her ga,e with beautiful flowers.
White Voters DisfranchiSed.
Speaking of Democratic control,
Coz ernor Blease said: You must rise
in your might if you wish to control
your elections The last Democratic
State convention disfranchised many
white voters, and if the same crowd
are continued in power many more
will be disfranchised if it is necessary
for tnem to do so in order to gain
their ends. Two 6-ousand negroes will
vote in the September election. The
present State Democratic administra-
ton is catering to the negro vote as
a balance of power in the contentious
between white men.
News the Papers Give Readers.
The newspapers advocate the views
of the politicians their bosses approve
and give t. ose views to their readers
as news, but candidates whose views
are not in line with those of the own
ers of the papers can not get their
views before the people"
Farmers Secret Societies.
Governor Blease said that some
politicians and newspapers mad roast
ed the secret societies organized by
the farmers in tie lower part of the
State. These societies are no more
secret than are the Farmers Union
and Farmers Alliance. The reason
for the roast is because one must be
real farmer and nothing but farmer
to hold membership. 1t is tie only
organization of simon-pure farmers
since the old Grange. One can not
be a banker-farmer, preacher-farmer,
a merchant-farmer, lawyer-farmer,
or any other kind of a hyphenated
farmer and belong to the new society.
You have to earn your living by your
farm, and if you do anything else you
can't get in. 12at's the reason the
politicians are fighting it; they can't
get any spies in"
Man Who Sells Ballot,
The former governor paid his re-
spects to the alleged farm demon
strators and good roads demo9strat-
ors, who are nothing more or less
than political nenchmen. He made a
strong appeal to tie men on the duty
of the father in being upright and
honest in the handling of his politi-
cal franchise, and reminded his hear
ers that it was natural for tie boy
to think that his father could do no
wrong, and that his teachings to his
son made more impression on the man
of tomorrow than all tie other train
ing he would ever get. He who sells
his ballot is worse than a thief; he is
selling the liberty of the boys who
are not yet men and corrupting the
mind of tie citizen that is to be-"
Anything For Service of Friends.

the race for governor or not. The
time is too far distant to say posi-
lively. AS I have said before, will

for me to make the race, it is possible
t. at I will do so. 1t depends upon
circumstances. The way things look
now, if the campaign opened next
week, would pull off my coat and
jump right in"
Governor Blease was given an old
time ovation at the conclusion of his
speech, leaving short time afterward
by automobile for Belton, where ne
addressed a meeting in tie Woodmen's
hall Saturday night.

corning submarine warfare probably
will not he received for another week
Ambassador Gerard's reports to the
state Department have set no specific
date, but he has predicted that week

Mr.. Gerard has been unable TO learn

Such advices as he has sent portray

further attacks on passenger vessels of
any nationality. but it's difficulty Is to
frame proposal so as 10 prevent the
allies from continuing to ship large
quantities Of ammunition and contra

While the United States claims the
right to have its citizens travel on all
ships. whether they carry contraband
or not, Germany hopes. II is under

whereby Americans would be persuaded
not to take passage on vessels devoted
chiefly to contraband traffic. The sug-
gestion in press dispa tches of joint
British American, or German-Amcrican
inspection of passenger vessels Is re-
Sarded in some quarters as likely TO
furnish basis for a :'artial under
