MUST SAVE PART OF OIL FOR
UNITED STATES.

Washington, Aug. 3.-BeIief
that the United States must 90
into the oil business or take steps
to prevent other nations from mo-
nopOlizing the worlds oil supply,
is expressed by the department of
commerce in a report to the SEN
ate public lands committee, made
public tonight by Senator Phelan
Of California.
at appears that the British
government is definitely going
into the oil business" the depart
ment's report asserted. During
the war period it acquired two
thirds Of the stock of the Anglo
Persian Oil company. This com
pany has an exclusive concession
for oil exploitation throughout all
Of Persia except the five northern
provinces and has valuable con-
cessions in Mesopotamia and
other parts Of the world.
1T would seem imperative that
our government must take the
same course, or at least find a
wav of preventing, so far as pos
sible, the monopoly of future sour
ceS of oil supply by the nationals
of foreign countries"

IMPORTANT CHANGE IN
PRIMARY LAW,

The primary election law has
been changed by the Legislature
so as to eliminate the holding of a
second primary election. The
Donaldsonville Chief in it's last
issue, gives the following interpre,
tatlOn Of the new law:
In all cases where there is to be
nominated only one candidate for
a particular office, the electOr shall
indicate his first choice, and with.
out being required to Go 50, may
indicate a second choice, and bal
lots shall be printed accordingly.
If candidate receives a majority
Of votes Of the first choice, he shall
receive the nomination. In case
no candidate shall receive a ma
1orlty Of first choice votes, then
the nomination for such office shall
lay between the two candidates re
celving the highest number of first
choice votes, and the determina-
as between said two highest can
dldates receiving first choice votes
shall be by adding to their first
choice votes the second choice
votes they respectively received,
and the candidate as between
these two who received the great
est number of first and second
choice votes shall be declared
nominated; in other words, let US
suppose that A. B and C. are aspir-
ing for the same office, with one
to be nominated, further let us
suppose that 100 0tes were cast
in the election. A gets 40 first
choice and 30 second choice, B re-
ceiveS 35 first choice and so Sec
ond choice, and c gets % first
choice and 20 second choice. 1t
IS clear that no one has received
a majority Of first choice votes.
1t is equally clear that c., having
received the smallest number of
first choice, is eliminated and the
selection must be made between
a and B. Then A having received
40 first choice and 80 second
choice, has a total of 70 votes. B
has 30 first choice votes and so see
Ond choice, or a total of 50, and in
consequence receives the nomina-
ton.

Quarantining against Charlton
may help some, but little may be
gained from it unless horsefies
buzzards, dogs, etc, are also quar-
antined against, as they are ear
riers and spreaders of the infec-
ton. 1t is not transmitted direct
" from one animal to another, but
indirectly through the medium of
infected food (grazing), and
water, and through incubation
from the outside by infected horse
flies, and other blood sucking in
Sects. The most important thing
to quarantine is the Charlton in
fected carcass by burning, so as to
destroy the source Of infection
and prevent its being carried and
spread by the different carriers,
some of which we have mentioned.
The blood of the undestroyed
Charlton carcas is the main source
from which the disease is spread.

LEAGUE is BIG HANDICAP

In accepting the advice of Pres
ldent Wilson to make the League
of Nations the paramount issue of
the presidential campaign, Gov
ernor Cox is shOuldering a terrific
handicap, and one that NAV prove
fatal to his chances. Senator
Harding has seized the opportun-
lty to Join the issues right there.
realizing the advantage it will
give him. 1t is slowly getting to
be realized by the people that the
League Of Nations scheme is a
standing menace to the indepen-
dence Of America and therefore
radically dangerous. The League
covenant is a foreign substance in
the composition Of the peace trea-
tv and has no business there,
Peace could be arrived at on the
issues fought out during the war
and had the League covenant been
laid aside until peace was achieved
we would have been rid of war
and war effects long, long ago.
The League of Nations is an ideal
ism that never can be made to
work out in practical test for a
practical application of its princi-
pies would operate for the over
throw Of Democracy and the per-
petuation Of the empires and dy-
nasties as they exist today. 1t is
specifically agreed as a vital fac
tor in its operation. that the ter
ritOrial integrity Of all it's mem
bers must be maintained and pre-
served, in which maintenance and
preservation members are pledged
to cooperation. In other words,
the United States would be honor
bound to send its armies to Eng
land and Ireland and help in the
subjugation and enforcement Of
the domination of England over
ireland, should the Irish patriots
develop sufficient military
strength to secure their freedom
from England, or to Canada Or to
Australia, and so on. 1t is I'M
thinkable that an intelligent peo-
pie, capable, of self-government |
and DESTROYS of being free, should |
be compelled by superior force to
remain the unwilling subjects of
another people. The war was
fought out for democracy, ac-
cording to what we have been
told, yet the League of Nations
would become the strongest factor
in defeating democracy beyond
its present limitations. This gov
eminent has ever been committed
against entagling alliances, and
yet the League Nations would
bring about the most dangerous
form of an alliance, five per cent
altruistic and 80 per cent mill
taristic in nature and effect.
Making the League a paramount
issue Of the campaign is inviting
disaster for the Democratic ticket,
for American sentiment, so far as
has been evidenced, is overwhelm-
ingly against the League as it
now is constituted and composed,
is opposed to foreign alliances
and uncompromisingly in favor
of. the maintenance and extension
of democracy to all peoples of the
earth.-Gazette.
