AUGUSTUS e. lVEY.

If there is a man in Oklahoma
more deserving to be supported for
congressman at large, to which po-
sition he aspires, by the press and
democrats all over the state, than
A. h. Gus" lvey printer, journalist
and farmer, We do not know him,
nor have We heard of him. Always
loyal to the press and the common
people-ior thirty odd years battling
for democracy and the rights OF the
farmers and laborers, Gus lvey de-
serves their support and he will get
it if there is a grain of gratitude in
their hearts. lvey's ability is trans
cendant, his courage to do things is
unquestioned and he would make a
congressman Oklahoma will be proud
OF. We make a motion that he be
nominated by the democrats Of Ok
lahoma with unanimous vote on
August g. Had he not virtually re-
tired from the race for state auditor,
on account of serious injuries reeeiv-
ed by him in a railroad wreck
which almost cost him his life, he
would have been the states first
auditor-and it may have been bet
ter for the state had he filled that
position Vote for him and you
will render a great service to your
party and state, for you owe him
your support for his long, loyal and
faithful service to the cause of the
common people and the democratic
party in Indian Territory and Ok
lahoma. Gus Ivey has never held an
office since statehood and now the
democratic party can afford to re-
ward him, in a measure, for his
constancy and devotion to its cause
for his manhood and statesman

Shall Rule" instead of the big man

The greater part of the foundation
for the high school building has been
completed. With the assurance from
the managers Of the Bromide quarries
from which the stone for the super
structure is being taken, that there
will be no delay in getting this stone
here, it is practically settled that the
building will be finished within the
time Limit agreed upon between the
school board and the contractor.

Judge Hefner, who was one of the
party of three at Bromide Tuesday
states that he seriously objects to the
other two gentlemen of the party
mentioning the name of the one who
wrought wreck and ruin at the hotel

three meals a day.

Chicago, May l3.-For Gods sake,
Madam, please let me use this wire to
summon help; there is little girl here
with her leg torn off. +"
Somewhere in Chicago there is a
woman who was using aparty telephone
wire for idle gossip and refused this
frantic plea, for her answer was this:
"This line is busy. kindly keep out and
attend to your own business"
Nora Crowley 9 years old, and Julia
Crowley, 10, were crushed by an auto
truck as they were roller skating today.
Neighbors rushed to help them and
found Nora's left leg had been torn off,
while Julia's right arm was broken, her
body, head and shoulders badly cut.
One of the neighbors rushed to the
nearest telephone with the result noted
above, and was forced to race four
blocks TO find physician. While the
woman held the telephone with silly
chatter, the children lay suffering on
the pavement.

Urey Woodson For
National Committeeman.

At most critical time in the DEM
ocratic party last year before the Con-
vention met to formulate a platform
the Owensboro Messenger came out
boldly for putting the County Unit in
the platform. Mr.. Urey Woodson, the
brilliant editor Of that paper, never
made better or stronger fight for
anything in his life than he did on this
proposition. He saved the day and we
are fully satisfied that but for his eff
forts the County Unit plank would
never have been adopted. The forces
for and against were evenly balanced
and Woodson turned the scale in favor
of the "dry" people. Had this plank in
the platform been omitted Judge
O'Rear instead of James B. McCreary
would have been elected Governor and
therefore the success of the Democrat
ic party in Kentucky last fall is as
much due to Urey Woodson, aided and
helped by other newspapers outside of
Louisville, as to any other cause. Mr..
Woodson parted company in that cam
paign with many of his former polit-
ical associates. He fought good fight
and kept the faith. Whether he favor
ed this plank in the platform from ex-
pediency or principle does not matter
so long as he led the fight which in
the end insured Democratic victory.
We have been beside him in many a
