has been our custom to observe the
first week in January as week of
prayer and thanks offering for our
work in China. What blessed priv
ilege it is to have some part in bring
ing to China's women the message
that the angels brought to the shep-
herds, the tidings of great JOY which
should be to all people, of the savior
who is Christ the Lord.
When we fully appreciate our OPP
portunities and obligations we will be
anxious to measure up to our duty.
"Give as you would to the Savior if
you met his loving look,
Give as you would if his dear hand
the proffered offering took"
On Wednesday, during the week OF
prayer, the young ladies rendered g
very interesting program on China.
On January 10 the society had the
first business meeting of the new
year. Plans for the year was dis
cussed at length but definite actor
was postponed until the next meet
ing.
Mrs. J. J. Doyne was elected presi
dent, Mrs. O. O. Florence first vice
president, and Mrs. A. j. Meador'

CELEBRATE
WILSON'S
NEW LEAD
Democrats Engage in Demonstration
Learning that Wilson Took Lead
in California

The turning OF the tide in California
last night which sent the Golden State
toward the Wilson column where it
still remains, was the signal for
spontaneous demonstration on the part
of Chickasha Democrats who scented
victory for their leader in the spec
tacuIar and long to be remembered
race which has just been run.
With the repeated shrieling of the
siren, which blew too long and often
to serve as a fire alv@G, many people
hurried from their homes to town to
Join the throngs which at that hour
were issuing from the two picture
shows and Rome was made as merry
as several hundred husky Democrats
could make it with the police force
hidden out. Rome was theirs and they
made it howl, innocently enough ex
cept for a suggestion at one time that
violence be done to the expected issue
of the Daily Oklahoman which would
arrive on a later train. Cool heads
prevailed, however, and no untoward
action was taken.
A compromise was effected by build
ing bonfire in the streets at the cor
ner OF Chickasha and Fourth and cast
ing therein those copies of the Okla.
homa City paper that happened to be
in the possession of the enthusiastic
protestants.
This outburst was the outcome of
the publication by the Daily Oklaho-
man of the photograph of Hughes as
winner and by the concession Of the
election of the Republican candidate
for the presidency at the early hour
on Tuesday evening when that paper
went to press.
This followed action taken by sever
al hundred persons yesterday after
noon who signed declaration of dis
approval Of this act
Guns and every other conceivable
noise added to the deafening roar of
the celebration And speeches were
made from their cars by Oscar Simp-
son, successful candidate for county
attorney Rev. L. L. Cohen, Jr, Of the
Epworth Methodist church. and 9TH
ers, which we're loudly cheered.
Among the speakers was Mart Lou
than. captain Of the capitol police at
Washington, who was the first sheriff.
OF Grady county.
The demonstration continued until
we'll into the night and the demon
strators retired strong in the eonvic-
ton that their man had been elected
'The Republicans can do the same
thing if by any chance Hughes is elect
ed" said Mayor Coffman in reply to
a suggestion that the opposite side
might not have been given the privi-
lege of the city There is only this
difference" continued the mayor 81
told the Democrats to go ahead and ]
would join them but I would not do
this on nearing that Hughes was in
the lead"
When questioned as TO the report
that Mayor Coffmans vote had been
challenged on election day he said he
could not understand how such re-
port had gained currency. "If the
judges had seen me during the cele-
bration last night they might have
thought I was kid and cut me out
on that account he explained.

Those automobile owners who are
waiting for the repeal Of the ordinance

find themselves brought up into po
lice court on November 16 and forced
to pay fine for driving without such

before the date it will have to be done
at the regular session tonight, which
is not probable, although Mayor Coff.

ascertain whether or not drivers are

the law became effective will be re-
funded. In the meantime, however,

New York, Nov. g., (3:45 p. m.)-The

New York. Nov. 9.-Wilson at ten
o'clock advanced five votes in his race
for a majority in the electoral college
when, at $3.50 o'clock, the returns from
North Dakota we're so far completed
as to establish the fact that he had
carried the state. Previously North
Dakota had been one Of the shifting
commonwealths, first inclining to
Hughes and then to Wilson.
With North Dakota in the list the
president, according to United Press
Ireturns, n5w has 256 electoral votes
and needs ten more to insure election
Hughes has 24s. requiring 20, with
thirtytwo doubtful distributed among
California, Minnesota, New Mexico
and New Hampshire.
The drift in these at 10 o'clock was
summarized as follows:
CALIFORNIA-5,472 precincts give
Wilson lead Of 1896. An error in re
porting Mendocino county having cast
nearly $4,000 votes being corrected in
this total.
NEW MEXICO-9S6 out Of 6sS pre-

New York, Nov 9.-WiIson made
sweeping gains in California today as
the vote progressed. Inasmuch as
Hughes, apparently, must have Cali
fornia if he is to obtain a majority
the situation is regarded with intense
interest.
At noon Hughes still maintained the
lead in Minnesota, the second of the
doubtful states. which he must carry
if he receives the necessary 266.
The California jump came in a sin
gle hour At the start Wilson was
leading but the Democrats were jubi
liant over the returns from San Diego
county on the border where Hughes
expected to show his greatest strength
This gave the Republicans a plurality
of only 2O5.

of 500 which was unchanged at noon
