OKLAHOMA FARMERS PRAYER

Oh! Lord Calvin Coolidge l am only
a poor Oklahoma Farmer. Thou know
est that when wheat was $500 per
bushel, pork 20 cts. per pound and
farm products and garden sass in
proportion under wisconsin, had
plenty of flour, sugar, cake, pie, and
sich like. But | was not satisfied, l
wanted change, and / got it, wore
a Harding Coolidge badge, an Oklaho-
ma Senator Harold button, and ought
to have worn a Multiplying, Seceeding
South Carolina Senator Dial button,
but Thou knowest l was faithful in
all things to the g. o. T.
Even SO Thou knowest that l looked
for the dawning of new day when
the price of corn would pay for husk-
ing and cribbing.
Dear Lord Cal, three years and
three months have come and gone,
never to return, and l am too poor to
buy Rockefeller or Sinclair oil for my
little Ford. But I still wear Hard
ingCoolidge badge, but presto please
pass l wear my badge on my
we'll. the seat of my overalls How
ever. we have many things to be
thankful for.
We praise thine exalted carcass for
the nice large bonus TO the X. X.
companies. enabling them to raise
freight rates, also the 25%e rebate on
income and surtax to the very rich
taxpayers. Yes, Cal, Glory to Stingy-
ness, give it back to them, so there
shall be no funds available for the
Bursum Bonus and P. o. clerks and
carriers increase bills, for it gives
you an excuse for your three for a
nickel vetoes.
In conclusion teach U.S. Lord Cool

Gunnison and Pitkin
Items Culled From Gunnison Empire and Pitkin Miner

A party of young folks consisting
| of Misses Violet and Lillian Bates and
Viola Lyons, Byron Hewitt and Noel
Hamm evidently headed for Wild
wood Park Monday evening, met with
quite an accident. They were rum
+, ming about thirty miles an hour in a
Ford truck without lights and be-
tween the two Baldwin tracks in west
town they missed the culvert with
two wheels. The ditch is quite wide
but because of the speed they were
running, the truck did not turn over
but went on across the ditch. Miss
Lyons was thrown out and her hand
cut. No others were injured, but all
were badly frightened. The truck
went back to town with radius rods
bent, one flat tire and the windshield
broken
There is one advantage to the ne
glect of the Waunita Springs road
that does not occur to those who are
compelled to use it. That is that no
one who drives over it will ever for
get to throw the iron into the men
who have left the most generally used
local road in the county in all but
impossible shape. 1t is a mighty
good campaign argument for getting
rid of the men who have wasted our
money on booze parties and garages.

A Telegram received Tuesday by
Walter Truesdale announced, the fa-
tai shooting of his brother-in-1aw,
Fred Dobler, in Montrose county. He
left at once for Montrose4 The kill
ing seems to have been extremely
vicious and without any reasonable
provocation. The trouble originated
over line fence and the victim died
in few hours after being shot. THIS
murderer gave himself up and is in
Jail awaiting trial.
We regret to report that Mrs.
Katherine Mahoney, who has been
quite i'll for some time is not improv-

HONOR
BY THOMAS A. CLARK
Dean of MeE, University of
Illinois.

There is apparently in the minds of
many people peculiar Significance
in being put upon ones honor, what
ever that may mean, and peculiar
freedom from responsibility when not
upon honor. An act may be recog-
nized as Objectionable or even as actu-
ally, evil, but many people feel no
computations of conscience in COM
hitting it, unless they are upon their
honor, Then they would lose q leg
rather than offend.
| remember not long ago having a
conversation with young fellow with
reference to certain immoral things of
which he had been guilty. He agreed
with me ultimately that if the past
could be forgotten he would not in the
future again offend. 1t was not long,
however, until l discovered that he
had broken his agreement -
did you not promise me-" / asked,
that you would not do this thing
AGAIN."
why, believe l did" was his re-
ply, "but l did not promise upon my
honor"
2 A few years ago boy came to my
office and asked me to lend him thirty
five dollars. He was playing in hard
luck, he was out of work, and if he
could borrow the sum of money for
which he asked he could get to a dis
tant' city and find a job. He would
pay the money back in three months,
he said. let him have it, and not
hearing from him for a year or two,
/ wrote him.
the money of you," he finally replied
to my letter, "and so l am under no
legal obligation to pay" And he
has never done so. He was not on
his honor, you see.
1t is curious thing this honor. I'm
der certain conditions a man feels
bound by it. He must be honest and
truthful and upright. He must insist
upon honesty and uprightness in 9TH
ers. Then he leaves a room or turns
a corner, and the whole situation
changes. He may lie or practice de-
ceit or even steal. and a few think the
worse of him and he not anything the
worse of himself.
1t is false honor, this have been
describing. Real honor is based upon
principle, it is the outgrowth of char
acter. 1t is not Influenced by time or
situation or circumstance. 1t is part
of mans everyday life; it controls
and directs his action wherever he is,
and it needs no oral or written express
sion to make it binding.

am entitled to reelection without OPP

| have endeavored to administer
the laws fairly and impartially, in a
business-like manner, and with a
minimum of cost. have endeavored
to treat all our people fairly in max
ing appointments, by giving the diff
ferent political parties representa-
ton, and above all by appointing men
who enjoy the confidence of their fell
lowmen for uprightness and fairness.
have devoted my time to the dis
charge of the duties of my office,
and have had no other business or
calling to interfere with this work.
| have had no favorites to serve
nor enemies to punish, and this is an
important factor in the administra-
ton of law and justice. l have not
played politics, built political ma
chimes, nor fomented fractional strife.
Partisan politics in the judiciary is
utterly incompatible with a Just adj
ministration of the laws. Grand ju-
ries in our county, and other coun-
ties of the circuit, have commented
with approval, upon the fact that our
courts are free from politics. All
right thinking people know the great
Importance of this fact in the admin
istration of justice.
Since l have been your judge, |
have endeavored to reduce crime by
inspiring a more wholesome respect
for law among our people. 1t is we'll
to punish crime but it is infinitely
better to prevent it. 1t is right to
enforce the laws but it is far better
to have them obeyed. This can be
accomplished only when there is a vi
taliZing sentiment among our people
for the unfolding of our laws and a
readiness on their part to discharge
the duties of good citizens. | have
labored for Improvement along these
lines and it is gratifying to know
that measurable success has been and
is being realized. Our conditions are
improving, crime in general is on the
decrease, and there is an awakening
of the public sentiment throughout
the circuit that makes crime unpop-
ular and more difficult.
These are the things that l have
stood for and will continue to stand
for. Good people over the circuit
have shown their appreciation by ex-
pressing to me their full satisfaction
with my administration and by pledg-
ING their support for my re-e1ection
And to you Cobb county people,
