Will You Disappoint Him?

On another page of this paper ap
pears a copy of telegram sent tC
Senator Gore last night in which ths
president of the United States conveys
his good wishes to the Democrats Of
Oklahoma and expresses the confident
hope that they will make splendid
showing at the polls" next Tuesday
Along with the rest Of the deception
that the Republicans have been prac'
ticing in this campaign has been q
strenuous effort to make it appear that
Woodrow Wilson is not on trial in the
election next week, that the result o.
this contest can have no bearing on
national politics, but it appears from
this telegram that the president thinks
differently. and ON the eve of election
he takes time to send this message to
us as a reminder. Win Oklahoma dis
appoint this man who is bearing the
brunt of the battle for progressive gov
ernment in the nation?
So successful has Wilson's admins
tration been that the reactionaries in
Oklahoma do not dare to openly at
tack it but on the contrary they even
go so far as to intimate that they are
in accord with what the Democrats in
Washington have been doing. Realiz-
ing that the position of the president
is not open to attack, the Republicans
in this state who are just as much
standpatters as they were when they
aided in nominating TAFT at Chicago,
have adopted indirect tactics, their

SOCIALIST PARTY RECEIVES A
SERIOUS CHECK.

Oklahoma Labor Unit: Control oi
the trades union movement by the Soc
ialist party received severe setback
and perhaps irreparable check at the
Western Federation of Miners con
yention in Denver. Twelve years aga
the organization went on record as of.
ficially endorsing the Socialist party,
and ever since has been claimed and
recognized as one of the partys chief
assets. 1t was admitted on the floor OF
the convention that this action has
lost the Federation thousands of mem.
bers, cost it hundreds of thousands OF
dollars and resulted in the loss Of
scores of lives brought on by conflicts
originated through the carrying out OF
"hairbrained Socialist policies as a
delegate tersely put it. Delegates who
are avowed Socialists asserts that the
Federation made a serious mistake in
ever becoming identified with the Soc
ialist party and charged that the
ground work for the Butte trouble
came from this source.
Mayor Lewis J. Duncan Of Butte,
elected on the Socialist ticket and sup
ported by the 5000 union miners OF
that city, was declared to be a ma
licious falsifier, an enemy to the work
ing class and head Of the most corrupt
municipal government on the Amer.
lean continent"
If Mayor Duncan and his admins
tration at Butte is representative
type Of Socialism / want no more OF
it, was frequent expression. Other
delegates asserted on the floor that
when the question of Socialism was
brought up in their local meetings, halt
the members showed displeasure by
leaving the hall, and that many miners
who would join the union were de
TERED by the fact that the Federation
was looked upon as part of the Soc
ialist party movement"

Unquestionably, John Fields has
made quite success in farming the
farmers of this country since he came
to Oklahoma from Pennsylvania and
took position at the A. & N. college
in the old territorial days. However,
he didn't succeed in harvesting very
large crop of votes when he went into
the Republican primary against Me-
Neal and Tom Ferguson. Standpat pol

they are not fighting Wilson but the
president knows that if John Fields,
who supported Taft two years ago is

reactionaries from coast to coast.
In reality, state issues are a second

The clly hope that the standpat Re
publican candidate has in the election
next Tuesday is that the Democrats in
this part Of the state. confident as to
the result, will not go to the polls. We
should take considerable pleasure in
disappointing this fond hope. Every
Democrat should make it special
point to cast his ballot and see that
none OF his neighbors overlook this inn
portant duty Oklahoma has nothing
to gain and a great deal to lose by re-
instating the reactionaries in power.
With progressive government growing
everywhere, we cannot afford to have
it said that Oklahoma has taken a
backward step. Go to the polls Tues
day.

THE DIG WHITE CAT.
(By Vivian Vale. )

Once upon a time there was big big white cat, ever so much larger than any cat you or have ever seen. It had large green eyes and it's wtis-# kers were almost a foot long So you see it could smell anything. a. long way off For you know a cats whiswers are what helps them to smell.
 It lived all alone in a. hollow trunk of 9 tree in nice big forest and seem so that no one ever came to see it, or cared anything about 1t. It would often sit at the door of it's home at night and look out into the dark with it's big green eyes, and snuff at the animals as they walked by. They did not come very near. and hurried by as fast as they could.
 One night MT. and Mrs. Squirrel were taking their evening walk and they saw the cat sitting at the door. What a horrid. ugly cat,s said Mrs. Squirrel. Lets not go by. I'm afraid
 Mr. Squirrel told her he would look out for her. so they went past, but Mrs. Squirrel was glad when they were past and begged to go home, another way. One day baby squirrel ran far away and walked up to the cats home. Good morning, came to see if you were cross; heard my mother say I11dIL you were anu SllS was 6AIe1O OI you, but you don't look so,r said Baby Squirrel.
 This amused the big cat and 1t began to laugh and put out it's paw towards the squirrel. Just at that moment Mrs. Squirrel came along looking for the runaway, She thought of course the cat was going to hurt her baby, and she ran toward them as fas as she could.
 Baby Squirrel looked up and so did the cat. It called out: T am all right mamma. Don't worry and the cat isn't a bit cross. like it very much.''
 Mrs. Squirrel took hold and gave him a shake and sent him home The cat laughed and told her he would not hurt them. After that each day the baby squirrel would come and see the cat and they were the best of frsenda and had many nice talks together.
 When the mother saw that the cat was not really cross, they ventured to come and visit. So the cat was not lonely any more.

LYRIC THEATRE

'"The Master Cracksman,n . which opened last evening at the Lyric thea tre. received the highest praise from the members of the large audience which greeted its opening night It is a wonderful film and everybody who saw it says so. From the stand point of photopIay some remarkably fine results are accomplished which are really trfumphs in the motion pie ture world.
 The Master Cracksman'.. is a melo- drama It makes no pretense Of be- ing anything else. It is literally filled with sensation and thrills but it is sweet and clean as a nut. There Is nothing broad about it. nothing grue- some. nothing which jars the sensi- bflities.
 The plot is most expressing. Cen tlenan Joe' the master cracksman, plans to steal diamond and. in doing so, falls in love with the girls who owns it.
 cousin has murdered the girls father and her brother. owing to a train of circumstantia1 evidence, is charged with the crime.
 The master cracksrnan reveals in a. most sensational way. the real crirni- nal and in doing so puts himself with in the clutches of the law. His arrest and wonderful escape from the detectives. his leap from a rapidly moving auto into the branches of an overhanging tree, his leap from one auto into another moving swiftly in the opposite direction is sensation which can best be realized by seeing 1t. The characters are excellent. It is an all star cast with Harry Carey former Bfograph star, in the leading role. The scenario is from his pen and it is produced under his direction by the Progressive Motion Picture Corporation. More than that need not be said to guarantee it as being one of the greatest first run pictures ever brought to Bridgepert-
 It is truly .fbig stuff"
 It will run all this week at the Lyric
