Mined AZ Years for T. c., l.
& r. r. Company.

G. w. Richardson, of Victoria,
holds the lecord for the longest
service in any one company digg-
ing coal. He has been in the
employ of the T. O., | e. Il. h.
Go, for AZ years, and is now SUBJ
ject to the pension allowance by
the company for faithful service,
which is 40 cents per day for
over twenty years service, and 20
cents extra for the next twenty
years service. Mr.. Richardson
will DO entitled In consequence
to go cents per day. During this
long term of service he has suffer
ed only one accident. He got a
knee hurt by an iron bar slipping
and striking him when he was
resetting prop that threatened
to give way. He asked the COM
pany for nothing and was sur
prised to find pay check wait
ing him in the office of the COM
pany for the 23 days that he
could not work on account of the
injury. The pay was based on
$500 per day.
A peculiar point, so Mr., Rich
ardson says, was raised when he
went back to work without first
getting DOCTORS certificate that
he was able to do so. 1t seems
that the company has its en-
ployes insured against accident,
and when the officials found out
about Mr.. Richardson being at
work again, they came post haste
to stop him, as it seems the in
surance policy contained a clause
that rendered it worthless if an
injured man returned to work
without first getting the compa-
ny physician to certify that he
was able to perform manual labor.
Mr.. Richardson nor the company
could secure any damage If he
was again injured. This he had
failed to do, hence he was dis
charged for the first and only time
in his life, but reinstated as soon
as he got the DOCTORS certificate.

Mans Religion" not the effemi.
nate religion that was preached

Then You've Got En-.

The following by John Simp-
son appeared in The Tampa,
(Florida, Daily Times of Feb
ruary IA:
One of these nights while you lie
dreaming,
Into your room thers'll come, a.
screaming,
A big black Wompus with green
ish eyes
And plumaged Devil with aw-
full cries
And an eerie shaped thing all
covered with hair
Will shrek and howl while you
tremble there.
And a shiny snake with a glist-
ening hide
Will coil and sing just by your
side,
And a green-eyed Monkey with
pink phizog
Will gallop about, astride hog;
And back in the corner where
you threw your coat
Is the warlike image of q Wilt
am Goat.
And the face of a friend who has
long been dead,
Will lurk in the shadows around
, your bed;
With pallied face and death-glaz-
ed eye,
And on his lips tortured cry
And close to your side he will
come and stand
And soothe your brow with his
clammy hand.
And there in the floor where you
left your hat,
With back all arched, is a Maltese
cat;
And tall Giraffe, with a bow
and a smile,
Is making love to Crocodile,
And Polar bear with a growl
ss-es and roar,
Will enter your room through a
tight-closed door.
And you'll figure and fume bu:
you can't make out
just what the Devil it's all
about!
And you'll tell yourself and twill
be quite true
That you didn't start out to see
the Zoo,
And for your life, you just can't
see
How you happened to reach this
menagerie.
Then you'll reach for your bottle,
your dearest friend"
And hallucination will reach an
end
For you'll take a big drink and
your fears are quelled
And the shadowy visions are all
dispelled
But e'er you repose for another
snOoZe--
Take this advice-CUT OUT THE
BOOZE.

NO. IL
Tribute to a Dog.

