Catarrh of the throat Is not only an
annoying disease OF itself, but 1t ex-
poses the victim to many other dis
eases. We are constantly breathing
into our throats numerous atmos-
pheric germs. Disease germs of all
sorts. This cannot be avoided. II
the throat Is healthy the system is
protected from these poisonous
germs. But If the throat is raw and
punctured with numerous little ul-
GERS, by, catarrh, then the disease
germs have easy access to the system.
Keep the throat well and clean.
This Is the way to protect yourself
against contagious diseases. Garsle

Something Stronger Than Rules
Needed.

But suppose for a moment that we
could eliminate factionalism for once
and hold the convention in session
long enough for careful deliberation.
We would then get only party rules
and not State laws. We protect our
hogs by law--shall we trust the
birthright Of our suffrage to a party
rule? ....
When our people go to the ballot
box there is set in motion one Of the
mightiest forces that move them.
Deep convictions are stirred, strong
passions loosed. Along with the
many moved by high motives, march
the determined band Of avaricious
seekers for personal advantage and
those lusting for power. Here, If
anywhere in the life of our people,
the strong arm of the law is needed
to protect us from the forces of evil
in the exercise of the most sacred
and fundamental act Of citizenship.
At the hands of the Legislature
d
bulwark to protect our ballot, a bull
wark buttressed by the law and
backed by all the forces of our gov
ernment. Even in States where the
primary nomination is not equiva-
lent to an election, they control
every detail of their primary cleo
tions by laws. How much more nee
essary are the legal safeguards with
us, where the primary Is everything.
Our Legislature has felt the neces-
sity Of primary-protecting statutes
and has enacted some. But they are
scattering. and apply only here and
there, leavinr such wide spaces un-
protected that they amount to little
or nothing. BY passing them we have
admitted the principal OF statutory
regulation, but by stopping with only
a beginning accomplished, our effort
has been futile.

Why Convention Does Not Act.

We have depended on party con-
ventions. Time after time the con-
vention has side-tracked proposed re-
forms. If you have ever been to
State Convention you know why. 1t
Is an unwieldy crowd of men who
rush through a lot of business in
few hours. They got to considera-
ton Of the report of the committee
on rules late in the program, some
times near midnight. There is no
time to deliberate, and rather than
adopt rules they do not understand
the convention does nothing
Even should the session be extend
ed to two days, and the second be
given to rules, there could be no
thorough consideration. Delegates
twice as numerous as che whole Leg
islature, unorganized, split into war
ring factions, many of the individ-
uals candidates in an impending pri-
mary, cannot be expected to give the
calm, fair, non-partisan attention
and decision without which there
could be no satisfactory change in
our party primary system.
We are not guessing at possibili-
ties, or even stating probabilities, but
facing facts established in our con-
ventions.

.29 COUPLES WERE
 DIVORCED IN 1913
s~ s@N&

Following the publication yesterday of statistics of marriage licenses is- sued in Faulkner county, reader has asked that the Log Cabin Democrat re- port the number of divorces granted in the county during the year just ended. As divorce proceedings are en- tered on the same record with all other chancery court matters, it is rather difficult to obtain the figures, but a search of the records for the year 1913 6scloses the fact that in the two terms of chancery court there were granted 29 divorces.
 As the marriage licenses for 1913 numbered 34l, one divorce was de- creed in the county for each 12 mar riage licenses, or fraction over eight per cent.

OBITUARY.

On November 26, 1913, Lee Roy Williams died of heart trouble. He was 12 years, two months and 10 days old. He had been an invalid all of his life, and suffered many times, it seem- ed, more than one could bear, but he always bore his suffering with pa- tience. Roy was always 50 good and kind, everybody liked him. His par. ents moved to Holdenville, Okla., last January, thinking it would be benefi- cial for Roy, though he seemed to grow worse until his death. He was buried in Holdenville cemetery, Rev. Butler, pastor of the Baptist church, holding the funeral services. We know Roy will be missed in the home; our loss is heavens gain. HIS AUNT.
