A Surprise Party.

The mid-week service at the Pres
byterian church last night terminated
in very pleasant surprise party.
About thirty-five members were pres
ent and showed they were glad to be
there by the gifts brought The pas
tor was overwhelmed 10 the extent
that he delivered his speech only with
difficulty, and could make no response
to the words of presentation and ex-
planation. After a pleasant time of
conversation we went in various ways
to our homes 1t was good to see the
goodfellowship that exists among the
people of the church. There is a spirit
of cooperation that will mean effec-
tive service for the Master May this
grow and take first place in the hearts
of every member of the church. There
is duty for each member to perform
and no one else can do it. Hope you
will all come again soon.

HASKELL LAUGHS
At MOOSE IDEA
Declares His Intention to Remain in
the Democratic Ranks-"l Am
a Democrat"

Oklahoma City, Sept 19.-" am
democrat; always intend to be a dem
ocrat and any statement to the effect
that | have entertained a proposal to
affiliate with any other parry is
falsehood, or words to that effect
came over the telephone from Musko.
gee last night, in answer to the "nys
terious rumors" emanating from bull
moose headquarters here, which mad it
that Former Governor Haskell was
about to switch over to the new party.
The above is Mr.. Haskell's answer
to the bull moose stuff.
Like mud turtle which seldom
shows its head and remains below the
water this "rumor" has been going the
rounds for several days. II was thrown
out from bull moose headquarters for
the same purpose that many other
things are thrown out from those same
headquarters. The "rumor" never had
Its effect for the simple reason that
most good democrats knew its pur-
pose.
Even Monday night, there were hints
that something momentous was going
to be pulled off the next day. Men
who had heard of the rumor piloted
other men into back alleys and there
told what the suspicious were. No
one dared say anything aloud for fear
someone else might hear but of course
none of the stories that We're being
banded about, could be true. Tues
day the same rumors were in the air.
Some people bit but finally a friend
of Mr. Haskell's called him up over
the telephone. The governor laughed
until he was told that some people
were taking the talk seriously. Then
he said, Il am a democrat
That Of itself was enough to satisfy
his inquisitor But the governor went
on TO say further that anyone who
even hihted that he was planning TO
leave the psriy spoke not the truth.
Those who know the methods can
lployed in bull moose headquarters
paid no attondun to the rumors. They
know that progeiyting is going on
every day; Cat attempts are being
made to hire democrats to enlist in
the cause OF the bull moose party:
that one man who has more or less OF
statewide reputation is now a bill
moose at so nlen per day, tnis oecu-
patton being more lucrative than be-
ing a democrat: and that efforts are
being made to secure space in demo
cratic papers at space rates
And as o tbs so-called progressive
movement n Oklahoma, people Me
asking themselves these days, Where
do they get the money!" And no an
swer comes in view Of the fact that no
popular appeal for funds has evec been
sent out

"The Stumbling Block"

The Stumbling Block" which is
the title of the production in which
Oscar Graham and his company are ap-
pearing this season has been widely
criticised as one of the most whole
some, most uplifting and inspiring
plays of modern times. When Mr.
Graham presented his beautiful col
lege-Indian drama. "A Prince of His
Race" and later his western classic,
Circle Ranch, he firmly establish.
ed himself as favorite among the
.atre patrons. Both these plays were
warmly received because they were
clean, moral, high class and excel.
lently staged In The Stumbling
Block there is presented an exquisite
theme coupled with an inspiring moral
In the story's fabric is interviewer a
thread of pure, delightful comedy AS
Mr.. Graham's company is made up of
artists who have been associated with
him for four straight seasons, it is safe
to say that the acting will be com
mendably artistic.
The Stumbling Block" will be at
the Grand Treatre, Sunday, Septem-

WOMEN BATTLE
FOR SUPREMACY
WiIlette kershaw Opens Western Cam.
Pagn While Mrs. J. Borden Har-
riman Fights in the East.
(By Richard R. Sinclair)

Following the announcement that
Jane Adams of Chicago would take
the stump in behalf of Col Roosevelt,
Miss Willette Kershaw the founder of
the professional Women's Wilson and
Marshall League, called meeting of
her fellow workers at the list Regi-
ment Armory in New York last Satur-
day afternoon at which plans were
formulated to counteract the argu-
ments of the Women Progressives in
the west headed by Jane Adams
1t was decided that the most effiec-
tive method of combating, the argu-
ments of the "MoOsettes" would be to
compare Woodrow Wilson's record of
twenty months in office with Roose-
velt's seven years.
Miss Kershaw will not touch the
tariff question as Mrs. Hartman, the
New York society leader is devoting
her activities exclusively to this issue,
making daily speeches in the east and
sending literature throughout the
country, Before leaving on her spe-
ciaf car for Chicago last evening Miss
Kershaw gave out the following let
ters:
The campaign conducted by the
professional Women's Wilson and Mar
shall League in the New England
states during the past three weeks has
been successful beyond our widest
dreams. | found that in the factories
employing child labor there existed a
total ignorance of the magnificent
child labor legislature enacted by Gov
ernor Wilson in New Jersey
In the west our efforts will be de-
voted principally to the child labor
question although we will tell of the
great benefits of the different factory
laws that have been enacted in New
Jersey during Wilson's administra-
ton, such as the laws relating to the
employment of women wage earners,
the compelling of adequate fire protec-
ton in factories and SCHOOLS and the
hours in which children should work
in the various industries.
I'VE will show the benefits of the
workingmen's compensation act which
provides definite sums for definite in
juries and for debts involving varied
relations; in other words we will pit
Wilson's record against Roosevelt's s
and let our audience judge for them
selves.
I'VE are having moving pictures
made showing by comparison the for
mer miserable conditions in the fac
tory homes in New Jersey and the
present conditions. Its up to the work
ingman to cast his vote for the man
who has done so much in his own
state to better conditions and I be-
lieve the way to reach this vote is
through the wife or mother or sister
upon whom the greatest burden fails" "
Miss Kershaw will conduct an active
campaign in Chicago for the next two
weeks and will assign speakers from!
the New York Herald quarters to the
western territory
