Dunllirk, n. Y, Sept. 1.-THE
League Of Nations was attacked here
today by Senator Pondexter. republ-
can, Washington. as a harbinger Of
world strife. Even in its "inchoate
form and in the act of its creation"
the league, the senator said, has stirred
up racial quarraeS and animosities
between the United States and many
foreign nations. The future opera
tion Of the league" he added, lis bound
to intensity these quarrels and antag-
onlsms and bring war instead of the
promised peace to the world.
Many people who have been strong
ly in favor Of the league" continued
Senator uoindeXter, 'disapprove of near
ly everything that the league has done.
The nations acting together in the
peace conference at Paris constitute
the same nations. represented in the
same way as the League of Nations.
Many people regard as dishonorable
and wicked the action of these nations
in league in the peace conference Civ
ing Japan control of Shantung. They
do not like the proposal to give Greek
settlements to our enemy Bulgaria, as
advocated by our representatives in
the conference, and yet they advocate
the League of Nsltions, presumably
because they think that while it does
wicked things in its inception and for
nation, at some time in the future, by
some process of regeneration, it will
do good things. The good things that
it viii do in the future are purely imig
mary, while the bad things that it
has done and is doing in the present
are actual.

United States infected with the league

of American institutions. The man
who advises the surrender of Ameri-
can institutions to foreign control and
the dependence upon the good graces
Of that foreign control for the protec-
tion of American institutions is trait

The cry of partsanship is raised as

The first duty devolving upon us in

tally wounded at Red Fork, three miles

Red Fork is a small town on the

has been the scene of bank robberies
and train robberies in the early days.
The art of train robbery as applied to
the old Indian Territory country. it
may be said, originated with an at

when it was a tiny village more than
20 years ago. That was the first job
notorious in Oklahoma history.
