LAST SESSION WAS
DAMPENED BY RAIN
Cbautauqua Ended last Night With
Concert by Tennessee Jubilee Sing
ers, Despite the Rain.

The close Of the Chautauqua last
night was unfortunately considerably
marred by a hard thunder shower
The tent was crowded, despite the
threatening weather, for the concert
of the Tennessee Jubilee singers and
the closing exercises of the Chautau-
qua but as the clouds grew blacker
and blacker, and then the rain began
to fall, the audience began leaving
the tent and those who remained un~
til the close Of the concert were too
busy dodging the streams Of rain that
poured through the leaks in the can
vas roof to listen to any closing exer-
cises.
The concert was most excellent, and
was thoroughly enjoyed despite the
handicap against which the singers
had to contend. The first part Of the
program was devoted to old plantat-
ion songs, and these were loudly ap-
plauded. The singers entered hearth
ly into the spirit of the songs, and
their voices blendedmos harmonious
ly.
Ia the second part the music was
more pretentious, but none the less
enjoyable Turner the bass, in part
icular has magnificent voice, perhaps
the best naturally that has been heard
here during the Chautauqua. The
tenor, Perkins, has a melodious voice
also, and his wife a very good contral-
to. In fact, the whole party is COM
posed of good musicians, and their

ORATORY FLOWS AT
WEST CABIN PICNIC
Democrats Failed to Show Up But the
Socialists Gave the Republicans a
Run for Their Money.

on one continent disputing the
changes said by his own party to have
come over him since the defeat of his
cherished ideas have proven to have
been the salvation of the commercial
prosperity Of the nation.
"He will be found with the party
Of progress, the party that has car
ried the flag half across the world and
planted it upon firm foundation in
spite of the powers from without and
the protests from the party that will
and now does bid for his support.
"The Democratic party has no in
terest whatever in a market in which
to sell and satisfies itself wholly in Its
attempt to reduce the price at which
a thing can be bought. This nation is
a nation of producers and every in
dividual who is producer is more in
terested in a high market in which to
sell what he has to dispose of than he
is in a low market in which to buy.
1t is always more difficult to find mar
ket than it is to find a seller. The
producer produces more than he con-
sunes and the balance in his favor is
always greater where all markets are
higher. The result a tariff for pro-
lection has is two-fold; it creates a
market at home and at the same time
produces the revenue to run the
government. The result Of tariff for
revenue only-the Democratic tariff
is to afford no protection and to afford
insufficient revenue.
''The Democratic and Republican
parties are both patriotic the Demo-
cratic party loves the government and
hopes for its future Development; the
Republican party hopes for the same
and promises to continue the present
prosperity. The only difference be-
tween the two great parties is the
means ito be employed in reaching the
same end. The Republican party has
no quarrel with the Democratic par
ty Tor being in history, but it has alb
no use for the means en-
ployed by the Democratic party. The
Democratic party is party Of mega
tion. 1t is always against any princi-
pie of government employed by the
Republican party. The Republican
party being on the ground first has
selected and put in operation all the
very best principles of selr-govern-
ment, and has enacted all the active
laws existing today, and
the Democratic party is placed at the
disadvantage Of having to reject the
best principles of government in or
der to avoid coincidence with the Re-
publican policies and Republican

The annual picnic Of the West
Cabin AntisfIorse Thief association
was held in the beautiful blackjack
grove near West Cabin school house
Wednesday and Thursday, July lS and
10, and as usual was success. The
attendance was quite large, especially
on the second day.
J. w. Wall of Parsons, national
president Of the ASSOCIATION, was pres
ent the first day and delivered an ad-
dress appropriate to the occasion, and
IN addition there were base ball
games and horse races, the latter
winding up with two or three fstic
encounters.
The afternoon Of the second day
was set apart for political speeches,
two Republicans and two Democrats
having been invited to speak from
their respective political standpoints.
Unfortunately the Democrats failed
to make connection and the Repub-
licans were left to wallow in their
own glory, and Messrs. Probasco and
Rogers made the best Of the situa-
tion. Their oratory is still echoing
up and down the hlllsides and dales
III that vicinity.
1t certainly looked as though the
Republicans had full swing, but
about the time that particular brand
of political enthusiasm was climbing
upwards, the Socialists appeared
rtpon the scene and insisted upon a
division Of time. Finally one Of their
speakers, Frank P. O'Hare, was
0ranted 20 minutes to talk Socialism,
which he did. Democrats and Re
publicans alike forgot their partisan
differences and when Mr.. Rogers re-
piled to the remarks made by Mr..
O'Hare the applause was most gem
erous.
Features Of the day previous to the
speaking were the manner in which
Messrs. Heady and South entertained
visitors the dinner spread by them
and the immense amount Of good
things that disappeared when S. E.
Wallen and The Chieftain reporter
gathered around and closed in on the
table. They are both Of the opinion
that 7 S. Heady's good humor comes
from the fact that he is a good feeder,
and that Mrs Heady knows just how
to fix things up.
The first speaker in the afternoon
Of the second day was e. NJ. Probasco,
who said in part:
"There is no excuse for partisan
prejudice or sectional strife to be in-
jected into the politics Of Oklahoma.
.This is a new state composed Of the
peoples Of all states who meet upon
the common ground Of the greatest
good with the highest ideals for the
new state.
1T is infinitely more important
that the citizen Of the new state be
Of the best, than that he be Of any
Iparticular political belief If he come
here without a political prejudice and
enters upon his duty here as citizen,
he will naturally affiliate with the
party presenting the best principles
