Sc \HlD OF THEMSELVES.

The Democratic majority in tho
lower house of congress. while II has
apparently settled down to the task
Of oboyng the presidents demand for
"A radical increase in the military
strength of the nation, is still pro-
crossing timidly and in great trcpida-
tion. The members seem TO be afraid
To antagonizc the president or to ig-
more the popular demand for. pre-
parcdnoss, and az the same time are
scared of the pacifist sentiment in
the country and fearful of antagon-
izing the hyphenated vote. The
Columbus incident has had the eflc-t
of spurring them up little ana they
have decided to adopt at least half
way measures looking to the military
needs of the country. Even the most
vigorous opponents of warfare and OF
adequate military preparedness con-
ccde that whatever army this country
does maintain should be kept up to
the highest possible state of effic.
icncy, and they are as astounded as
any others at the state Of unprepared-
ness In which Villas expedition
caught the American forces In New
Mexico. Those who are disposed To
look ON the bright side of every in
cident are calling attention TO the
fact that Villas raid has at least had
the effect OF opening the eyes OF the
people To the weakness and made
quacy OF our military establishment
and that its effect will be to hasten
tho needed preparations TO strengthen
the army and correct its inefficicu-
cios. The American soldier is brave
enough and skilled enough. but tharo
are not enough of him. and he can
not expect to do the service required
o' him as long as he is hampcrcd by
the laundering inefficiency of those IN
authority and by the niggardliuesG
and insincerity Of our representatives
in congress. Lot congressman forget
the preiudices of their constituents on
this occasion when the welfare of the
whole nation demands their supreme
ana unqualified attention.

"A. NJ. WEIGH, Humane Agent"
Can This BE Worked Out?

Most of us would like to help the
needy poor more than we do, but
have been imposed upon so frequently
that we sometimes fear that we are
becoming hard.hearted. The man who
gives indiscriminately is the real
enemy of genuine charity. To make
mooching easy is not a virtue. on the
other hand. the thought that we have
allowed some worthy person to suffer
when we might have relieved suffer-
ing, is not conducive to sleep.
Could it be arranged to give n book
of coupons to persons who apply, to-
gethor with an index number to pre-
vent fraud, so that when n man stops
them for help, they could tear out a
ciety, or other charitable institution,
which would cooperate? This coupon
would guarantee that the person
whose name 1t bore would be respon-
sible for the help given in case the ap-
plicant should prove worthy. If the
one seeking help did not think enough
of the system to carry the ticket to
headquarters 1t would be evidence
that he was either not hungry or had
reasons for keeping away.
A City Where Ii Worked.
The Man About Town once lived in
Brooklyn. During those days the
United Charities kept woodward
where needy men could work out
what they required. A great strong
husky came to our house one day and
wanted help. We directed him to the
secretary of charities and phoned that
we would help him II worthy. Soon
he came back with n yellow ticket to
show that he was worthy. We look ed
at II and saw that It was an order that
he be admitted to the woodward for
exercise. When we told him that he
now had n job and did not need
charity II became necessary to close
the door quickly. We venture the as
sertion that not one In three who ap-
ply for help would dare face Mr..
Welch II such a system were inaug-
urated here

NOT THIS TIME.

our Socialist friends are making a
loud noise about their Intentions Of
sweeping the state of oklahoma In
this year of 1916 Perhaps there ap
pears to be some justification for
their confidence. Heretofore the
growing discomfort and disgust of
Democratic misgovcrnmcnt has done
much to strengthen the Socialist vote
and many Republican voters have
agoment The chief reason for this
waf that the Republican party ias
own and any relief from the brand
Of Democracy that has been imposed
The Fields campaign demonstrated
that there was latent force of Re
puhlicansm ready to seize the first
real opportunity TO throw off the
Democratic yoke. and had the party
been organized at that time the man
in the governors chair would rot
have borne the name OF Williams
Now circumstances are different The
Republicans are up on their metcie
and determined TO do things. There

year. but a determined campaign ;u

for the Socialists. who have accumu-
lated so much strength in past eloc-
tious FOR there is going TO be a well
defined issue between the dominant
PARTIES and the voters viii he impcllcl
to align themselves definitely, instead
Of registering their protest against
Democracy in a haphazard way. In

