as heretofore stated, at one time the
guiding spirit of The Ardmoreite,
and as such again told the people of
the outside world all about the ad-
vantages which Ardmore has-the ad'
yantages which are peculiar to this
section of Oklahoma.
Why he sees fit, now that he is
no longer a citizen of Ardmore, to
permit slurs and inuendos against
this city-his former home--to appear
in the editorial columns of his paper,
we know not, nor do we care. But,
if Mr.. Spaulding as a former citizen
Of Ardmore, a present citizen Of
Shawnee, is willing to have his form
or home Knocked" may he not,
the same for that city? And may he
not, should he again leave Oklahoma,
he found melting out TO this peerless
state and her peerless people the same
sort Of propaganda?
The little slurs and slams against
this city and her people, as these
slurs and slams appear from time
to time in the editorial columns of
the Shawnee News, do not hurt Ard.
mere nor Ardmore people. On the
contrary they are like the boomer
ang-liable to come back and smite
the one who threw them.
AS far as Mr.. Harreld and his can
didacy for the United States senate,
as the Republican nominee, Is COLI
cerned. we know Mr.. Harreld person
ally and, while we are opposed to
him politically and shall use every
honorable means to thwart the realiza-
ton of his political ambitions, and
encompass his defeat, We know him
TO be a perfect gentleman who has
many personal friends in Ardmore
and who is proud to let the world
know that for years and years he

In a thrilling diamond battle at

acknowledging defeat. Out of 70
games which the colored players
from Canada have played in, but five
have been defeats. Yesterday svlctoIy

CLUB HEARS
OF SO. AMERICA
Henry J. Fuller Addresses a
Large Audience at X. P.
Hall Thursday Night

Members of the Commercial Club
and their guests to the number of $50
met in Pythian hall Thursday evening
and listened to a most informing ad-
dress upon South America by Henry
J. Fuller of New York, president Of
E. & I. Fairbanks & Co. Mr.. Fuller
was most cordially greeted by all and
before the meeting closed was made
an honorary member of the organiza-
ton.
In the absence of the president, Ed
gar X. Brown, Vice. President Hazcn
presided and at the brief business
session these members were elected:
H. W. Cary, Fred L. Follcnsby, Rev.
Dr. A. P. Grint, Fred G. johnson and
Charles B. Rathbun.
Mr.. Hazen presented MI. Fuller in
a most felicitions manner and the
latter said it was always a pleasure
to come back to St. Johnsbury, and
that he regretted that his short
stops here on business did not per-
nit of the social visits that he always
enjoyed. He then spoke for an hour
in an informal and most entertaining
manner of a trip to South America
which he took in February, 1919. The
Panama canal was the. boats first
stop, and MI. Fuller said in passing
that this was the one example of gov
eminent efficiency in the country. The
first South American country he vi
sited was Peru where it rained only
sonce in five or six years and where
the machine shop he visited was right
outdoors and the machines all in
good order At Callao he saw two car
loads of Fairbanks scales and also
witnessed 4 revolution and a change
OF government.
The leading bankers and progress
sivc farmers of the country were TIA
lians or of Italian ancestry, the Spa
niards being too proud to work. The
business in all the South American
cities was conducted bv the Italians,
the English, the Germans and some
times by the Americans. At Valpa
raiso in Chile Mr. Fuller described
llic disadvantages Vi IOIelSH eN-
change and said that until recently
Chile had been receiving nearly
$200,000,000 in export duties of their
valuable nitrates. This country pos
sesses two of the largest copper
mines in the world, the Cerra de Pas
co and the Braden mines, and Mr..
Fuller described his visit to the latter
mines where fairbanks scales were
used and 10000 men were employed.
He said the trip across the Andez
was disappointing and inferior to the
Canadian Rockies or those of the
United States, butt hat the ride
across the Argentina pampas to Beu-
nos Aires was wonderful trip. To his
great surprise husked corn was used
as fuel all alone the railroad as it was
impossible to get coal for fuel. Buenos

FairbrOther Proves Puzzle
to Visiting Team In
Exciting Contest

Ncwport's fast Sunset League
again came through to a victory yes
terday when they bested Richford by
nine inning contest on Gaines Trot-
ting Park. The game was called at
$40 p. M, with a fair sized crowd in
the stands, and it was "hum-dinger"
Of a contest in every way. The play
in the field brought forth but few er-
rors, and three double Mays were
made, two by Richford and one by
Newport, while at the bat, Newport
easily led their opponents and used
up two pitchers.
The visitors failed to solve Fair
brother and even the passionate
cheering and coaching of Coach Pond
on first base could not rattle him.
Newport had new player on sec
ond, Morrill,, who banged out three
hits out of four times at bat, and hit
a liner into double play the first
time up. His hitting brought in
three runs, and his fielding was very
satisfactory lMcCarten of Newport
was also a strong addition to the
team, since he batted for 1000 and
fielded his position clcvcrly at first
base.
Harvey, Richford's leading mounds
man, sought to terrify the batsmen
with a red necktie and Kelley green
sweater, but his left handed growers
were exactly to the liking of many
batsmen and in the fifth, James, a
younger man, replaced him, and held
Newport to two more runs. A col

More than so "hunger strikers

Sholtlv before 3 o'clock the men tore
out the electric light connections
leaving the building in darkness.
Breaking out of their cells they set
up shouting that could be heard for
a block. A riot call brought po-
