UNDEMocRATIc AND UHWisE.

Within the past few days-in fact
since the Inauguration OF President
Wilson has guaranteed democratic
postmaster to the people Of Ardmore
some o; the citizens of this town,
number OF republicans along with
some few democrats, are beginning
to urge the holding Of primary,
the object of which will be to de-
tormine who shall be Ardmore's post .
master.
Such measure would be unwlse
for many obvious reasons This mat
ter was thoroughly threshed out az
the Oklahoma state convention last
summer at the time the platform Of
the democratic party of the state
was built up. 1t will be remembered
that at that time an effort was made
to incorporate plank in the party
platform which would provide Fcr
the selection Of all postmasters Of
all the large or presidential post
offices In the state to be made by
"the peoples choice" at primary cleo
tions." 1t will also be well remem-
Dered that the majority of the dele
gates, representing the wishes of the
democratic constituency. held that
such plank would be, not only un-
democratic, but unrepublican, un-
American, unjust and unwise.
One OF the principal arguments
used against this primary" system
Of the selection of pOstmasters at
that time, and an argument which
holds good today was that we have
no law which says who shall be
and shall not be entitled to a vote.
There is no law which says who shall
be considered patrons of any office
to which the postmaster shall be
chosen. Take in the instance of Ard
more. We can not say that only the
people of Ardmore shall vote as pat
rons Of the Office, for there is n
large country patronage to this office.

showed daddy a picture, of a black bird, about the size of a crow.
That looks to me like a raven" said daddy. Ravens ae not

Ravens are very wise birds, and they cal be taught to speak even better
than parrots If one will take the trouble. Some wise men say that ravens
have more brains than any other birds, but I do not know IL this is so, be-.
cause I have never met any ravens"
why don't you get a aven for US for a pet daddyF asked Jack, who
always wants to have anything he hears about. #@.M
Daddy laughed. Perhaps If you had a raven for a pet you would soon
want to get rid of him" he said, because ravens are very mischevous, and
they are great thieves. They will steal anything that is let. lying about the
house, and they are especially fond Of bright shining articles. I'm afraid your
toys and Evelyn's wouldn't be very safe with a raven around ready to steal
and hide anything he could pick up in his long, strong bill.
Il think. children, you have heard of Charles Dickens, the famous English
writer o. stories. He vas q man with a warn heart, who loved all living
things. He had two ravens for pets, and in nj of his books he wrote about
a raven which belonged to a poor, weakminded young man. When you are
older you may read about it for yourselves in Dickens interesting story,

But I want to tell you about Dickens ravens. He had two of them. The
first raj a young bird and was very intelligent Dickens tells how his raven
used to sleep in a stable, generally o. the back of a horse. In the stable was
afraid, in fact, that he would let the raven steal his dinner from right in front
Of his face. But one sad day this wise raven ate some paint which some work
men had left behind them in the stable, and that was the end Of the raven.
"The other bird that belonged to Dickens was older and could talk we'll
Like the first bird, he lived in the stable, and after he had learned the stable
mans talk he would perch O the window all day and tell the horse to whoaP
n Get upr even when there were no horses in sight Mr.. Dickens says this

the bird cared for the cook only because he knew she could give him good
