like and altogether beautiful weddings
that has occurcd in this city, was that

At the appointed time before a house
full of relatives and friends, the Bride
and croorn with Miss Maud Blair
as Bridesmaid and D. W. Martin as
groomsman marched into the parlor
to the beautiful strains of Lohengrin
wedding march played by Miss Bryan
Howard. The wedding ceremony pro
nounced by Rev. '.. T. Orr of the
l'resbyterrian church, was one of the
most impressive and beautiful ever
heard in this city. The Bride beau-
tifuly costumed, looked her best and
caused jpany tears to be shed among
her friends when they understood
that she would so soon be going away.
Miss Roma has always been one of
our prettiest and good homey girls
and every one most sincerely regrets
that from this on her home will be in
another city. She is a good musician
both vocal and insttimental and will
be greatly missed at her home. The
Groom, Mr.D.ivid Dobyns is a splen
did young man, coming to the front
in the business world and can well
congratulate himself on the helpmate
he has selected. After the wedding a
splendid lunch was served. The fol
lowing guests were present: Rev. and

SCATTERED ITEMS.
The recent fine rains have put the
meadows, pastures, oats and wheat
growing In good earnest, but it is
doubtful if so much rain at this time is
very good for wheat and corn, however
it has put new life in everything and
everybody.
The people are talking very earn
estly of having tlje court house ring
investigated. We think it a good
plan for there does certainly seem to
be a real big "nigger" 'kivered" up
under somebody's hat. Let the peo
ple see what their hirelings are doing.
The servant should not bo above his
master. Honest men fear no harm
from a thorough investigation. ( 'tit
er counties have made money by
getting acquainted with their seivnnts
and their business. Let Morgan try
investigation.
Ben Comer and family, of Ver
sailles, visited and fished near Enid

Miss Maude Brown visited Ethel

Mr. W. R. Stevenson makes his
announcement in this week's Repub
licak for re-election tor the office of
county surveyor. While Mr. Steven
son has had this office for a little
more than one term, he has really
had it only one term as he filled out
an unexpired term at first. He has
been giving good satisfaction and U
now much better qualified to fill the
office than when he first took it. He
has had to buy a lot of expensive in
struments and books in order to do
the work that has to be done
and feels that he should be con
sidered for another term. He is a
good man, straightforward and hon
est and we believe the voters of the
county will stand by him for ic-clec
tion,
