Yention win be an object lesson 10
Oklahoma conventions in the future,
in fact the Oklahoma delegates who
are here now broke, tired. but never.
theless happy will be the first to join
in some movement that viii have as
its object the doing away with ma
tional party conventions. We are all
unit on one thing and that is that a
presidential preference primary is GER
tainly better than the present system.
Il was not at Baltimore but at the
state convention held in Oklahoma
City that the Oklahoma delegates got
in bad. and when we arrived at Balti-
more the most astute parlimentarian
and political manager could not en-
tangle us. We discovered that We
came here practically as two states
one with 10 votes for Wilson aud the
other with 10 votes for Clark Unless
a majority Of the 10 Clark votes agreed
to switch to Wilson or visa versa it
was impossible TO cast the solid vote
of the state for either candidate Then
when the Bryan-Clark controversy be
came heated the Oklahoma boys be
came more obdurate than ever and We
probably would be in Baltimore for
weeks unless Roger sullivan had
broken the deadlock
It was like sending two boys after
prize and advising one Of them that
when he came to a certain stream he
should cross in boat, and telling the
other he must cross on horseback
When the boys arrived at the stream
they found neither boat or horse but
a nice new bridge had been built
They had been instructed what to do
however aud refused to use the bridge
until three bigger boys came along
and lugged them across.
w. H. Murray and /. J. Giddings
found their voices once at the conyen-
ton and they are now sorry they
spoke, at least Glddings is. Woodrow
Wilson had two s4ong Oklahoma men
in his working van in Senator Gore
and Judge owen of Muskogee 1t was
a great convention and the big regret
that we have is we were not all in the
same family at the start.

Chicago, July 5.-America celebrated
its sanest Fourth yesterday The adj
option since last year by many addi-
tional cities, villages and hamlets Of
regulations forbidding the sale or use
OF fireworks resulted in further saw
ing of life and a lessening of the num-
Der Of MANNED.
In cities and villages in which the
sale of fireworks was forbidden, the
number OF casualties was greatly re-
duced.
In places where the use Of fireworks
was forbidden and the regulation en-
forced by the police there We're no
casualties.
The success of the sane Fourth idea
as a life saver in cities which adopted
it last year and the year before re
suited in the spread of the idea to
scores Of smaller towns this year. The
reports Of satisfaction found in the
sane method indicate there will be
still wider extension before the next
Fourth of regulations forbidding the
use Of fireworks.
The realization of municipal author
tiles that absolute prohibition of the
use of fireworks is the only way to as
sure a Fourth without casualties, is
apparent in the nature Of the ordi-
nances now being adopted as compared
with those of previous years, which
forbade only the use of certain of the
more dangerous kinds of fireworks.
With few exceptions, the large cities
We're free from accidents today The
casualties that occurred We're mostly
in the country districts.

SERVICE POINTERS
FOR HOTEL PEOPLE

A well-known Buffalo, n Y, hotel,
as the result Of an unpleasant episode
of well-known guest with a clerk
who didn't happen to know him, and
kick to the proprietor that made it.
self felt all down the line to the low
liest employe, has issued a booklet
chiefly for the edifieation of its EN-.
ployes, but doing no harm to the
prestige of the house if read by a
guest A few quotations show the
spirit it tries to inculcate:
A hotel has just one thing to sell.
And that one thing is service.
The hotel that sells poor service is
poor hotel
The hotel that sells good service is
good hotel.
1t is the object of the Hotel s.
to sell its guests the very best service
in the world.
The service of hotel is not a thing
supplied by any single individual It
is not special attention to any one
guest.
Hotel service-thaJ is, Hotel s.
service-means the limit of courteous,
efficient attention from each particu-
lar employe to each particular guest.
A doorman can swing the door in
manner TO assure the new guest that
be is in his hotel, where people are
prompt to serve him.
He can sling the door in way that
sticks in the guests crop" and makes
him expect to find at the desk
gcratehy, sputtery pen, sticking in
potato
When the room clerk says. Front
show Mr.. Robinson to room 1852" in
stead of SHOW the gentleman" etc,
the guest Immediately gets warm
feeling of being welcome.
An operator who is quick to answer
telephone calls and does not keep a
guest holding cold receiver to his
ear and listening intently to nothing.
can swell the appreciation Of s.
service, and swell the s. appre.
citation of her.
It is these little things that send
guest away to say, promptly q

Every item Of extra courtesy con-

and every pleased guest contributes

an eight days session in which politi.

and when after &c ballots the man

nominee the warriors of the various

from the front evidently show that Ok

these dispatches were evidently true,
