LOVE PASSlON'lN DEcADENCE
AmalIa Gusllemlnetti Starts contro.
versy by Asserting Man Is Mere
Animal, Incapable of Love.


Rome-Amalia Guglieminetti. poet.
ess, novelist and journalist. one of
the most fascinating of Italy's
daughters, has declared boldly tha:
man has lost the power of loving, and
tnat the passion of love is in deca-
dence.
She wants to revive the age OF min
strelsy aEidsMchiyalry, when lovesick
poets thought Heshing Of sacrificing
life to their ideal, and when knights
fought for their dulcineas without any
regard to marriage portions or family
expectations.
she says that today love in its
highest sense is practically dead;
that man is little better than mere
animaly that woman on her side does
little to fan the immortal fame, but
thinks more of her frocks and her
freedom. Hence the increase in d.
vorce and the gradual disgust of man
for the married state.
OF course, Signora Guglieminetti's
views do not find general favor, and
have provoked an animated press
controversy. in which her opponents
laugh her views to soorn and pro
nounce her crank.
She has gone to Turin to be the
guest of the Duchess of Aosta, sister
of the Duke of Orleans and Bourbon
princess, who prides herself ON heI
patronage OF the arts.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. 15.-
The cattle market is slowly climbing,
new limits being set in the various
classes almost every day. The last of
the Hendricks cattle were sent in last
week, and they brought the best prices
of any of that string, which has been
in process of marketing for several
weeks past. Middle class oil mill
steers bring $3.50 to $500, one drove
in the quarantine division here today
selling at S6.25, and string in the ma.
tive division, weighing 1852 lbs, sell
ing at $500. Some of the light steers,
under 1000 lbs, sell at $40 to $3.50.
Total receipts of cattle here today are
about normal for Monday, 10000 head,
showing that railroads are in pretty
good shape. Everything in the native
division, as well as in the quarantine
division, sold strong to 10 higher,
Stockers and feeders do not find much
call during this extreme weather. but
the demand is up to the supply, and
prices remain steady, stockers $4OO to
$3.50, feeders $500 to s5.75, a few fancy
feeders at s5.S5 to s6.S5. Veal calves
are higher, best at 1926. It appears
that most feeders are trying to get their
cattle on the market this month. which
may point to some bare spots in Feb
ruary and March. If that is true, it
might pay to hold some cattle back. in
spite of high cost of feed.
Hogs arrived freely last week. and
were warmly welcomed by packers,

In answer to this statement republi
cans will declare that the population
of the country has increased enormous

population of the country at the close
of the Buchanan administration was
81 ,443,32l. The population in 1909-10
had increased to 9O.OOO,OOO in round
numbers. The average annual expense

total cost of government for the year

should forever silence the puny charge
of extravaganza brought by the repub-

A large, clean pen has been seide

expected that numerous requests will

are finding their way to the Oklahoma
City stock yards. From a commercial
standpoint, their value is not nearly
so much as it is from the view point
of the swine raiser, yet many farmers
have felt compelled to sell on account
of scarcity of feed In other portions
of the state, there are many farmers
who have more or less corn, kaffir or
other feed, who would be glad to get
young pigs or piggy sows, if they could
be secured reasonably.
Knowing that it would be a bad
thing for the state if these animals
were simply slaughtered. instead of
being kept to increase the production
later on, Mr.. Ikard conceived the plan
of having pen set aside at the Ma

When the animals have been de
clared free from disease, they may be
shipped out in cars or wagons that
have been cleaned and disinfected, so
that they should reach the buyer in

quarter ending January !, the amount
of money in the depositors guaranty

out to depositors sS5.52O.97 There was
collected from state banks assessments
amounting to s1OS,O7S.2O, while s4,-
S27.37 was realized from the assets of

ment in the depositors guaranty fund
will not be palatable news to the rapid
partisans throughout the country who
hope to see the law discredited.

The state corporation commission de-
serves the lasting credit Of our citizens
for the splendid fight they have made
against the appointment Of Judge Hook
to succeed Justice Harlan on the SUI
preme bench. Hook has long ago
shown himself to be the paid agent OF
corporations. He has never rendered
one decision in favor Of the common
people. He has absolutely no SYM
pathy for those who toll Always the
puppet and plaything Of monopoly his
complacent docility appeals to the cor
poration creature who sits in the White
House by grace of the corporations of
the country. In opposing his selection
and elevation the corporation commits
sion of Oklahoma has demonstrated
that it is the friend of the plain peo-
pie and can be depended upon to fight
the battles of the right. The people
of Oklahoma will not soon forget them.
When the sixtieth congress assem-
bled President Roosevelt declared in
his regular message that the one vital
question that confronted congress was
the question Of economy, AS concern
ing economy congress proceeded to
make the following record.
First Session.
New offices created, 1924; salaries
for new officers. slS. 6,376.5O; salaries
for new officers (offices and salaries
not specihed), s2.s4S,SS76s; salaries
increased, s9,146,575.2O; officials sal
aries reduced, 2; amount of reduction,
s420.
Second Session.
New offices created, 1920; salaries
for new officers, $11 ,176,S9960; salary
for new officers (offices and salaries
not specifiedl $2,41S,S5S; salaries in
creased, s11S.S6S.2O officials salaries
reduced, IS; amount of reduction
s6,6SO.
What do our Oklahoma republicans
think of this record? What do they
think of this chapter of republican
economy? what do they think of q
republican president, who after preach
ing economy, signed bills increasing
the cost of government in the one item
of salaries alone to the amount of $780,
563,577SS?

superintendent. OF schools of Imperial

A LOST CHRIST IS THE
SUBJECT OF EVANGELIST
Interest in Union Revival Meetings
Continues to Grow and Monday
Night Attendance Was Large

The smallness of the Monday night
audience is the evangeliSts' bugabOO,
but the congregation last evening in
the large church auditorium at Fifth
and State streets violated tradition.
The chorus platform showed scarcely
a vacant chair, and the music was
most inspiring.
Evangelist Browns theme was a
startling one, "A Lost Christ" text
being furnished by the simple nara
tive of the return of the holy family
from Jerusalem toward their Nazareth
home, o familiar story of the boy
Jesus, who, tarrying in the temple,
was wholly lost to His parents, they
trudging complacently on supposing
Him to be with them.
"The Christ child was lost to His
family because the family lost touch
with Him, and throughout the day
found no occasion to talk with Him.
Have you seen Jesus today and have
you talked to Him? The ones who
lost Him long ago were those from
whom He would seem least likely
to become separated. 1t was His own
mother who wandered unconsciously
away from Him.
Where did His mother lose Him?
Not in the house of pleasure; not in
the place of unholy bartering, for
Christ goes not there to be lost, but
she lost Him in the very house Of
God. What we call religious service
may actually crowd the Master Him.
self out of our lives.
Do not by any chance lessen your
activities because of fear of losing
Him, but see to it that you do your
work in His strength and not in your
own. Take time to worship as well
as to work.
