that the democrats of the county arc
well satisfied with the administration
of the national, state and county af-
fairs, and there has been no suggest.
ed boiling Of the ticket in the major
ity of the voting precincts, and only in
a few precincts where bolting has
been reported, comes only from few
of the dsgruntled democrats who have
been unsuccessful in their attempts to
control the parties heretofore.
| Al the places where speaking dates
were announced there were enthusi-
astic crowds at every speaking, with
the exception of one box where there
was a Misunderstanding as to tho
date of the speaking.
Congressman G. d. Carter reached
Ardmore Friday noon, and went in
company with Judge Champion and
Senator Tucker, and spoke at Durwood
and Mary Niblack. His was won
derful message. He discussed nation.
al issues chiefly. giving a wonderful
defense of the legislative record of tho
| Wilson administration. He also took
occasion to condemn the purported
socialist election law, showing that ii
was an attempt upon ,ne part of the
bosses of the socialist party, and "A
few of the corrupt leaders of the re-
publican party to get control of tho
election machinery of the state and
take away from the elected officers OF
the state any right to make recon-
mendatiOns as to who shall constitute
the state election board and the COUP
ty election board.
Judge Champion, when asked for
his report on the weeks work, had
the following to say:
"There has been more and better
campaign work done In Carter county
this year than there has been done in
any state and national election since
statehood. The democrats as whole
are alive and in my judgment. tho
largest democratic vote will be pOlled
on Tuesday than ever before in the
county. Not only the democrats salts
fled with the administration, but peo-
pie who belong to other parties are
making no complaint, and a general
satisfaction seems to prevail In all
parts of the county with the national.
state and county ticket"
Senator Tucker had the following
to say Of the weeks work
while ii has been personal sacri-
fee for me to spend the entire week
in the campaign for the democratic
party, feel after having sacrificed my
time that ! have been more than com
pensated for such sacrifice. The farm
ers left their work in the fields and
came out to the speaking; they seem
ed to be satisfied with the Wilson
and the majority OF
them expressed thmselves as being
willing to make any reasonable sacri-
fee themselves in the interest OF the
democratic ticket. They also state
that they are satisfied with the prices
Of their products under the demo
cratic administration, as compared
with the prices which they had OBJ
.ained under the republican admins
ration and to our surprise we found
hat practically all men whom we met,
regardless Of party affliation, admit
ed that should the republican noml-
lees for president and vice-president
be successful in this election. that
hey feared the result would be war.

The producers. upset business, and

lonal strength in every part; in other
words, they seem to be entirely con
