THE POWER OF PROPAGANDA

When we think Of the word 'Propa.
ganda" in its most serious meaning,
we see the frightful snowfie Of
cold Russia. where the lean wolves
hungrily howl by the cottage Of the
lowly peasant and shiverinY humanity
gathers to prattle the accepted faith
Of blighting Bolshevism. We see the
secret agents Of Leinine and Trotzky
steal into every land to scatter the
teachings of anarchy and disintegra-
ton among the ignorant.
But there are many other kinds of
propaganda. some good and some bad
Every day the mails bring to the edi-
torial desk hundreds of lines OF pro-
paganda. 1t comes from both legiti-
mate and illeritimate sources. Some
gally firm wants advertisement, some
"nervy" individual seeks publicity.
some welfare society wills to reform the
degcnerated race Of men. some humane
organization requests the privilege of
using our pages TO sound the virtues
Of some flea-bitten hound. and what
not.
Wall Street cotton buyers are said
to have scattered the propaganda that
the price of cotton would rise later in
the year and therefore the farmer
should hold his cotton, yet statistics
say that we had an excess crop OF
100000 bales production. They want
ed to turn loose before the farmer
placed product on the market.
Propaganda elected Warren G. Hard.
ing to the Presidency. And, say the,
had good scatterers. too.
Propaganda cOnvenes with the legis.
| lature and gets by lots Of appropria.
| tion for smothered gratis and scandals
| But the greatest play propagandf
ever staged was the cry for a deflatioI
in prices. and like flash of light
ming they crashed earthward. Now
conditions are righting themselve!
through the self-same propaganda
When the man who has money cor
nered and hidden away believes tina
times are better and the worst ha
passed. he turns loose little: and n
does 1t under the influence OF propa
ganda.
So It Is good propaganda that q

MYSTERY MAN Is SOUGHT
~ THE nAMON CASE NOW

a travelling salesman of New York
furnished the latest mystery in the
Hamon case. Effort to learn his iden-
tity and his present whereabouts are
now being made. IL has developed, In
the belief that he has facts to disclose
which will make him the most impor-
tant witness in the trial Of Clara Smith
when she faces jury on the charge
of killing Jake Hamon.
There were only two eye witnesses
to the shooting which resulted in Ha-
mons death. One was the man now
dead and the other the woman charged
with his murder. Rut in the hotel room
adjoining that in which Hamon was
shot was man who is supposed to
have heard the quarrel which preceded
the tragedy.
The man mysteriously disappeared
after the shooting The page Of the
hotel register which recorded his name
Is said to be missing. All that is
known Of him Is that he registered
from New York and IL q travelling
salesman. 1t is charged that the in
fluential men who aided the accused
woman in her flight to Mexico are
responsible for his disappearance and
for the removal Of the page bearing
his name from the hotel register.
Although the defense is not seeking
the missing man as a witness, 1t was
| pointed out today that his story may
he more valuable to the accused wo.
man than to the prosecution. On the
| other hand. he may prove the witness
necessary to the state to make a strong
case.
