SOCIALISTS Will NOT
VOTE NEXT TUESDAY
TULSA LOCAL DECIDES on
"HANDS OFF, POLICY
IN ELECTION.

The socialist local of Tulsa has pass
ed a resolution to the eject that IL will
take no part in the coming city cleo
tion. In other words the vote that
tied up the last election, and neces-
STATED the holding of second cleo
tion on four candidates. will not be
cast at the polls next Tuesday. This
means that the republicans and demo-
Gratis will have to fight It out with
their respective strength. The repub-
licans had majority over the demo-
Gratis In the past election. Consequent
ly the decision Of the socialists works
to the benefit of the republicans. The
socialists of the city have a paid
membership of over 250 at the present
time. and the resolution they havo
adopted. while not necessarily mean.
ing that none of the members will votn
next Tuesday. does signify that not
over dozen or 50 socialists votes will
be cast.
Since last Sunday forty-fiv new
members have been taken into tho
socialist local. and the members OF
the party here feel that they will only
hinder their opportunities in the fall
election by taking any part In the
city election next Tuesday.

this spring by the Il 'cls, The

Here are some of those "thns C.
appearing in the Democrat:
Returns from Tulsa piebald cleo
ton Of last Tuesday are coming in
from the black district which are won
derfully responsive to anything that
looks like concession or invitation or
a breaking down of barriers prelim-
mary to social equality. Tulsa ap-
pears now TO be in danger of losing
its prestige as being the whtest town
in Oklahoma.
Moving in Of three families Of
blacks from Muskogee and the re-
ported intention of others to move in
shows how quickly the poison spreads
Sapulpa, too, has heard the call, and
scouts of the bootlegger and gamblers
are now here and looking over the
field. They were encouraged by the
election to hope that the breaking
up Of the green pastures in Sapulpa,
the most llwless town in oklahoma
for the last few years. will result in
gaining a foothold in much larger
and richer town.
Does Tulsa wish a double invasion

prostitutes and smart alecs in gem

ers and villagers have taken to higher
land and live stock has been driven
out Of the danger zone.
State officials are anticipating suf-
fering that would follow a breaking
OF the levee, on account of shortness
of provisions and clothing.
The possibility Of life loss is re-
mote. If the break were to occur,
the great territory in the worlds
greatest cotton country would be
flooded.
All that water which escaped from
the river above Memphis today which
will have to flow through the north
ern part of Arkansas will eventually
come back to the Mississippi river
through the ST. Francis river.
The trend of the flood-tide took
a more hopeful view of the situation
tonight.
The river is falling in the upper
stretches and Is gradually rising be-
low This tremendous volume Of
water must drain into the gulf and
every hour that the crisis in the lower
river Is delayed, in just that ratio Is
increased the chance Of man to win.

GREER WILL MAKE his HOME IN

Veteran OkIahbmn hditor, However,
Declares lie WIN Have No More
of the Newspaper Game.

Frank Greer, the veteran republican
newspaper publisher In Oklahoma,
who has been in Tulsa the past few
days, has decided 10 make this city his
future home. Just what business no
vii lenter, he has not yet decided but
he stated last night, very emphatlcally
thst he would not again enter the
newspaper game
Mr.. Greer has a state wide rcputa
ton. He recently sold his farm jour
nal In Guthrie, to Arthur Capper thus
breaking the last string that tied him
to the publishing business. For many
years he was the editor OF the Guthrie
State Capital. the leading republican
newspaper In the state, n position
which is gained chiefly through the
efforts OF Mr. Greer and his strong
pen.
over year ago he sold the state
Capital, which then passed out of eN-
istence. being consolidated with the
Guthrie Leader. As a politician, MI
Greer always stood for the decent
things, waging a bitter fight against
the methods of Ex-Governor Haskell.

more scandalous abuse of federal pa
tronage has ever been seen than we
have seen here in the last two
months" said Colonel Roosevelt in re-
ferring to the government service in
speech here tonight.
Colonel Roosevelt charged that the
national Taft bureau was making an
effort to debauch the forest service
and said it was impossible that the
bureau could be acting without the
cordial support and approval of the
administration" He also asserted that
in Kentucky, postmasters, according
to advices which had reached him
from Edward O'Rear, former chief
justice of the Kentuck court of ap-
peals, has been engaged in the low
