The Platform.
The platform adopted was as fol-
lows: ~sz
We indorse the principles of the ma
tionai platform Of the Progressive
party.
Assessing Property.
We protest against assessing proper
ty at more than its fair cash value. as
has been done in this county. and we
declare that such assessments are a
deprivation OF the benefits of the con
stitutional limitations on taxation.
We hold the present law which pro
vides for assessing notes and credits
without deducting the debts Of the own
er is manifestly unjust. and we favor
the amendmc-t OF this law. to the end
that such deductions be made. as in
other states.
Occupation Tax
We demand the repeal Of the law
thar permits municipal officials Of a
town or city to impose an occupation
tax upon the useful and beneficial pur-
spits Of its residents for the reason
that it is an unjust burden on those
who pay it. and its effect is 10 increase

Political Parties.

No argument is necessary to prove
that al least two vigorous political par

interests Of any state The Republican
party cannot have the force which a
political party should have, in many
southern states The only hope that
Oklahoma has Of escaping the evils re-

CORN CLUB WORK
WORTH MILLIONS
South Entering New Era of Aericul-
tural Production, Declares
II, q. hastings.

I Atlanta, Ga-(Special.)- THAT the
Boys Corn Club movement means a
great deal more to the South than
the average citizen has ever dreamed,
Is the conclusion presented in an in
teresting interview by II. @. Hastings
OF Atlanta, chairman of the agricul
fural committee of the Atlanta Cham.
Der Of Commerce and manager of the
Georgia State Corn Show, which is
presented annually In the state capt.
toll building.
i I'VE are facing" says Mr.. Hastings,
San era Of agricultural production such
as the world has never before wit
messed. Every year since the first
corn club was organized, the move
ment has seen more than remarkable
growth. One years record has be-
come insignificant when that of the
next year doubled 1t; and by that,
mean that many more boys have gone
anto the work and have vastly In
creased results not only by their own
efforts, but through Inspiration to IA
theirs, brothers and neighbors until
millions of dollars have already been
added TO corn production In the South
And yet this is but forecast of
what Is to como. Phere are now be-
ing organized as an outsrowth or the
corn club work, Three and Four-Crop
Clubs. The boys viii plant oats and
cowpeas on their former corn acre,
thus diversifying their crops and re.
newing the soil, while new acre will
be taken for corn cultivation. In some
sections cotton has been added 20 the
list, on third acre, and the -FOUR
Crop Club boys have already gone to
work.
Another outgrowth of the corn club
is the Pig Club. Southern boys have
learned the truth of the story of the
unsuccessful farmer who sent to a
more prosperous neighbor to buy a
shoat. The neighbor sold him the
shoat. but with 1t presented him a
sack Of corn. You have got the
shoat under your arm, he told the
farmer. but. I want you to remember
that the hog is In the sack"
