OUT OPPOSITION - sUFFRA
GETTEs OPPOSE.

London, April S.-Asquith again
became member of the house OF
commons today when he was return

had put in an appearance, Asquith
was declared duly elected.
Militant suffragettes had prepared
for an active campaign against
Premier Asquith in the election
through which he sought indorse-
ment of his administration.
Many Suffragettes believe that
the premier alone stands between
them and the vote. Their hatred
for him is intense, and repeated ef-
forts have been directed against
him. The suffragettes had women
in Cupar organizing the opposition
forces.
Gen" Drummond directed the
campaign. The authorities recog-

After an inspection of the geogra-
phies adopted by the state board

plains had been made that they
were old and out of date the board
found that instead Cf the books be-
ing in the condition reported they
contain the very latest information
about Oklahoma and other matters
complained of. Members of the
board believe that some one got
hold of an old copy of the geoera-
ply and thought he had the one
just adopted.
\ story was sent ont from Musko-
gee several DAYS ago to the effect
that the geography selected still
gave Guthrie as the capital of the
state, mentioned New Mexico and
Arizona as territories and contained
many other errors.
Instead of that, the books adopt
ed give Oklahoma City as the cap
ital and all population is based upon
the 1910 federal census, the last
one taken. The book gives eXhaus-
tive accounts of the resources of
Oklahoma by sections, some of the
very latest pictures of street scenes
in the largest cities, and a large
amount OF other information con
cerning the state.

ones being a double page featuring

of the plan, he said it was a good
thing, and congratulated The Ard

and said: Just put me down for
200 couples of the paper just to
show you that | am in hearty ac-
cord with the scheme. Sheriff Gar
rett was not alone in his well wish
es. The following county officials
registered for a like number: w.
B. Frame, register of deeds, L. NJ.
county superintendent of
public instruction; F.. S. Haynle,
district clerk, and John J. Yell
treasurer.
Inquiries are coming from every
quarter asking for information. all
seem to realize that The Ardmoreite
is doing something different and
exerting every effort to put Ardmore
on the commercial map of the world
and it is pleasing to the manage
ment to note that there are but few
in the city who are unwilling to-
assist in getting out this great edi-
ton, which will do so much to boost
Ardmore and Carter county.
Among the early contributors to
the edition is the First National
bank. This progressive institution
showed its hearty cooperation in
boosting the town by reserving a
