No GOVernOrShip
For Mine

My good old friend the Gov
ernor of Oklahoma was in to see
me at the theatre the other night. |
had just had humorous mention as q
a candidate for that position, as
they wanted to revive the Populist
Party with me as the Standard
Bearer.
Well, the Governor showed me
what had happened to friend of
his who had been defeated for Gov
ernor in our state, so he discouraged
me. | won't accuse him of doing it
purposely, but he did. His friends
campaign expenditures were as fol-
lows:
~ kissed 5000 babies; helped AZ
voters thrash wheat; shook hands
with the entire State; smoked 5000
sacks of Bull Durham; cut p
cords of wood; helped brand 5000
calves; spayed 1000 of them; was
sprinkled s times in Methodist
Churches; totally immersed in cold
water in muddy creeks three times
by the Baptist; went to confession
in every Catholic Town; paid dues
to II Synagogues; charter member
of the Holy-Rollers; listened to
800 get-together Kiawanis, Lions,
and Rotary speeches; bought sheet
and pillow slip in every Ku Klux
Klan in the State; and then | was
defeated.
"'Bulr Durham was my sole
satisfaction not only during, but
after election. 1t is the only thing
that stayed with me-"

P.S. There will be another piece
in this paper soon. Look for it.

UNIQUE TECHNIQUE
 OF FRENCH WOMEN
Follow Own Methods in Lobby
 ing for the Vote

Paris, Jan. 23 Rt-F'rench suffra- gists, with q method as chic as French miliners, are putting new touches to the technique of equa suffrage campaigning.
 Petting. not picketing, summar !zes the policy of the feminists, al- though they see the.r long expected cnfranchisement repeatedly post poned in the Senate by the press 0! the financial difficulties of tn, country.
 If, as they hope, French women are added 10 the 175,000, ,000 votin ; women of ( world as soon as q budget is finally balanced and the franc well on its way 10 stabiliZa ton, they will have conducted the most tranquil suffrage campaign that the world has seen. This de- spite the F'renchmal.'s reputation for highly explosive temperament, and volatility.
 This is no war of the seXes," said Mme. Leon Brunschvicg, president of the French Union of the Interna- tional Suffrage Alliance, to The AS sociated Press.
 ITO hcckle, aggravate and irritate the lawmakers now. when they are desperately striving to save the country from bankruptcy would not only injurc the cause of suffrage. but would iniure France"
 The activities of q major portion of the fomi 'at movement are d. rcctcd from the Paris study of Mmc. Brunschvicg. She is one of the prominent social workers of France Among her friends she counts manJ prominent politicians. She is the wife of noted professor Of philosophy at the Sorhonne, and the mother of three children.
 Suffrage leaders until short time ago believed that victory was within their grasp. It only remained for the S"rate to ratify bill grant ing women ual suffrage, bill al ready passed by the Chamber Of Deputies in 1919, when VI. Briand rnthusiastically supported it. Although there were certain diff ticIltios to he overcome in the form of q bloc of senators whom Mme. Maria Verone, president of the French League for Womcn's Rights, characterized as "a menace to re- form in France" the possibility for victory still was hopeful until minis tries started to crash, Until finances are settled, Mime. Ncrons said, French women have no hope of oh taining the vote.
 Mime. Vcrone heads an organiLa- ton of 200 affiliated groups throughout France representing many thousands of active suffra- Gists,
 Women of France also are oCcu- pied with preparations for the tenth congress of the International Suf. fragc Alliance, which will be heli here May 3h-June 6.
