FARMER* HOLD YOI'K LIVESTOCK
With these rains, that are making
native grass pastures, say nothing of
one or more cuttings of alfalfa, fa'm-
ers should quit sacrificing their live-
stock and hold it foi higher prices.
With over 2.0O0.000 farmers quitting
the farm to go into city industries,
food production is hound to be lim-
ited. including livestock, and prices
tor farm products reach profitable
higher levels.
The time for the wise farmers to
stick is when everyone is letting
loose.
F. S. MARSHAL THAT
IM 1'. S. MARSHAL
While all this conflict reigns in
the police power of the state govern-
ment, there is one man who is clean-
lag out criminals in Oklahoma whose
crimes fall within the province of
his official duties, and that is U. 8
Marshal Alva McDonald, for the Wes-
tern District of Oklahoma
And this is all due to the fact that
Marsha) McDonald is not a swivel
chair officer, but one who takes the
lead of a squad of men and goes
right out in the hills and < anyone and
tells his deputies, ■Follow me.”
He is probabb' the first of Okla-
homa proper man>ha>s to do the ac-
tual field work himself. His track-
ing of Al Spencer, the notorious band-
it of the Osage hills, was a hazard-
ous piece of work that meant expo-
sure and travel in all kinds of
weather and danger of the outlaws.
The department of justice hasn't
got a better marshal in the field than
Alva McDonald
CHIEF EXEd'TIVE MI PPOKTED
BY (OINTRY AT LARGE
It may be a matter of information
to those who are not in a position
<0 be conversant with the opinion of
the country at large on the conflict
now going on in Oklahoma to know
that the metropolitan press of the
country la supporting the chief execu-
tive of Oklahoma. The great dailies
of New York. Boston. Chicago, St.
Louto, Philadelphia, Cleveland. 'De-
troit, Baltimore. Dallas. Fort Worth.
Kansas City—any and all are a unit
behind, the governor of this state as
the chief executive bead of govern-
ment. These newspapers do not care
Who and what he is, what the fac-
tional fights on him are. they simply
recognise the fact that he is the au-
thorised administrator under the le-
gally constituted government of the
state and to destroy the chief execu-
tive means that the state has been
turned over to mob law, anarchy, riot
and revolution.
This Is a serious matter for the
state, and not a matter of mere street
opinion and what the governor is or
is not in his personal qualities. It
‘s a question whether this sovereign
state aa one of the forty-eight units
of power, under the Federal Consti-
tution. can rule itself under the con-
stituted process of law, or whether it
can be overcome by any illegal num-
ber of persons banded together to
defy the natural processes of govern-
ment.
And let ill be aware of the fact
too that the federal arm of the gov-
ernment will only step in when the
state government is broken down, and
then it will step in to uphold and
enforce the chief executive of the
state and not any organization of pri-
vate citizens.
Let thooe who persist in making
bad matters worse, look well to the
final outcome, if they desire the fed-
eral government step in behind th?
chief executive of Oklahoma with
every vestige of power—with arms, if

The school term began at Navina
September the tenth Several new
improvements have been made in the
school building, and we hope to make
the ensuing term the most successful

Navina will lie on the map in ath-
letics this year Although the attend-
ance is too small for a husky football
squad, both boys’ and girls' basket,
ball teams expect to be in the lime
light.
"The boys’ basketball practice

The new laboratory outfit arrived
last week, and we are ready to
