week by the Poll Players. will be in
the nature of farewell production by
the present company, the new Poll or
ganization being scheduled to take
charge the week following. Every the
atergoer recalls the tremendous vogue
this big drama of French life attained
In New York and Chicago three years
ago. 1t depicts the downfall of a worn
an who is untrue to her marital vows.
Twenty years after the opening scene
the woman Is shown in a miserable
bordeaux inn, accompanied by LaroQue
the man who had shared her iii for
tunes in South America. Half crazed by
a. drug which she uses to deaden her
thoughts, she terminates O quarrel with
her peramour by shooting him. She is
put on trial for her life and the yorng

her is her own son. The play reaches
it's greatest dignity and power in the
femous courtroom scene.

Editor Ardmoreite:
Possibly a word from this land Of
mild winter weather, and winter vegp-
tables and flowers, would be of inter
est to your readers, and our OHlahO-
ma friends,
We landed at Ocala, Dec 49, and
received hearty, good welcome. We
were made to feel at home at once.
The people have been exceedingly kind
We have a splendid large brick church
and an elegant parsonage. We are
having large congregations, and a
constantly growing interest in church
work We are much pleased. Ocala
is a beautiful little city of 5000 or
more, with fine court house, and post
office building, several substantial
banks, and plenty of good stores, and
some large hotels. There are many
beautiful homes also. The people ap-
pear prosperous and happy. There are
some fine farms and elegant country
homes near the city The climate is
simply delightful. have not felt
better in ten years. | can walk and
walk and ! don't seem to get tired.
My feet though pretty good size,
seem light as bags of wool, my ap-
petite, well, | will not say; only fine
grape fruit is % cents per dozen, and
nice oranges one cent each, Fresh
vegetables, fish and oysters cheap;
that's enough.
The country looks poor as compar-
ed with the great west Agriculture as
practiced there, is different here.
There is such a diversity of crops
here that money is made from other
sources than raising cotton and corn,
etc. Many people from the north
spend the winter here. Many are set
Ting here, and making homes They
all seem delighted, and say they do
not want to leave Florida. They like
it very much, but there is a warm
ness about the heart when we think
of the dear friends in Oklahoma.
But enough for this time.

two iramortals-Robert E. Lee and "Stonewaii
Jackson. The record Of these men is a pnceiess
HERITAGE to the South and to recur 10 that record
from time to time is alike a duty and a source
of inspiration.
Although the South went down in defeat in a
struggle memorable for its magnitude and the
ferceness with which it was fought, IT has the
satisfaction of having produced military leaders
who have no equals. Each great IN his way
Lee and Jackson IN military skill take the very
first rank-a position freely accorded them oF
critics competent to Judge.
And what makes their record OF even greater
value still is that Lee and Jackson were. botn
stainless men, both humble Christians, both men
who bore without abuse the grand old name OF
gentleman
Jackson, un,app,ly, was not spared to ala III
the restoration of the South, but had he lived
he would 10 doubt have lef the noble l1e that
Lee lived and have consec1ard his mind and
energies TO some noble and unseltlsh calling like
that of Lees.
General Lees service to the South in peace
was on a scale similar in magnitude to his ser
vice in war. The single incident OF his refusal
to sell his name to ali insurance company III ex-
change for a salary that would have made INN
independent~for life was of incalculable value to
the South and to the whole nation tor that
matter, revealing as it did a hlehmlndedness
and a nobility. of soul that will serve as a shining
example as long as men shall find pleasure and
inspiration in the perusal of the history of men
who have left their impress upon the life Of the

LET US GO FORWARD.

North Carolina is making Roadway IN progress
siye LEGISLATION. but we have not yet gone all the
way and there are States which have set tor us
an example which we might we'll follow III our
efforts TO secure the best for the people.
There is needed in North Carolina not alone
freight rate reduction so as to give justice to
our people and to put an end to discrimination
against us, but there should be a reduction IN
railroad passenger rates. And there is need that
wherever a trust shows its head it should be
quickly brought to terms and made to obey the
antitrust law.
What is being done in Missouri and Illinois
along these lines may well be observed with III
terest. Just now two cent fares have won a VIC
tory in Missouri, free railroad passes have beer
brought to an end in Illinois and fines have been
imposed on trusts in Missouri. Telling Of these
things here are the facts as stated in The Com
moner":
The State of Missouri won a final victory III
the 2cent passenger and maximum freight rate
cases, when Judge Mcpherson, of Iowa, dismissed
the suits Of thirteen railroads enjoining the State
from enforcing the rate laws.
On January l free railroad passes passed out
OF existence in Illinois. Neither politicians, news
paper men nor big shippers will be allowed to
ride tree. The law also prohibits public service
corporations from furnishing free gas, light, water
or telephone service to any person.
The Supreme Court Of Missouri fined twenty
lumber companies $4,000 and suspended custer
DEGREES pending their compliance with antitrust
laws. -Four firms not incorporated in Missouri
received similar treatment"

No mistake was made when John Shelton Viii
Hams was selected as the Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury, and no mistake has been made IN
his selection as the Comptroller Of the Currency.
In the first position he has made such a splendid
record that admiringiy Senator Reed declared
ia man ever proved a clean bill of health Mr..
Williams did SO" after the Senate Committee on
Banking and Currency had concluded an inquiry
into the conduct OF Mr.. Williams as Assistant
Secretary Of the Treasury in connection with a
recent furry in Wall Street.
There were whispers that Mr.. Williams was an
ally Of the Ryan and Morgan and other interests.
This was d most curious state OF affairs, for the
truth is that there has been no more determined
opponent Of the Wall Street group of big finan-
ciers than John Shelton Williams, and yet the.
very opposite OF this fact has been alleged, the
fact that Mr.. Williams is a banker of ability and
a power in finance melting his opponents to
activity in efforts to have his nomination as
Comptroller Of the Currency antagonized. And
these opponents are really Wall Street inte1es
which have found Mr., Williams a lion in their
path of the march Of their plans.
The truth is that Thomas F. Ryan has never
had a more vigorous opponent than John Skel

interests time and again to their ture
