NORMAN OKLAHOMA. FRIDAY,
f
i B* n
"So it happens," writes Thomas E.
Watson in his magazine for July,
"that the Southern States are indeed
what the New Yorker calls 'the pro-
vinces.'
"In every sense of the word they
are 'provinces'—political and financial
'provinces'—ruled from the North,
dominated by the North-.rn politician
and the Northern financier.
"Belmont cracks his whip, J. p.
Morgan issues his command, and
they are obeyed,
"Politically they are obeyed; finan-
cially they are obeyed.
"The Southern Democrats will ac-
. cept and vote for any platform what-
soever any candidate whatsoever,
which the Wall Street millionaires,
who finance the party, have decided
upon.
"l'he legislatures of the Southern
States do not dare to pass any law
against which our Northern masters
resolutely set their faces, and the
humiliation of the situation is that
our Northern masters do not need to
stir from their Wall Street offices.
I-I hey issue their orders to the
lobbyist, to the politician, to the
editor, and the covert threat alwavs
goes with the order:
"Do this, or off goes your head.'
"The lobbyist knows he must defeat
undersirable legislation or he loses
his job—his salary, his unlimited
right to issue free passes, his private
car for himself, his family, his
friends, his creatures in the legisla-
ture, his creature on the Bench.
"The politician knows he must ob '
struct undesirable legislation or the
campaign boodle necessary to his suc-
cess will go to a luckier man.
"The editor knows that he must
knock the life out of any bill to which
his Northern master objects or the
subsidy which keeps his paper going
willb' withdrawn. The stock which
the railroad subscribed through Mr.
Tom and Mr. Dick and Mr. Harry will
be so voted as "to throw Mr. Editor
out of his job. Or that issue of bonds
which Mr. Editor went North to dis-
pose of to certain railroads, will be
used to thrust Mr. Editor from a
position in which he is no longer
effective for the men who bought his

Brother Southard will preach at
Robertson on July 9th.
Mrs. M. J. Pryor is improving. She
is expected to be up in a few days.
H. J. Doneworth and son made a
business trip to Norman last Satur-
day.
Sam Mitchell and Clarence Boucher
are chopping cotton for James Mc-
Kittrick this week.
Dr. Kelley preached to large audi-
ences at Robertson last Sunday
morning and evening.
Mr. Swallows is having a new well
drilled at his house, overwhich he ex-
pects to put a large windmill,

ing in the afternoon at Schwarts has
been changed to meet at eight-fifteen
in the evening.
Rev. J. B. McCance an M. E
preacher from near Blackburn will
preach at Schwarts on the first Sun-
day of July, at night only.
Mr. and Mrs G. C. Foster gave an
n-e cream social in honor of their son
Owen, last week. A large number of
young people were present and en-
joyed themselves.
Most of the cotton chopping in this
vicinity is through with. It seems
strange to see so many laying by part
of their corn while at the same time
they are planting the rest of it.
James McKittrick's drill which has
just put down a well on the Thompson
place and one for Mr. Kasbaum, pas-
sed through here Thursday on its way
to Mr. Swallows' farm. It will put
down a well for J. S. Shultz in Frank-
lin this week.
A big meeting is announced to be-
gin on the fourth Sunday in July at
Robertson school house. Dr. Kelley
who has never failed to have a good
crowd to hear him at that place is to
do the preaching It is the purpose
ot those in charge to have good sing-
ing. Every effort will be put forth
to make this meeting a rousing suc-
cess. Many are already looking for-
ward to it and arranging to carrv it
through.
Cleveland County Farmers' Union.
We have received several letters,
each of them costing us a 2 cent
stamp to reply to, asking when and
where the next meeting of the Cleve-
land County Farmers' Educational
Co operative Union will be held. The
next county meeting of Union will be
held at Denver on July 7th for the
purpose ot electing county officers
and such other business as may be
necessary to transact. Every local
iu the county should be represented
at this meeting and step* taken to
perfect the organization of the Union
in the county. Many of locals have
been holding regular meetings but
many of them have not. The ex-
treme.y busy season among the
iarmers is about over and during fall
and winter months thej should de-
vote time to looking after their
union and make it a power tor good.
It can be done ana we believe the
farmers in Cleveland county will see
to it that it is looked after as it
should be and as the cause of union
merits.
