cial White Swan vinegar man with
this most progressive grocery firm

for the White swan line of goods
and are talking especially the merits
OF White swan teas and coffees and
pork and beans. Did You see in yes
terday's Ardmoreite what Miss Walk

Would Have EIGHT Hour Law Enforce ed


County Commissioner w. NJ. Kirk.
patrick is very outspoken in advo-
eating strict enforcement of the
eight hour law in this section. Mr.
KirkpatrlcN states that he has gor .
int the natter most eXhaustively
an finds that the law is very plain
in its provisions, stating positively
that no one shall be worked on pub.
lie work, exceeding eight hours per
day. He says that railroads are
working their extra men ten hours a
day and that some contractors are
also working their men the same
number of hours and are trying TO
evade the eight hour clause by pay
ing so much per hour, thus making
the employee lose a part of his daily
wage if he works less than ten hours
per day.

Ltes," Mr.. Kirkpatrick said, "and l.,

From Sayre Standard.

Since the formal announcement OF
Senator r. f. Echols of Elk City for
congressman at large has been made
public it is a matter of local pride
that the people of Bechham county
note the unanimity with which the
state press speak in complimentary
terms of Senator Echols congression-
al aspirations. And the fact that
these expressions have come as "a
voluntary tribute to man who has
demonstrated time and again his
worth in the legislative halls OF tine
his candidacy the sincere EXPIRE ssion
OF the sentiment OF his numerous
friends throughout the state who viii
lose no opportunity to assist in his
nomination and election to congress.
The same characteristics which
have won for Senator Echols the good
Twill and friendship of those with
W NUN It ldDOi tu III tilt oNdtU oN liot''
will prove of inestimable value to him
and to his constituents in the legisla-
lhappy faculty of making friends
wherever he goes, and no one realizes
friends in promoting legislation and
the accomplishing of results. He is
a forceful and logical speaker, well
informed upon all questions of pub
lie interest, and thoroughly convers-
ant with the needs of people of Ok
lahoma and particularly of the wes-
tern part where he has resided dur
ing the past twelve years. In short
he is the man of all men whom the
democrats of Oklahoma can unite up
on as one of the three congressman
at large to be elected from this state
The Standard is sincere in its be-
lief that a national victory awaits
democracy in the election next No
y vember. The election of a demo-
cratic president. however, will avail
bat little without at the same time
the election OF a democratic congress,
both house and senate, in sympathy
with the principles Of our party and
ready and willing to put into exc
cution the legislative policy necessary
to bring about those reforms for
which the democratic party stands. IL
is therefore important that in the
selection of our candidates for con-
.~.es we select men who are in SYM
pathy with democracy's motto, let
the people rule" and men who enjoy /
the confidence of the people to that |
extent that we may reasonably expect |
them to poll the full democratic vote
Of the state.
Senator EChols' extensive acquain- |
-ance of the state, his excellent stand
ng among the people, and his known |
loyalty to democratic principles all |
combine to make him the logical can
iidate for this position OF honor and
rust. That he will win in the pri-
nary and in the general election to
ollow is foregone conclusion

Trouble With Labor Unions Settled

The MANAGEMENT of the stone quar-

Bromide people fulfill their agree
ment to get the required amount OF
