DON'T BE EFFECTIVE
There ia quite a hullabaloo of scorn, hatred, incitement,
lying and bitterness hurled in the columns of various news-
papers at the Non-Partisan League since a group of its or-
ganizers started activities in Kansas. Governor Allen, fa-
mous advocate of "law and order" (through an "industrial
court" to outlaw strikes), says the legion is quite justified in
using violence to drive the Non-l'artisan League workers out
of Kansas. Of course, Governor Allen doesn't my violence
but that is what he means.
The Oklahoman gives nice preferred space to these at-
tacks on the Non-Partisan League and some of the Oklahoma
politicians have already begun to froth at the mouth at the
mention that the Non-Partisan League may come into Okla-
homa.
Here's a l'unny thing: most of the attacks on the Non-
Partisan League which get into print, refer to the "failure"
of the league in North Dakota—yet they are positively rabid
in their attacks on the league's efforts in this section! It
must be that all these newspapers which attack the Non-
partisan League are so tender-hearted that they cannot bear
the thought that the farmers might be led to pay out $18 for
membership in the Non-Partisan League and not get their
money's worth. These papers, in fact, are more concerned
lest farmers get stuck with a bad investment in Non-Parti-
san League membership than in oil stock, or farm lands
whose products can't he sold at the cost of production.
The farmers can't always be fooled. They have done
enough thinking to believe that any thief who advocates
economy for a prospective victim has an ulterior motive.
The vindictiveness of the attack upon the Non-Partisan
League by word and act is because the Non-Partisan League
has been effective in busting up the pleasant game of grab and
graft which has been highly developed for the purpose of put-
ting many, many dollars into the pockets of speculators and
profiteers instead of into the farmers' pockets where they
belonged, ifthe Non-Partisan League was such a failure in
North Dakota as some of its enemies in the southwest claim,
there would be no such uproar when a mere score or so of or-
ganizers begin work in Kansas.
It is because the Non-Partisan League is effective and
has not been repudiated by the farmers of North Dakota, in
spite of all the violence and other efforts of its enemies, that
those who live by farming the farmer hate and fear the Non-
Partisan League.

THE WOMAN CHILD
i
I,ook at the way she hangs onto the cover;
Look at the cute little fuzz on her lid;
Look at that smile, it just makes people love 'er—
Gosh! but she sure is one wonderful kid.
Talk ? Stick around when she yells for her dinner—
Gets every single darn word she is told.
Rotten, 1 guess, when she's just a beginner;
This is her birthday; she's seven months old!
Fond of her mother? Well, so's every baby,
But look at her balancing there on my knee.
Look at the smile that she hands me, and maybe
You will decide she is fonder of me!
When about midnight she starts in to riot
. With colic or something—like all babies do—
~\.VI am the guy that can make her keep quiet
By taking her up for an hour or two.
Who does she look like—say, some how or otner
Before she arrived I was strong 011 the hope
That she would grow up as the spit of her mother,
An' yet 1 ain't sorry I had the wrong dope.
She's some little peach is this lady—well, rather—
She's got 'em all licked in the beauty show game;
That's more than a person can say of her father,
An' yet she's the image of me—just the same.
I got to step out and go after the dollars;
That kid can't be dressed like a small village hick;
She'll need pretty clothes, an' swell shoes an' fur collars
An' all that a girl ought to have pretty quick.
It's goin' to take money, I tell you, to dress her.
But when she's dolled up she will sure be a joy:
"A boy is less trouble!" you ARE a bum guesser!
Say, what made you think that I wanted a boy?"
In answer to the letter of Mayor
J. t. Walton to the county attorney
requesting co-operation between. the
county and city prosecuting officers,
Forest Hughes, county attorney,
oraade the statement Tuesday that he
was heartily in favor of the mayor's
proposal to have one of the assist-
ant county attorneys work in con-
junction with the city attorney and
j the polico force.
j "Just at present, however," said
Hughes, "I ain faced with tho pros-
| pect of disposing of about a hundred
and fifty felony cases and an enor-
! inous civil docket which have been

Many of these old cases are held

have been compelled to assign one
assistant to the civil docket and will
try and have my criminal docket
cleaned within the next sixty days.
I Judge George W. Clark is now in
: possession of a roster of ull prison-
ers in the county prison and I am
j KOinn to check up on all of them to

A great many eases must be dis-
missed because of the fact that dur-
: Ing the many months elapsed since
the commission of the crimes mate-
rial witnesses have disappeared.
"Once I am free to do so I shall
be only too glad to take advantage
(of Mayor Walton's offer and in the
meantime I will do all I can to ex-
j pedite justice and co-operate with

I TULSA, Okla., Jan. 11.—Eyes of

also uncovered and it exploded,

AIRMEN FLEW TO NORTH
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—Senator
King, of Utah, today asked the navy
department for information about
the conditions under which the three
navy balloonists who were lost in

what purpose they made the flight.
King stated that if the navy de-
partment's reply to his inquiry^
seems to him to require it, he will
introduce in the senate a resolution
for an investigation of the flight.

three men whose bravery is ac- 4
knowledged. «

dered to investigate the flight of the
lost naval balloonists.
