MUSKOGEE. Okla, July 17.-Mari- on N. Ballew, Frank Lucy and Edward Neely, all cattle men Of near Cookson. Cherokee County, are dead as the re- suit of an old feud that suddenly fam ed in deadly action.
 II is reported that Neely branding iron was stamped over the Ballew brand on a calf a week or two ago. This brought the feud to an acute stage Ballew rode to Neely's house and called him out. Neely was shot dead Ballew then rode to Lucy's ranch. The two men exchanged a fusillade of shots and Lucy was killed. Ballew turned on his horse and a shot from Lucys house supposed to have been fired by his son. dropped Ballew, fatally wounded.
 When a physician reached Ballew he was asked if he had anything to say before the end.
 "No. by God. did this for the good of the country" he replied.

THE SWISS HAVE TOCHOOSE BETWEEN
 CORN OR COAL
Vital Questions Are Being Dis
 cussed by the Freie Zeitung

BERNIE, July 1.-The Swiss "Freie Zeitung' says: After one unsuccess- ful attempt, a second ruthless subma- rine campaign was announced, but Switzerland did nothing effective, even when it was haughtily declared in the German reichstag that it served neut- rals right if their shipping and trade were destroyed; for that would oblige neutrals energetically to force Britain to make peace Although since then the submarine campaigns has caused great damage to the entente, yet on the other hand it developed into di- rect catastrophe for neutrals. It has not only brought us less near the end of the war, but has delayed the com' ing of peace more than ever.
 "The questions that are being ask ed in Switzerland today are: Corn or coal? Groceries or iron?' We strong ly hope Switzerland will choose right ly, but above all to keep the population from starving. Whoever Gin the face of the daily dimnution of German food supplies) should not to himself ask the following question, should easily know the answer. How long will Germany be in a position to deliver us coal and iron? Even last winter Germany fail ed to deliver all the coal she had prom ised to send us. In Germany there is need both of labor and material; their uotput is being used more and more to- wards providing for the war. In the near future Germany will in any case not be able to deliver any of the prom ised goods.
