did in the most admirable manner,
The evening was one of unalloyed
pleasure. and before leaving, Mrs
Garland, in behalf OF the class, pre-.
sented Judge Worley with a fine auto
clock, which was only small token
of the class appreciation for the de-
cade in which they have been taught
by the Judge, and as he had watched
over their spiritual welfare, they told
him. the clock could measure the
time for him while he and his wife
are away on their extended trip tC

SOME TRUE FIGURES

Here are some figures that are ap-
proximately correct ana which are
very interesting TO every citizen Of
Carter county.
The Healdton field is producing
about 10000 barrels Of oil day. This
oil sells at $275 barrel which gives
u daily income from that field Of
So, 500.
The Hewitt field is producing APP
proximately $4,000 barrels of oil that
sells at $3.50 barrel This field
gives a daily income of sS7,500
These two fields give total in
come to Carter county of $4,000 a
day counting Sundays and holidays
and all alike.
One per cent OF this $4,000 which
is sl,700 a day goes to the road fund
OF Carter county.
One per cent of the same amount
or sl.7OO day goes to the schools
Of Carter county.
The state receives one per cent Of
the value of all the Oil produced in
the state and as result of this gross
production tax on oil the state will

Without any taxation whatever the
county commissioners will have s622,-
220 to spend ON roads alone. The
statutes provide that this money shall
be spent in building permanent high
ways This vast stream of revenue
gives the commissioners an oppor-
tunity to build lasting monuments
10 their administrations. This money

Editorial
of the Day
"BRIBED NEWSPAPERS"

Uawton Constitution, Democraticl
The utility owned paper openly
charges" that the democratic press OF
Oklahoma has been bribed to support
Scott Ferris. That is covering some
considerable territory. There are
something like 253 democratic news
papers in Oklahoma. or this 25J
democratic newspapers, 252 are sup
porting Scott Ferris unequivocably TO
the limit If Scott Ferris were buying
the support of the newspapers with
money, which he is not, il does
not look Reasonable to the average
citizen that every single democratic
newspaper in the state, with one ex-
ception, could be bought.
1t IS just as reasonable 10 assert
that every minister, every doctor or
every other business or professional
nan or institution, could be bought. 1t
is possible that the owner of the
utility organ believes that it is pos
sible to buy all of these. q
An affidavit from Rube Geers about
attempts to buy the support of his lit
tie paper over at Tishomingo is hardly
becoming. Rube has been bought and
paid for by Senator Gore. For com
paratively insignificant appointment
as census supervisor, Rube would be-
tray the people of Oklahoma by elect
ing Gore to the senate.
The democratic newspapers Of Ok
lahoma are squarely behind Scott Fer.
ris for the United States senate, be-
cause they know he will be true 10 his
country and to his constituents. as
Senator Gore has not been. They know
people of Oklahoma in the senate.
Scott Ferris does not represent
merely himself or a small group o,
socialists, draft-dodgers and conscien-
tious objectors, as did Senator Gore,
prior to and during the war. They
know Scott Ferris represents Ameri-
canism as opposed to un-Americanism.
He has proven his honesty, integrity
and ability during the twelve years he
has been in congress. During the
same lIlIlt III lut stlidlt NOit Hos
proven himself the opposite. These are
the reasons the press Of Oklahoma is
for Scott Ferris.
Not once during this whole cam
paign has the supporters of Senator
Gore been able to find one flaw in the
record Of Scott Ferris and back it up
with the record. They make state
ments, they imply many things, and in
many cases deliberately lie, but not
once have they ever backed up their
statements, declarations, and screams
with one single bit of irrefutable
proof. They have nothing on which 10
base campaign against Scott Ferris
or for Gore. Words, mere meaning
less words, most of which were epi-
thets. have made up the campaign
waged locally by Senator Gore.
No, the newspapers of Oklahoma did
not sell out TO agents of the kaiser
during the war, and it Is not reason
able to suppose that they will after
wards. All the money in the world
couldn't buy the support from the
press of Oklahoma that Scott Ferris
is getting.

MORAL MEN FOR PUBLIC
OFFICE

The doctrine of @good men only, in
private personal morality for public
Offices" Is a maxim which every voter
ought to honor in casting his ballot
for candidates for such offices. The
fact that there are no special objec-
tions to these candidates founded on
their public or official action, is no
answer to objections based on their
private character A man who is
known to be licentious, or dishonest,
or untruthful and utterly unreliable
in his words, is at heart a bad man
in the sense that he is governed no.
where by sound principle. If he will
cheat in u private matter, he will
equally cheat in public matter when
ever he deems it to be to his inter-
est to do so. Such a man cannot
with safety be trusted. What one
really is, in his ordinary private con-
duct, is the best test of his real char
acter; and If he is thus shown to be
bad man. that ought to oe the end
of all his hopes for public office The
people cannot afford to honor such
n man with the powers of office;
and if they have right consciences
they will not do so. By following this
rule they Will purify the politics of
the country, elevate the tone Of gen
eral morality and teach office seek
ers and all public men that personal
morality is cardinal qualification
for public service.-Exchange

LETTER TO THE PEOPLE

Whose daughter is safe when men

age Of is years, by offering them
transportation, hotel bills and ten cents
each dance. and take four girls from
the city to Purcell to dance for them
at public dance hall or under a
tent. commonly known as 'i9
show?"
This was done last Friday, July 2,
and the mother of one of the girls
knew nothing of the whereabouts or
her daughter until she returned from
Purcell on the Santa Fe train, ar
riving here at 4:2l Sunday morning
Another time a man came here
bringing a prostitute with him from
Denver, Colo, and stopping at a
hotel or roomlng house on West
Grand avenue, put an advertisement
in a city paper for girls to go with
a show, offering to pay them s25 per
week. He, with three other men, got
two young girls to leave here with
them. The mother of one Of these
girls came to my office and reported
the matter TO me, and through the
aid of Mr. Fate Sanders, who was
then acting as probation officer, we
succeeded in locating these men with
the girls at Sparks, Okla. where
they put on a show Thursday night.
The mother of one of these girls
went after her, they had, however, left
Sparks, but were found in Prague,
where they were scheduled to pull
off show Saturday night. AS soon
as ! learned that they We're at
Prague, got the deputy sheriff there
over the phone and requested him to
arrest the four men. Which he did,
and locked them up, took the mat
ter up with Mr.. Selby, who was then
county judge, and we found that there
is no law on our statutes under which
we could prosecute these men, unless
we could prove that they and the
girls had occupied the same room to-
gether. This we could not prove, and
the result was that the men were
turned loose,
Is there remedy to relieve this fear
full condition? Yes. to considerable
extent, and IL the good people of Ok
lahoma will give me their support,
will get what is known as a contribu-
tory delinquency law passed by the
next legislature which will give all
in saving the juveniles of our state
from going to shame and ruin.
