has gone before, it is mouthed from
one TO the other with confidence
that ii is true. Indeed, it would
seem, that the more absolutely ii
contradicts all the past life of its
victim. the greater the delight in
lis telling, the more it is believed.
And should the victim deny the
tale, or make any cutlery because
he loves his good name and repu-

call the saying that "a kicked dog

The scoundrel who profits by lies

Der of our people are busy already
sowing the seed for next election.
They have been busy for many long
weary months plying their trade of
lies. They hatch and breed lies
Tor political purposes. Their poor
foolish 'unthinking dupes believe
and pass them on. Keep it up and
some of the children of the father
of liers will obtain the place where
they can exploit the people whom
they have lied out of their Ameri-
can birth-right.
A man who tells lie for politi-
Cal purposes is a traitor 10 his coun-
Try, and is at heart an anarchist.
Honest men, good citizens and
patriots should make it point TO
brand the political liar for what
he is, and should let his fellow

A SUGGESTION.
Communicated

| do not wish to criticise the
members Of our community. But
that ! may offer some suggestion, |
call your attention to the numerous
petty crimes that have been perpe-
trated III our community in the las:
few weeks 1t is probable thai they
are the work Of very few indi-
VidualS, b nj even so we should
recognize our responsibility. They
are as we have made them, or, per-
hapS, as We have allowed them TO
become. If we allow things to go
on. pen, some one will graduate
from among us TO the pcnitentiary
or to the gallows. And we will
have trained them for that thing
Most certainly, being a Christian
community, we know that we are
our brothers keeper. Our trouble
is that We want to be his keeper in
our particular way-and our way
has been a failure.
In the first place we have pro-
VIdcd no way for our boys and girls
TO spend their stored-up energy.
Boys and girls cannot merely sit
and twiddlc their thumbs. Nor is
preaching to them the only way to
reach their souls and minds. We
preach to them on Sunday. when
we can get them in church. and
then let the devil find something
for them to do all the rest of the
time, for he certainly can and does
Hnh something for idle hands 10
10 And at the same time habits
that should help them to become
strong men and women should be
formcd-and would be formed I'M
der proper surroundings and condi-
honS-theN are left to themselves
and The devil
Other communities have seen the
danger OF such things. They have
provided means for reaching out
after the young people and bringing
them together under conditions that
develop The best in them. In The
town where ! am at present located
The church has a gymnasium, and
into ii gathers its boys and girls
and it SuperintcndS their social ac-
tiVitics pd relations. 1t not only
encourages all sorts of athletics as
the proper and necessary safety
valve by providing the gymnasium
but il provides instructors i'm ath-
letiCS.
The result? Why the church is
holding its boys and girls in line
and is building them into strong
men and women. The church is
making itself the central thing i'm
their lives. They 60 TO church on
Sunday, and they 80 TO church on
weekday evenings. Their play
times are not mere idle times, nor
are they harmful and sinful times.
] know that we have certain
fixed ideas in the old town. But
religion is life, else il is mere
formalism. A religion that does
not reach into the lives of the bows
and girls OF community and mould
them into good men and women is
failure. and a thing Of mere self
SaiiSfaCtion.
Lcwisburg is not holding young
men. Lcwisburg is not max ing her
self attractive to her young people.
She is letting them go elsewhere to
una their amusemcntS and life.

he FARMERS
AND THE RAILROADS.


The Oklahoma Farmers Union ii
entirely consistent in its stand con
corning the railroad brotherhoods
plap for government ownership OF
the railroads. In resolutions adopt.
ed at their meeting at Clinton, the
members of the farmers union pur
forward this proposition:
eff congress in it's wisdom
sees fit to give these railroad
pen their demands, we ask
that congress shall also buy all
OF the farms in the United
States, with their equipment,
and employ all of the farmers
to operate them, paying to the
farmers wage equal to two
thirds of the hourly wage that
the average railway employee
receives; and then sell all farm
products to the consumer at
cost"
The alternative proposition of the
farmers is just as reasonable as that
advanced by the railroad unions. In
fact, more reasonable, because in
the case of the government owner
ship of farms, the product would be
sold to the consumer at cost; where
is the railroad unions propose that
he railroads be run at profit and
hat they be given large share of !
he profits. In their proposal, the |
armers agree to give all the profits
rom the farms to the public and
till be content with an hourly wage
quail to two-thirds of what is paid
he average railway employee.
Of course, the farmers are really
ot so selfish as to insist that the
masses of the people go heavily into
ebt to buy the farms and insure the
armers higher wage. They simply
roposed-and justly-that IL the
eople bought the railroads for the
ailway workers, they also should, as
matter Of fairness, buy the farms
or the farmers.
While presenting their alternative
roposition, in order to show by
the injustice of the rail-
Dad brotherhoods' plan, the Okla
oma Farmers Union at the same
me went on record as being oppos-
to any form of government owner
Zip of railroads.
