have estimated that in 1921 the boil
weevil ruined what would. have de-
veloped into enough cotton to make
6,277.000 bales in addition TO the
seed that would have been obtained
from the crop. When you think OF
all the time. labor and money ex-
pended in planting all this cotton
that is so quickly destroyed by this
insect. you begin 10 realize the tre-
mendous loss involved. II has been
estimated that in the last five years
close TO two billion dollars has been
lost through the damage done by the
boil weevil to the cotton crops. The
boil weevil is now found in all South
ern States where cotton is raised.
Numerous and various plans have
been tried by agricultural associa-
tons to destroy the boil weevil-thus
far all the efforts have been without
success. Recently, however, officials
OF the War Department have claim
ed that they have perfected a plan
by which they can exterminate the
boil weevil with poison gas such as
was used during the war. This gas
has already been successfully used
in killing beetles. gophers, rats, and
other pests and vermin. Right now

Alger Melton, Of Chickasha, former
state chairman Of the democratic party,
has come out in a statement against
the election Of Mr.. Walton as governor
in which he says: 'It is believed by
honest, lifelong democrats that a vote
for Walton is a vote to disrupt the
democratic party in Oklahoma; vote
to destroy democracy; vote to help
socialists elect their governor and ad-
vance their theories and policies; a
vote to put socialism in control Of
schools and institutions Of state and a
vote to place upon the people burden
which must be handed down to their
children and their children's children. ="
Melton is a real democrat and has stud
led the issues in this campaign-a man
trusted by democrats and a man whu
may be believed by democrats. He has
never evinced any socialistic tendencies
and has always been a straight party
man. and is therefore in position to
speak to the old line democrats of Ok.
lahoma. This is his statement Read
it and vote as your consciece dictates.

JUDGE ARTHUR C. SUTTON

Judge Arthur G. sutton, Republican
nominee for District Judge, is making
the race for a second term. Many
people adhere to the belief that the
judiciary should be taken out Of poll
tics, but Judge Sutton commands the
respect of so many people that in yot-
ing for him the electors do not consid-
er politics. A judge neither initiates
nor carries into execution and makes
application Of any political principle,
but simply applies the law as he finds
it written by the law making bodies Of
our country. II is matter well
known to the people Of this district
that the judge has enforced the law
fairly and impartially, and is held in
the highest esteem by the members Of
all parties. He comes before the vot-
ers with clean hands and a splendid
record, so much so that it is only on
rare occasions that anyone criticizes
his conduct as Judge or otherwise.
No part Of the district has been neg
leeted during Judge Sutton's S tenure of
Office and his integrity as a Judge re-
mains firmly and securely fixed in the
minds Of the people. "Guymon Tri-
bune.
This paper may further say that for
the first time in the history Of this
county District Court has continuously
been kept open and we have been Civ
en- court when needed. This office has
been so efficiently and capably filled
that the people do not want change.
Judge Sutton's name will appear on
the Republican State ticket? Do not
stamp the head Of any ticket and stop,
for you may then not vote for him.
BE certain to stamp a cross in the
square opposite his name. We cannot
afford to make a mistake on this vote
Look carefully to your ballot, and vote
for Judge Sutton. 1926 ll-2

If John Fields is elected governor Of
this state, it is going to be a great
boost for newspapers and for news
paper advertising against all forms of
publicity. John Fields is depending
almost entirely on the newspapers of
the state to put him and his principles
over. He is a newspaper man himself
and has the utmost faith in newspaper
men and advertising. This is perhaps
the first state campaign in the history
of this country where candidate has
put his faith in printers ink, and has
put his principles up to the people in
black and white. The money to pay
for this work has been contributed by
dribbles from the people, asked for in
coupon printed in every display ad;
these contributions range from l0cents
to SIS and are purely voluntary. The
actual cost in dollars and cents Of this
kind of campaign is less than 25 per
cent of the cost of campaigns conduct
ed as in the past The fact in itself is
evidence of that which the newspaper
breaches day in and day out-ADVER-
TISING DOES PAf BIG RETURNS.
The Beaver herald. [volume] (Beaver, O.T. [Okla.]) 1895-1923, 1922-10-26

Those who have diligently attended
all political speakings of supporters of
the mayor, and the candidate himself,
have wondered why there has been so
much said of national issues in a state
campaign. Since the Walton Campaign
Hand Book prepared for speakers only.
has been put into circulation that mat
ter has been settled. Read the last
sentance in the preface and you. will
find these words: I" and empha-
sis should always be placed upon the
fact that our present evils arise from
national politics alone" That throws
soma light on the fact that Pat Harri-
son. senator from Mississippi, said
when he arrived in the state that 81
will not mention the Shawnee plat
form, as ! know nothing about it. T"
And it sheds radiant glow on the fact
that Haskell talked national issues all
the time and will affect oil other speak
ers from the outside. The idea is, it
seems from the Hand Book, to make a
strenuous attempt to switch the issues
from the state TO the nation. But the
people will not be blinded by the ma
tional smoke screen. They have their
minds and speeches accordingly. John
Fields is discussing the things the peo-
pie want to know about, and opposi-
tion orators must come to the issue,
tho they so very mnch dislike il.
The Beaver herald. [volume] (Beaver, O.T. [Okla.]) 1895-1923, 1922-10-26

The mayor attempts in every speech
TO array the farmer against the mer-
chant and the banker. Why should the
farmer be against the banker and the
merchant? They have been his friends
up to date and stand ready now to tide
him over another year following bad
crops. Ask Mr.. Walton IL his friends,
Pat Nsgle, Dan Hogan, Oscar Amerin-
ger and William Madison Hicks. will
advance them money enough to carry
their families thru the winter if he
(Walton) is elected. Who is your
friend?
