Ardmore owes a duty to the teach

is being overlooked, duty which
it is a disgrace to longer fail in dis
charging.
Ardmore teachers are possibly the
worst the poorest paid Of any skill
ed workers in the city. After years
and years of ceaseess study and
toll; after years and years Of end

Of Missouri know that tho man who
represents the democracy of that
state, must stand for the Wilsonian
principles; they know that it is /
duty which the party owes itself. a
duty which every public servant,
elected by the democratic party owes

The republican editors OF Oklaho-

are following. They are telling the

Of Oklahoma's democracy, and at

Captain BisDoe, the man who will
seek the republican nomination for
