LEDBETTER FOR U. S. SENATOR


UNITED STATES SENATOR ROBERT l.. OWEN
is presumed to be strongly ntrenched in office
The senior Senator from Oklahoma has always been
d very popular candidate and the assertion made by
W. \. Ledbetter of Oklahoma City that he will cross
swords with him in the summer OF 1924 will be read
with much interest by the people who are interested
in Oklahoma politics
As a lawyer Judge Lcdbetter stands with the men
who head the profession in this state. AS Demo
crat it can be said that he has stood on the firing
line since the first little convention was held in Nc
Alcster when no rights accorded Indian Terri
tory 1t a few men like Lcdbeter that thuudcred
away at the party to get representation in the Demo
cratic National Convention. 1t was men ike Led
better who fought the way TO statehood for Okla
homa. 1t was men like Lcdbctter who wrote the
most progressive state constitution in America and
then fought to maintain it in the federal courts
when it attacked by the national administration.
lie has asked Tor few fayors at the hand OF his
party and then only when he was eager to serve.
For quarter of century he has been close stu
dent of state and national affairs This state never
produced harder fighter than Lcdbetter. 1t belongs
to the blood of the family.
On the other hand Robert L. Owen is rich and
powerful he is blood and bone OF this state Indian
blood through his veins he is cultured
scholar, he is student OF world finance and OF the
an honor to his state and to his party SO strongly
enrenched is he in his official position that only by
tremendous fight he be replaced and it is
doubtful if he can be replaced unless he makes some
bad bunder between now and the primary election
in the summer OF 1874
1t is but natural that Judge Ledbetter will receive
encouragement from this section OF the state. He
moved to this city in his youth he achieved success
in our midst local democracy always sat at his feet
for instruction, his leadership here always ac-
.cepted The best friends he has here. They
are among the men with whom he labored in build
ing the foundation for this commonwealth His
ability as a lawyer is reflected in the charter OF this
city as well as in the constitution of the state He
has never asked for office that paid fees com
mensurate with his service, he has sought to serve
and has served with marked ability
There is a tendency to give men long tenure in
Congress and in the Senate and this will be in favor
OF Senator Owen should fight be staged between
these two men. But if Oklahoma should desire to
make change in its senatorial representation no
better man could be found than Judge W. A. Led

THE SACRIFICE OF HONOR

IF the report is true that Warren c. Spurgin OF
Chicago, is a suicide in this state, it furnishes but
one lesson that the wages OF sin is death
Spurgin was the president OF banking institution
he was surrounded by friends he had stood high
socially he built up demands for more money than
he could and he misused the money of other
people, he took from them what they could replace
hut he robbed himself OF that which he cannot by
any means replace to himself
He robbed himself OF his honor he DESTROYED his
own happiness and cOntentment
Few out with determined view to rob
others They make small beginning with the in
tentcn OF paving back. The temptation grows and
they overcome. Men render themselves servants
OF money and they overcome OF the love OF it..
Men in many hundreds of other lines OF work
yield to one evil and the evil grows and they yield
time after another until they become hardened
TO vice and they lost. They arrive at point in
their lives when they do not know right from wrong
The who is taking his first dollar wrongfully
the man who is taking his first steps in wrong doing
has abundant lessons to put him back in the right
road but few of them observe these lessons until it
is TOO late Tor reform, too late to make good and
the wreck they give their own lives is the worst
wreck they create.
Spurgin evidently thought money would produce
happiness. He sacrificed everything else for money
The manner in which he obtained DESTROYED any
pleasure that might come OF its possession 1t mat
tiers not what attainments u has when he has
sacrificed honor he has sacrificed all he has Should
he be brave enough to try to start again in life he
cannot surmount the obstacles that are in his way
No place OF responsibility awaits him. no friend can
be found by him who will trust, he seeks to hide
his lace from all men who have ever known him. an
outlaw OF mercy, sympathy and friendlineSs he tries
TO track the wilderness only TO be by his
own remorse OF conscience and he looks to death
as handing out to him the only mode OF escape

Much Suffering Caused by
Waste Products in the Blood
What Science Knows About the Matter and How Il I.
Best Treated

The blood is more important than
any Of the organs. 1t is thru the
blood that the whole human body is
directly or indirectly nourished. The
blood gets its nourishment from the
intestines. The intestines also con-
tain waste products undigested
foods, acids, gases and refuse, which
sometimes get in the blood.
When waste products get in the
blood, nature will strive to cast them
out. IL your resistance is strong
enough, nature will probably succeed.
But if you are 'below par" weak,
rundown, and nervous, nature will
begin to show signs Of distress.
As a result, you will have that
feeling of fatigue. You will lack the
energy you need for the days duties
and pleasure. Minor ailments will
begin to affect you-pimples, black
heads, and boils.
If the waste products are not gotten
out Of the blood~at this point, it is
possible n more serious skin eruption
or disease will begin to show itself.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 25.-The De.