It is doubtful IL the Socialists can even

THE WAR AT A
GLANCE

Infantry attacks northwest Of Yer
dun preceded by vigorous bomb bard
ment have enabled the Germans to
gain a foothold on the small hill of
Haucourt which lies just outside the
village of Malancourt and between
that town and the eastern edge of
the Malancourt wood.
The entire sector of about two and
half miles from the Avecourt wood
to Malancourt has been subjected to
a violent artillery bombardment and
several German infantry attacks, but
except in the immediate vicinity of
Malancourt the Germans were held
by the French barrier fire and were
unable to advance.
Northeast of Verdun around Dou-
aumont and VauX an intense artillery
bombardment is still In progress. The
infantry forces however have re-
mained inactive in this district.
From the west in the forest of the
Argonne the French are heavily she'll
ing the Malancourt wood, which is
in the hands of the Germans. and at
various points in the forest have
BON barded German organizations and
especially at Four de Paris. La File
Morte and Mont Faucon.
Russian Offensive
The Russian offensive against the
Germans In northwest Russia has in
creased IN intensity and fighting is in
progress day and night. The latest
official statement from Russian gem
eral headquarters says that desperate
infantry fighting is proceeding north
of the town at Postavy. where the
Germans launched violent counter
attacks in an attempt to dislodge the
Russians from trenches which they
had previously captured. Respecting
this operation the Berlin communica-
ton says that at this point, the Rus
slams delivered their attack and their
losses reached extraordinarily high
figures even for the number of Rus
slams in action"
The Russians captured three lines
of the German trenches on the south
western shore of Lake Narocz. where
II Is officially declared the fighting
is developing in favor of the Russian
forces. Here the Russians despite
"asphyxiating gases and n murderous
fire" forced three lines of wire en-
tanglements and made their gains In n
series of fierce hand to hand en-
counters.
Weather is Bad
The Russian war office also Off
cially announces the capture of Ispa-
han in Persia, after an engagement.
An unofficial report received by way
of Rome and London says that the
Austrians have abandoned CZerno-
WITT, capitol Of Bukowina.
Bad weather again has broken over
the Austro- Italian front, but It has
not put a stop to the violent bonn
bardments. The Austrians have de-
livered surprise attacks with infantry
against italian positions at various
points but these. according to Rome,
have been repulsed.
The famous Galloper lightship at
the mouth Of the Thames has been
sunk and. according to a Lloyd's re-
port. the lightship was torpedoed.

KENDALL won The
FIRST BALL GAME
Double Score Made by
Broken Arrow on Lat
ter'S Grounds.

Kendall college officially opened
its baseball season yesterday when it
journeyed to Broken Arrow and de-
feated the Haskell state school of ag-
riculture 10 to 3 in a characteristic
training season contest
The game derives more interest
from the fact that 1t is the first swing
of the Kendall stars this year than
from the standpoint of a baseball
game.
Grove, Handley and Young shared
pitching burdens during the game for
Kendall and it seems that the former
got away to the best advantage.
Grove pitched five innings. Handley
officiated in one and Young finished
the fray.
Jones. playing his new position at
third base, developed mid-season
propensity for clean fielding and hard
hitting His connection with the bali
was among the most notable events
of the game. Humphreys, who was
shifted from first to fill Jones place
at short, settled down 20 his job with
an ease that took the wrinkles out Of
Coach Schmidt's brow.
Grove and Young alternated at the
second sack while Chief Pappan held
down the initial station. Austen formed
ti'S iN'oiN'hS u'p"b N"i'ht' McNialH'
Iiandley and Waters roamed the
fields.
The main feature OF the game was
the fact that Kendall had its eye on
the ball and promises to turn out a
nine with punch.
Kendall will meet the Producers at
Association park Saturday If all goes
well and the league team rounds into
shape by that time. This will be a
somewhat stiffer trial for the collie
sians and should serve to bring out
the strength and weaknesses of the
