lished because the parties referred to
are both old Boone county men. and
well known to many of our older
people:
Il know you" said D. E. MooreTand
as he looked A. A. Moss sQuarely in
the fact and made careful survey Of
every feature. 1T has been almost "A
years since we met but | remember
you distinctly" said Mooreland. Mr..
Moss stood puzzled. The incident
by which the men had become known
had impressed itself not so vEvidly
upon his memory.
Mr.. Mooreland, who is an inmate Of
the state Confederate home and who
came here from Locust Grove, Mayes
County, Oklahoma, told an interesting
story Of having become acquainted
with Moss in the fall Of 1872. That
was the year that a vast number of
immigrants came into Texas. It was
the year that gave the Lone Star state
start in adding percentage to its
population, which habit it has kept up
very well hy drawing upon every 9th
er state in the union. In that year,
A. A. Moss, who lives at Mammoth
View, Oklahoma, and who is here Wis
iting with his son,in.law, Emmet r..
Foster, was travelling by wagon from
Boone County Arkansas, to Unionville.
Red River County, Texas. Moss stop
ped at the home Of MOoreland in east
Texas and remained all night The
traveller had in his possession an old
shot sack pretty well filled with gold
coins. The amount of money was
about $l,O0O and all of it was in gold
That was an unusual sum Of money
for men to possess in those days, and
tne man VINO nad as muCn as Sl,UOO
in cash was considered very well to
do. There was a plentiful supply of
all the essentials of life but men
traded in supplies and there was not
much need for actual money Anyway,
it was an early day in Texas, in 1872,
and Mr., Moss did not know just what
might become Of the money if he took
it on his trip so he left it with the
man with whom he had stayed over
night, Mooreand took care OF the
bag Of gold until Moss made his re.
turn trip within about a month. After
that time the men had never seen
each other until they met in Ardmore

after Justice Hughes acceptance hac
been made public, the Progressive
National Convention received the fol.
lowing message:
ITO the Progressive convention:
I am very grateful for the honor
you confer upon me, by nominat-
ing me as President. cannot ac-
cept it at this time. 1 do not
know the attitude of the candidate
of the Republican party toward
the vital questions of the day.
Therefore. if you desire an i'm
mediate decision, must decline
the nomination. But If you prefer
1t I suggest that my conditional
refusal to run be placed in the
hands of the Progressive national
committee. If Mr.. Hughes state
ment when he makes them shall
satisfy tn committee that 1t is
for the interests of the country
that he be elected, they can act ac-
cordingly and treat my refusal as
definitely accepted.
IF they are not satisfied they

Indianapolis, Ind. June 12-Charles
Warren Fairbanks. former Vice-Presi-
dent of the United States, is a native
of Ohio, but came to Indianapolis in
1874. shortly after his marriage to
Miss Cornelia Cole, daughter of Judge
P. r. Cole, of Marysville, Ohio.
Mr.. Fairbanks was born on a farm
near Unionville Center, Union county,
Ohio, in May, 1852, being a son of
Loreston M. and Mary A. (Smith)

Vermont and New York State but who
emigrated to Ohio in the thirties.
The father of Charles w. Fairbanks
was wagonmaker by trade, but later
took to farming. Youth and early
manhood were passed by the future
Vice-President in assisting with the
work on the farm and attending the
district school. Later he entered the
Ohio Wesleyan University at Delaware,
which graduated him in 1872, when he
was 20 years of age. Early in 1874 he
was admitted to the bar.

HUGHES is REGARDED AS STRONG
CANDIDATE BY NATIONS PRESS

The nomination of Hughes has been
we'll received by the newspapers of the
country. His strength as a candidate,
his clean record and the strength of
MS statement in accepting the nomi-
nation figure prominently in the edi-
torials published yesterday through
out the country. Even Democratic
of serious notice.
The comment OF the New York
newspapers is as follows:
The Sun - The Sun accepts with
alacrity the opportunity to support for
President of the United States a man
like Charles Evans Hughes against the
man that Woodrow Wilson has shown
himself to be.
If the substance (of the Hughes
statement) had been promulgated in
advance of the meeting of the two
conventions, we do not see how any
Republican or any Progressive could
have doubted that the candidate of
reunion desired and described by
Colonel Roosevelt had. in fact, been
found.
The WorId-In nominating Justice
Hughes for President the Republican
party has paid to Woodrow Wilson the
highest compliment 1t was capable of
paying him. 1t has selected as it's own
candidate the Republican who in the
popular mind most nearly represents
President Wilson in character, in
ability, in temperament and in ca
pacity for idealistic public service.
The PresS-There will be no more
of the Progressive party. as such, in
this campaign. But there will be a
large and vitally important body of
Roosevelt followers in the Republican
ranks. responding to the patriotic ex-
ample and inspiring appeal of their
great leader that they forget every
partisan consideration, ignore every
personal feeling, in giving to the cause
of Americanism everything that is in
them. And Colonel Roosevelts par
.ticioation assures 81 Republican cam
paign with more life and power in 1t
than perhaps any other man could put
into 1t.
Brooklyn Eagle-with the liability
of Roosevelt ticket eliminated, the
