UNDEMOCRATIC
The suggestion that the Demo-
cratic party of Oklahoma hold a
state convention which shall select
the party’s candidates for 1922
should not be given serious con-
sideration It is an undemocratic
suggestion
- For years the Democrats of the
state Justly criticized tho Repub-
licans for their practice of doing
this very thing It was declared
that tho Republicans in calling a
Convention to hand-plclc its candi-
dates were evading the provisions
of Iho primary law — and that was
a fact
Whi then should the Democrats
do the sanio thing?
The argument is advanced that to
do this would be to avoid tho bit-
terness of a primary contest but
that does not necessarily follow
There is no law which will bind a
candidate to accept the action of the
convention as final and to prevent
him from filing in the primary just
as though the convention never had
been held
It has been fourteen years since
Oklahoma was admitted bo state-
hood arid during thut time the
primary law has been operating as
satisfactorily as most any other law
There are always those who tlilnl
they could have made a better selec-
tion than the people make but this
is always true There are alwayj
folks who think they have greatei
wisdom than anybody and every-
body else
The primary law is the demo
cratic way to choose party nominees
So long as our elections are con-
tests between party tickets the pri-
mary election law is an essential t(
keep the candidates in intimaU
touch with the people
A state convention would b(
handled by politicians and the partj
would be asked to accept the result
of their plckine it would le s

An Oklahoma City man reportoi
that he had bought $380000 worth
of property from the Jake Humor
estate and then Frank Ketch ad-
minlstrator of the estate declared
he had no idea of making such a
eale Queer how some folks can bt
mistaken
Chicago packers say that meat
prices have dropped from 35 to 4 0
per cent in the past year Interest-
ing isn’t it?
FINISHING THE JOB
' Explorations and surveys being
made by the party under the direc-
tion of Attorney General Freeling in
discovering evidence as to the line
of the Spanish survey of the north
porder of Texas is a necessary pro-
cedure in winding Up the claim ol
the state of Texas to the oil lands
pf Red river ”
It Is a curious thing that th
great state of Texas after years of
recognition of Oklahoma’s ownership
pf the Red river should : have sud-
denly conceived the Idea of claiming
and seizing it There had never
been any question as to the owner
fehip of the river bed either in
(Texas or in Oklahoma ' Texas rec-
ognised Oklahoma’s ownership until
the lands became valuable and then
the cupidity of individuals put that
ptate in ' the position of seeking by
fgrcq and not by right to despoil a
sister state of part of its lands
The peculiar thing about the
proceeding is that the people of
Texas have been led to' belie'vc that
Texas had a chance to win the case
and have been forced to put up
large sums of money lo make good
the attempted seizure '
The result will be that Oklahoma
will havo more oil lands Ilian it

THE EMERGENCY TARIFF
From the World’s Work
The advocates of the emergency
tariff legislation urged that it would
help remedy our end of the difficul-
ty As a matter of fact we usually
do not import much of any farm pro-
duce that competes with our own
However there was a feeling that a-
we were the only people in the
world with relatively unimpaired
buying power farm produce might
be shipped to us who already had an
overabundance instead of to other
people who really needed it because
even if we paid but low prices we
could actually pay in gold whereas
the others could only pay in prom-
ises In real truth the emergency tariff
will do little for the general farmer
who is suffering except perhaps raise
hi3 hopes On the contrary it and
its successor if it is a high tariff will
probably do him more harm than
good It will raise the price of all
the manufactured goods which he
buys and reduce the good will of tho
foreign grain cattle and hog markets
to which he sells
If the United States adopts a high
tariff policy discriminating against
the goods of foreign countries these
countries can be confidently expected
to discriminate against our exports a
large part of which are farm pro-
ducts Carl Vrooman formerly assistant
secretary of agriculture pictures the
present plight of our farming popula-
tion in this graphic manner: “Tho
farmer is being smothered in liis
surplus crops It remains to be seen
whether he is going to be provided
with export markets now or a post
mortem later Unless given at once
a foreign outlet for their surpluses a
million more farmers will go bank-
rupt before fall In tragic con-
trast with tills stupefying spectacle
hundreds of millions of people in Eu-
rope and Asia are ragged rnld starv-
ing and unable to utilize either their
idle labor or their idle factories for 1
lack of the very tilings that arc rot-
ting in our Helds granaries and ware-
houses” Use Leader want ads for quick re-

