BOY RUN DOWN BY A
SPEEDING AUTO; HIS
FATHER WILL SUE

James, the 11.year-old son Of w. l..
Wilson, who lives at the corner of d
street and Broadway sustained severe
injuries Friday afternoon when two
speeding automobiles crashed together
and struck him as he was standing on
the sidewalk waiting for the cars TO
pass.
Mr.. Wilson. who is an empioye OF the
Echols Printing Company, stated that
the boy was severely injured ana had
to be taken to the sanitarium for
treatment. According to Mr.. Wilson's
statement, the machines were being
driven by a boy and girl, respectively.
The one occupied by the girl was com
ing south on - street ana the one driv-
en- by the boy was going west ON Broad.
way. Mr.. Wilson stated that he has
learned the cars We're exceeding the
speed limit when the collision occurred.
MIR. Wilson says that he has the name
of the boy who was driving and that he
will obtain the name Of the driver OF
the other car and will institute legal
proceedings in order to reimburse him
for the cost of hospital fees, and also
to serve as n lesson to other careless
drivers in the city.
The Wilson boy was resting easy this
morning. Fortunately no bones were
broken. but he sustained several severe
bruises, besides a deep hiatus which
required a number of stitches to draw
the edges together.

that they will awake to the situation before
the campaign Of 1920 opens.
Still another of these significant facts from
the Fifth is the fact that the republican party
is making a most tremendous effort to snatch
Oklahoma out of the democratic column; an
effort not appreciated at its undubitabe force
and energy by the democratic party in this
state. The republicans, through their national
organization, have centered upon Oklahoma as
the one mysterious stranger" whom they hope
to see lined up in the G.. O. P. column next
November. The result in the Fifth district
should be a warning to the democracy of Okla
homa that such is the fact
The republicans will make use of every
argument, fair or unfair, and no matter how
unfair to induce Oklahoma voters to cast bal
lots against the administration. Their propa-
gandists are working right now, and have been
working for many months, and they will be
working until election day next November
working in the open where they are assured
that candor is to their benefit, and working in
sidiOusly, like the Hun, where they believe that
by snake-nthegrass methods their unholy
cause may be advanced
Let us learn some lessons through the
facts from the Fifth, and let us profit thereby.

SOME FACTS FROM THE FIFTH

TNHE ELECTION Of former Judge Hareld,
republican, over former Congressman
Weaver, democrat, in the Fifth congressional
district Of Oklahoma last Saturday, is signifi-
cant of several facts. Perhaps the most signifi-
cant of these several facts is the fact that the
socialist vote in this state, the Importance Of
which is by no means to be despised, is lined
up against the League of Nations and will go
solidly for any candidate who opposes the
League.
Socialism in Oklahoma, as elsewhere
throughout the United States, is opposed to any
policy which promises to maintain civil GOV
ernment as organized at present; being some
what ignorant brand of socialism, it reaches
out Intellectually for the unattainable and
dreams the dreams Of an iridescent impossible
ity.
We learn from the press reports that the
socialist vote in the Fifth district went almost
solidly if not quite so, to the republican nomi-
nee. This is something for the democracy to
remember. The socialists, including those who
imagine themselves to be socialists and those
who lean toward the thing in this state called
socialism for want of a filter term of descrip-
ton, will be virtually unit for Senator Gore
in his campaign for reelection. If the social
lists and the so-called who vote in the demo-
cratic primary can bring about Mr.. Cores re-
nomination, the socialists and the So-called
who vote the republican ticket in the primary
and those who vote for a socialist in the pri-
mary will line up, most Of them, behind Mr..
Gore at the general election. The socialists
love Mr.. Gore-he is, generally speaking, one
Of their own kind.

WHY NOT GET BUSY NOW

DR NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER watts
H. himself homeward from the West to say
that there is strong feeling out there that
the democratic administration in Washington
by acts Of omission and acts Of commission and
by acts Of Incompetence, has actually mperil-
led the foundations Of our institutions;' there
fore, the embattled Republicans "have sternly
resolved, as their fathers did when they went
to the polls for Abraham Lincoln in 1860, that
this American republic must be preserved from
every attack Of socialism or sem-socalism, of
boshevism or anarchy of q Soviet form of gov
ernment or by whatever name it may be call
ed"
This is as thrilling as a jazz band, but why
do these impassoned patriots wait until the
polls open? Why not get busy now? asks
the New York World. There is a republican
congress, with a working majority in both the
Senate and the House Of Representatives The
business Of preserving the country from the
enemies Of the Republic need not be delayed
until 1921. 1t can start any day. and its power
to Iegislate cannot be questioned.
We used to think rather highly of the
Republican party as a saviour of the country,
but in those days it did not try to postpone the
saving until after the next campaign. If the
western republicans are as agitated as Dr..
Butler says they are-and if we remember
rightly, Dr.. Butler is the gentleman who car
ried California unanimously for Hughes in
19lG-they had better begin poking up their
republican congress at once Nobody else has
been able to get anything out Of it.

ATLANTA OBSERVES
NEW FUEL ORDER

ATLANTA, Dec. 3-Atlanta is ad-
herring strictly to the provisions of
the new fuel order. Stores are open
ing at 9 O'Clock and closing at 4. In
every respect the conservation orders
are being strictly followed out.
The city is said to have about two
weeks supply of coal on hand.
The following interpretations of
the fuel conservation order have been
made by the Regional Coal Commit
tee:
l. All manufacturers will be held
strictly to a forty-eight hour week
regardless of quantity of coal they
may have on hand. Later the COM
mittee may make an exception of
manufacturers owning and operat-
ting their own hydro-electric plants.
Food manufacturers are excepted just
to the extent necessary to keep their
business going, but no more.
2. The hours of business (from
9 to a o'clock apply to everybody
embraced in the rule, regardless of
whether a concern keeps open with
kerosene as substitute for coal, or
keeps open without any heat at all
In other words every concern to which
the 9-to-4 rule applies must observe
the rule, heat or no heat.
3. Retail grocers doing business
on a cash and carry plan asked per-
mission to stay open until o'clock in
the afternoon instead of closing at
a, their contention being that most
of their customers buy after o'clock.
This committee did not rule on their
application.
4. Manufacturers of and whole
sale dealers in food are allowed to
exceed their hours to just the nec-
essary extent to keep their businesses
going, but no more. The food man
ufacturers hours are forty-eight hours
week, and the food wholesalers
hours are from to four daily.
5. Dance halls are classified as
public amusement and allowed to stay
open to 1890 o'clock in the evening.

GIRL SWIM STARS
COMING TO FRONT

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1.-Two
girls, 16 and IT years old. and a
third, who a year ago "a unable to
swim a stroke, are engaging the at
tention of followers of aquatics on
the Pacific coast.
Miss Helen Martin. 16 years old,
of Honolulu, in a recent swimming
meet, lost only by a few inches in
the 5O-yard breast stroke event to
Mrs. Terie Desch. Miss Martins
performance Is the more remarkable
by reason of the fact that in this
race. Mrs. Desch created a new Pa
cific coast record of l minute, SO 3-5
seconds for the distance.
Ruth Crane is the II year old
mermaid. In the same meet she
won both the so and 100 yard
sprint events. She is an Alameda
girl, and her friends are predicting
a brilliant future for her in swim
ing competition.
Lillian Snowgrass who, a year
ago, was unable to swim a single
stroke, placed second in the diving
to Miss Gladys Boehmer,
the Pacific association champion.
She has competed only a few times.
Under the circumstances her ability
is considered remarkable.
