ROAD WORKING PLAN.
An Admirable Letter From a
Levil-Headed Citizen.

1t Is not unusual to hear some
one speak OF the awful bad condi-
tion Of the public roads of Jones
county.
The writer, few DAYS past, heard
a man say any one could tell when he
had crossed the country into another
county by the better condition in
which the public roads OF adjoining
counties we're kept. This man stated
that six or eight years past it was the
opposite.
Now, a great many would lay blame
on our Board Of Supervisors, as il IS
fashionable to censure these officers
for all that is bad and never praise
them for anything that is good and
commendable. You hear the anti
cattle-dippers saying very bad things
about them, but those who favor dip
ping do not praise them at all.
The writer thinks majority of the
the citizens are to blame There is
not enough progressiyeness about the
average citizen. There is not enough
public spirit about those who pretend
to work the public roads. We could
not have more inefficient system of
working our highways than is in prac-
tice here.
We have entirely too many public |
roads for the number of people living |
along them, making their upkeep too |
great for the present support given
this part OF the county's property
You can take one-half dozen negro |
boys, with a good boss, and do more
work in five days than twelve average
road hands will do in ten DAYS, and |
at the same time make the work more |
effective. Every one wno has been q
road hand knows how the time is was
dollars, going in swim
ming, wrestling, going to spring or
" watermelon patch, or telling big, mas
ty yarns.
do not think any one under q |
years of aye should have to work the |
roads nor pay d road tax except when |
said minor owned taxable property. | |
think every able-bodied man should |
be assessed a reasonable road tax,
and make him pay it in cash money |
and not charge the county So for |
work which could have been done for |
that amo unit. Add one
or two mills levy on all assessed pro-
perty, and from these two sources we |
would raise money enough to put eve
rY road in the county ir-sss.s=----ss'fsssss1s
think if the county issues
bonds for road Improvement, they |
should mature within five years, and |
that the money derived from the sale
Of these bonds be used in purchasing
mules and road machinery.
write this simply to give my view
| have worked pretended ~ work the !
roads ten days FER year for several
ears, and don't think our present
system oT woodworking a good on.

(By II, n. Elkins.}

Washington, d. c.. April 2l.-At q
meeting Of the Oklahoma house con
gressional delegation Congressman
Charley Carter of the fourth dis
trict was elected chairman and
Claude Weaver secretary. The dele
cation made the following recon
mendations for committee assign
ments:
Claude Weaver for assignment on
interstate and foreign commerce,

w. H. Murray for assignment on
banking and currency, merchant ma
rino and fisheries and public build
ings and grounds.
James Davenport for assignment
on the judiciary, territories and H.
sular affairs.
Scott Ferris for chairman of public
lands ard member on Indian affairs.
Charley Carter for assignment as

Hon. Claude Weaver was elected
to the vacancy on the national con-

This week the democratic house
caucus has under consideration the
tariff behind closed doors with the
prospect of about ten days more
fighting before the Underwood bill
comes out with the seal of the par
ty approval upon it. The agricultu
raj duties have already passed the
gauntlet, regardless of the fight put
up by the farming interests against
the tariff makers upon their deter
mined effort to "lower the cost of
living" program.
Republican members Ct the house
ways and means committee who had
no part in preparing the Underwood
bill are now working on substitute
cotton and wool schedules which
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1913-04-21

they will offer as soon as the tariff
is taken up in the house. IL is stat
ed IL will be similar to the republi-
can substitute offered In the Ian,
congress which proposed general
reduction in the tariff, but main
tanned protection for the mdnufaC-
turers and wool growers. The re-
publicans are 10 hold another caucus
the latter part OF this week for fur
ther discussion OF the bill.
Other legislative matters have been
forcing themselves to the front dur
ing the last few days and several
attempts will be made to get Presi-
dent Wilson's approval of several
subjects on which immediate action
is desired. Preparations of curren-
cy reform is to move slowly, because
of the agreement between the presi e
dent and Senator owen of the sem
ate finance committee, Representa-
tive Glass and other congressional
directors of financial legislation that
il will not interfere with the tariff
revision. A series Of hearings prob
ably will open up soon under the
direction OF the senate banking and
currency reform committee.

Are Your Clothes Laundried or Mere
Iv washed

There are many ways of washing
some take the garments to the creek
and tie them in the current and let
the little brook do the work all alone,
others dump the whole mess in a
harrell and pound them to pieces witn
a log while yet others use the old
fashioned back breaking tub and
washboard in order to secure clean
lipesS, but there is but one real way
to secure properly laundered linen
and that is at a properly equipped
laundry Ardmore is fortunate in hav-
ing such an institution within her
borders The Excelsior steam laun-
dry began operations a few years ago
with ;he ayowed intentions of max
ing it the best laundry in southern
Oklahoma With that object in view
the management have kept abreast
of the times and whenever a new
machine appeared on the market that
was necessary to do better work,
theirs was among the first orders
placed for that particular machine
with the result that today their plant
is without a rival in southern Okla

their drivers and let him take you-

TrUubles-S, =. =.

The word medicine Is one Of the
most abused in our language. There
are certain medicinal properties just
as necessary to health as the food we
eat. Take. for example the we'll
known tonic medicine S. S $. This
famous blood purifier contains medic
1nal components just as vital and
essential to healthy blood as the ele-
ments OF wheat, roast beef, the fats
and the sugars that make up our daily
ration.
As matter of fact, there Is one
ingredient in S. s. S. which serves the
active purpose OF stimulating each
cellular part Of the body to the healthy
and judicious selection of Its own
essential nutriment That is why 1t
regenerates the blood supply; why IL
has such a tremendous influence in
overcoming eczema, rash, pimples, and
all skin aiilictions.
And in regenerating the tissues
S. S. S. has rapid and positive anti
dotal effect upon all those irritating
influences that cause rheumatism, sore
throat, weak eyes, falling hair, loss Of
weight thin, pale cheeks, and that
weariness of muscle and nerve that is
generally experienced as spring fever
