APPALLING LOSS or LIFE.


It is evident that we are getting only
the most fragmentary reports Of the
gigantic military operations in Eu-
rope. The war correspondent has been
eliminated and the press is forced to
depend upon official announcements
which are meagre enough and often
conceal as much as they disclose. That
the losses even this early in the con
fliot have been appalling is not to be
questioned. although official statistics
are lacking. report which comes
from The Hague says 1t is estimated
that the Belgian wounded up to the
present time number 10000. while the
first casually list published contained
the names Of 1000 dead The total
number Of Belgians killed is placed at
10000 AS the Belgians constitute
only small proportion Of the troops
engaged. it requires no highly imag-
NATIVE mind to conclude that the en-
tire loss of life must be several times
that number.

SUBSCRIPTIONS RdTES.
TIE NEW STATE CHAIRMAN.

Shawnee News-Herald; When the
new Democratic state committee unan-
imously selected Alger Melton Of
Chickasha as its chairman. 1t did not
stumble its toe and pitch headlong
into happy situation through acci-
dent. On the contrary. Judge Melton
was named out In the open with every
body holding his head high and no
apologies to make. The Chickasha
man is a new figure in statewide poll
tics. He is the very antithesis of
what we are wont to associate with
the politician. He is not politician
IN any sense OF the word. but an Okla
homan who loves his state and whose
interest in good government and pub
lie affairs has led him out into the
arena of political activity. He be-
lieves and practices clean politics. He
Is one OF those who realize the neces-
stiles Of the Democratic party and
he early espoused the cause Of Judge
Williams because he saw in the form
cE chief justice those qualities that
appear to be most in need in the ex-
ecntive branch OF our government.
To know Algert Melton personally
is to like him. People like him, they
say. because he Is fair, because he
analyses men and situations. and be-
cause he Is dispassionate in his views,
yet thoroughly loyal. He would rath-
er do thing because 1t is right than
do IT for political reasons. and that
requires real courage. In appearance,
Judge Melton is Of that type that at
tracts and impresses on first acqualnt-
ance. though he is utterly lacking in
Inflated importance.
Judge Melton has lived in Chicka.
sha many years and has built up
law practice there that is one OF the
very largest in the state, and. 1t is
proper to add, so that there need to be
no misaDprehensions on the part OF
anyone, that he has done this without
patronage at the hands of those cor
porate organizations whose interests
are regarded by some as being incom
patible with the public welfare.
In state politics. Judge Melton Ii
certain to widen the circle OF his
friendship, and with his past life as a
criterion. it is safe to predict for him,
should he care to prosecute or con-
itinue his interest in public affairs, a
marked and conspicuous success.

Talk OF election contests fills the air

there was illegal voting during the

against Judge Williams Is mere hot

WORKING FOR PUMA GoRDA

The annual election of the
Board of Trade resulted in the
choice of a new president. The
vote by which the new officers
were elected was very close.
A glance over the accomplish
ments of the pas t year shows
much effective work done by the
Board of Trade under the retir-
ing president, A. F. Dewey; not
all possible perhaps, for the OPP
portunities were greater than ev-
er before, but it was work of
great value to the community.
The new man is in office, full
of enthusiasm. 1t is up to him
to make good and so far he has
made fair start in that direct
ion.

ed by Dr. Stone every member

share Of time and effort to the
end that the city shall come into
the position to which it is entitl-
ed.
A Board of Trade is a civ
building body. Ours is formed
and working for bigger, finer
Punta Gorda.
Public appreciation is never
lightly won. Sustained effort is
required and this the new presi-
dent will be able to give if back
ed by the full membership.
Punta Gorda's time of growth
is come. No man of judgement
who comes into this city and crit
ically examines it and it's tribu-
tary territory but feels the thrill
of its new life. A substantial
community is bound to be devel-
oped.
Punta Gorda has special issues
at stake in its numerical growth
during the coming year and
Board Of Trade bureaus have
been named with these matters in
mind. 1t is truly critical per-
iod in the growth of the CITY and
surrounding territory and only
through concerted action in the
community can most vital results
be secured.
Let every, public spirited citi-
zen join the Board of Trade and
work for the good of Punta Cor
da.
