Oklahoma City. Sept le.-W. R.
Samuels, OF Vinita, the newly elected
manager OF the state democratic
campaign committee, arrived in the
city Monday TO take charge OF the
campaign. He is a native Missourian
about forty years old \ democrat
Of the old south type, born and bred
in the atmosphere.
He located in Mcintosh and Mayes
counties sixteen Years ago and has
/ always been a faction harmonizer
( where harmony was needed in both
/ city, county and state government.
/ He was mayor of Eufaula and later
went into the banking business. He
was appointed special bank examiner
under the present bank commissioner
and then did he demonstrate that
he could save the state thousands of
dollars by his diplomatic management
of weak financial institutions
In the statehood fight Mr. Samuels
was a member of the executive com
mittee and a prominent factor in the
work in the northeastern counties
and was the most influential worker
for Judge Jesse Dunn in the entire
contest fight.
When Mr.. Cruce was nominated for
governor Mr. Samuels was chosen sec
retary of the state campaign com
mittee which elected him governor
and also the entire ticket by an over
whelming majority. He did all the
detail work and proved himself the
best organizer in the state demo.
cratic party.
To him is attributed the first cam
paign secretaryship who ever paid
all campaign expenses without leaving
one cent Of debt against the commit
tee after the winning contest was
over. The committee will take no
money from any concern or corpora
tion which will in any way be used
in legislation and affecting the peo,
pies prosperity.
Honesty, efficiency and economy in
state government is Manager Samuels'
slogan and his pledge to the citizen
ship Of oklahoma for the entire
ticket
Judge Williams, father of the good
government movement, pledges him
self to stand firmly by the managers
those who know Judge
Williams best know that he will have J
the support of the entire democratic I
party to aid in carrying out this {
promise. The achievement of the par (
ty since statehood is mequalled by !
any state in the union since the s
of federal government. Q
Missouri democracy was hoodwink- b
I'd in the election Of a republican 5
governor, Hadley, in 1908, believing {
hat change would lessen the bur h
len of taxation and bring about O
more efficient government. But one "
erm Of republicanism in that state C
atslied the citizens and they real
2ed that they had made a serious
mistake at a great cost and when
he first opportunity presented itself
he great commonwealth of that
tate placed the government back
nto the hands of the democratic
'arty for all time by forty thousand
majority
Mr.. Samuels is a man of excel
ent discernment and frmness, and
nder his leadership the democratic
arty of Oklahoma is certain to
larch to victory.

To maintain a clear, white, youthful

use and yet so effective rs ordinary mer-
ccoiized wax, which you can get at any
drugstore. Just apply the wax at night
as you would cold cream. In the morn

you've never tried 1t you can't imagine
the magical effect of this harmless home
treatment. 1t causes the old WORKOUT
SCARF skin to come off in minute par
tlcies, little at a time, and soon you
nave entirely shed the offensive cuticle.
The fresh young underskn now in evil

so free from any appearance of artific-

heard or this marvellous complexion-re-
newing secret long ago.
Equally magical in it's action is a SIM

New York was quarantined long enough
to vaccinate everybody in it, and it was
then discovered that the elevator boy only
had chickenpox after all. Over in Ma
CARA Falls, New York, an epidemic OF
chickenpox was made the excuse for vaccl-
mating people, and it was then announced
that but for the prompt vaccination of
those who consented to vaccination the
entire State of New York would have had
the worst visitation of smallpox ever
known anywhere. 1t is still claimed by
the 'health' authorities at odd times
when not engaged in certifying" tuber-
culous milk and advising the farmers to
feed dead animals to hogs and the poor
to eat bologna made from sick COWS which
have been killed if they lived until the
butcher got to them, that there were cases
Of smallpox at Niagara Falls, although no
one was very sick except the vaccinated
and no one died except three persons from
vaccination.

"Chicago School of Sanitary instruction, -
whatever that is, and endorsed by the "De-
partment of Health, G. B. Young M. D.,
Commissioner, contains an apology for
an error in the previous issue wherein
smallpox was credited with figures which
should have appeared under "chicken-
pox." The Bulletin is unnecessarily oc-
cupying valuable space. The reporting Of
chickenpox as smallpox is quite the thing
in health board circles. Over in Philadel-
phia not long ago since, whole district

MAILING THE LIAR

North Tonawanda, N. Y, December s,
1914 Editor ''Peril'':
I received the "Bulletin" Of the "Chi-
cago School Of Sanitary Instruction COM
ing from the Department Of HEALTH" G..
B. Young, M. D., Commissioner, in which
occurs the following statement: "The
person that is successfully vaccinated can
not possibly have smallpox" The writer
Of that statement is too ignorant Of cur
rent medical literature to be looked to for
reliable sanitary instruction, or too dis
honest to be trusted in matters pertaining
to the prevention Of smallpox There has
never occurred an epidemic Of smallpox
in Europe, since the introduction Of vacci-
nation, that did not begin in vaccinated
person. In the army Of the Philippines
the soldiers were vaccinated as regularly
as they had post drill, and Surgeon-G Gen
eral Lippincot states in his report, that no
army was ever more thoroughly vacci-
mated, and yet in five years they had 737
case of smallpox causing 261 deaths; and
on the battleship, Ohio, they had twenty
eight cases Of smallpox, causing five
deaths, last year, and everybody knows
that they were all successfully vaccinated
Again in Japan, every child born within
the Empire, is successfully vaccinated be-
fore it is one year old; again at six years
of age, and again at fourteen years Of age,
and then every five to seven years there
after, and yet, in the year 1908 there were
18,067 cases Of smallpox notified, and 1886
deaths from that disease during that year.
These statistical facts do not show that
''the person that is successfully vaccinated
cannot possibly have smallpox" I could
multiply these undenyable facts thou
sand fold. Let it suffice to state that DR..
Roby, Of Cook County Hospital Of Chicago,
ILL.,, after repeated vaccinations had small
poX and was sent to the pest house; and
DR.. Fennesy, of Rochester, N. Y, was
vaccinated successfully eleven times, and
two months after the eleventh vaccination,
he came down with smallpox; and DR..
John E. Stanton, of Philadelphia, Pa, after
having been vaccinated twenty-four times
came down with smallpox, and died Of the
disease on July 10, 1903.
Allow one more citation showing in my
judgment the ignorance or dishonesty Of
Chicago Health Commissioner, James Mar
son, M. D., F. R. G. S., in Renyald's Sys-
tenn Of Medicine, Volume one, article

Blind from Vaccination

Evaline Sequerra, 46 S. Emerson St.,
New Bedford, Mass, vaccinated at years
Of age at the latter part of August, 1913,
at the Board Of Health office. One week
later rash appeared all over her body.
The first M. D. said it was connected with
the vaccination, but in three weeks time
he advised a specialist to be called in. The
specialist got about three hundred dollars
out of the parents then he was 81 fred.
About seven NJ D.. have attended her,
today she is totally blind, and tuberculous.
The picture was taken July "a, 1914. 1t
has cost the parents about $3.50 besides
year Of trouble and anxiety, and the poor
child is worse than dead.
There is no recourse against the doctor.
He is more immune from just punishment
than his blind victim is from the smallpox.
If a person without medical diploma had
caused this deplorable state he would have
been severely punished. And this is free
