In many places only the Republi-

being mentioned. In an extra tonight,

ton the vote on governor except q
few scattering returns on the scua-
torial contest. There is probably no
doubt about the election of Senator
Gore, though his vote is greatly re-
duCed, according to returns. While
the Republicans are claiming okla
hcma county for Fields by twenty-five
hundred, Chairman Samuels of the
Democratic campaign committee con-
ceded that Williams had lost the
count5 by one thousand votes
At 10 O'Clock tonight returns from
over the state are sufficient to indi-
cate the election Of John Fields, Re
publican, over Robert l.. Williams,
Democrat, 10y a majority ranging from
ten thousand to twenty thousand. Very
conservative estimates place the ma
iority some lower than this, but that
Fields has received more votes than
his Democratic opponent is undoubt-
edly the case.
Democratic headquarters up to 10
o'clock had received very few returns,
mostly from Democratic strongholds
in southern border counties. Even in
these counties heavy Democratic losses
occurred, while the Socialists showed
heavy gains, indicating that while the
Democrats refused to support VIII
liams, they did not vote the Republi-
can ticket, but preferred to join the
Socialists. Democratic headquarters
are unusually silent tonight for an
oklahoma election. Very few returns
are being received there and the cam
paign managers refused to flash any
returns on the screen. Crowds flockod
to the Republican headquarters and
Democrats and all went there to get
the only information ohtainable
Later returns at Republican head
quarters are that Fields will carry
Okfuskee county and not only that but
that the whole county ticket there will
be elected. Three precincts in Clcve-
land county give Fields 1865 and VIII

LEST WE FORGET

AS we eagerly scan the bulletin
boards, or the newspapers, for news
from the bloody battlefield Of Europe,
and read Of hundreds Of thousands of
men and boys being killed or wounded,
Of art centers and priceless cities be-
ing annihilated forever, let us not for
get that IL was stupid, stubborn oppo-
sition TO all-beneficient, humane. en-
nobling Socialism that made the pres
ent horrible abbatoir possible.
More deplorable yet, most Of the
youths and men who have been hurled
in wlnrows on the crlmsoned earth by
screachng shot and bursting shell
have deliberately voted for the very
capitalist system that inevitably
brought them to their agonizlng deaths
in fratricidal strife.
And why did they not vote for So
cialism, and join in the ranks of the
Reds who oppose war and robbery,
poverty and ignorance, folly and wick
edness in all its forms?
Why did these thousands of young
men-fathers, sons, brothers, lovers
oppose the only political party in the
world that aims to do away with the
conditions, and the vicious ideals, that
make war inevitable?
Ignorance.
There you have 1t in one word. Add
to this one word stupidity" If you
will. But ignorance was by far the
predominant factor in bringing on this
all but universal catastrophe to the
human race. Let us not forget this as
we grow excited over the war news.
And let us not forget that we have
an urgent duty at this very moment:
the duty Of helping to remove this
dangerous ignorance from our very
midst; right here at home. It is just
as dangerous and combustible here in
Washington as it is in Germany, Aus
tria, or elsewhere.
The Socialist press was powerful
factor, III Europe, IN aVertlng war on
several occasions during the past de-
cade. Given a little more time and it
would have been largely instrumental
in preventing the present awful con-
flagration.
1t can do as much for America if
given the earnest support of the know
ing ones
Are you doing ALL that you can for

It's your most valuable ally as an
educator brother, sister, mother.
All, more than all MOTHER! For,
after all, it is the wife and mother

"The dead hand clasped a letter."
Here in this leafy place, quiet he lies,
Cold, with his sightless eyes turned to
the skies;
IT'S but another dead, all you say is
Carry his body hence-kings must
have slaves;
Kings climb to eminence over mems
graves.
SO this mans eye is dim; throw the
earth over him.
What was the white you touched,
there at his side?
Paper in his hand and clutched tight
ere he died;
Message or wish, may be-smooth out
the folds and see.
Hardly the worst of us here could
have smiled
Only the tremulous words of child
Prattle, that had for stops just few
ruddy drops.
Look; she is sad, to miss, morning and
night,
dead father's-kiss; tries to
be bright.
Good to mamma, and sweet-That is
all, Marguerite"
All, if beside the dead slumbered the

All, if the hearts that bled slept with
the slain!
If the grief died! But no-Death will

ABOUT FEEDING AMERICA
AND STARVING EUROPE.

When the matter was first brought
forward by the national executive
committee relating to a Socialist party
demand on the president and congress
for Immediate legislation prohibiting
the export Of food stuffs to foreign
nations (heIliserent nations only would
not serve the end in view. the editor
Of this paper looked upon the sugges-
ton as rather utopian, spectacular
rather than practicable
Further consideration of the plan,
however, has led him to change OF
opinion. For it comes to about this,
adopt the plan suggested or fold hands
and take it out in commenting on the
horrors of war.
We Socialists pride ourselves upon
being practicable. And we are. We
we're not so utopian as they of CAPT
talist persuasion who believed the
present profit-mongering, plunderbund
system could continue without a
worldwide catastrophe. And we're
not so impracticable as to believe that
the war will terminate without leaving
monarchies and republican grating
machines behind, along with the rest
of the debris
BUT. In the meantime, many of
the industries of the U. S. will be
closed down; thousands upon thou
sands of men. women and (sad to say)
children will be thrown upon the world
jobless, penniless, homeless, starving,
freezing to death. MILLIONS OF
THEM
Now then: what will the U. S. gov
eminent do for these millions of citi-
zens who are denied the right to earn
a living?
VIII it call upon congress to appro-
pirate s50,00O,OO0 to set them up in
farming on some of the millions of
acres of unused land in this vast coun-
try? VIII it lease them sufficient i'm
plements, stock, seed, etc, to begin
creating two blades of grass where
one grew before?"
Will "our" government loan money
to its common citizens who created
the nations colossal wealth of s135.-
0O0, 0OO,0 900?
