from
North Carolina waters. All along the
river the winter fishermen are prepar-
ing to stake out their nets. and within
the next week the winter season will
be in full swing.
