Many Oklahoma democrats who

do it too. arid despite the attempts of

Guthrie, Okla., Sept. 25.—State
School Superintendent Cameron will
cause suits to be instituted against
xo the big bo ik dealers who refuse to

books used last year may be used
until litigation is settled. This prom-
ises to throw conditions in the east

The sale under foreclosure proceed

there is not it is assured that the

JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Began at 6 O'clock Friday Evening—
Feast of the Trumpets.
Today, according to the Jewish cal
endar. is the first day of the year
"6(19. it is known ns Rosh Ha-Shana
or the Bible day of the Feast of the
trumpets. It marks- the beginning of
'en penltenlil days to follow and to
•Mos*' Yom Kippur or Atonement Day.
Now the Jews all over the world
are gathering |n their synagogues and
with prayer and services meditate on
the year Just closed; they commune
with God and reseolve to do better.
From this trend of mind, Mr.
Bryan, in considering the bank de-
jx'Mt guaranty law, is naturally im-
pe led to study the question from the
view point of the man outside the
teller - window. He realizes that it
would be *a pood thing to have a law
which would prevent the depositors
of any bank from losing all their
hard earned savings in a bank fail-
ure. He believes that it would be
better to have the birrden of the bank
losses to fall on the men who profit
by the bu.*iness and for thai! reason,
he favors the iruaranty law.
Bryan has been the best friend
that Oklahoma ever had. Through-
out the entire country, they refer
to Oklahoma as "Bryan's BaT v
State.' Bryan doesn't deify the par-
entage. and misses no opportunity to
express hi- pride in Oklahoma and
heT democratic government. Okla-
homa democrats will be given their
first opportunity this fall to repay
Mr. Bryan for what he has done for
Oklahoma. Kvery democrat worthy
of the name will go to the polls at
any sacrifice in order to make abso-
lutely certain and sure that Okla-
homa's seven e
iist for the 'MJreat Commoner."
