Down at Evan where Tom Davis
just recently held his famous Town
ley meeting under the name of a
Red Cross picnic, not man voted
for Lindbergh. Every vote went TO
the loyal candidate Burnquist. Evan
|Ehould have flag of honor. They
tell US Tom has to have two body
Guards in Marshall both night and
DAY. The 5000 a day Townley paid
him for his services will not seem
so great to him when he has to come
home and face his old comrades.
ALI arrangements had been made
and contracts ready for the renting
of the Theo. Blake farm 20 pros
porous farmer of Underwood and Mr..
Blake took the contracts and went
to his place to close the deal, but
when he saw well Stick" on the la
pei of his coat, he politely informed
the man that no man who stuck to
Townleyism could manage his farm
and that stuff was off. The man
made all sorts of excuses, but Of 10
avail. Mr.. Blake is 100-percent
American and believes that Townley
is about 100 u-1-American and is not
afraid to let people know where he
stands.
If the League is loyal, as its men,
bers and speakers claim, why is i.
that in a place like Delhi, which has
been loyal from the start, Lindberg
should get but one vote, while in
Wanda, which has been just the op-
posite, Lindbergh should get all but
six votes. Check up as many towns
as you like and you will find any
place that is off-color on the war
question, they stood pat for Lindberg
If Lindbergerism is loyal why
should he get his supper in pro-Ger-
man localities.
The past week has been rather
eventful for the organization (non-

drouth are not inductive to cxceS-
siye activity in the oil fields. Prob
ably 50 per cent of the drilling OPP
erations in Southwestern Oklahoma
are shut down for lack OF drilling

are many leases with drilling clauses

field, it is reported, must drill ~
wells before that time.
The Lone Star Gas Company IS
said to be planning for the construc-

near Dixie, using gas from the wells
in the Loco and Fox regions.
Some hopeful signs for renewed
interest in the Graham and Fox
fields are found in the news that
the Sparks Oil and Development

pany is getting ready to spud in

There are also some signs that
point to a resumption of drilling in
