The Lesson OF The ElecuI0n

The election of Woodrow Wilson to
the presidency, by the most decisive
majority, with two exceptions, in the
electoral college since the beginning
of our government, is not entirely a
party victory, Notwithstanding the fact
that Governor Wilson and his running
mate, Governor Marshall, of Indiana,
were the regular nominees of the Dem
ocratic party, and Democrats in all
parts of the country are rejoicing over
their election and they naturally feel
that the party itself will profit, in a
largg measure, by it.
II was victory, not only in its first
but its last analysis OF the people them
selves, over party control and party
dictation which have so long held the
upper hand in our national affairs, and
it must be accepted, if it is accepted
rightly and in the righ, spirit by those
who won as we'll as those who lost, as
emphasizing the fact that the people
themselves are really the final arbiters
OF their own destiny, and that when
they chose to do so they can brush
parties and politicians aside and take
into their own hands the direction ol
their own affairs. The Home Friend

The most effective speech mad,
during this entire campaign wa

date for county attorney, last Mon
day night at the Airdome. Mr.
Bleakmore enjoys the reputation o
being one of the best lawyers il

man who loves human nature, a
man who is willing TO lend a helping
hand when mercy will do good ano
as the crowds passed from the Air.
dome that night almost every voter
was declaring his allegiance TO Will

A Homo Institution For Home Men.

A Home Institution For Home Men.
1t has been said that the neatest
home on Caddo street is the one built
by a share holder in the Peoples
Building and Loan Association, with
money secured from that institution.
Be that as it may, this home is evil
dence of two things, that this associa-
tion is a help to the one who would
help himself and that it only loans
money on the best security.
The lot upon which the house in
question was built was owned in fee
simple by the borrower and the
monthly payments which he is max
ing are rendering the security more
and more gilt edged every day.
For safe investment every day,
one where your money is secured by
steadily advancing real estate values
it would be hard to find better Op-
portunity than is offered by this COM
pany.
The president of the association, as
we'll as the secretary is a man who
is known to every one in Ardmore as
straightforward and an upright bus
mess man. The people of this city
recognized his integrity and ability
as business man when they elected
lim their mayor, and in the business
world he is recognized as a success.
This can also be said OF the secre-
tary, W. A. Edwards, who will gladly
give any full information upon the
plans and ideas OF the association.
