| Washington, D. c. - Calling his at.
tention to Democratic statistics anC
records, the Republican Publicity AS
ISOLATION, through its president, Hon
Jonathan Bourne, Jr., says of William
Jennings Bryan's latest speech:
While directly paying compliments
to the intelligence Of the American
farmer Mr.. William Jennings Bryan
Indirectly intimates that tAey have
short memories and small powers of
reasoning. In an interview in Wash
| ington few days ago he said:
1.-The prospects Of the Democrats
| capturing Congress next November
are better than in many years. The
reaction against the Republican party
is founded upon the condition OF the
farmers who represent one-third OF
the voters of the country. They are
worse off now than in years, and are
blaming the party in power for their
condition
"Now il Mr.. Bryan will turn TO the
annual number Of the New York An
nalist, published by the New York
Times" an Independent Democratic
paper and noted for its reliable sta
tistical information, he will find that
the slump in the wholesale prices of
food commodities began early in June
1920. That was within a few weeks
after the Democratic administration
had adopted its new deflation pro-
gram az shown by the annual report
issued by Democratic officcaldim.
Early in June, 1920, the index num-
ber indicating the relative wholesale
prices Of food commodities stood att
1929. BY the middle of February, 1921, !
before the Republican administration
had come into power, the average of |
wholesale prices was indicated by the |
index number 1856. This was drop of |
IA points in a period Of about 7
months. During the period from the
middle Of February, 1921, to the end
OF December, 1921. the drop In the in
dex figure was from 1855 to 160. drop
Of rs points, in ten months.

PROPOSE FEDERAL LICENSE
TO HUNT MIGRATORY BIRDS.

Passage Of the New-Anthony bill TO
provide for Federal licenses to hunt
migratory birds and for the establish
ment Of game refugees and public
shooting grounds for such birds would
affect about 100000 American sports
men. the Bureau of Biological Survey,
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, estimates. The bill has been ia
vorably reported by the senate COM
mittee on public lands and surveys. In
the House the bill is in the committee
on agriculture.
The bill provides that each hunter
of migratory birds shall obtain fed
eral license, at a cost Of 81 for the
season, the licenses to be issued at
any postoffice in the United States.
Out of tn proceeds not less than 40
per cent. is to be spent by the Gov
eminent, through proposed Migra-
tory Bird Refuge Commission, in buy
ing or renting land suitable for the
establishment OF migratory game bird
refugees which would serve as breed
ing and feeding places for birds dur
ing the period Of their flight north,
or the close season, and as public
grounds during the open sea-
son. An additional As per cent. will
be used for the enforcement Of the Mi
gratory Bird Treaty Act and the Lacey
Act and the remaining ten per cent.
for expenses in issuing licenses and
other administrative expenses.
The bill provides that the Secretary
If Agriculture shall be chairman Of
he Attorney General, the Postmaster
General, and two members Of each |
House of Congress. Rules and regu-
atoms governing the administration

cordance with a plan which the
Times" adopted many years ago. The
figures were not compiled for political
but for industrial purposes.
| Furthermore, the official records
will show that Democratic policies
adopted during the war were such as
to limit the amount of profits farm
er could make, whereas there was no
limit placed upon the profits that
could be made by any other industry.
After having thus limited the profits
Of the farmer and at the same time
adopting policies which increased the
rates OF wages the farmer must pay
for his help and prices he must pay
for the commodities he must buy, the
Democratic administration adopted a
policy which made the farmer the
first sufferer from the deflation plan
which it adopted. The farmer was hit
by the Democratic administration in
both its initiation and its deflation pro-
grams.
I'm addition to this, Mr. Bryan will
find in the report of the Federal Re
serve Board for 1920, then under DEM
ocratic control, the information that
in that year farmers were borrowing
from the banks more heavily than
ever before and we're not only put
ting up their agricultural security as
collateral for loans, but, this not be-
ing sufficient, we're putting up their |
liberty bonds as we'll. That was many |
months before the Republican admin
elected.
"Al this is a matter OF record and |
It has been known to the farmers both
North and Soulful East and West-the
grain growers, the cattle men, the cot
ton producers. and the wood growers
at all stages of the proceedings.
"Mr. Bryan is not at all compli-
nentary to the intelligence Of these
Agricultural producers when he as
,erts that they hold the Republican
party responsible for the plight in
which they yfind themselves"

CAMP AT SULPHUR
OFFERED AUTOISTS

Ardmore motorists will be given
special favors at Sulphur this sum-
mer if they take advantage Of the
offer of splendid camp site on the
edge of the city recently offered by
the Chamber of Commerce.
Several weeks ago a number of
Ardmore motorists petitioned the Sui
phur chamber for site where they
could feel perfectly at home This
was taken under advisement and the
site offered last week.
1t is planned to name the camp
site "Ardmore" and let it stand as a
monument to this city. James Barron
Of the Ardmore Chamber of Commerce
believes that Ardmore furnished more
campers and visitors TO Sulphur than
any other city in the state, and it Is
probable the number will be increased
this season.
