VISITING TEACHERS
INSPECT SCHOOLS
SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
AT DAVIS AND TEACHERS ARE
PLEASED WITH OUR SCHOOLS.

It is seldom that the preacher
and the teacher ever have an op-
portunity to observe the work being
done by others of their profession,
for the reason that when others are
busy they are busy also. But Supt
Thomas Youngblood and his corps Of
eleven teachers reversed things to-
day and dismissed their own schools
in the town of Davis and came 10
Ardmore to spend the day here Wis
iting the city schools. Supt. Evans
has devoted the day to the visiting
teachers and has taken them to all
the schools of the city.
Supt. Youngblood said he has chos-
en- to visit the Ardmore schools for
the reason that they have the rep
utation of being the best schools in
the state. In the course of his re-
marks he said Davis was a city
vi low Dut tiiat IL heid oN~Iiool
ings better than any in Ardmore.
Your city has the best schools in
the state" he said, but not the best
equipments
Supt. Youngblood is from a family
of teachers, he is a garduate of the
A. and NJ. College of Teras and is
one of the best educators in Okla
homa. In speaking of his teachers
he said there was never a better
corps Of teachers anywhere than
his and that they work with har.
mony and everything was unit in
his schools. The entire day was
spent here inspecting and visiting
the schools.
This is the second time this year
that other educators have visited
the city schools. The first visit was
from State Superintendent Wilson
and several of the leading college
men of the state.

ger is a poor Judge of time. He bor-
rowed $50 of Phillips, said he would
be back in a minute, and has not
returned.

Colonel White, great many peo
Company is disposed to be antago-
nistic to the Commercial Club, and
to clear the atmosphere in this di.
rection, wish you would make a
statement in relation to the mat
ter?"
Il am very much surprised to hear
that there is any such feeling. Moth
ing could be more foreign to the
facts. The Industrial Company is an
tagonistic to nothing that makes for
the best interests of Ardmore; and
| wish to be thoroughly understood
as being a friend and booster for
our Commercial Club, and every
thing else that is laboring for the
advancement of the commercial in
terests of this city No organization
can and is doing the work along this
zine that our Commercial Club is. If
you will refer to the officials of that
organization | think that they will
as emphatically state this as i do.
The Industrial Company is working
in another direction than the Com
mercial Club, and in conjunction
with it in every way possible.
"The object and purposes of the
Industrial Company is to handle Ger.
tain meritoriofs properties surround
ing the city, placing the endorsement
of its one hundred business men be-
hind 1t, and using every cent of the
profits derived from the sale of these
properties for the establishment Of
industrial enterprises for the bene-
fit of the whole city. This is work
beyond the purvue of commercial
organization, and is as essential,
when worked in conjunction with
the Commercial Club, as can be con-
ceived.
please emphaticalY deny hny
such theory. The Industrial Company
is not only enthusiastically in ac-
cord with the Commercial Club, but
believe the most of our stockhold-
ers are individual members of that
body of boosters and are doing all
in their power for the advancement
of the clubs interest

in the revolution. This statement OF
'anchez Azcona comedies with one
de last week by, Minister Liman-
y who stated that he had lit
tie .fluence with his son. That the
elder Madero would welcome peace
is doubtless true, and so would a
large majority of the residents OF

ed not to yield, and, on the other
hand, Francisco j. Madero, fighting
either patriotically or fanatically for
something the government cannot
grant without admitting defeat.
Little Change Lately.
So far as the war itself is con
cerned, there has been little change
in the last five days. The rebels
are largely in control of the rural
districts in Chihuahua, Sonora and
parts of Zacatecas, while throughout
the country detachments of rebels
genuine bandits in some cases-ap-
pear here and there. These smalle"
bodies of insurrectos report but in

Madero, but they do, nevertheless.

can army engaged, so that whether

aid the revolutionary cause.
So far as the larger towns are
concerned, they are all yet in the
control of the government. That the
rebels might take one or two of
these is probable. but that they could
hold them Is quite another thing.
They have no men to waste in gar.
risoning cities.
Presidents Message.
Here in the capital great interest
is being shown in the presidents
message to congress, which will be
read on the evening of April 1. 1t is
reliably reported that it will be one
of the most remarkable documents
the president has ever sent to con-
gress, inasmuch as it will contain
recommendations for a revision Of
the electoral laws, a revision of the
system of taxation, greater freedom
in state elections and a curtailment
in power Of jefe politicos.
Speculation as to Minister.
Lively speculation is being indulg-
ed in as to the identity of the Min
lister of Interior, the only post now
vacant in the new cabinet. 1T still
appears probable that the post will
go to Teodoro Dehesa, governor of
the state of Vera Cruz, although a
man said to be considered is En-
lilo Pimilelte. former governor of
Oaxaca. 1t is said the official an
nouncement of the minister's ap
pointment will be made either to-
morrow or Sunday or preceding the
convening Of congress.
Francisco Leon de la Barra is eX-
pected here tomorrow. He will take

GRAVE MEXICAN SITUATION

General Navarro has been forced to
surrender Juarez and Madero has
proclaimed himself provisional presi-
dent of the republic and established
his capital in the captured city. 1t is
doubtful, however, if his government
will last for any length of time, for he
is evidently a "king without a scep-
tre.' While the men who won the
battle were ostensibly fighting to over
throw the Diaz government, as a mat
ter of fact they were battling against
all government and authority. Should
another leader arise, they would un-
doubtedly join his standard and fight
against Madero.
The average Mexican "hombre'
has but one ambition, and that is to
keep supplied with "ElToro' tobacco,
cigarette papers, coffee and tortillas.
If to these SHOULD be added a bottle of
"mescal' and a deck of cards his hap.
piness is complete. BY roaming through
the country pillaging the small vii
lagos and ranches, he can obtain these
"necessaries' in a manner much more
to his liking than by working for them.
President Diaz has formed a true
estimate of the character of his people.
His regular army has been confined to
convicts from necessity, as any other
kind would be subject to frequent re-
volts. Of a vacillating character, his
people must needs be ruled with a rod
of iron in order to be kept in sub
lection.
Mexico is confronted with a gloomy
future. Diaz is an aid man, and will
probably live but a few years longer
a tmost. When he is gone there will
disappear the last vestige of law and
order and the country will for years
remain in a practical state of anarchy.
There is some talk of intervention
by this country, but it is to be hoped
that it will end in talk. 1t would seem
that our experience with Cuba and the
Philippines should have taught us our
lesson.

AGAINST RECIPROCITY BILL

After a thorough investigation the
Farmers National Congress, with
headquarters at Chicago, has declared
against Canadian reciprocity for the
following reasons:
"There can be no doubt that the
Canadian trade agreement would seri-
ously injure millions of our farmers.
The prices of grains and farm animals
are much less than a year ago. This
reduction means not that the profits of
the farmer have beer reduced by so
much, but hat nearly all has been
wiped out.
"The price of hogs on the Illinois or
Iowa farm in the last thirty days has
been only sixty cents of the price in
the same period of 1910, but the prices
of meats to the city consumer are near
