TOXIC, Aug. 2l.-Japan is ready TO
strike Germany. Only complete back
down by the Kaiser can prevent -hostil-
titles at Kiau-chau. The ultimatum eX-
pires ON Sunday. That Germany will
consent TO turn her territory over to
Japan. or even TO China, and TO disman-
tie her warslips in the Orient is consid-
cred very unlikely SO certain are the
Japanese officials that the decision at
Berlin viii be for war that a heet is
ready waiting nea- the Shantung PENN
sula for wireless orders. Troops are
also on transports, but the government
prohibits amy information as to their
location on their number.
Japanese officials believe the Ger
man warships in the East will at
tempt TO do as much damage as pos
sible to the japanese feet at long
range while remaining under the pro-
lection of the German land forts as
much as possible There is no dis
position on the part of the japanese
officials to minimize the task ahead.
The Kiau-chau forts are modern and
they are equipped with magnificent
artillery the latest product of the
big Krupp factories. Foresceing the
war and the possible Japanese COM

it was apparent that the administration

Rendered Unconscious
In Motor Accident

Alvin Keil, 623 South Fourth, who
was injured Saturday night in a motor
cycle accident, is reported much better
and though still confined to his bed,
his condition is very much improved
over yesterday and Sunday, when it
was practically impossible to tell the
exact extent of his injuries.
Saturday night Mr. Keil was "joy
riding on his machine and was car
rying his wife as a passenger on the
tank When at end Of the paving on
Minnesota avenue, MIR. Keil was turn
ing to return to the city when the ma
chine collided with man on horse
back, throwing the motorcyclists to
the pavement.
Mr.. Keil was rendered unconscious,
presumably from the contact of his
head with the pavement, in addition
to which he received many bruises
about The arms and body. Mrs. Keil
was severely bruised on the arms and
body. but not seriously.
Though unconscious of what was
happening. as was afterward learned
from his statement. he arose from The
grsand, started the machine, allowed
his wife to climb on and was prepar-
ing TO start hack to town when . ply.
sician stopped him. He was taken to
his home and was unconscious until 2
o'clock Sunday morning. He states
that he does not remember any incl
dent from the time of his fall unit
Sunday morning, though his converse
tion was almost perpetual during tina
time. His recovery is expected with
in few days. The accident Saturda,
night was the second time within ;
few weeks that he has been the vic
/ tim of injuries from his machine.

RETURNS
TO COME
SLO WHY

Owing to the number Of tickets in
the field, the large list of candidates
and the manner in which the names
are arranged on the ballots. the returns
from the election will come very slow
ly tonight. Walter Griffin, secretary
of the election board, thinks it hardly
likely that complete returns will be re-
ceived from any county precincts be
fore midnight and it will likely be late
before the counting in the city is fin
ished.
The Daily Express has requested
election officials all over the county
&c report by telephone at the earliest
possible moment and the bulletins win
be announced at this office On ae-
count of the demand made upon our
telephone by this long distance service
we shall ask our city friends to use
our phone as little as possible.
The Express has also arranged for
telegraph bulletin service from the
state at large, to begin about $50, and
these bulletins will also be announced
but not displayed by stereopticon, as
usual
Owing to the Herculean task Of
counting the ballots, made doubly so
by the extraordinary number of candi-
dates, the counters were proceeding
slowly this afternoon and the outlook
was that nothing definite would be
known until late tonight The poll is
fairly heavy and though much inter
est and quantities OF strenuous work
have been in evidence throughout the
day withal the election is quiet SO
far, there having been practically no
sign of the proverbial election fight
or other demonstrations at the polling
places.
The vote is strong and it is predict
ed that before the polls close an ex
ceedingly heavy ballot, according tC
the registration, will be recorded

SOCIALISTS
WILL OPEN
CAMPAIGN

Just because the primary campaign
is over probably you thought that the
curtain on the political show would
ring down and that the stage would be
dark for spell. But if you cherished
any such hope as this, be assured now
that it was a mere delusion. 1t is
true that the various companies that
have been playing daily and nightly to
large houses have abandoned the
footlights but that does not signify
that the public will lack political en-
tertainment.
The next big attraction will be Of
fered by the Socialists, who will open
their campaign in Grady county with
big rally in Chickasfis next Saturday,
August 8. That it will be jam-up
good show is amply evidenced by the
stellar attractions that have been Sc
cured. First of all comes the great
head-liner, Eugene v. Debs, standard
bearer of his party in several presi-
dental campaigns and recognized as
probably the ablest advocate Of the
Socialist cause in America. In addi.
tion to Mr.. Debs will be Fred w. Holt,
Pat Nagle. who is the Socialist candi-
date for United States senator, H. M
! Sinclair and others. The candidates
of all political parties have been in
vited to participate in the speech
making. Local Socialists are prepar
ing for a great day and anticipate an
immense crowd.
