CO-OPERATIVE CREAMERY
It Is gratifying to note the Interest
farmers und business men are taking
In the movement to stmt a co-operative
creamery in Ardmore. As to
the merits of the plan r.ne should
consider the sueeesB of the dairymen
In the north where they have been
operating under this plan for many
years. True thore have loen many
failures where plants have been start-
ed In localities where there wss not
sufficient raw material produced to
run them up to capacity and in some
Cases they were started solely for the
benefit of the farmers. The dairy In-
dustry Is growing rapidly in this vl-
rlnity and the farmers are in need of
a better market. Ardmore is an ideal
location for such a plant. The mOBt
essential thing is the assurance of a
steady supply of raw material. This
plan will insure the producer of a
steady market the year round and
likewise the consumer will have a
supply of dairy products of tho high-
est quality.

GEORGIA
Just at the present Georgia Is pass-
ing through a period of trip' and suf-
fering. Her people know what it is to
dwell in the valley of tho shadow of
death and they are cat-ying their
cross of sorrow with 'C-litude and
determination. Georgia alone can
solve her destiny she needs no out-
side advice she asks only sympathy
In her hour of trial. She has passed
through Get.hsemanes before and has
come forth purer nnd nobler for her
experiences. She lay :rone in the
dust once as Belgium les today
and she arose to a more resplendent
glory. She cannot claim perfection
neither does she desire tr. be stigina-
tlzd as the pariah of society for such
a stigma lacks justice nnd truth. She
will meet her obligations as a sov-
eiegn state should and she alone can
solve her future. Her reople are
among the best of the earth her pos-
sibilities are unrivalled. Hccause can-
cerous growths appear anon upon the
surface is no sign that her civiliza-
tion is rotten at the core as some
editorial writers would h:ve us be-
lieve. No state is entirelv free from
the outburst of barbarism in man.
It was not so long ago that Illinois
experienced a shame that caused her
people to blush. Coatesville Penn-

regrettable incidents af mankind. Col
orado has this very year been the
l scene of the most deplorable travesty
of justice that any state las ever ex
hibited to the American republic. No
Btate of our union can afford to point
the finger of scorn at any other. Geor-
gia has much to learn much to cor-
rect but when we question the In-
tegrity of its manhood and its woman
hood we do it an Injustice beyond
measure. There are evils to be cor
rected in the south just as there are
in the north. The southern evils are
typically southern and they must be
solved from the southern standpoint.
Development Is slow and frequently
we grow impatient but it will not be
hurried. The processes of evolution
require time and when we consider
that the evolution of the south had
Its origin In a prostrated land a land
prone almost to despair we must won-
der at the marvelous labors of Its
day. 'e have not reached perfection
neither have we retrograded. There
is much 'for us to do and much for
(us to undo. The possibilities are glo-
rlous and the future prosperity of our
section demands that we sacrifice all
we hold most dear if we would truly
shape a southland as cur fathers
planned it. Know thyself and from
that knowledge build thee more beau-
tifully than was ever dreamed before.
Let the dead past sink into oblivion it
is gone and cannot be rc called but
build more stately and fair that thy
future history may not repeat its evil
deeds. The Educational Monthly.

