ceration at the will of Home Secre-
tary McKenna, Mrs. Bmmeline Pank-

said to be in very grave condition.
from exhaustion, by physicians who
examined her thoroughly as soon as
she reached the private hospital to
which she was removed today. The
doctors found Mrs Pankhurst to be
weakened by her long total absti-
nence from everything but water.
Her years made her condition more
serious.
Mrs. Pankhurst served but one
week and two days of the three-year
sentence imposed upon her for the
Walton Heath explosion and it is the
intention of the home Office that she
return to prison as soon as her
health is restored.
Mrs. Pankhurst's release from
prison does not mean that she is a
free woman. She still is technically
prisoner and is at liberty under
Home Secretary Reginald McKenna's
latest ticket-o' leave plan. She must
serve three actual years in prison,
even If the process consumes ten
years, unless in the meantime she be
lpardoned, her sentence commuted, or
she dies.
AS soon as Mrs Pankhurst recov-
ers her health the home secretary
can order her back to prison with
out any court process, and keep her
there until he sees fit to give her an
other chance to recuperate at lib
lerty.
If Mrs. Pankhurst is restored tc
health and remains in England and Is
not pardoned. she will go back tC
Holloway Jail in a short time. If sh,
hunger strikes again, she will agar
be let out on ticket-of-leave. Moth

cess will be repeated until Mrs. Pank

(Staff Correspondent OF the United
Press)
WASHINGTON, April 12.-Presi-
dent Wilson stands pat on free wool
and ultimate free sugar. The crisis
in the tariff fight was reached today
in both the house and senate COM
mittees. It found Wilson fighting aud
ready to carry his fight to the peo-
pie
The United Press is able today 10
present in part President Wilson's
tariff views as he sketched them dur
ing the campaign as he has ex-
pounded them to congressional lead
ers and as he expects TO urge them
in a direct appeal to the people if
he believes he Is forced TO that course
by opposition at the capitol
What the people put on their backs
and in their stomachs must be made
cheap. no matter who suffers?" was
the Presidents final word to the Sem
ate finance committee. He insisted
that statement designed to create
! the idea throughout the country by
]
passage Of the tariff bill would be
disastrous TO the business of the coup-
try. was absolutely false. He re-
ferred his callers TO his views on this
subject frequently uttered, when he
said
Il am always afraid that business
men who are uneasy have something
TO be uneasy about The American
people are taking notice in q way
in which they never took notice be-
fore and gentlemen who talk one way
and vote another are going to be re-
tired 10 a very quiet and private re-
| tirement"
That is the Presidents position. He
sees no reason TO compromise He be-
lieyes that the people VIII stand by
him and that, II they will. he can
compel the tariff to be adjusted so
that the filling Of the market baskets
OF the nation will be far less costly
than at present In this connection,
the President has directed attention
/ TO the position that he took when IL
was charged that the low tariff Woulu
hit the farmer hardest. The presi-
dent said.
! IHUeI never fTOIffIP0s
THE American farmer has never
been protected for the very good
reason that he never needed TO be
protected. His grains are sold at
| prices established by the prices which
his product demanded in foreign
markets. That ia an economic fact.
But everything that is used on the
farm, everything that is worn and a
good deal of what the farmers eat but
do not themselves produce. including
meats, bears heavy duty which brings
about the interesting result that the
farmer is paying for a great deal OF
the wealth OF the United States and
is getting nothing so far as the tariff
is concerned.
Nothing is more unfortunate. moth
ing is more unwarranted than 70
think of politics as a contest of
classes. II is notorious that many
members OF the senate finance COM
mittee did not know the Significance
of the tariff schedules which were re-
ported by that committee In the Payne
Aldrich bill. Take that very interest
ing matter, that will-o'-the-wisp
known as The Cost of Production
as a basis for tariff legislation. II

PYTHIAN ANNIVERSARY.
Myrtle Lodge With All Lodges II
This District to Celebrate.

Keeper of r. & S. Salisbury of
Myrtle Lodge, No. 1O7, Tof this city,
is mailing out circular letters to all
Pythian lodges in this district call
ing their attention to the anniver-
sary celebration and district conven-
ton which will be held in Ardmore

of acceptance which. Mr.. Salisbury
has received up to the present date
it is thought that large delegation
of representative Knights, will be here
in attendance.
The letter which is being mailed
to the different lodges follows:
"Ardmore, Okla, Jan. 25, 1913.

LON FRAME MAKES GOOD
SHOWING.

While Lon Frame OF the state
Board of Affairs seems to be one OF
the present bones of contention up
at Oklahoma City and while 1t Las
been practically conceded that the
state supreme court will have to be
called upon to take the final step III
settling the matter as to whether or
not he has been legally confirmed by
the senate, 1t might not be out OF Or
der to make a brief statement Of one
or two matters which have beeh III
eartted during the fight in which he
is the central figure.
One Of the first things which has
been shown, and which goes far to
establish that he has made record
for himself since in office, as a care
full and painstaking business man, Is
the fact that out of seven thousand
affairs which have been consummat-
ed through lis office only sx have
been objected to, wherein the object
ions were found to be valid. OF this
number one is acknowledged to have
heen acted upon in the absence of Mr..
Frame from the office. Thus leaving
the insignificant number of five only
out of over seven thousand separate
transactions wherein objections were
found to be valid The man who can
make such a show ng as this certainly
merits the respect which all people
should show man of real business
acumen.
1t might also be well to say that ac-
cording to the general understanding
in legislative circles, the greater part
of the complaints which have been
made against Lon Frame and the
State board of affairs, have eminated
from disgruntled former employees
who have been discharged. for good
and sufficient reasons from the ser
vice of that department and who are
now endeavoring the get even by
getting somebody's scalp"
The Ardmoreite is not taking ur
cudgels for Lon Frame, or any other
man in the matter of their confrma
tions by the senate or the investiga
tions by either the house or the sen
ate. but is simply publishing this bare
statement of facts to show why Lor
Frame should not be censured fol
refusing to resign mnder fire.
