We wanted a change
and we got it.

When Woodrow Wilson went into
office as President in 1918, the esti-
mated wealth of the United States
was $3.50, 600. 600 600; when he retired
at the end Of eight years it was $500,
OOO0OO,0OO a gain of 1915, 600. .00O. 900.
The present estimates wealth of
United States is $225, OOO,Oo0,Oo6, sho-
wing a decrease of $75. 600, ,O0O, 900 in
fifteen months Republican admin
istration has been in power.
These figures were recently state
by Senator King Dem, Utah, upon
the floor of the Senate. They are
approximately correct.
The greater part of this loss has
been sustained by the fsrmers of
this country in land values, agri-
cultural products and live stock val
ues, although part of his loss has
fallen upon every industry aud nusi-
ness and upon every form of prop
erty values.
All the arguments that can or will
be made by Republican speakers
cannot wipe out or materially change
these figures. They are concrete
illustration within the understanding
of everybody of what 1t means in the
way of prosperity to have Demo-
cratic administration and what II
means in the way of disaster to have
a reactionary Republican adminis-
tration. Mississippi Sun.

LIONS WEEKLY MEETING
PEPPY AND PROFITABLE

The weekly luncheon OF the Lions
Club. last Thursday. was a very en-
thusiastic and profitable one. Some
very interesting and forceful COM
munications from District Governor
A. Baker of Cheyenne were read. as
was some interesting extracts from
a letter from Cub O'Gorman. who is
at present taking a postgraduate
course at Lincoln, Neb.
The Club Constitution and BY
Laws were amended to suit local
existing conditions.
The outstanding feature of the
luncheon. however. was an address
by L. f. Armstrong. Mr.. Arm
strong's topic was "Why Do We Not
Get More Business From the Oil
Fields" His subject vas very ably
and c~onvincingly handled, and at its
conclusion steps were taken to i'm
mediately act on the suggestions put
forward. and to invite the co-opera-
ton of all other civic organizations.
The club owe the success Of its
musical program to the piano play
ing OF Maurice Armstrong. who was
a visitor with them. The club is
surely forging ahead and is getting
down to real business that will have
a f~ar-reaching effect In the COM
munity. Sheriff A. A. Sanders was
taken into the fold at this meeting.
and from now on the Lions oar will
have not only more pep. but also au-
thority back Of 1t.
