CANDIDATE FOR LEGISLATURE.
Office Has Attracted Attention Of
One Of Our Strongest LAWYERS.

One of Our Strongest Lawyers.
Many Ardmore and Garter county
people will be glad to learn that sam
NJ. Davis has finally decided to make
the race for the legislature from Car
ter county. A number of friends of
Mr. Davis have been at him for sew
eral weeks to induce him to allow his
name to be used as a candidate, and
upon giving his consent they have
authorized The Ardmoreite to an
nounce his candidacy.
Mr.. Davis is native of Texas. He
represented the eastern portion of
the state in the Texas legislature for
a period of four years. He has been
active in politics in that state for a
number of years, prior to his removal
here in March of 1911. His old home
in Texas was at st. Augustine, and
he moved from there to Brownsville
two years before leaving for Oklaho-
ma. He went to Brownsville to take
charge of vast amount of new liti.
CATION which was made necessary
owing to certain conditions that eX-
listed in the construction and opening
to traffic of the St. Louis, Browns
vile and Mexico railroad.
Mr.. Davis has engaged in many
political battle in Texas when the
democracy was threatened by the
independents who sought to line up
the Mexican and negro votes of the
southern portion of Texas. He is
lawyer by profession, and as force
full speaker he was always in demand.
Sam Davis possesses every quality
necessary to represent Carter county
in a very creditable manner. He en-
tered the practice of law in 1891 and
is ripe in experience and at the same
time he is youthful enough to have
retained all the energy and enthu5l-
asm of youth. He is alert and active,
he is skilled in the line Of work he
offers to do for Carter county and
his friends are of the opinion that
he will not have any opposition. This
county is entitled to two members IN
the legislature, and Mr.. Hoover, VINO
announced some weeks ago, is not
being opposed by Mr.. Davis, but they
might be said to be running for sep
arate offices.

.BAND|TRY IS
POPULAR CANT:
IN NAZTECLhND
CAREER OF LIEUT.. ANTEVlDEO,
YOUNG VILLA TROOPER, WHO
is DESERTED BY "ARMY" A
TYPICAL ONE.

Field Headquarters, May 20, by
Motor Truck to Columbus, n. NJ,
May 27.-Lieutenant Antevideo. who
\eserted the de facto main army Il
week ago with fifteen troopers to
become a bandit, tonight is being
hunted by both Carranza and Villa
forces alike. When last seen his
army" was missing and he was rid
ing alone toward the hills.
The career of Lieutenant Antevid-
go is typical of many adventure
some young MeXicans and is an in
stance of the rapidity with which
banditry is increasing in vogue in
fthe sections of Mexico now occupied
by the inactive American forces un-
der General Pershing. Anteyideo's
activities as leader of mounted rai9-
ers came to an end, at least tempo
rarily, last Saturday night when he
was attacked by band of alleged
Villa sympathizers. Two of Antevid-
eos remaining five men were killed
and the other three escaped by Il
daring night ride. Since that time
the young officer has gone his way
alone.
The expeditionary forces have
been comparatively quiet pending the
outcome of the conferences between
Washington and Carranza and this

has furnished opportunity to the vic
ious elements to ride the hills by day
and the towns by night with some
impunity. Just how strong or how
extensive the ay-by-night banditry
may become is not yet known. An
teyideo started out a week ago with
fifteen men of the command of Col
onel Iominguez, carrying orders to
procure corn and nursing grudge
at a reprimand from superior of
flcer. When safely out Of camp, he
made a speech to his men to the
following effect:
"Why should we remain soldiers
when by moving into the mountains
we can become bandits, travelling
when we like and where we wish,
eating always of the best and taking
our pick of wives-a wife in every
valley if we so desire?"
There was more of the same order
of persuasion to catch the fancy of in
cipent young bandits. Eight or ten
of Antevideo's followers adopted the
bandit career with their lieutenant.
Their first expedition was to lure
three girls to accompany them. After
few days camping in the mountain
food ran out, whereupon all except
five of the leutenants men stole out
of camp after dark, abandoning ban
ditry.
With his handful of followers, An
teyideo searched in vain for habita-
tions so poorly guarded that he could
raid them with safety. Thereupon
he conceived and executed an idea
which in its daring seemed to stamp
him as possessing the qualifications
OF real leadership. With his follow
ers he rode boldly into an American
camp where he was known and where
news of his detection, as he had eX-
pected. had not been received. Here
the lieutenant presented himself as
an ally. He was welcomed with ra-
tions and a note of introduction to
the next American camp along the
line. Elated, he tried his daring
scheme upon the next camp, but this
was his undoing. In the first place..
it gave his followers too great
liking for good American rations,
which dampened their desire to fight
the gringoes." Furthermore, it made
him an object of suspicion among
the real Villistas From the second
American camp two nights ago he
rode with his men to the little ranch
of Delicos to attend a dance. This
party was enlivened with much mes
cal, raw, potent cactus drink. In
the midst of the dance a party OF
real Villistas, or so they called them
selves, rode up to the ranch. When
their thirst for adventure had been
satisfied two of Antevideo's men were
dead and the other three were re-
ported far away, headed for the
quickest way into civilized life.
The last seen of Antevideo was
today when an employe of an Amer
lean ranch near here saw him riding
alone and asked:
"Where is your army, my general?'

McC Combs Sends Message to
Colby---PIatform to Suit
the Progressives.

st. Louis, June 16.-Chairman Nc
Combs, sent the following telegram
to cambridge Colby, the progressive
leader Of New York, in reply to a
statement Of Mr.. Colby suggesting
that the progressives should go slow
ly in determining their future course
and to do every justice to President
Wilson in their consideration.
81 have seen your statement. Col.
Roosevelt appears to have sent his
former and enthusiastic followers
stumbling to destruction. The pro-
gressive democrats cordially and sim
cerely offer them safety"
Regarding the plan preached by
some leaders to send an invitation to
the progressives to join the democrats
or make specific platform overtures
to them, Secretary Baker said:
"The progressives are group Of
men who are earnestly and devotedly
trying to serve set of deeply rooted
political beliefs. They don't want a
piece of engraved stationery which
they can call an invitation, but evil
dence that the democrats and pro-
gressives are trying to serve the same
cause.
"The record of the democratic adj
ministration contrasted with the re-
publican platform ought to satisfy any
progressive that his opportunity lies
with the democratic party.
There could not be any direct in
vitation to the progressives in the
democratic platform. We can only
hope to get progressive support by
drawing a platform so that it will
meet with their approval. | think
that great many progressives will
feel deeply disappointed with the
meaningless republican platform and
outraged at the betrayal of their own
party. They will realize that the
democratic platform will more nearly
represent their own ideals and they
will vote for President Wilson"

White Slavery and War.

Gust before this war we were
working ourselves up about "White
Slavery" says Earle Harrison in the
July Woman's Home Companion.
"The loss of only one pure girl was
given pages of space in the news
papers. But imagine your country
attacked from outside; put half a doz-
en- drunken foreign soldiers in your
house, and the loss of your own
daughter will be such a small incident
that nobody will notice it-except
you"
