OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Sept.
l1S.-The State legislature Of Okla
honna win assemble in special SEES
sion either late this week or early
next week regardless Of military
81 other edict or environment. This
statement is made upon unin-
peachable authority.
Sixty Agree to Meet.
Hundreds of kilograms passed be-
tween legislators yesterday and last
night. BY 10 o'clock sixty Of 1Os
members of the lower house had
signified their intention Of attend
| ing the extraordinary session and
the information given international
News Service was that the senate
was in a majority in agreement to
be present.
Leaders of the legislative move
ment to defy Governor Walton's
threat of incarceration In jail de-
clined to commit themselves re-
garding the assembly's procedure
after gathering, nor would any
hermit himself to discuss impeach
ment possibilities. Declaration
simply was made that the legis-
lature would investigate thoroughly
conditions that have resulted in
martial law for Oklahoma.
Meeting Place Unknown.
Where the legislature will as
semble is unknown, preliminary
arrangements being contingent, it
was reported, on winning of var
| ious members consent to attend.
AS guardsmen have been placed by
| the governors orders at the cap
| itol chamber doors to prevent
| solons from gathering there, 1t is
surrnised that the session will open
in a leading hotel, to be adjourned
to some other place should neces
/ sity arise.
Bayonet invasion Of Oklahoma
City, the State capital, brought out
| a bitter denunciation of Governor
| Walton last night by Ross M
Lizard, counselor in the city az
ministration, when Walton was
mayor, and now senator from this
| district.
1--WE are as peaceful and law
abiding and fine q citizenship as
Unveils anywhere in America, Vet
1--WE are being caricatured to the
world as a lawless, rioting, reck-
LESS mob" declared Senator Lizard.
1.-THE governor is responsible for
this condition.
LAS soon as he became governor
he began arraying class against,
class, organization against organiza-
| ton, church against church. He
threatens us with Jail If we do
attempt to convene, but I'm con-
| ftdent no one fears the outcome.

The State of Universal Insolvency.

Investigation into the status of the
finances of the Republic OF China has
revealed the fact that the nation is
insolvent-cannot pay her debts-can-
not pay even the interest on her debts
Inability to pay principal Off or inter-
est on debts is an almost universal
state among the governments OF the
old world. This condition is a growth
of a quarter century in cumulative
accentuation 1t is the harvest of the
paintings Of many years OF waste and
debt making. The world has slowly
drifted into a state OF universal IN
solvency. Good judges of world IL
nances are coming reluctantly to the
conclusion that the only remedy open
to these debt-ridden states is repudla-
ton. Germany's debt in her dishon-
ored currency, issued by the trillions
of marks, is greater than the whole
world could pay. When to the gov
eminent debts there is added in the
compilation the bond issues and stock
issues of corporations, the property
mortgages given for loans, the state,
county and municipal and school
debts secured by bonds, and the total
if it could be arrived at would chai-
lenge credence. One financial writer
has computed the grand total at $500
billions of dollars for the world, but
this was previous to the emission of
the trilliard of German marks. The
property of the world, real and per
sonal, is not sufficient to liquidate its
debts at par Initiation of labor and
commodity values is a blind move
ment of society to reestablish an econ
omic equilibrium. But the world is
bankrupt and every clear-headod
economist knows this to be the situa-
tion.-Burlington Post.

Money "Wasted" ON Advertising.

A store in MarshalltOWn took II
pages of advertising space in recent
issue of the Tiraes-Republican. That
store is always large advertiser, and
it's testimony as to the value of ad
vertising must be taken as the result
of large experience. Every newspa-
per man knows lot of merchants
who have advertised very little anu
yet know a lot more about adpertis-
ing. Some are wise enough to look
at the sky and determine from the
meteorological aspect whether an adj
vertisement will pay. Others find
that it never pays to advertise in q
paper that differs from them in poll
tics or opinions. And the catalogue
houses send their catalogues to demo-
Gratis and republicans, wet and dry
rich and poor, black and white, young
and old, Catholic and Protestant,
pious and goddess, rain or shine, hot
or cold. What a waste the MARSHALL
town firm and the catalogue houses
are making! The fellows who are
gradually fizzling out in a business
way could give them advice that
would save them many thousands of
dollars. OF course, the MarshalltOWn
store and the catalogue house are
making big money, but just think how
much they could make if they did not
waste SO much in advertising! The
owl fell rs feet from the top of tree,
and the man on the ground said he
had wasted his ammunition because
fall would have killed it-Knoxville

The HOmely Little Items in the
Country News Columns.

