TO WORK FOR
ANOTHER HOTEL
SECRETARY OF THE COMMERCIAL
CLUB AUTHORIZED TO AOVER-
TlSE, STATING WANTS.

At the meeting of the Commercial
Club last night z. A. Simpson, one
of the directors and one Of the COM
mittee appointed some time ago to
investigate the hotel proposition here,
stated that the committee desired TO
be relieved of the responsibility or
making that report as it was too well
known that Ardmore was in need OF
another hotel to make an invest!ga-
ton necessary and made a motion
that the secretary be instructed by
the club to act with the president
in inserting proper advertisements
in the various hotel journals set
ting forth the advantages of Arimore
as a city and asking capital to in
vest ia a modern hotel in this city.
The president and secretary were in
structed to use their own discre-
ton in the matter of advertising and
not to limit themselves, but to get
someone interested in a modern no .
tel in Ardmore and do everything i'll
their power to that end. Mr.. Simp-
son stated that he did not desire to
hurt any of his fellow townsmen, but
the time had come when sentiment
could no longer stand in the way of
judgment, that travelling people were
complaining daily and it was time
something was done in the matter.
The president and secretary will pre-
pare the necessary advertisements at
once and they will be inserted in all
the prominent hotel journals through
out the east.

cold, change handkerchefs often;
wash your hands frequently, and do
not cough withoo'. turning your heal

keep your body in good health; your
feet warm and dry, sleep in well

places where the ventilation is poor" !"

aucially out of an abyss that for a
time threatened its existence.

# this city who are not enrolled as
members Of the club, but whom Pres

last night he advised every member
present at the meeting to constitute
a committee of one to secure one
more new member and if everyone
would do that, the hundred extra
members needed would soon be Sc
cured
The commercial club is taking a
more active part in matters pertaining
to the welfare of the citizens of the
city and county than ever before, and
President Foster is especially strong
for getting the farmers Of the county
Interested, several are already mem
bers. and there is room for every good
farmer in Carter county at the club,
and it is the desire of the president,
and his earnest invitation that they
join and take part in the meetings.

was going to call every member he
could reach over the phone today and
urge them to get one new name for
the club, and believes that before Sat

NAVY MAY BID ON
0SACE OIL LANDS
SECRETARY DANIELS is IN FAV-
OR OF DRILLING FOR OIL IN
MID-CONTINENT FIELD.

Washington, Dec. 9.-"Prompt steps
should be taken to lease oil lands in
the Continent fields said Sec
retary of the Navy Josephus Daniels

ton, that the navy department has
been making a quiet investigation of
conditions in Oklahoma, and partic-
ularly in the oil lands of the Usage In
dian tribe.
Secretary Daniels declared that the
rapidly increasing price Of fuel oil
rendered it imperative for the gov
ernment to secure its own supply and
be relieved of the necessity of buying
at the oil companies figures.
The secretary recommended that
the United States take the initiative
in the plan proposed by Winston
Churchill, lord Of the British admiral
ty. and call a conference of world
powers to consider lessening the cost
of armies and nayies.

Allen Arouses Smiles.

Crinkling smiles break 1roun ! iGe
mouths of political folks over the quo
tation hung upon Henry Allen by the
newspapers. Henry, say the dis
PATCHES announced that if the repu1-
lican party will correct the southern
representation, retire the present ma
tional committee and indorse all pro-
gressiye principles, he will go back
to the old party.
"If they do this" declared Henry,
Il will go back and take charge Of
the party"
Some folks are saying that Allen
was certainly misquoted; that certain
ly he, of all men, would not want 10
come back as the conquering hero,
with everybody at every hand kow-
towing and scraping to him right and
left.
There were some thirty or forty
men at the meeting, with their wives.

KANSAN READY To
DESERT M0OSERS
AND is "WlLLlNG TO HEAD" G. o.
p. IF PRoGREsslVEs COME IN.
TO THE FOLD.

opeka, Kan. Dec. 9.-The democrats
are laughing up their sleeves over
the antics of the Stubbs-Allen Bull
Moose meeting at Lawrence the other
night. They don't give a rap over the
fact that Stubbs, Allen, ct al, whalod
the democratic administration over
the head. and they won't, just as long
as the former governor and the Wichi-
ia editor and their cohorts keep on
talking a third ticket. Hodges hench-
men everywhere are chuckling to
themselves and passing the don't
care" talk down the line so far as
democratic attacks are concerned, and
are hanging up the joy sign over the
indirect help which they will get next
year from a Bull Moose state ticket.
If there is anything that the demo-
Gratis want more than anything else
it is a divided republican camp.
Moosers Called in Camp.
Easily is that demonstrated by the
recent statewide Bull Moose uprising
held in Topeka, for it is related that
Sam Seaton executive clerk to Gov
ernor Hodges, met some of his Bull
Moose fellow citizens from Olathe
and urged them to stand upright in
their faith.
Incidentally it might be mentioned
that the democratic administration
howls loud and long when republicans
fire a broadside of criticism into 1t.
But they see a big silver lining be-
hind every Bull Moose party javelin
thrust at them for they figure that
half of every progressive vote cast
next year in Kansas will fall into the
democratic column, and they cOnsid-
er the Bull Moose a very worthy ad-
junct in that respect to the demo
cratic party.
A line on the manner in which
Stubbs will "pirOot" politically in
Kansas can be gathered from his Law
renee speech. He lambasted every
body and everything he doesn't and
won't like, and the 1914 campaign will
see him in this usual role, apparent |
