the skirt and the jacket both are
machine stitched with blue. A sports
costume that consists Of a plain skirt
and belted coat is made Of white
flannel with folds Of emerald silk
poplin as trimming. Pongee and
satin are favorite materials for sports
costumes and pongee is offered in the
most striking colors and designs. A
sports blouse which might be called
modified MILDLY form is Of white crepe
Shantung with big red and black
discs and Is worn with a white skirt.
Notifications ofthe MILDLY are much
liked for sports wear. A very attract
i've gown is Of white sports satin in a
soft quality. The skirt is plain and
plated, but the modified MILDLY blouse
shows a collar that forms a big square
at the back and deep cuffs, both of
which are edged with fur while around
the lower portion of the blouse Is en-
broidery in worsted threads that is
executed in light tans and old rose.
The combination Of plain coats and Of
figured skirts are liked. A notable one
which serves to illustrate the striking
coloring found in Shantung is made
with a skirt of natural colored khaki

with amethyst, and with a coat Of
plain amethyst colored khaki lcool.

holds it's place. A charming gown,
for example, is made of rose colored
silk voile with a soft full skirt and a
tunic like over garment which is richly
embroidered with jet. The vOile is a
very beautiful fabric. a very fascina-
ting fabric indeed, and It lends itself
TO the prevailing fashions with mar
velous success. The jet on the pink
makes an excellent effect, but en-
broidery in beads is not by any means
universal. A very lovely costume is
entirely Of blue voile combined with
silk of the same color, save for a rather
elaborate neck trimming Of white
chiffon edged with fur. 1t is a very
beautiful gown, essentially a gentle
woman's gown and it sounds a note
which must be welcome to the multi
tude Of women to whom the over gay
coloring evolved from the sports idea
Is by no means always welcome.

SITUATION UNDER CONTROL.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. g.
With the uprising of organized armed
bands of o5jectors to the selective
draft that for nearly week has
spread a reign of terror throughout
four central southern Oklahome coun.
ties thought to have been brought
under control and the seat Of the
trouble isolated in Seminole county,
with sufficient heavily armed posses
to hurriediy stamp it out, the war
map unexpectedly shifted late last
night to Hughes county. Two men
were killed and two others wounded.
More than 200 members of the var
ious bands, mostly Of the poor tenent
farmer class, with sparse sprink-
ling of negroes and fewer Indians,
had been placed under arrest last
night and it was announced from the
base of the possess operations at
Saskwa, Seminole county, that with
the exception of two bands, one COM
paratively strong, it was believed the
section had been cleared OF organiza-
tions of the malcontents. With the
assistance Of representatives of the
federal marshal's and district attor-
ney's offices, who will arrive today,
it was hoped that bur little difficulty
would be encountered in running
down and prosecuting the resisters.
Early last night it was reported
that trouble was brewing in Hughes
county and shortly before midnight
Ed Blaylock, an objedtor. was shot
to death near Holdenville, and two
members of his band encountered
were wounded.

CLEAN, CLEAR STATEMENT

To the Editor: 1t is the purpose of
the Non-Partisan League, which is an
organization Of farmers in North Da-
kota, to organize in the .other western
states as fast as possible with view
of protecting the farming population
from being exploited by the innumera-
BILE parasites who now prey upon them.
The purpose of the organization is to
establish markets for the products of
the farm; to have the state build pack
ing houses. cold storage plants, -four
ing mills and put in stock yards and
thus eliminate the exploiting manipu-
lators who now fix the price of their
products.
1t is their purpose also to establish
state commercial agencies to handle the
things the farmer has to buy SO that the
intervening persons who not only rob
the farmer when he sells his stuff but
rob him when he buys what he does not
produce, will be compelled to join the
ranks of the producing class.
1t is the purpose of the farmers or
ganization to own the public utilities
that are now used to exploit everybody
out Of what they now earn and to check
thereby, in measure, the concentration
of all the wealth in the hands of few
that are constantly growing fewer and
to give to the toiler the full product Of
his toll and to stop the tendency now 81
vigorous and apparent to make all the
producers OF wealth the slaves Of the
idle.
Their purpose is to encourage farm
ownership and to free the land entirely
from the burden Of rent. Farmers
know that society is organized in the
interest Of the few and for the exploit.

