Wednesday was the 18th birthday of the
city Of LaWton, as we are reminded by the
Lawton News which points with pardonable
pride to the growth OF the community from
nothing to something. The editor Of this paper
arrived in Lawton at dusk Of the day preceding
the birth of the new city and pitched his tent
with thousands of pioneers already there.
About the same day arrived young man from
Mississippi, named Gore. Mr.. Gore now IS IN
the United States senate, and on account Of the
excessive heat in Washington his fellow
pioneer has concluded to withdraw from the
race against him for another term.

The fellow who complained the day before
Yesterday that the weather was hot, when the
thermometer attained only 100 degrees IN the
shade is believed to have melted down into
innocuous axle grease yesterday when the local
weather expert announced 106 degrees. If
this rise in temperature, which seems to be
mounting like the h. c. l., continues many days
longer the weather will be really hot.

There remains wonderment that the president
should have gone 80 long without himself asking
for this; that he should not have called some
member OF his cabinet TO his hedsldc--his secrc-

action OF Friday unnecessary. That. however,
can be attributed TO the we'll known Wilson
