Ardmore Raises Money.

President Johnson, Of the Texas
Oklahoma league, states that he has
received notification from the Ard
more people that their subscription
for the baseball team has been raised
and that Ardmore will be ready to
play ball when the curtain rises on
the 1913 season. This will certainly
be pleasing news to the fans here,
for we like Ardmore, and we like to
wallop her team, but more than that,
we want Ardmore to remain in the
league because she is an Oklahoma
town, and Oklahoma towns can not
afford to fall down on any public en-
terprise.-Durant Democrat.
She Combed His Head
Nettie Sadler, negress who is said
to be a very decided brunette, was
arraigned before Judge Best of the
police court yesterday afternoon upon
charge of fighting. After hearing
all the evidence in the case the judge
ordered that the prisoner be- dis
charged from custody.
The facts in te case as devel-
oped by the evidence, showed that
the prosecuting witness, big, husky
negro man, had started to clean up
on the defendant with buggy whip.
Now, the defendant was evidently a
suffragette of the most militant type.
Also she seemed to be a moving spir.
it in the cleanup movement which
is causing great deal of activity
in the feminine circles of the city
just at present. At any rate when
the man in the case came to the
bat with the kafir saver he did not
, get an opportunity to land more than
one swipe on his woman. When the
buggy whip curled and tingled across
the rear sections of her anatomy She
seized a convenient brick and pro-
ceeded to comb her attackers hair
in the latest and most approved style.
81 shoa parted that niggah's hair,
Judge the woman stated as she
glanced in the direction of the swath-
ed and bandaged top-piece of the pros
ecuting witness and grinned broadly.
Prisoner discharged said the judge
as he struggled to keep a very de-
ciled smile from developing into a
full-grown grin on his own part.

matter to keep it going. | am ready
to do my part.
W. w. Clemens-Ardmore should
have such an organization. We need
members and need dues. The or
gani2ation must have money If it ac-
complishes anything. / do not be-
lieve that the secretary of the Com
mercaI Club can also be secretary
of the retailers. There is too much
work for any one man to do. The
former association did much good and
if the merchants will support an or
sanitation they will be pleased with
the results.
President Ringer-The Commercial
Club at this time is doing very
pretty work. 1t has cooperating with
it men in every section of the county.
Mr.. Meek says we have the only first
class agricultural exhibit in the coun-
ty and the efforts of our secretary
along agricultural lines is revolution
izing the farming business of the
county. ! desire very much to see
the retailers organizers. We owe our
help to this great work. The benefits
will justify the expense five times
over
G.. NJ. Henley favor such an or
ganization but so many stumbling
blocks have been mentioned that l
confess | have not worked out a
method which think would be sue
oessful.
A. B. Rawlins-I shall be glad to
cooperate with the merchants, but
in doing so | do not desire to help
the Commercial Club, which in my
opinion should first be helped by the
landlords of the town instead of by
the merchants.
w. G. Dit2ler-We found the other
organization useful and we allowed
selfishness to break it up. The col"
lecting feature of the organization
was very good. l favor an expert
enced secretary who knows how to
carry out the work.
]. A. Bodovitz-I was not member
of the other organization because
was in a business at that time that
did not entitle me to membership
with the retailers. l am now and
shall be glad to help in the organiza-
ton.
]. w. Krueger-I believe that l can
get sixty members for the retailers
in one.half days time and each mem
ber should be pledged to pay his
dues for at least six months or de-
cline to take him. I would rather
be organized with half dozen men
who will stick than with sew
eral dozen who pay one or two
months and drop their membership.
Membership can be made worth some
thing and in giving service we hold
the membership. The Friday bulle-
tin feature is a good one and needs
lust a little backbone to enable each
fellow to tell the truth no matter
who it hurts. If goods are bought
away from home it ought to be pub
lished in the bulletin The peddlers'
nuisance can be remedied by coop
Grafton The refund of fares is a
good trade booster which can be
given only when the merchants are
organized. l favor a secretary who
does not live in Ardmore and who
has the courage to tell the truth,
no matter who it hurts.

RETAILERS MEET
WILL ORGANIZE
COMMITTEE ON MEMBERSHIP
NAMED-WlLL GO AFTER EX-
TENSION OF TRADE.

That there are 23 bad check artists
who now have membership in the
Oklahoma legislature is the assertion
of Mr.. Meek, secretary of the State
Retailers Association, who is here to
organize the Ardmore merchants. Mr..
Meek based the percentage of BAD
check artists upon the checks which
he has in his office fer collection.
These checks were given i'll the home
towns of the representatives and
we're sent to the State Association for
collection while the legislature was
in session. Mr.. Meek said that looked
rather bad to hope for a bad check
law but the house passed the meas
ure by a good majority and it will
probably become a law in Oklahoma
and bad check artists will be con-
victed of a felony.
At the meeting held at the court
house on Thursday evening for the
purpose of organizing a Retailers
Association the merchants were not
very well represented, although Mr..
Meek said the interest manifested
was greater than in many other
towns. Each merchant seemed to
look at the failures of the old organ
iZation and the time was growing
late when upon motion of Jake Bodo-
vitz it was agreed to organize and a
committee composed of A. B. Rawlins,
j. w. Kruger and w. G. Ditzler
was appointed on membership.
Mr. Meek in addressing the body
said the retailers were working for
better legislation for their own in
terests. They object to the eXemp-
ton laws, they want bad check
law, they want better protection from
the insurance companies, they claim
that Oklahoma pays from one and a
half to five times as much money
for protection from fire as other
states pay, and he is of the opinion
that by organization those things
most desirable can be had.
The advantages of such an organl'
cation he portrayed in forcible Ian
guage. lie spoke of the credit bureau
which would give every merchant the
rating OF every man in the county
Trade extension and the refund of
railway fares was dwelt upon. He
said the mail order shipments were
detrimental to the merchants and to
the people and said in one county
the retailers within eight months work
reduced the mail order shipments to
that county 70 per cent. He also
said that trade abuses could be over
come. Solicitors, peddlers and fake
advertising schemes come under the
head Of trade abuses and by proper
organization these matters can be
remedied.
What Merchants Say.
]. E. Spragins-The retailers or
ganization is a good thing. We had
cne here once and l regretted tc
give it up. 1t seems, however, a hard
