spectvely, they demonstrated TO the
general citizenship OF Ardmore that
they are big men, men of broad minds,
men OF unselfish instincts, men who
are willing To go their limit in order
;hat Ardmore may take It's place
with the cities of the great south
west.
Each of these men has been sue
cessful in business, each has built
up for himself an enviable record
as a man of progress, as man
whose efforts and energies and hon
est endeavors have been crowned with
the laurel wreath of success.
Whether the general public. the
men and women who will east their
votes at the recall election for these
men, votes which will evidence their
appreciation. as citizens of Ardmore,
of what they are willing to do for
Ardmore, remains to be seen.
While unfortunately it has ever
been too truthfully said of every COM
munity, speaking of its forward march
ing people, that a prophet is with
out honor in his own country, yet we
believe, we sincerely hope and trust
that the result of the pending elec-
ton will prove the exception and
not follow the rule. We believe, and
hope and trust, that the people of
the manner in which the affairs of
the public have been administered in
the past, and who realize the pos
sibilities which are in store for the
ty under a proper and careful busi-
u IS administration, will vote for
these men because they are successes
men who weigh carefully all matters
which have confronted them, because
they have always reasoned from cause
/ to effect, never going off at half
cock, never investing in any business
or enterprise which has not been
sound enough to bear the Xrays of a
thorough investigation and because,
being such men,-shrewd, careful,
honorable and publc-spirited - they
will work for Ardmore from sun to
sun, day in and day out, from week
to week. from month to month. from
year to year, if necessary, until this
municipality shall be pulled out OF
the ditch, taken from the depths Of

seated conviction that the recall Of
the mayor of Ardmore and the COM

taken toward the final great develop

Without attempting forecast of
the result of the pending election,
The Ardmoreite feels that it can point
with pride to the local legionnaires as
the ones to whom the honor is due
for getting this matter before the
chance to vote upon the issue and
in event the recall carries, for winning
out over all sorts, manner and kinds
of obstacles and barriers,
Without attempting forecast of
the result Of the recall election The
Ardmoreite believes that the hat of
every man in this city should be
DOTTED TO the workers in the local
post, that the smiles Of every woman
who believes that the voice of the
people constitutes the supreme law,
should be bestowed upon the boys

FOR THE GOOD OF THE ORDER

1t takes u brave man, a conscien-
tious man, a man worthy Of conf
dence, to deliberately step into a
breach and offer himself as sacri-
flee upon the altar of the welfare
of his city.
1t takes a man worthy of the utmost
confidence and trust to set aside
his personal business and offer him
self and his services to his neigh
bors and fellow-townsmen
1t takes man who is imbued
with the highest sense of right and
justice to lay aside all selfish inter-
ests and devote his time to pulling
his community out of financial dis
tress and innocuous dissuetude with
out hope of pecuniary reward or re-
Enumeration for himself as an indi
vidual.
But it takes men Of such broad
minded caliber TO develop communi-
ties, to make states. to build nations
Ii takes men of such Willingness to
sacrifice personal gain in the interest
of the advancement Of the community
as whole to build cities and open
up and expand local conditions and
turn villages into towns, towns into

Editorial
of the Day
POOR WILSON
(F'rom the st. Louis Post-Dispatch)
Poor Wilson!

(From the st. Louis Post-DiSpatch)
Poor Wilson!
The thought rises impulsively when
one reads the f,ippant, malicious, abus-
i've and misleading statements of
such men as Senator Spencer and
Arthur Hyde, republican candidate
for governor. concerning him and his
work in trying to bring about just
peace and TO construct an organiza-
tion of nations to promote justice and
peace in international relations.
Admitting all OF President Wilson's
faults and mistakes, certain great
and benefcent things he did; certain
other great and beneficent things he
tried to do above the plane of ethics
and thought; beyond the full COM
prehension Of the mass of his con-
temporaries and against the selfish
aims of powerful material interests.
Under his leadership we helped to
win a great war for democracy against
military Imperialism; we achieved an
unequalled record in war preparation
and effort. He lifted our war aims
above mere victory and its material
and defined our war effort as su-
preme task in the service OF human
ity, justice, peace and progress. He
put 1t on the plane OF a war against
injustice, against imperial conquest,
and selfish aggression-a war against
war. After the war, he tried to
realize the cherished dream Of man
kind by putting into concrete, work.
able form a league of people to sub
stitute justice for aggression, reason
for the sword, arbitration for selfish
alliances and to codhy and enforce
international law and the square deal.
Every civilized nation except his own
nation and our late enemies has ac-
cepted the league as the hope of the
world for peace
Nevertheless, he offended hidden but
cherished Imperialism; he offended
ambitious national aims; he offended
selfish interests; he offended PARTISAN
ship. The storm of criticism, opposi-
ton, partisan malice, hatred and
abuse broke upon his head. All the
| good he has done, all that he had
striven for was forgotten or ignored.
The pack yelped at his heels--the big
dogs, the little dogs, the fox terriers,
the flee dogs and the poodles snarled
and barked. Although he himself is
broken in heart and body from the
superhuman task, the hunt goes on
with added zest because the quarry
is wounded and is unable to fight.
What boots 1t TO big partisan lead
er or the little partison pack-the
thousands of political yappers and
spoils seekers-what Wilson has done
or tried to do-what his task and its
real import to mankind was? Partisan
ends demand his undoing. and the
turning Of the minds of the people
against him. No motive is too small
no purpose too mean to be attributed
to him, and no Misrepresentation
of his work is too vile for use to
confuse the public mind and mislead
the ignorant. Selfishness ignorance
and falsehood are enthroned as gods
for the worship of the people
So we say, Poor Wilson! And II
the American people stand for this
gross injustice to and malicious abuse
Of the man who has done so much and
striven for SO much Of inestimable
value to the world, we add, Poor
America.
