Most Logical Man.

This week we feel proud to ana
nounce the name OF X. f. Echols, OF
Elk City, as candidate for congress
man at large, subject to the Demo-
cratic primary. AS is well known,
since the last census, in addition to
the five district congressman, we are
to elect three additional members at
large, so that in addition to Scott
Ferris, We in this west end of the
state have an opportunity to present
candidate for the position of con-
gressman at large.
Out of the many candidates offer
ing, each voter may vote for three
men and the three receiving the high
number of votes will be the nom
inees. This should easily help us to
place Bob in the list of these chosen
men Bob has been one of us for a
long time, ever since Elk City started.
He has served as state senator for
two terms and has always been in
the front line of things doing, having
Justly earned the distinction of being
among the leaders of the party.
Bob has always stood for the west
side, and its people, and unless We
misunderstood the signs of the times,
the people are going to stand for
Bob.
No one can question his democracy,
coming as he does from the Lone Star
State, always fighting the battles OF
democracy, we'll educated, of com
manding appearance and we'll posted
in the parliamentary practices. He is
thoroughly competent TO represent his
state in the halls of congress. Every
one in this end of the state personally
knows him and that he will have the
hearty support of all goes without
SAYING Among the many candidates
nearly all are from the central por-
tion or ;he east end We think that
the west end is entitled to cne. and
we feel sure that X. F. Echols is
the man for the place. - Harmon

GUM SHOE SLEUTHS
GETTING BUSY NOW
FEDERAL COURT DECISION HAS
AROUSED THEM TO SENSE OF
DUTY AND DOLLARS.

Guthrie, Okla, June 13.-Following
the decision by the United States su-
preme court this week, holding that
old Indian Territory must be kept dry
by the federal government, Charles f.
Carpenter of Guthrie left last night
for Muskogee to resume his duties as
a federal sleuth in the work of keep
ing the Indians and liquor separate
Carpenter has been in the service
about two months and is considered
one Of "PussyfoOt" Larson's best men.
1t is the intention of Larson, the
head of the force, and his chief as
sistant, Rev. c. C. Brannon, the
fighting parson,' to keep busy all
the time now on the east side. enforc-
ing the prohibition law as held down
by the federal government in Indian
country. Jim Burns, another high as
sistant, has charge in the Usage ma
ton, and as a result OF his work two
or three dozen cases are now bein;
investigated b. the federal grand jury
in session at Enid.
1t is understood that the force on
the east side is to be increased and
also that each county is to have an
assistant who will look after liquor
matters for the federal government.
1t is said that many of the liquor
cases, thus far cleaned on that side
of the state. have been wiped off the
state court dockets by political office
holders in the various counties, and
that hundreds of prosecutions will
now follow the action of the federal
government in taking charge.
