EXPECTED TO MEET WITH
GOVERNOR ON ii. {. OF l.

oklahoma City, Aug. 7.-Great inter
est is being manifested in the confer
ence of county attorneys of the state.
called by Governor Robertson at the
capitol Friday. Many replies to his tel.
egram summoning the county attorneys
have been received and it is probable
that every county will be represented
The governor has requested the coun-

evidence as they may be able to pro
cure relating TO profiteering or storing
food, contrary to law, in their counties.
The mode of procedure will be deter
mined as the conference progresses.
An examination of the Lever law un-

proposed in Washington that Presids Mt

MAYOR Of ARDMORE
AFF|RMS CITY WATER
SUPPLY HEALT I'll

At "A recent meeting of the board OF
city commissioners the question of Ard
more's water supply was under discus
sion, and some criticism was advanced
as to impurities said to exist as sus.
pended insolubles therein.
Upon this occasion the mayor took
the floor and for "A few moments told
the commissioners and visitors present
what he knew Of the water situation
and what he had always found TO be
true after every analysis had been
made.
The mayor said in part:
1T is funny TO me that someone Is
always discovering "A mares nest in
our city water supply; there Is always
advice being given gratuitously ana If
some of it were followed out the city
water supply would be in mess sure
enough.
I'VE are constantly reminded by some
one, that all fishing at the city lake
should cease, as so many people visiting
there had a tendency to contaminate
the waters.
"Well, ! have had the water of the
city lake analysed since my term of of
flee began, and 7 am informed that it
has been done frequently in the past.
| am also aware of the fact that every
report gave us a clean bill of health
and showed that Ardmore's water sup
ply was absolutely pure and free from
contamination. There may be times
between these analyses when there
might be impurities in the water, but it
has never been discovered, and so far
as ! am concerned there will be no
radical legislation to keep Ardmore tax
payers off the city watershed until |
am convinced that such action is nee
cssary."
The mayor further reviewed the water
situation and said that he could see
no cause for alarm. that proper steps
were being taken to safeguard the
health of the city and a diligent watch
would be maintained at all times TO see
that every ordinance covering the water
supply and watershed was obeyed to
the letter.

Ex-Fresident Theodore Roosevelt,
whose popularity and feats of cour-
age made him the foremost Ameri-
can citizen of the cay, was born in
New York October 81, 1853.
Mr.. Roosevelt was of Holland
stock, the earliest member Of his
family being Claes Maartenzoon Won
Roosevelt, settling in New York
nearly 300 years ago. From Claes
Won Roosevelt the can grew and
prospered. They were farmers, ship
builders and owners, and merchants
of note.
Mr.. Roosevelt's father, himself an
other Theodore, vas a retired mer-
chant, wealthy and able to bring his
son up in surroundings MOI often ac-
corded future great men. His moth
er was Martha Hulloch, Georg an,
Of whom it is said that she was sur
passingly fit to shape the early des-
TIMES of her children.
Undersized Child
The early years of EUosevelt's life
were those of weak, sickly child.
He was understood and white and 1T
one time his family travelled with hi n
as far as Egypt in search Of health.
Because Of his physical condition his
parents sought to inculcate in him a
love of outdoor life, and they sue
ceeded so well that young Theodore,
at the age Of IL, set his heart upon
being a naturalist. This ambition
led him to the fields and woods and
regenerated his physical being to
such an extent that when he entered
Harvard in 1876 he was a robust
young man.
BY reason of his fathers wealth
every advantage was accorded Roose-
welt during his college career. He
was welcomed by the most select
clubs, moved in the best society,
maintained his own riding horses AID
lived in comfortable, almost Iuxur-
ious quarters.