attending court in a country
town. He was urged by the at
torneys in dog case to help
them. Evidence showed that
the defendant had shot the dog
in malice, while other evidence
showed that the dog had attacked
defendant. Being thus urged,
he arose, scanned the face of each
juryman for moment, and said /:
"Gentlemen of the Jury: The
best friend a man has in the
world may turn against him and
become his enemy. His son or
daughter, that he has reared with
loving care, may prove ungrate-
fnl. Those who are nearest and
dearest to lus, those whom we
trust with our happiness and our
good name, may become traitors
to their faith. The money that q
man has he may lose. 1t flies
away from him, perhaps, when
he needs it most. A mans repu-
tation may be sacrificed in a mo-
ment of ill.considered action.
The people who are prone to fall
on their knees, to do us honor
when success is with us may be
the first to throw the stone of
malice when failure settles it's
cloud upon our heads. The one
absolutely unselfish friend that a
man can have in this selfish
world. the one that never deserts
him, the one that never proves
ungrateful or treacherous is his
dog. A mans dog stands by him
in prosperity aud poverty, in
health and in sickness. He will
rleep on the cold ground when
the wintery winds blow and the
snow drives fiercely, if only he
may be near his masters side. Z
He will kiss the hand that has no
food to offer; he will lick the
wounds and sores that come in
encounter with the roughness of
the world. He guards the sleep
of his pauper master as if he were
a prince. When all other friends
desert he remains. When riches
take wings and reputation falls
to pieces he is constant in his
love as the sun in his journey
through the heavens.
"If fortune drives the master
forth an outcast in the world,
friendless and homeless, the faith
full dog asks no higher privilege
than that of accompanying him,
to guard against danger, to fight
against his enemies. And when
the last scene of all comes, and
death takes the master In it's en-
brace, and his body is laid away
in the cold ground, no matter if
all other friends pursue their
way, there by the graveside will
the noble dog be found, his head
between his paws, his eyes sad
but open in alert watchfulness,
faithful and true, even in DEATH"
Then Vest sat down. He made
no reference to the evidence or
merits of the case. When he
had finished Judge and jury were
wiping their eyes. The jury filed
out but soon returned with ver-
dict in favor of the plaintiff for
$500. He had sued for 5000. 1t
is even said that some of the iur-
ors wanted to hang the defend
ant.-Nashville Banner.

For Representative.

During the past few days the
editor of this paper has decided
to make the race before the Au-
gust primary for the democratic
nomination for state representa-
tive from this district, which
consists of Cotton and Conan
che counties and is entitled to
two representatives.
In announcing for office we
feel that a mans character and
daily life say much more than all
the words he may utter through
the medium of newspaper, but
for the benefit of some readers
in the county at a distance we
will say a few things as to our
qualifications for the office.
II. p. Wettengel was born and
raised on a farm in Illinois, is
40 years old, and has kept in
touch with the interests of the
farmer all his life by reading
farm journals and by constant
contact with them.
He taught in rural and high
schools for eight years, giving
the work his closest attention
and never lost five minutes of
time from the school room dur
ing the eight years. He attend
ed normal school, college and
university and holds Life State
Teachers certificate in Illinois.
One year he xas a democratic
candidate for nomination for
county superintendent Of schools.
In 1906 he was a delegate to the
Nebraska democratic state con-
vention.
He has published democratic
newspapers for over four years
been a bank cashier. and a post
master for nearly four years.
He lived in Nebraska for two
years and has lived in Oklahoma
during the past seven years.
He spent several days in the
gallery during the sessions of
the last Legislature and watched
the school boy tactics of many
members of that body who were
afraid to open their mouths on
any question and many times
changed their votes during the
reading of the roll call cn ques-
tions.
He stands squarely on a plat
form of morality, economy, and
efficiency in Office and the aboli-
tiOn of many things causing our
high taxes.

What A Husband Does.

An exchange publishes an ar
ticle OF "What a husband does
when his wife goes away, and
cites the case Of one man whose
wife went on a visit.
He says. Il breathed a sigh Of
relief when the train started,
and before il was a mile out Of
the city | was holding a reunion
with two old chums in bar
room and feeling as if just out
of jail. For three days and
nights ! held reunions. most of
the time in bar-rooms; played
poker; stayed up almost all night
and had a glorious time. "
On the tenth day he went to
see his wife and told her all a.
bout what he had done, after
which she wanted him always in
her sight.
No wonder the wife Of such a
man would always want him to
be in her sight. She needed a
real man for a husband and not
pollycoddle like that. Women
who have real men for husbands
and know it are not afraid to let
them get out of their sight.

Lawton's Suburb.

In the debate at Lawton re-
Gently, one of the Lawton debat-
ers referred to the Elgin boys
as, My opponents from the
suburb of Lawton. And later
the same speaker referred to the
immortal Shakespeare. -
While Elgin is not a big
place" like Lawton. it is not al
ways quantity but sometimes
quality that counts. At the de-
bate between the same schools
in Elgin a few weeks before,
there were three times as many
people in attendance as there
were at the Lawton debate.
And 1t does seem like the
speaker, who thought he would
create a little merriment at El-
gins expense, would have been
ashamed to open his mouth on
that line before a house full of
vacant seats.
So we thought it best to call
his attention to the matter and
see whether he thought the joke
was really.on Elgin or on Law.
