crime Of the first magnitude" by Rep
resentative c. H. Randall OF Cali
forria, z member Of the congressional
party touring the Orient. who came
here today, aboard the army trans
port Great Northern, on his way to
the United States. you will find
practically every member Of the con-
gressional of the same mind" he
said. After seeing the Philippines,
it was our almost unanimous verdict
that they are not ready for inde-
pendence.
ut would be crime of the first
magnitude to cast these people adrift.
The better educated Filipinos who are
not politicians are practically unani-
nous in their opposition TO independ.
encc.
'The development of the Philippine
Islands is stagnated because OF the
lack of capital, due to uncertainty OF
the status of the future government.
"I am unalterably opposed to sur.
rendering the Philippine Islands to
other than American jurisdiction for
these reasons and another reason
fraught with profound omen to the
United States and the entire Orient.
Thoughtful men are In semi-torror
nt the prospect Of Japanese domina.
ton Of Siberia, China, Korea and the
Philippine Islands, If the United
States releases them later"
Randall said he had cabled Attorney
General Palmer urging that prohibi-
ton be extended to the Philippines.

A Democratic Opinion

Texas has the finest opportunity
of any state in the union to elect
statesman instead of a politician
this year for governor" said William
D. Potter of this city today. Joseph
w Bailey" said Mr.. Potter, "is not
in the ordinary politician class, he is
statesman, he is one Of the really
big men of the world and Texas has
an opportunity to get man like
him for governor"
But the thing that disgusts me IL
that politicians are elected to office
to the exclusion Of men who are
really statesmen. To be elected to Of
flee a man must find out what the
people think and get in line with
them and stay in line, no matter what
sacrifices are made and Mr. Bailey
is not that kind of fellow. For that
reason he is not popular with the
man who thinks he is politician.
MI Bailey does his own thinking, he
has developed wonderful intellect, and
is able to render Texas a service
corresponding with his intellect II the
people will but give him chance"
Mr.. Potter formerly lived In Gaines
Vile which Is Mr.. Bailey's old home
town and he Is loyal to the former
senator and would like TO see him
elected governor OF Texas.

Aftermath of Killing of

Months Ago

Bill Kyle was shot five times last
night by Lula Brown, and he Is
now In the Hardy sanitarium in a very
precarious condition with small hopes
OF his recovery.
The shooting was the outcome Of
a killing which took place early last
spring when it is alleged that Kyle
shot and killed Dave Holley, father
of the Brown woman.
Kyle was arrested for the alleged
crime and given a preliminary hear
ing before the county judge who
held him without bond. A habeas
corpus proceeding resulted in his being
released on 500 bond pending his
trial, which was set for the next term
Of district court.
Kyle was walking on Main street
near the Fair store last night about
$3.50 o'clock when he was met by Mrs.
Brown and the shooting began.
The woman was placed under ar
rest by Officer Short and is being
held pending the action of the coun-
ty attorney, who will withhold action
awaiting the outcome of kyle's in
juries.
DR.. Hardy stated this morning that
Kyle's condition is serious, four or
the shots having entered the abdo-
men, one penetrating the bladder.

some Of the objections" which have
been urged against American partici-
patton in the league of nations, was
made today by Secretary Baker OF
the war department. speaking before
the Ohio state democratic convention.
Outside Of Partisan Feeling
When the suggestions based on
partisan feeling have been swept
aside" Mr. Baker said there remain
but two or three points which really
deserve serious consideration. The
most important Of these is that which
is addressed to article ten of the
covenant, which article, the president
has said, is the heart of the whole
matter. Since Senator Lodge and
Senator Harding have both repudiated
the Lodge reservations, for which
they both voted, it does not seem like
ly that these particular reservations
will figure in the campaign except
illustrations Of the tactics used to
defeat ratification of the treaty

hinged upon Article 10. Mr. Baker
devoted himself to discussion of that
section Of the covenant, saying that
he did not believe that there could

"Those who crticise Article TO-" he
said 'inisread into it some sort Of
fear that it places the military power
Of the United States at the disposal
Of the council Of nations and will

DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIG GN
BEGINS WHEN cox Al D
ROOSEVELT CLUB OPENS
HEADQUARTERS TUESDAY

The CoxRoosevelt club opened head
quarters in the Eddleman building
Tuesday morning, with a corps OF as
sistants, beginning the work of com
piling record Of every democratic
voter in the county TO be used on
election day to get out every vote in
every precinct.
Ii is quite q task to get this rec.
ord, but sufficient help will be en-.
ployed to do so as rapidly asp ossible.
The local club is being assisted by
democrats in every precinct who are
in the general election.
There seems to be a little rivalry
already started as TO which precinct
in the county will register 100 per
cent perfect on election day, by get
ting every democrat voter to the
polls. This promises to be an inter-
esting game, and the precinct leader
who succeeds in accomplishing this
task will no doubt be gratefully re-
membered by the party in the future.
Enrolment is going on every hour
now and the club bids fair to be
the largest in point of membership
of any in southern Oklahoma.
President Carock is getting his
various committees to work and he is
greatly encouraged over future pros
poets of the club. He stated today
that he felt sure that all his plans
would fully mature and when they
do, he says Carter county will set
mark for other democratic counties
in the state TO emulate.
Regular meeting of the club will
be held at the courthouse next Mon
day night The meetings will be held
at the courthouse until the club mem
bership becomes so large that the dis
trict courtroom will not accommodate
them, when the assemblies will be
transferred to Convention Hall.
