SOME REAL WORK AHEAD

The Ardmore Chamber of Commerce
has been re-organized and promises
to do something worth while for the
community.
With the personnel Of the director.
ate and the officers, coming from
the local business world and being
well informed upon local needs and
conditions, it is safe to forecast the
successful carrying out of all prom
ises which the new commercial body
has made, or will make
Ardmore has many natural advan-
tages and offers home for many
new industries and enterprises. The
Chamber of Commerce can secure
all these for the city. The Chamber
Of Commerce, working Systematically
can build up Ardmore to the point Of
commercial strength it should reach,
and in doing this it will, automati-
cally, build up the surrounding coun-
try and neighboring towns.
There is no reason why Ardmore,
within the next five years, or even
less, should not develop into a city
OF fully $4,000 population. 1t is al
ready the largest city in southern
Oklahoma, and it should well become
the third city in the state.
The Chamber Of Commerce can
make Ardmore such a city. 1t can
make it the commercial center Of the
large territory which is contributory
to its business interests and institu-
tons
But the Chamber OF Commerce, as
an organization, as simple unit to
do this must have the hearty sup
port and the impartial and unselfish
assistance of every individual mem
ber.

and the Chamber Of Commerce. Us an
organization, will do its part by Ard
more.

A GOOD EXAMPLE

Dallas wanted an electric railway
built TO connect her business interests
with those Of Wichita Falls.
The citizens Of Dallas, the business
men Of Dallas saw the needs Of such
a road, realized the Importance Of a
connecting link between their city
and the oil center of north Texas,
and they got busy with the PROPOSE
ton.
The matter was submitted to the
railway people and a bonus. or de-
post, if you like that term better of
$1,000, 600 was demanded.
Committees We're appointed to take
the matter up with the individual
members of the business world Of
Dallas, and, after two or three days
work the committee reported that the
fun sum required had been raised
by popular subscription.
Ardmore and ArGmore's business
interests demand a rail connection
with the new oil fields in the Duncan
and Comanche sections.
AS l. now is, one has to ride all
the way from Ardmore to Oklahoma
City, one hundred miles. and then
travel back another hundred to reach
a destination which is only 40 miles
to the westward Of the starting point
A short line built to fill in the
20-mile gap between Ringing and
Waurika would bridge the present
difficulty and shorten an eight hours
ride into a journey of only two hours,
while the line, electrified, built from
Ardmore's present street car termi-
nus direct through to Waurika, or
Duncan. would be to Ardmore just
as much as the line from Dallas to

NEWS OR YELLOW JOURNALISM

The editor is popularity sup
posed to see everything, hear
everything, know everything and
publish everything that is going
cr. But sometimes he doesn't
see it-doesnt want to see it.
because. being an editor and train
ed 10 weigh all angles Of every
question, he knows that it is bet
ter for the community if he does
not see it. There are many things
the editor does not publish be-
cause they contain no element Of
news, are distressing to many in
nocent people, and their publ
cation could serve no good pur-
pose. Sometimes the editor is
criticised for his forbearance but
AT least some Of his critics do not
stop to remember that possibly
the paper is just as forbearing
regarding an incident or two Of
their own lives. There are many
Things to be considered before put
ting it in cold type.-Texarkana,
Ark, Texarkanian.
There are several mouthsful Of hon.
est, high-minded thought in the fore
going extract from the Texarkanian S
editorial.
Yellow journalism possibly pays in
the larger cities, in the matter of
dollars and cents, but yellow journal.
i'm, in city or country, never has
paid and never will pay moral divi-
dends.
The editor who is a conscientious,
upright, honor.loving man would as
soon stoop to talking behind his neigh
bor's back as to malign that neigh
Dor through publishing, as news, any
of the secret histories which sleep
with the family skeleton, in the dark
closets
We are free to acknowledge that
this is a sordid world with many
sordid-minded people helping to make
up its population. The sordid-min1ed
element loves to read of scandals and
takes delight in dwelling upon the
stories OF shame which may be
brought to light against their erst-
while friends and neighbors.
But the world is not all bad and
the thinking element, the substantial
element, the element Of its citizenry
who make up the rank aui file Of the
vast army Of those VINO do things,
constitute the element which read
the newspapers for the real news, not
for the scandals.
Ard before one too severely cen.
sures the editor who has eyes, yet
fails to see little happenings which
publicity would turn into tragedies,
It might be well for him to commune
with the true sentiments of his inner
most heart apd see if its dictates do
not prompt him, as 4 manly man,
TO blind his own eyes to some Of the
fraities Of humankind which acci-
dentaly come to his knowledge,
Homes have been wrecked, men
have been killed, the fair name of
womanhood has been besmirched
through the publication, by some con.
scienceless editor Of yellow stor.
les, the suppression Of which would
have left the world better morally,
more pure and Christ-like.
The editor Of q newspaper, to do
his real duty toward society, while
he need not be a professed Christian,
must be man who is broad-gauged
enough to shut his eyes when common
sense and humanity demands; who
must be strong enough and manly

He testified that he had not been in McQuillan's place over two minutes and that hethad- taken no drinks in there. Doyle claimed that when he first saw the chief he and Nor iarty were sitting on a wall fronting the Sayles property on Main street and went from there to McQuillan's place via Val ley street and Mansfield avenue. Twenty five minutes later he was placed under arrest and he could not see how he could have become intoxicated in that short time
 Moriarty claimed he had suffered from toothache Saturday night, thus ex- plaining his tired look. His eyes were reddened from his work at the Windham Silk Company. He claimed that he did not mean to break the Jamaica ginger bottle but it had fallen from his pocket while he was reaching for a cigarette. He was also sober, he claimed.
 Chief Killourey again took the stand and testified that when the arrest was made Doyle admitted that he had taken one drink and that Moriarty's mother had claimed he had come home drunk Saturday night after being released on bail. Prosecuting Attorney Samuel B. Harvey recommended that the case be continued to Saturday but this was un- necessary as Doyle and Moriarty expert enced a change of heart and entered pleas of guilty. Each paid a fine of ten dollars and, costs, amounting to s17.15. Mccarthy and Donohue paid the same amount, $17.15. They were taken in Sunday night after : o'clock under the influence of jakey

They had come into this city Saturday night and had evidently sold some of the goods they had brought with them but after paying their hotel bill and spending money for other things they were unable to pay the penalty of two dollars and costs imposed upon them and they were taken to Brooklyn jail later in the day to work out their fines
 The case that created the greatest amount of interest was that of Joseph Moriarty, Patrick Doyle, Justin McCar- thy. and James Donohue each charged with intoXication. Pleas of not guilty were entered by thes first two named and the last two entered pleas of guilty Chief Killourey testified that he and Of ficar Eombria had arrested Moriarty and Boyle Sunday morning after watching them come out of the store run by Ar thur McQuillan on West Main street.