This is the time of year when the
neighborhood news items in the daily
and weekly papers of the midwest
record the news that Miss Bessie
Smith. of District "a, is assisting Mrs
Jones with her homework during the
harvest.
On the front pages of the same
papers black headlines flash, to the
world the story of the opening OF har-
vest in county after county as the
yellow crest of the wave of ripenlng
grain creeps westward. Organized Ia
Dor agencies, intertouching from state
to state, direct the army of bronzed
workers who follow the yellow wave,
sending fifty men here, a hundred
there, in response to hurried te1e-
graphed calls. This, too, is told in
the first page stories. And the read
ing public, which thrills to the thing
which makes black headlines, grants
it's instructive respect to the bronzed
army whose Drawn helps in the job OF
gathering in the worlds bread.
The little item in the country news
column thrills nobody. Bessia's
friends are interested, perhaps; ana
Mrs. Jones' neighbors are glad to
KNOW SQ6 Is 10 nave uGIp, Will oCFCh
extra men to cook for, and the Jones
baby cross with his first teeth. But
Bessie and Mrs. Jones are privates,
too, in the great harvest army. They
represent the unheralded division
that tolls long hours in little hot
kitchens to provide sustenance for the
workers advancing over the wide,
stumbled fields. Up at daylight, gath
ering garden produce, shoes wet with
the early dew; Smelling mountains OF
peas, peeling piles of potatoes, string
ing beans without number, frying
chickens; standing on blistering feet
in the afternoon heat to wash inter
minable dishes to be filled and wash
ed again after sunset-they, too, are
doing their part in the midwest's gl-
gantic summer job.
Not all the drama of harvest is told
in the first page headlines. In those
little homeIy items in the country
news column is the rest of the story

Is the Sleeve. Holder Coming Back?

Attempts to convince the country
that President Coolidge is a man OF
the people by picturlng him in awk-
ward poses on hay rakes and other
farm implements will fall of their
purpose. In spite of these pictures,
however, we know that Calvin is a
plain, unassuming commoner, for one
OF the pictures, which he is holding
noe the wrong way, reveals the fact
that he wears old-fashioned sleeve
holders, the very sort that most OF our
wives won't tolerate at all. II the
power of his example results in re-
turn of this useful bit of masculine
wearing apparel President Coolidge
will soon become SO firmly intrenched
with henpecked husbands, whose
wives insist on making shirt sleeves
six inches too long, that nothing on
earth can prevent his nomination and
election next year.-Paris (Mo.) APP

FORD SAYS BIG CITIES
ARE BREAKING DOWN

JudsOn WeIliver in an interview
with Henry Ford, published in the Re
Of Reviews, quotes the fivver mag
nate in this way:
"A few decades ago, there were To-
cal Touring mills in the small towns.
Then came patent processes, big
mills, consolidation. The little mills
were shut down. Now they are max
ing small four-mill plants that VIII
produce the same flour, in very small
establishments; and we shall be re-
turning presently to the old system OF
the local mill, supplying the local
market That will cut out another
big item of waste transportation.
"The new era will see a great re-
distribution of industry back to the
country. This country has got to live
in the country; industry must be
taken back to the country; small
cities and towns should supply more
of their requirements, diversity their
industries, enable local capital to fl
nance their business, and thus keep
it in the financial control of the peo-
pie who have the greatest interest in
its success. Financing industry is all
wrong; the thing to do with industry
is to run it; under the management
of the people who own it and who
stay on the job.
Make every community as nearly
independent as possible. The great
modern city is an abnormal develop
ment 1t tends to break down under
it's own weight. 1t is socially bad and
economically unsound. You can see
the evidences of this, in the acute
housing problem of cities, and in the
breakdown of municinal facilities.

TEARS. IDLE TEARS

Tears, idle tears, I know not what
they mean,
Tears from the depth of some divine
despair
Rise in the heart, and gather to the
eyes,
In looking on the happy Autumn
And thinking of the days that are no
more.
Fresh as the first beam glittering on
a sail,
That brings our friends up from the
underworld,
Sad as the last which reddens over
That sinks with all we love below the
So sad, so fresh, the days that are no
more.
All, sad and strange as in dark sum-
mer dawns
The earliest pipe of half-awakend
birds
To dying ears when unto dying eyes
The easement slowly grows a glim-
mering square;
So sad, so strange, the days that are
no more.
Dear as remembered kisses after
death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy
feign'd
On lips that are for others; deep as
love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all
regret;
o, death in life, the days that are no
more.
Alfred Tennyson.