CARRANZA'S REPLY WILL CUT NO
FIGURE WITH DIPLOMATS AT
PAN-AMERICAN PEACE CONFER-
ENCE. Washington Aug. 31. It was stat
ed authoritatively Monday night that
the next step In the Pan-American
program for restoration of peace in
Mexico was under consideration and
would be taken In the near future re-
gardless of what might be the nature
of General Carranza's belated reply
to the offer of Secretary Lansing and
Latin-American diplomats to arrange
for a conference of Mexican military
and political leaders. No inkling was
given however of what form this next
development would take.
Responses from General Zapata and
bis military advisers reached the state
department Monday accepting the of
fer of the Tan-American conferees.
With the receipt of these replies Villa
adherents in Washington whose lead-
ers already have responded favorably
asserted that a peace convention to
form a new provisional government in
Mexico was assured even If Carranza
should refuse to participate. Adminis-
tration officials heard of this announce
ment with Interest but said no ar
rangements for such a conference were
now in prospect.
General Carranza's local agents de
clared that they expected the "first
chief's" reply within a few days at the
latest. They think it will come as
soon as Carranza has completed the in-
stallation of bis government at Mexico
City.
Eliuso Aredondo Carranza's confi-
dential agent In Washington issued a
statement denying reports of dissen-
sion In Carranza's forces and crediting
them to the Villa agent.
Villa Opens Monterey Attack
Reports to the state department
from Torreon late in the day said the
Villa forces had begun an attack upon
Monterey the capital of Nuevo Leon
which is in possession of Carranza
troops under General Trevino. The
message said navy fighting was.-i4
progress but gave no details. Earlier
reports to the Villa agency said Car-
tanza generals were calling In rein-
forcements to Monterey from Tam-
pico and other cities.
State department advices also said
railroad communication between I'ied-
ras Negras on the Mexican border
and Monterey still was interrupted
and that tile American'Red Cross was
unable to get a trainload of supplies
through to Monclova and Saltlllo
where there had been destitution
among natives for some time. These
were the first oflicial reports regard-
ing military activity in northeast Mex-
ico to reach the department for some
time although unofficial reports have
been current that a battle between
Villa and Carranza forces for posses-
sion of Monterey was pending.
Monday night General Villa is de-
clared to have headed a column of re-
inforcements which hastened to the.
vicinity of Monterey from Torreon to
the aid of General Raous Madero in
command of the attacking forces.
Major General Scott chief of staff
of the army who has returned to
Washington from the border where he
undertook negotiations with Mexican
leaders for the flate department will
confer with Secretary Lansing Tues-
day. AUTO OWNER ARRESTED!
TULSA TO TEST TAX LAW
Tulsa. Okla. Aug. 31. Legal pro
ceedings involving the right of the
city of Tulsa to charge a separate
tax on all ' automobiles operated here
began in the municipal coert Monday
morning when Fred Shav. proprietor
of the New State Automobile com
pany was arrested on a charge of
running an auto without a city 11
cense. The municipal trrest was
nothing more than a iformf.lity as it
a ready has been agreed r; test case
should be threshed out in this manner.
It is estimated that the new method
of taxation lessens the tax on the
i more expensive machines by half.
I The new law also proh'b'ts levying
a license tax for police protection by
which the city loses about $7000 an-
j nually. 'It was announrrd Monday
afternoon that Mr. Shaw will be rep
resented before the supreme court at
Oklahoma City Tuesday morning by
li s attorney who will apply for a
release upon a writ of h:ttcas corpus.
The city will be represented in the
lase by the city attorney.

CONGRESSMAN GREGG SAYS IT IS
MORE THAN A LOCAL PROPOSI-
TION. WILL ASK CONGRESS FOR
APPROPRIATION.
Galveston Texas Aug. 30. Federal
aid In rebuilding Hie causeway will be
requested of the next congress accord-
ing to Hon. A. W. Gregg representa
tive of the seventh congressional dis-
trict who arrived in Galveston tonight
and will spend several days here get-
ting data on damage done the city by
the recent storm.
Congressman Gregg tonight declared
that the Galveston causeway is more
than a local proposition: that its oper
ation is a mattetr of national Interest
and importance. Extension of the sea-
wall to the east end of the island and
construction of the Texas City dike
several feet higher than the present
level so that it may serve as a pro-
tecting wall against water during a
storm from the north are the two main
things which Mr. Gregg said he be-
lieves should be done at the earliest
possible time.
Work for Federal Aid.
As Galveston's representative at
Washington Congressman Gregg de-
clared that he will do everything In
his power to obtain government aid
In repairing damage and providing ad-
ditional safeguards against storm loss-
es in the future.
"I believe the United States govern-
ment should give aid in rebuilding
the damaged portions of the cause-
way" said Mr. Gregg "and I believe
it will. There certainly is no port on
the Texas coast that can begin to take
Galveston's place. When the causeway
was crippled the business of millions
was crippled. Why shouldn't the fed-
eral government be interested in a
proposition that concerns the welfare
not only of the State of Texas but
of Oklahoma Kansas Colorado and
other states of the middle west? I
shall certainly ask an appropriation
to assist in rebuilding this structure."
Water Supply Limited
Galveston has been cut off from its
municipal water service for two weeks
and it probably will be five days be
fore the mains are re-established. Ef-
forts to repair the submerged main
having so far proved futile work was
Started today on the main across the
causeway which was wrecked when
portions of that structure collapsed in
the Texas coast storm of August 16
and 17.
At present a supply of water Is be-
ing furnished by a temporary eight-
inch pipe strung along the remains of
the causeway but this service is In
adequate to meet the full demand.
There Is plenty however for drink
ing purposes.
