VOLUME I
NORMAN, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1914.
NUMBER 301
This is the 1st Authorized Mid-Summer
Hoosier Cabinet Sale on the Hoosier $1 Plan
This mid-3ummer sale is authorized for the first time, because
ao many Hoosier agents were unable to get Hoosiers for their
spring sales, and many more could not get their full allotment.
But even now, only a limited number of Hoosier Cabinets can
be turned out of our new factory building in time for mid-
summer delivery—an average to each sale of less than twenty.
So only you who enroll early can count on delivery during the
hot months, when you need your Hoosier most.

OBSERVER.
Angered by the remark of|
Tom Moore, a Socialist farmer,1
that it was "d—n fellows like!
you that destroyed the Populist j
party," Senator Gore, at Altus,1
yesterday, hit Moore over the
head with his cane, shattering
the cane. Moore declared he
would not fight a blind man, and
when the Senator's brother shed
his coat and offered to fight, by-
standers intervened. Moore was
not badly hurt.

Prof. Edwin DeBarr arrived
home yesterday, coming from
Michigan, where he and Mrs.
DeBarr and daughters / have
been spending a month. They
returned a month or six weeks
ago from a year's stay in Eu-
rope, mostly at Berlin, Germany.
He will get the DeBarr home
ready for occupancy, and Mrs.
DeBarr and family will come in
a couple of weeks. Dr. DeBarr
will resume his duties at the
University in September.
Dr. DeBarr talks interesting-
ly of his experiences in Europe
and the characteristics of the
people of the different nations,
llis stay of a number of months
in Berlin demonstrated to him
that Germany and Germans are
very sure of themselves, proud
in. the extreme of the prestige
of their country,, which has
come from a fourth-rate power
to one of powerful commercial
and military influence, and
ready and willing at all times to
resent anything that might be
construed into a slight or insult.
This being so, he looks for a
very determined war unless
peace policies prevail.
First Fighting of Germany Will
Be With France, it Is Be-
lieved.
Germany Has Given France Un-
til 6 o'clock Today to Ex-
plain Her Attitude.
Diplomatic Connections Between
Russia and Germany
Severed.
War conditions in Europe are
rapidly getting worse instead of
better, and it is now believed it
will be impossible to bring about
peace without a long continued
and wide-spread war. The de-
velopments of. the last twelve
hours are:

not satisfactory diplomatic rela-

I the two countries and .it needs

It is believed the first fighting'
i Germany will undertake will be
J with France, and that war will

j tries tonight, for France dare
j not back down from the position
| she has taken.
Germany and Russia have j

' St. Petersburg today, and
'the Russian ambassador goes
I from Berlin tonight. While no

JAMES M. GRESHAM
of Norman f #1 *
Republican Congressional Candidate
In the Fifth District
Is the Logical Repub ican Can-
didate Because:
FIRST—He has always been a progressive Re- *
publican, and will receive the votes of both factions of J
Republicans. J
SECOND—He is liberal toward all parties, a J
good campaigner, offensive toward none, and will re- $
ceive the support of a host of liberal Democrats. His t
popularity among all parties, classes and factions is at-
tested by the fact that he was elected mayor of his
home town in 1909 by a large majority against parti-
san odds of 3 2-5 to 1. *
THIRD-—Being from Cleveland County he is re-
moved from the sectional prejudice existing between
Guthrie and Oklahoma City.
