With 200 Diamond Rings.

Muskogee. Okla, June %. -

ual violence here blew the front
out Of a jewelry store and sent
200 diamond rings rolling down
a business street. Although the

searching for the rings. The
proprietor of the jewelry store

cover many before the crowd ar
rived, Thirty stones, valued at
$500, were not recovered. the
jeweler said.

any such argument to men with empty
dinner pals.
Men whose only possession is an
empty dinner pail and a reduced pay
envelope cannot be convinced that the
tariff is not responsible for their con-
dition. They had work when the tar
iff was passed and are out of work
or on reduced pay today. They nat
.urally associate the two and cannot
be convinced that their conclusions are
wrong.
lou can go down south and take
the railroads and throw them into the
gull and the people there would still
vote the democratic ticket, but you
cannot go into Ohio and injure the
manufacturing industries ami get the
people to stand by you.
These are hard sayings from dem
ocrat to democrats. But they are true
sayings, and there are going to be
many more of the same sort between
now and the meeting Of the next dem
ocratic national convention. The hide
bound free traders have blundered
horribly in tariff making, and they
are certain to be punished at the polls
for the monstrous injuries they have
inflicted upon American labor, Amer
ican industry, American business and
American prosperity-National Farm

What Love Isl

Love-" writes the editor Of an
eastern paper, "is at first an illusion
and then a delusion."
We can't remember just who this
editor is or in what paper the quota
ton appeared, but we'll bet our Sun
day-go-to-meetin' boiled shirt that he
walks backwards and that instead of
good red blood there flows through his
veins the sourest of vinegar.
Probably somewhere back in his
purple, palpitating past there was a
girl who passed him by and married
the other fellow and ever since the
carlcing canker of crabbedness has
been eating away at that which once
beat as his heart.
Love a delusion.
By all the golden, sunny ringlets on
the brow of Cupid, by all the sweet
lips that ever puckered into a rosebud
to receive the kiss of her lover. we
swear that love is no delusion.
Does a delusion make the world
go round. Is the blue sky an illusion?
Is it an illusion when our cardiac
pumping station goes all aflutter at
the soft whispered words of the sweet
est girl God ever made?
Is it an illusion when we thrill in
every nerve if a tiny, soft, velvety,
hands chances to linger, just for an
instant, in ours, as we look into a
pair of eyes whose limpid depths make
the profundity of the ocean seem shall
low as a mud puddle?
Is it an illusion when the very mar
row in our spinal column freezes if
we hear that "THE" girl has date
with another fellow?
Is it an illusion when she buries her
face behind the lapel of our coat, shy
ly mods her little head and answere
"yes" when we ask her the greatest
question in the world?
We should say notl
Love is the concentrated essence Of
goodness, sprinkled upon the tender
petals of a crystalized violet. 1t
comes sEsy-hooting down from the high
heavens on a mellow moonbeam, en-
twines it's silken tendrils about your
fluttering heart until your breath
comes in short, quick, ecstatic gasps
and your soul just seems to float away
on billow Of seafoam to the Island
Of Rosebuds and Orange Blossoms.
Love an illusion?
1t is not. And believe US, we know.
We've tried it often enough.

Representative Whitacre, elected as
a democrat from an Ohio district, has
been telling his free trade brethren in
the house some unpleasant truths
aboGs the tariff. 1t is up to them to
prove, says Whitacre, that the Under
wood tariff has not injured business

January %:

revise the tariff without injury to

facturers can show that they have
been injured, it is incumbent upon
the democratic party to make repara

The general business depression
shows that industry has been injured
and the democratic party today can
not prove that the tariff worked no
injury-except in the single case of
pottery. This is the only item l can
confidently defend.

thai the tariff was not entirely re-
sporsible for the business depression,
but he said he did not care to make

Concrete Canal Lining

Whenever irrigation water becomes
scarce there is usually a lot of talk
about cutting down the waste of wat
er. Irrigators, canal superintendents
and engineers all have part in the
discussion, and often each thinks the
other is wasting the most of the wat
er However, it is not uncommon to
have all agree that the seepage losses
from the canals and bitches is too
great, which brings up the question
Of canal lining.
1t has been estimated that of all
the water turned into the heads of
main canals, excavated in earth, in the
United States, 40 per cent is lost by
seepage, but since part of this is
recovered by lower canals, the actual
water loss amounts to probably 25
per cent. Whether or not it will pay
to place lining in a canal to save the
water lost by seepage, will depend
upon the damage which the seepage
is doing to lands along the canal and
the value of the water that would be
saved. As the water supply becomes
more completely used its value in
creases, and in several sections of the
West the price is so high that it has
been found to be good business to
place costly lining in the canals and
bitches. This development has been
prominent in the past few years, and
the good and bad points have been
noted in Bulletin No. 126 of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, which may
be obtained from the Division of Pub
locations, Department of Agriculture,
Washington, d. C.