and economic system must be changed

RIGHT OR WRONG.
OUR COUNTRY


There comes time in the life of
nations, as of individuals, when the
Issue is life or death, honor or shame.
Such time now exists. Old preju-
dices, old suspicious, ancient wrongs,
the memory of injustice and the ira
dltions of the defeat are swept away
in the supreme test of loyalty to the
institutions of the great republic.
The conditions that now confront
the nation are not to be changed by
words. They can only be ruled by
the sword. The opinions of citizens
are puerile; the nat of the govern.
ment at Washington is vital, There
is one law-instant and unquestion-
ing obedience to the voice of author
lty. The man who qulbbles is a fool;
the man who hesitates is a coward;
the man who deties is a traitor.
A citizen is either for America or
against her. The time of choosing
has passed forever; the debate has
closed; the die is cast, and the armed
hosts now go streaming forth to
achieve that victory which can only
be won through the sacrifice of prec.
ious lives,
10 those Americans Of Irish blood
the slow processes of events which
brought our beloved country into
alliance with England were distres.
sing. With voice and pen all Ameri-
cans of Irish race strove to avert the
impending alliance. But there was
no turning back the hand of fate.
There couidgbe no referendum under
our constitution. The power of de.
claring war rests with the senate and
congress-. They exercised their pre-
negatives in s. solemn session after
reviewing the facts and listening to
the words of the president.
When the choice was made by the
American government it was mad e
for every man, woman and child un.
der the American flag. There is no
turning back. The flag is raised
amid perils more fateful than have
ever threatened our lives and our
freedom.
No man or woman of the Irish race
can sulk in the tent OF bitter memo,
ries in this hour. No man who treas
ures the story of this mighty nation,
and who reflects upon the innumer-
able host which poured across the
sea to enrich America during the last
200 years, to live for her and to die
for her--no man who remem bers with
thrill of pride the immortal Irish
names on the scroll of American his
tory-can hesitate single instant
in deciding the path of duty.
1t would be a strange phenomenon,
indeed, for Irishmen or the sons of
lrishmen, to doubt their duty to the
land of which they have ever been
proud and which has ever been proud
OF them. Since the earliest exiles of
the green isle pushed back the Indian
on the frontier, through a succession
of toll and danger, through war and
peace, the glorious tradition of Irish
loyalty has been among the most
splendid of our heritages. The Ma

CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES

Butter prices are higher now than
ever before in history at this time Of
the year and the explanation given is
that "flies have bothered the COWS s
good deal, causing them to slack up
in their milk supply" just as though
similar conditions didn't apply in all
other years ia the past. Those who
are responsible for the high prices
had better find some better excuse to
act as a peg on which to hang their
reason for robber prices.
Is ii too that the flies have bother
ed the hens 80 they cannot lay as
many eggs as they otherwise would
have laid and is the condition differ
ent from what it has been in all other
years? Does any sane person believe
that good reason why eggs are sell
ing for almost double what they have
been sold for in other years at this
seasonY
Though there are thousands OF
acres more Of potatoes this year than
in other years Of the past and though
the grounds filled with tubers where
lever examination has been made,
prices continue to be unreasonably
high. Have the flies gotten in their
work on the potatoes too? 4
Even the prices being demanded
for honey are higher, much higher {.
than In other years. It must be that 3
the faithful honey bee too has had
the life pestered out Of him by flies
or that the flies have beaten him to-
the honey-laden blossoms. Ism It..
strange the flies meyer learned these
tricks before?
A line of reasoning quite IS reason
able as that for the high price Of
butter is that the flies have become
allies Of the Teutons, But neither
line Of reasoning will hold good. Tho
only reasoning that will hold good 10

THE POTATO PROBLEM

Sioux Falls Journal: The potato game
around here is a riddle too difficult to
solve. Where dealers get the cue for
making prices, how they happen to be
SO uniform. how they can make price
for one line of business and another for
another. and not make slip; how they
know how much to drop the price when
carload is shipped in by an independ-
ent dealer, all these ramifications pre-
sent maze most bewldering to the
buying public.
For instance, purchaser can buy a
bushei for home and the price has
been 50 SO or 60 cents peck. a res
taurant keeper will go to the same store
and get only a single bushel and pay So
Both purchases were made within an
hour of each other on test. Last Sat-
urday potatoes from the car could be
bought for 80 cents bushe. Monday
there was a wholesale price of ST. a
bushel, but if you bought peck you
paid 90 cents for them, and put up in 6
sack which would not hold a peck.
The whole thing could be cleared up
il the commission took the lid off for a
while, as it is said citizens would not be
paying more than so cents per bushel,
and possibly rs cents, it depending
