WHY HAMPER
WOODROW WILSON
TO REFUSE TO SEND GORE BACK
TO THE SENATE MEANS WILL
SON WILL LOSE ABLE ALLY.

There is no use of fellow trying
to fool himself" said an Ardmore cit
izen this morning. | have been almost
in every nook and corner of the state
recently and have made special efforts
to ascertain the relative strength of
Gore and Hayes for the United States
senate and | am thoroughly convinced
that Gore will beat Hayes probably
two to one. There are several reasons
why this is true. President Wilson is
very popular in Oklahoma among all
classes of citizens and they feel that
Senator Gore is very close to the
president and that the president would
be glad to have Oklahoma return him
to the senate to help in carrying out
his plans for the common good of the
country There is another feature and
that is Cores seniority in the senate.
This is the feature that won Owen so
easily over Haskell. The people felt
that Haskell would require a long
period of time ever to get to place
where he could render the service to
Oklahoma that Owen was equipped to
render at once on account of his SEMI
ority, and they feel the same way
concerning Gore and Hayes"
When asked about the personal
standing of Hayes this gentleman said
Hayes is well thought of in every
section of the state where he is
known, and they are becoming ac-
quainted with him in his campaign,
They state that Hayes is good man,
but not a better man than Gore, and
they do not see why a change should
be made. They do not see why Okla
homa should be weakened in the Unit
ed States Senate and they do not see
why any barriers should be placed in
the way of Woodrow Wilson who is
making the greatest record for re-
form legislation of any president ever
chosen in America"
The people seem to be counting the
cost of the change. They want to know
what is to be gained by sending up a
new man to explore the halls of con-
gress. The south has always hereto
fore weakened itself by changing its
men. Those who have grown strong
and who have influenced legislation,
are men who have been in the senate
for many years. The south has allowed
itself to make too many changes, the
voters have allowed themselves to be-
come displeased with little things and
have defeated the best interests of the
south by being impatient and impetu-
Gus in making up their minds how they
will vote and by being tickle with their
public men. This section of OklahO-
ma has always been loyal to Senator
Gore. The Chickasaw Nation gave him
a big majority in the first campaign
and while Judge Hayes has host Of
good friends here, he will never be
able to break into the Gore strength in
Carter, Love and Marshall counties.
Those who keep in closest touch with
the situation are of the opinion that
Gore will beat Hayes over the state
two to one.

SLEEP WILL Be
GREATEST MENACE
TO THE TRANSATLANTIC FLYER
WHILE SHIMMING OVER The
ATLANTIC OCEAN.
(By X. w. PAYNE.)

One tremendous terror menaces
Lieut.. Porte as he prepares for mis-
world-startling transatlantic flight.
Not storm, not fog, nor airpockets,
not failure of the engines, not frailty
OF the planes.
Sleep! 1t is the siren sleep who
presages most peril to the daring
birdman in his great attempt
Will Lieut.. Porte doze off heavily
at the wheel under the oppressive
weight of utter fatigue, perhaps when
the peaks of the Azores, his first stop,
already loom above the line of the
sea, and will his plane, lurching sud.
denly as his languld grip releases on
the wheel, careen downwards and car
ry both pilot and his assistant to
death?
That is no idle difficulty. 1t is
problem, which all his brother bird
men, watching Porte's mighty under.
taking, are very seriously considering.
For they have each and all felt at
some time or other the deadly grip
of drowsiness.
Sang the Ancient Mariner, in Col
eridges famous poem:
"Oh sleep! 1t is a gentle thing,
Beloved from pole to pole
To Mary Queen the praise be given;
She sent the gentle sleep from
heaven
That slid into my soul"
No Praise Here.
But our modern mariner, Lieut.
Porte, sailor of the Atlantic skies,
has no such pleasant praise for "be-
loved sleep. 1t is to be his worst
enemy, more like an evil siren, lur-
ing him to destruction, than like a
gift from heaven.
Sleep, evoked by The glare of sun
on water, by the rush of wind, by
the monotonols, rhythmic music of
the motors, may rise treacherously
over him, grip him in her magic spell,
drug him-bring him to his death
1t will be a mighty fight that Lieut..
Porte must wage against that fate.
In other respects he is fairly Sc
cure. The marvellous engines of his
transatlantic airboat have stood
their test to perfection, and have
shown that, under all the strain of
the first 20 hour lap in the long flight
they will race faithfully with never
stop.

Southern Railway Company

oO0OAhOAI
70 Shippers and Receivers of Freight
in North Carolina:
Attention is called to revised tariffs
containing rates fortthe transportation
If freight between points in North
Carolina, effective October 13, 1914
These tariffs are issued in accordance
With the decision of the Special Rate
Commission, dated August IL, 1914.
All freight tariffs of the Southern
Railway Company in conflict with the
provisions Of this order have been can
;eled OF revised to conform to the rat
IS, rules and regulations prescribed by
The Special Rate Commission.
Special attention is called to the fact
hat in application Of this new law,
many important changes and new CON
iitions r brought about, the kow-
edge Of which is essential to- every
shipper and receiver of freight in
North Carolina. Ordinarily there is
out n rate between any two points
within the State. Under the new law
5here will be as many rates between
Two givn points as, tire are available
,outes between such points. A new
oasis for making joint rates with other
lines is provided and the shipper has
the right to select the shortest avail
able route. Some of these routes,
while physically shorter than others.
ire longer from the standpoint Of eff
;ient service, and the movement of
freight via these unusual routes will
necessarily require more time than if
sent via o efficient routes.
Shippers should in all S insert
IN the bill Of lading the route over
which it is desired that the shipment
move. If shipments are rendered to
agents of this Company and desired to
4 point on its own line, but without
specific routing instructions, it will be
assumed that it is the desire of the
shipper that the shipment move over
The Southern Railway at its lawfully
established rate, even though a lower
cate may be in force via another route.

Recently occurred the anniversary
Of the visit to "Hamelin Town in

ARE QUICK TO HEAL
MODERN BULLETS MORE HUMANE
THAN THOSE OF THE PAST.
Soldiers Are Not Long Absent From
the Front, Even When They
Would Be Considered Quite
Seriously Injured.

The bullet covered with hard nickel
now In use makes the surgeons task
very simple. as a rule. Formerly.
when large bullets Of soft lead were
used. the soldiers lot was not very
happy one These often broke up In
side the body. shattered bones, and
frequently remained embedded in the
muscles, bones and other parts. :
The result was slow-healing. Tester
ing wounds which kept the soldier III
for a long time The modern long.
slender bullet generally passes through
the body without doing any vital in
jury. Even when it goes through the
intestine, the stomach. the kidney,
ETC., the wound closes up without any
very serious after-consequences A
good deal. however. depends on cir
cumstances. II the soldiers stomach
is empty-as 1t generally is In bat
tle--so much the better for him when
he gets a bullet through It.
When he is tired and half starving,
however, the shock is very great, and
he may become utterly helpless from q
slight wound. A curious fact. difficult
to explain, is that a bullet fred at
range Of 300 to 600 yards has more
penetrating power than one fired at q
range under or over that distance.
In the former case It passes through
the bone without doing very much
damage; In the latter it skaters the
bone and makes recovery slow. A
ricocheting bullet causes very bad
wound as rule. Small as It is, If q
bullet strikes a large bone. like the
hip. it gives a blow like that of
crowbar
We are hearing a great deal about
dum-dum bullets in this. as in all wars,
both parties making charges against
one another. The probability Is that
neither side is using them. The bullet
now in use consists Of core Of lead
covered with hard nickel case