LAND COMPANY MAKING M
PROVEMENTS
viii Spend Thousands of Dollars In
Erecting Residences and Building
Dairy Barns for Tenants

The A. V. Land company started a
force of men at work Tuesday morn
ing to provide suitable residence and
dairy barns for Mr.. Chas. Thoma,
who is coming here from Arvada,
Colorado, to enter the dairy business.
The contractors are building a five
room residence for him, also a mod
ern dairy barn, which will be large
enough for forty head of cows. The
work is to be rushed and Mr.. Thoma
is to be in possession by April first.
The places are being built on the COM
pany land near the old Beet Farm.
This is the first of a number of
such places which will be built by the
Land company for their dairy ten
ants. They will start work on an
other such place as soon as the pres
ent one is completed.
In addition to the new building the
Land company is placing house on
a large number of eighty acre tracts
owned by them near the Beet Farm.
These houses were formerly occupied
by the men employed on this large
ranch, and they are now being moved
to the new locations. Wells are also
being driven and an abundant supply
of first-class water will be provided
for each tenant.
A large number of dairymen have
signified their intention to locate near
this town, as the advantages possess
ed by this county as a dairying coun-
try is fast becoming known over the
state and surrounding states. There
is no doubt but that in a few short
years this will be one of the greatest
dairying sections in the world.
Practically all the carpenters in the
town have been engaged to assist in
this work, i. e., all that are not now
employed on the other building jobs
which are under construction here at
present.-Holly Chieftain.

How He Saved

It has often been remarked that
when one tries to save-say, man
abstaining from tobacco or cigars and
a woman from candy and ice cream
the amount expended goes into some
thing else just as necessary. 1t is all
like saving at the spigot and wasting
at the bung hole. According to a
western paper, the Hon. William AL
The Lamar register. [volume] (Lamar, Colo.) 1889-1952, 1915-02-17

Some time ago we commenced on
the revelation that the ship purchase
bill, in the fifth form in which it was
presented to the senate, contained
language well calculated to catch the
votes of men who looked upon the
measure as a mere emergency and
those who regarded it as a perma-
nent policy 1t was after admissions
by Senator Simmons, compelled by
the shrewd inquiries of Senator Nor
ris, that the seven democratic sena-
tors bolted the bill. The language of
the presidential message was quoted
to prove that il was the purpose of
the governemnt TO open new routes
of commerce and then retire from
the business. Hence an ambiguous
leasing clause was inserted ''to catch
them coming and going, as Senator
Norris styled it.
The president appears to have shift
ed his position. While willing to agree
to a change that would forbid the pur-
chase of interned vessels of belliger-
ants, unless such purchase should be
internationally satisfactory, he is re-
ported to have declined to accede to
the request of Mr.. Kitchen, who will
be floor leader of the majority in the
next House. that another amendment
provide that the government shall re-
tire from the experiment within two
years after the close of the European
war. There may have been two rea-
sons for this change of presidential
purpose. One was given in a speech
of Senator Smoot. He showed that
the government parted with the aux
iliary vessels it bought at the outset
of the Spanish-American war at a
great sacrifice. The Hornet, costing
$4,000 was sold for $500. An
other costing $150,000 was sold for
$4663. One costing $350,000 was sold
for $l75,OO0. On an average the gov
ernment received 20 per cent of the
purchase price and in some instances
barely 8 per cent.
The other reason, probably more
persuasive, in view of the hope of
certain progressive votes, in that gen
uine believers in government owner
ship would resent the government in
vesting several million dollars in sec
onhand vessels, operating them at a
great expense under unfavorable CON
ditions while establishing the new
routes" and then selling out to pri-
vate corporations. Persons who OPP
pose the venture altogether would not
be mollified by the Kitchen amend
ment, while those who believe in gov
ernment ownership would be disgust
ed with it. The president prefers hay-
ing somebody satisfied. The difficulty
the president has in lining up the
present house, with its unwieldy ma
jority, suggests the graver difficulty
of managing the next house. The SEN
ators who began the fllibuster were
confident that the longer the bill was
before the people the greater woulc
be the opposition to ic. Their theory
has been vindicated, so far. 'Fhe pres
idsnt recognizes that if he cannot

MAY BE MADE BY
PETITION
Attorney General Is of Opinion That
Mass Meeting is Best Way to
Handle Matter

As there seemed to be some doubt
regarding the legality of nominating
a city ticket without a primary cleo
ton. the editor of The Gazette-Topic
took the matter up with Attorney
General Fred Farrar. who, in reply
to our query, has the following to
say regarding the spring election
which is now so near at hand:
"If a political party whose candi-
date for governor received 10 per
cent of the total vote cast at the last
preceding general election in the state
fails to hold an assembly and if no
petition is filed with the signatures
of the required number of voters, as
prescribed in section of the pri-
mary election act of 1910. the city
clerk need not prepare a primary bal
lot for that party. The party, both
through it's regular organization and
through the members at large, having
indicated no desire to place a pri-
mary ticket in the field, it cannot be
deemed to be the purpose of the pri-
mary law to force a primary election
for that party. Should all the politi-
cal parties ranking as such under sec
tion of the primary election law fail
to make primary designations, either
by assembly or by petition Of individ-
ual voters of the party, it seems to
me that it is not incumbent on the
city authorities to incur the expense
of a primary election. Such failure
to designate candidates for the pri-
mary election may well be taken TO
indicate a desire on the part of the
political party that it does not wish
to hold a primary.
"Under section 26 of the primary
election law of 1910, independent
nominations may be made and a pc
litical or other designation may be
adopted by the signers, but, of course,
they cannot use the name of any po-
litical party as defined in section 2.
"There is no reason why the sign
ers should not sign the petition at a
mass meeting if they so desire. A
mass meeting would indeed furnish
the means Of obtaining a unanimous
action.
Should the nominations made at
such mass meeting not meet with the
approval of those who were unable to
attend, the latter and their friends
could easily comply with section 26
by presenting another certificate of
nomination, naming those candidates
whom they desire.
Should we be in error as to the
first proposition, that is, that a pri-
mary election need not be held if all
the political parties fail to take steps
for the designation of primary candi-
dates, it would be an easy matter to
find out what the law is by endeavor-
ing to mandamus the party officers
or, at least, the officers of the city
who are charged with duties in con-
nection with a primary"
