NoWs THE TIME FOR BETTER
TEAMWORK.

At the present time at least three
local movements are under way IN
which the business men Of Chickasha
have common interests. There Is the
good roads meeting Monday evening,
Pay.Up Week early in October and
then Fashion and Dollar Day Week.
Now it is quite evident that none
Of these will be more than flash il
the pan unless we have united action
upon the part OF the community in
making them what they should be- Ia
other words, the time is dead-ripe for
some first-class teamwork in Chicka-
sha.
II was discovered long time ago
that lot Of individuals working at
cross-purposes, some pulling forward,
some backward and some not pulling
at all, could never accomplish any
thing. A community In which this
state OF affairs exists is doomed to
Ptagnation.
pay-Up Week, which has become
national IN scope, has been big sue
cess in many cities
Fashion Week and Dollar Days have
been the means of vastly increasing
the business Of the retail merchants
in scores Of cities and towns.
Thousands of communities have
built better roads by getting up en-
thusiasm and going 10 work.
However we have heard Of no place

A VISTA OF RURAL CREDITS.

Herbert Myrick, a rural credit OK
pert. estimates that the difference be
tween the cost Of thirty-three year
one-thousand-dollar farm loan under
the present system and that under the
proposed system Of rural credits Is
$1,000. Under the present arrange
ment the farmer pays about S1s per
cent a year. AT the end Of thirty
three years he viii have paid $2,S05 !
II this interest money had been put
out at five per cent during the thirty
three year period it would have
amounted to 1885. AT tie end of the
thirty-three years the farmer would
have paid, or have foregone in inter-
est. $1,000 and would still owe the
original debt Of $1,000. On the other
hand, if he had borrowed the $1,000
under the rural credit plan he would
have paid $40 year, and at the end
of thirty-three years, with total ex-
penditure OF $2310, would be out Of
debt Under the one plan his creditor,
who did nothing but furnish the origi-
nal one thousand dollars would prac-

The celebration marked the formal
dedication Of the new highway, which
is the highest and in many respects
the most wonderful motor road in the
world. The summit of Pixies Peak IS
l4,150 feet above the level of the sea.
Now that the new highway is coul-

The long twisting uphill journey, how
ever, still furnishes a severe trial to
the power and hill-climbing ability Of

grades that are encountered between

SERIOUS IN

The charge made by Henry Cabot Lodge, based upon al state
Ement by Henry Breckenridge, formerly assistant Secretary OF War
is too serious to be passed over upon the denial of any one of the
presidential satellites and assarediy too serious to be accepted IN
its entirety without still more. Convincing evidence.
But if itshall be proved true, it will be proved at the same time
that Woodrow Wilson is unworthy the support of a single patriotic,
sefrespecting American.
If President Wilson, after having addressed to the German gov
eminent a note which expressed the indignant protest of America
to the Lusitania outrage,=proposed.to add a separate note, as a
postscript, in any way paliahng the offense or casting doubt upon
the sincerity and solemnity of the protest, he insulted and discred-
tied the American nation beyond explanation or reparation.
lfhe has done this thing, he is convicted of the charge freely and
frequently made that his foreign policy has been so insincere.
wobbly and inconsistent that American courage is. impunged
abroad, American. good faith challenged and American veracity
made a byword and laughing stock
8 E9 serious is this affair that it transends in importance any de-
%svelopnent Of the campaign, or any point at issue between the can
didates. Unless the charge is dissipated by unquestioned proof
it will mean and should mean the overwhelming defeat of Mr.. Will
son. Men may differ in party politics and disagree upon questions
of governmental policy, but Americans are a unit when it comes to
unfolding the national honor and maintaining the national dignity
Prove to them that President Wilson sent to Germany a note that
indignant cabinet members from sending a private postscript in
tended to take from the note its life and meaning, and they would
fall away from him as from a leper.
1t seems too astounding to be true. Were it not for the course
of Bryan, then Secretary of State, in refusing to sign the second
note to Germany and in having intnmated to Ambassador Dumba
that America was writing notes for home consumption and not to
be taken too seriously, this charge wiud receive less credence. But
now it seems to have a certain corroboration and comes as a shock
to thoughtful Americans.
Even the partisan, set in his opinion and fixed in his determine
ton, will hope, in his Jealous regard for American honor, at home
and abroad, that the President of the United States will be able
to clear himself of this awful charge-St. Paul Pioneer Press. !
