Easier to Make
Star Observations

easier for the astronomers to make OBJ
servations by the stars than by the
sun. because the sun can be observed
only once day upon the meridian,
even in clear weather. while the stars
are crossing it in quick succession. All
stars cannot be taken for this pur-
pose, but there are a sufficient mum ber
whose positions are accurately known
to astronomers to give the needed aid
IN determining the errors of clocks.
Astronomers detect clock errors by
observations of the transit OF certain
Known stars over a meridian. The
Naval Observatory has two large me-
r1dian circles or transit Instruments,
mounted upon solid piers in specially
constructed buildings, made to secure
time accuracy. The greatest care in
the mounting of these instruments was
taken, as they are expected to aid the
of hundredth part of a second of time.
The telescope is provided with reti-
Gle for observing star transits. This is
a small metal frame, crossed by a num-
ber of metal threads of spidery-web
consistency. If the reticie has ten
threads it gives ten observations of
each star as it crosses the range Of
vision. The average time of these ten
observations is accepted as more reli-
able than the record of a single one.
An instrument known as chrono-
graph is used In recording observa-
tions and comparing them with clock
time The chronograph is cylinder

MAY RECOUNT BALLOTS

There is great interest all over the
state in the decision Of the Supreme
Court expected next week on the ques-
tion Of the recount Of the votes cast
on the Home Rule and Prohibition
amendments in the four large cities
of the state. The whole question
hinges on whether the Secretary of
State can act on implied authority.
The law provides for holding ballots
for 30 days for a recount to correct
errors, but is somewhat vague in pro-
viding for the actual recount. If the
court refuses recount because Of
this lack of direct legislation, the Cen
eral Assembly will be asked for law
necessary to make recount possi-
be and to prevent a repetition Of cor
ruption and fraud Of which there is
much in evidence in Cincinnati and
other places.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deafness.
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by inlamed con-
ditionl of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube Is en-
Named you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafnsess Is the result.
and unless the inflammation can be taxi
en- out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing win be desl
troyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is noth-
ing but an infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.

ELECTION UNDER BEAL LAW

|. 1t has been definitely decided to
hold an election under the Beal law to
decide whether intoxicating liquors
shall be sold in Wadsworth.
Petitions are being circulated and
there is no doubt about securing the
necessary names to petition the coun-
Gil for an election.
There were 6S5 votes cast at the
last municipal election in 1918, which
would necessitate at least 274 names
to call an election. At the recent
election there were SS7 votes polled,
and If the some number turn out at
the Beal law contest, the winners
must secure 419 votes.
The election will probably be held
on Tuesday, December Is.

Supreme Purpose to Give
Public Service

Judge r. l.. Williams, the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor. spoke
as follows to the state convention in
Oklahoma City:
II am mindful of the great honor
that has come to me on the part OF
the Democracy Of this state. I am
mindful of the partiality of my
friends. but through that partially
comes to me the loyal support OF ev
cry good democrat in this state
Nov. what does that call for at
my hands? That means that am
to love the Democratic party and be
faithful toward it. That means that
am TO be true to every, democrat
in this state as well as to every citi-
zen OF Oklahoma. That is the kind
o. public service that this nomina-
tion requires, not only OF the head
of the ticket but OF every man on
the ticket. This is the kind OF pub
JIG rervice and public devotion that
is to give The people Of this state a
great government and good govern
ment, and silence the mouth OF those
that would put stand-patters in pow
er en- false pretenses and deceit.
Where was the head OF the Re
publican ticket and the men VINO are
promoting that ticket when we bat.
tied for statehood and assembled al
Guthrie to write the constitution and
give the people of this state local
self government? They were the men
against statehood; they we're the
men against the adoption Of the con
stitution, and fought against It. That
is the way they planned and devised
and they said the men who Assem-
bled there were crazy and a inensct
to good government.
NOV, you can't expect those mer
to find anything good in re history
er in the record OF the Deniocrati,
palos Of this state. What they wan
to do is to get in power and get t
the pie counter that they held in thu
pjutocratic days when corporation,
ruthlessly ruled this country. frd i
they would get into power In thil

would put the corporate power int

great state are going to elect tn,
