CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES

souri, is not an exception, and such
condition exists generally, the
problem of the high cost of farmers
products will be pretty well answered
in the final census returns of the
entire country. For it would seem
logical to presume that increasing
the per capita of city dweller and
decreasing the per capita of rural
life would result in great increase
OF consumption with a still greater
decrease of production. - Yours

uREY wooDsoN TAKES A HAND.

lUREY WOODSON TAKES A HAND.
II we can put faith in the atti-
tude of the Tennessee Democratic
press, as, at least, indicating the
sentiment of the people of their re-
spective communities, on the ground
that a party organ could III afford
to desert the party name without
the sanction OF the members of its
party, Bob Taylor stands little show
outside Memphis: and even there
the News-Scimitar gave direction to
the sentiment against Patterson and
Pattersonism so clearly before its
conversion, that IL can not hope to
undo IL all before the eighth OF
November.
! In Nashville not a Democratic
paper is supporting Taylor, while
both the Banner and the Tonnes
sean, which absorbed the American.
are openly supporting Hooper. At
Columbia, Jackson and GAINESVILLE
the Democratic papers are support
ing Hooper, and in Chattanooga the
News (Democratic) is supporting
Hooper, while the refusal of the
Times to support the Patterson judi
cial ticket, and the noncommittal
attitude of Senator Frazier, are
initiating against Taylor's success.
Quotations from their editorials.
published by the Evening Sun two
days after Taylor's nomination,
show that a majority of the infiuen-
tial press of the state, outside Mem
phis. whose influence like that of
Louisville operates with the reverse
English, favors Hooper's candidacy.
Urey Woodson, of Owensboro.
secretary OF the National Democratic
committee, has added that touch to
the delicate situation, which we pre-
dicted would be added by some one,
to make the disruption in the party
permanent. Woodson advised Pat
terson's state committee, which
called the convention that nomi-
mated Taylor, to name a new ma
tional committeeman in the stead
of the national committee, who pre-
sided over the Democratic conven-
ton, which endorsed Hooper and
nominated Enloe.
The situation offered a dilemma;
and the choice of sides is dictated
by the view one takes of politics.
The Patterson committee was chosen
under rules, which practically dis
franchised a majority OF the MEM
harc af IL
Tennessee. so far as a voice in party
affairs was concerned. The voters
revolted, and less than 1900 of
them participated in the primary,
which nominated Patterson and his
judiciary ticket. Independent can
didates were nominated and defeat
ed the Patterson ticket by upward
of 10000 majority. Then this same
independent organization, which had
proven at the August election that
II could command the support of
the majority of the Democratic
party proceeded in convention of
delegates, selected by a majority of
the Democrats of Tennessee, to en-
dorse Hooper for governor and to
name a new state committee to sue
coed that. which had just been re-
pudiated by majority of the party
in the only way they had OF OK
pressing their disapprobation. This
convention was presided over by the
Democratic national committeeman
from Tennessee. Clearly the num-
bers of voters, who supported the
independent judiciary ticket and in
the caucuses chose delegates TO this
convention, and the endorsement Of

words between Hon. r. Y. Thompson
Of Oklahoma City and Hon III. #.

different views on state capital loca

Col. Tom Dwyer refereed the bout
and introduced first Judge Thompson
who occupied an hour with the pre-

Of he question. Mr.. Smith followed
for Shawnee. speaking an aour ami
fifteen minutes, and Judge Thompson
uged about ten minutes more at The
close
Tho speakers treated each other
with extreme courtesy ami there were
no personal thrusts in the debate.
sphila tle crowd was a good natured
one, dealing out applause impartIally
as either speaker scored.
Oklahoma City Is the center cf at
tack from three sources, said Judge
Thompson Campbell Russell is op-
posed to the pending bill because he
has d New Jerusalem bill already
signed by sufficient number OF sign
ers and will get an election II The
present bill fails. Second, Shawnee is
opposed to the terms Of the present
bill, and, third. Guthrie. The greater

the sixth bill passed by the First leg.
islature located the capital at Okla

it. Again a bill was pissed locating
it at Kingfsher and again came the
executive veto. Guthrie had obtained
and held the capital by fraud all t',ese
years and all this time the question
was constantly coming up, obstructing
legislation and costing the taxpayers
thousands OF dollars every year.
Judge Thompson referred to the fact
that Pottawatomie county represen-

SITUATION

Washington, June THE agree
ment between President Taft and
twenty-five mid-western railroads to
postpone action on the proposed in
creased rates put new light on the
situation today in the house.
The senate railroad bill is worded
so that it couldn't become effective for
sixty days from passage. At least
twenty-five insurgents, according to
Nelson Of Wisconsin, are ready to vote
for the acceptance Of the senate bill
rather than to trust it to the hands Of
a conference committee Democrats,
It is believed, viii favor its passage.
