EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY

Occasionally big men play the part
of small children, says the Ponoa City
News. Looking up Kansas way, we
see William Allen White making faces
because he was told that he couldn't
post certain placard in his window.
A little further up state we see Gov
Henry Allen declaring that he will see
according to his interpretations.
The whole affair has served to de-
tract attention from an important is
sue 10 trivial one. The Kansas in
dustrial court is an experiment. It
holds that the public is more interested
in keeping an essential industry going
than either the workers or the employ
ers. Therefore. both sides TO a contro.
versy have beAn invited to come before
the court Of adjustment of their diff.
culties.
Now it is probable that there are
phases OF the industrial court law that
are not working well. 1t may be that
some of its provisions are harmful 10
one side or the other. But certainly
the basis is correct, that the public is
the party vltally interested and that
strikes should be avoided II possible
The little by-play is not helping either
the court or the strikers. II should
be discontinued just as soon as the two
men get II out OF their systems.-

TROLLEY POLES

Editor Ardmoreite:
AS the street car tracks are being
torE up in the north part of town Is
there any reason why the trolley poles
cannot be removed from Main street?
The principal street OF Ardmore to-
day looks like the main thoroughfare OF
good sized country village with NOV
ing picture posters, pictures of candl-
dates for election and every other con.
ceivable form of advertising nailed on
these trolley and electric light poles
and adorned as they are, they are any.
thing but attractive to a progressive
city such as we claim to be- There is
an ordinance with q penalty attached
for the placing of advertising on any
trolley, electric light or telephone pole
in the city but this ordinance is not
inforced and how long are we to con-
tinue being simply a country town.

OWEN AND GORE

10 what lengths the Wilson men
are going in their belated efforts
to check the swing OF sentimer, -
IT. 'sc Owen, is Happily exemplified
in the assertion r,ade by Mr.. W.
A. Ledbetter in his address here
last night.
He claimed that a vote for uGge
Owen was a vote against the poll
cies Of WOODROW Wilson, because
Owen supported Gore in the 1920
campaign. Perhaps Mr.. Ledbcttef
I'D not know that Judge Owen
an ardent supporter of Wood
TOW Wilson, that he spent SIX
months in Woodrow Wilson's
headquarters during the expires
ident's last campaign and that lie
spent days in campaigning in the
various war drives.
Judge Owen did just that. He
stayed by Gore, not because he be-
lieved in certain OF Cores war
policies, but because they had been
PERSONAL friends for years and be-
cause Gore appealed as friend
ior him to stay with him in Tie
crucial campaign of his career.
Judge Owen deserves commenda-
ton for sticking by friend in that
case, not censure. and certainly not
misconstruction OF his motives and
principles.
