OLDEST CITIZENS.

The following item, appearing in
a recent edition of an Oklahoma pa
per is of interest to many Tazewell
people:
Norman, Okla, July 4.-Fiftieth
anniversaries are not extraordinari-
ly uncommon but anniversaries that
reach beyond the half century mark
are very rare. The subjects of this
notice are couple who have been
married more than sixty-eight years.
They are Mr.. and Mrs. w. p. Max
well, of West Simmons Street, Nor
man, Okla. If they live until Deem
Der 18th of the present year they will
have been married. sixty nine years.
Mr.. Maxwell was born at Jeffer-
sonvillc, Tazewell county, Va, June
II, 1923. The date of his birth is
more than twenty years before our
war with Mexico and his age would
easily have permitted him to serve in
it and in the civil war. With the ex-
cetion of his hearing he is still hale
and hearty and shows few of the age
signs that are common to people of
his years. He does not walk with u
cane nor wear glasses and does his
portion of the work toward taking
care of an eleven-room house and s
lots. When asked what he attribut-
ed his health and advanced age, he
replied, "clean living."He has never
drank, smoked or chewed and has
been a member of the Methodist
church, South, ever since he can re-
member. Besides being n Methodist
and man of lifelong clean habits
he is also died-in-the wool demo-
crat, and says he will always vote
that ticket.
Mrs. Maxwell is two years his jun
ior. She was born October o, 1926,
in the same Virginia county as her
husband. She shows her age perhaps
more so than Mr.. Maxwell, but has no
infirmities and usually enjoys good
health. She does her own house
work including the cooking and wash
ing for four.
They were married at Jefferson
vile Va, December IL, 1876, and NOV
ed to Jamesport, Mo-, in 1860, just
previous to the beginning of Lincoln's
first administration. In 1895 thew
left Missouri and came to Oklahoma,
settling on farm eight miles east
of Oklahoma City. In 1903 they NOV
ed to Norman and have lived there
ever since.
In IL there were seven children
born to this union, four of whom are
now living. They are: James A.
Maxwell, of Norman; Mrs. Annabell
Thompson, of Norman MRS. l.. Sartin,
of Jamesport, Mo-; William Henry
Maxwell, of Norman. The young
est and oldest son are at home living
with their parents.

Many of tho Smaller Ones MereI,

In old Bavarlan districts many OF the
smaller towns are merely walled farm

narrow road or street runs from gate

set back close to the lnclosing wall.
The ground floor OF these houses af-
fords stabling for cattle, and from
these stables the cows are driven out
through the town gates in the morn
Ing and brought In at night. Town
ships like this are merely clusters of
houses intimately connected with the
farm lands that lie beyond their gates.

THE NATIONS FOE.

Our children are In danger
while the saloon stands.
When a mans tracks point
toward the saloon, his back is
toward heaven.
Many man dies on the scat
fold who wouldn't, if there were
no saloon.
1t is still recoMedin the Bible
that no drunkard shall inherit
the kingdom of God.
Prove that there is no hell
and whisky men will be about
the first to throw up their hats.
Trying to make the world
better and doing nothing to des-
troy the saloon, is a good deal
like trying to kill snake by
pinching the end of it's tail.
1t is the moderate drinkers
who keep the saloons going.
Every woman who has to
1--we with n drunken husband.
knows that the devil is still
loose.
Many procession that is
marching straight toward the
pit is headed by a moderate
drinker.
The man who can drink whis-
key all his life, without being
hurt by it is no account for
anything else.
AT the sight of glass of
beer, many man is ready to
sell the birthright of his chill
dren to have II sober father
AS long rs the devil can keep
the saloon going, he will con-
clude that the thousand years
he is to be shut up are n long
way off.

Don't NEEDLE in Progressive Affairs.

The following article is published
by request of the Representatives of
the Progressive party in the county:
Graham, Va, Aug. "a, 1914.
Editor Graham Daily News:
In reference to your articles, in
which you presume to undertake to
manage the affairs of the Progressive
party, l write TO remind you that
you are Taft-Slemp. Republican,
stcnd-pat postmaster and not n MEM
Der of the Progressive party. You do
not and cannot know the affairs of
The Progressive party, and have no
right to misrepresent it in the Ora
ham Daily News. If you would DIN,
in good faith, the Progressive party,
and could be loyal to it, you might
be taken into its confidence.
1t is the intention of the Progress
sive party men to publish n newspa-
per to truthfully represent us here.
In your article of 23rd. inst. YOU
name II number of Republican Office
holders and delegates to the Repub
!ican Bristol convention, who you SAY
wi! undertake to overthrow the ac
tons of the executive committee Of
the Taaeweli CoCn.y Committee of
the National Progressive Party. As
member of that committee here
with advise you that the actions of
that committee are proper and regu-
lar and by unanimous agreement of
all the members of our committee and
are confirmed by the members of the
Progressive party and will be sus
tanned against any tricks and schemes
of the Republicans. DIR. Wittcn dis
qualified himself and our committee
very properly Immediately accepted
his resignation and appointed his sue
cessor.
1t is untrue that the Progressive
party organization had anything to
do with the Republicans mt Bristol.
on the contrary they refused to have
any dealings with them, preserving
the straight Progressive party or
gnnization for the Progressivcs of
the ninth district to vote for Roosevelt
and the Progressive party ticket.
The chairman of the national COM
mittce of the Progressive party pub
lished the following, which Col.
Roosevelt personally conlirmed: Col.
Roosevelt and the National committee
are opposed to the election of Mr..
Slemp, the Republican nominee, M well
MS the Democratic nominee for Con-
grcss, in the ninth district. Mr..
Slemp was delegate to the Chicago
convention in Juneu 1912, and voted
against the nomination of Colonel
Roosevelt and for the nomination of
Mr.. Taft. He was one of the most
active opponents of Col. Roosevelt ut
the Chicago convention. He is not
entitled to any support by the friends
of Col. Roosevelt or the Progrrcss-
i've cause"
Mr.. Graham having been honored
with the support and Endorsement of
Col. Roosevelt the National, State
and district and county organizations
and the individuals Of the Progress
i've party is not in need of the APPROX
al of the stand-pat Republicans.

TO KING BOOZE.

King Booze, you must depart,
West Virginia has so ruled;
To drunkards' shameful graves
you've led
Those whom you have fooled.
Your victims sobs no more will

Throes of a tyrannical reign;
But King Booze's curse will
e'er hang DER
Those whom you have slain.
Wives woeful tales We'll no

The dove of peace will soar;
Superior generations will sue

The one you disgraced of yore.
Your revenue nomorewe'll need
Your penal castles to upkeep
Vice and crime shall terminate
Yor your doom you are now to
meet.
Where you will go we all can't

But I think that can tell;
To get your dues you'll follow
those
Whom you have sent to hell.
