TUE TRUTH ABOUT THE cownoy.

The Western hemisphere has produced no
moro romantic type Of cltlzcn than the cowboy.
Ito has been canoulzed by both poet ana
painter while playwright ana author have col
loboratcd. one moment 10 place n halo above
hts head the next to place horns upon that
head. For generations American youth has
found It's greatest delight In playing cowboy
and Indian.
There was tlmo not 40 very long ago when
tho cowboy was tho familiar OF folk on the
frontier. They were known young men of
more or less adventurous spirit who delighted
In tho saddle and tho great outdoors but IN no
peculiar sense different from the other folk Of
the frontier. Tho exaggerated type which the
romancor ana the screen portsys II as novel to
those who have lived on the frontier all their
lives as to the European tcndcrfoot
on the screen the cowboy IL easily discovered
because OF his dress. lie s numbered with
chaps. impossible hat. two guns, the ublq-
ultous bandana kcrchlcf about his neck and
spurs which mako walking impossible. Yet
such n cowboy In the days when the vocation
was tho means Of earning bread aud butter
would have excited the ribnd rdculc Of
genuine cowboy camp.
when cowboys were cowboys performing
great constructive service as they pllotcd the
Texas herds north to roadscnd In Kansas. there
loading for the eastern markets; or when tend
ing the herds range, rounding up brands
and making preparation for tho annual drive
north they were not hamperod by either too
much hardware or picturesque uniforms. Such
guns as cowboys affected and always they did
affect a gun. weighed Approximately three
pounds. one was not only enough. but was the
limit save for the occasional tough who boast
ed his two-gun proclivltles and who usually
succumbcd speedily 20 the artistry OF n single
gun man.
The practical cowboy had but one distinguish
able peculiarity: he was nearly always bow
legged, a conformation acquired from constant
horse riding. In all other respects he was
the typical frontorsman, dctesting sham pos
sessed Of courage most times, but yet occasion

virtue, yet again immoral and immoral
The truth about the cowboy has at last been
presented in a book. The Cowboy" by Phillip
Ashton Rollins. (Charles scrIbner's sons). This
authoritative work comes almost too late be-
cause the cowboy has disappeared excepting in
Hollywood but It does serve to embalm In the
history OF tho republic an accurate record Of a
vocation and a type that existed not by design
but which developed IN response TO sheer neces-
sity's call It is well worth reading. especially
by those who have been familiar with cowboys
during the period when tho ranges Of the
southwest were being transformed into farms
and modern hamlots

REGISTER WITHOUT DELAY.

However unjust the action OF tho election
board IN requiring All cltaons 10 rcrcgatcr the
easiest way out OF the difficulty now ia for
everyone to rcgistcr with as littlo delay ns
possible. II Is easy to prove by every law OF
logic and reason that the election board cannot
arbitrarily dlsfrnnchse qualified voters by log
islating them out Of precinct. but tho debate
would accomplish nothing worth while.
Here are the facts: The election board for a
reason or for reasons known only to itself,
has Issued the registration order: the precincts
have been defined and the registration officers
named 10 days have been set apart for re-
registration.
The world urges all citizens 10 comply with
the order by prcscnting themselves without
delay at the registration place in their precinct
for the purpose OF qualifying for the primary
and election. Some day perhaps there viii bc
m election IN Tulsa when the precinct lines will
not he tampercd with, when voters may go 20
the polls and exercise their franchise without
confusion OF any kind.
But for this campaign prudence requires that
all voters comply with the election boards
whim and get new certificates. The law is
clear. II there IL any disposition anywhere to
cmbarrnss qualified voters under the law The
q t*ncs should he reported instantly.

thoy, indeed As Secretary Hughes stated at
Washington the other day, There are no legal
obstacles to trade with Russia" II any Amer

markets OF the world are open to her. Any
thing that sho needs and can pay for Is freely

The plain fact A that the only obstacles that
exist to trade with Russia are those which have
been created by the soviet government Its
measures have stranged Russian production,
broken down Russian transportation, made
worthless Russian currency and destroyed
credit. Yet It whlmpcrs that other govern
monis Will not enter Into commercial relations

ment with the sovcts last year, but it, results
were almost nil The skilled manufacturers
and exporters of England found that the RUS

worth seeking TO enter.
Mr.. Lloyd George spoke the blunt truth
to the Russian delegates at Genoa where he
told them that the rest OF Europe could get on
without Russia better than Russia could get on

II was wonderful afternoon,

tcresed him. and the wonder Of
being beside him, thrilled her. The
flowers along the roads, woOdsy
places; the smell OF the country so
new TO her. delighted Gertie and che
really talked well.

rolled swiftly along the smooth
road. They had just passed a little
white cottage set back In "A yard In
which there were old trees, giant

Perhaps she can some day! Tim

making plans to help Tim. That

good one.
"Oh. yes, Tim is smaIt. He sells
more papers than any of the other

passed high in everything, and so
did Jennie" once get Gertie
started upon this subject OF fami-
ly II was hard to stop her.
This time they had driven in a
different direction. so when they
stopped at an inn set on a high
bank overlooking the Hudson river.
It meant a now fairyland to Gertie.
How nice he was TO choose a diff
ferent place. She would have moro
10 tell her mother ana the children,
and Lilly. They knew all about the
other place-she had had to repeat
the description of 1t, and her din
ner, SO often.
I'm hungry I'm spite OF all the gin

Tom asked as the waiter stood ex-
pectant beside them.
I'm hungry too" she smiled up
at him.
what about a steak? 4 nice
thick juicy one, waiter!" she nodded
approval, and some creamed po-
tatoes. new peas and. while we are
waiting, bring us some sliced or
anges. Have them cold, We WI
order what else we want later"
There was an orchestra playing
soft music In one OF the large din
Ing rooms OF the inn. They were
TO be served on the wide porch fac
Ing the river. Gertie was entranced
with the view, the place-and Tom.
with a happy sigh she gave herself
up TO enjoyment She pushed into
the back OF her mind the haunting
thought that he was going; tina;
after that she would he alone.
That was the way It had seemgd
TO her-ehe would be alone!
Dinner took a long time to eat,
they had so much to say. After
ward they wandered about the
grounds for a bit. then started for
home. Gcrtie had spoken Of her
desire 10 nave a better education