CHAPTER 25
If Jim lias a characteristic more
outstanding than ills Harrison pride
it is his dislike of “scenes” Ail
discussion is annoying to him Ho
hates digging down to the root3 of
T actually felt Jim
iooth ignoring the
situations So I
wince when Carl Booth
fact that he was sharing our first
evening in our new-old house flung
his bombshell and announced that
he had something to say which
couldn’t wait ’till tomorrow
“Where’s Evvy?” asked Tom
apropos of nothing and making it
clear just by that question how
much lie counted on Evvy and the
background she helped produce
“She’s putting the dishes away"
replied Carl “I muddled them up
in drying them so it will take
good fifteen minutes to sort out the
demitasse spoons from the naiad
forks and the meat plates from Ih
cake plates We don’t need your
I cousin now Mason”
“Perhaps I’d better go help her'
suggested Jim
"If you can manage to delay her
snarled Carl “You said — or did she
say — she was your first sweetheart
You ought to be able to find a few
things to say to each other”
Coolly Jim turned to me
“Shall I go and see that our new
china gets properly assorted?” lie
asked
“Please dear” I replied feeling
as if I were walking on red-hot
coals and not seeing what good it
would do to have Jim either march
along next lo me or watch my ging-
erly progress
“If you're taking Donna Anna
into your confidence shan't I g‘
out and 1 t you chat without a
outsider to handicap you?” asked
Tom
“What’s all this elaborate pro
tence for?” cried Daisy “Carl it
just like all the rest of the men 1
think it would have been a good
idea to keep Jim Harrison with uf
to hear this Men hate the fact
that their wives aren’t dependent
on them They can call it by any
name they like — but it’s the old
slave-holder instinct I’m dead sure
or what ymu’rc going to say Car)
And I’m as sure of what prompts
it”
“Yes Daisy?” inquired Carl
grimly
“Yes” she stormed “You hate-
the Idea of my having any interests
outside our home You don’t want
mo in business Thai’s it isn’t it?
At this point tlioro was a queer
note ill her voice It seemed as il
she were pleading with Carl to ac-
cept this simple explanation of t
difficult situation
"Were you — thinking of B'oing in-
to business?” Carl demanded
“Haven’t I — gone?” she shrilled
in reply
“Looks like it” ho conceded bit
telly “At least it looks as If you
could manage to put that interpre-
tation on It”
“Why shouldn’t I work?” demand-
ed Daisy “Anne does If Jim Har
rison can lot his wife remain in th
business world why should it hurt
your pride to let mo? The Harrison
have a social position to endanger”
Tho crudenens of it sent Carl’t-
mouth twisting into a wry smile
Tom I hitched uneasily in his char
I had a feeling that we might bo on
the verge of protesting that Daisy
mustn’t consider the work sho’f
done on my apartment a promissory '
note of partnership with hint But representative is open
i
KIND OF green corn dance
SHE SAID without recognizing me
AND WITH her nqse twisted
UP LIKE a pretzel:
“THOSE NASTY Wichita Falls peo -
pie
GO CRAZY when their team
HAPPENS TO do anything
THEIR POOR old hungry army
OUGHT TO be doing something”
AND THE next inning when that
OLD BOY Hollingsworth struck out
THREE FT Worthers in a row
I ACTED nice about it and
SAID KINDA loud to my companion:
“THAT’S A shame! Why don’t he let
THEM HIT the ball
ONCE IN a while?”
4
AND SHE should have been
PLEASED AT that
BUT SHE wasn’t for she said:
444
“LET’S GET away from those
4 4 4
PEOPLE FROM Hog Wallow”
AND SHE made it plain
4 4
THAT SHE hated anybody from

I BUT SHE wasn’t

I THANK you
ho surprised me by saying:
j never had a better assistant
I
than F°ur wlfe- Booth- If y°u could
j see your way clear to letting her
1 take up tho work that interests her
go I’m sure I eould throw a lot of
commiffiions way
“But I wVt to tvoik in your
studio” murmured Daisy
Her declaration started on a
wailing note She repeated her
words as if (he taste of them were
good m rer mouth Then with a
queer perverted pride in the ein-
phanin she dragged out the skeleton
of tho situation everyone had been
trying to avoid
“I ran away from your studio
Tom when I found that I was just
nn assistant to you not a woman”
she said in a coiorlcrs monotone
“And when I was at tho un happiest The mnss of sticks and straws in
Carl feuud mo and asked me to
marry him I’d always- looked up to
Carl I was proud to marry him and
— to show you that I wasn’t the
tittle nobody you’d made me feel
But my life i::n’t very full — a mar-
riage based on pity alone isn’t real-
ly a marriage”
Tom lunged to his feety bursting
out volcanically
"This is impossible It can’t go
on”
"What can't go on?” Carl der
manded point blank
"Why — riir torturing Daisy be-
tween us” said Tom "Tho pool-
child lias a right to something com-
plete and perfect And we two lord:
of cre-il ion are parcelling her the
crumbs”
i got up and crept to the door
When there was a sordid scene to
dn-ad I'd felt Hint I ought to slay
and help see it iliroiigh But with
Tom and Carl and oven Daisy show
ing heroic signs' of being willing to
turn tiieir hearts inside out to gel
at the truth I felt only an intruder
It was Daisy however who stopped
me
“Please wait!” she cried “I can’t
bear this without you Anne You
know me You know how it is that
I take whatever I think I want-
not knowing it’s only for tho mo-
ment and that I may really want
something better”
As she wrenched out thin refer-
ence to the time when she’d taken
my pearl ring I went over to Ualsy
and put my arm around her Slic’d
had the courage to bring back the
ring and to tell tho truth from
which I was ready to protect her
with what I thought decent pre-
tense I knew she’d find tho cour-
age again for tho truth
“Watt!" said Carl sternly but to
which of us ho was speaking 1
couldn’t determine "Daisy has a
choice now An independent free
choice Today I told Loren Haldane
that I wanted to got out of the city
He’s been like a father to me for
years I told him that I couldn’t
make a go of things hero”
“You told him that?” gasped j
Daisy
On Tom’s face I could see the
question as to how much Carl had
revealed to Loren Haldane I foil
sure that Tom was remembering bit-
terly that Mr Haldane is tho uncle
and guardian of the girl he truly
loves But without stopping to give
us an idea of how completely ho had
taken Mr Haldane into his confi-
dence Carl plunged ahead:
"The post of English ndvertinliv
I’ve taken
it I’m sailing in a week for Lon-
don” I felt Daisy’s fingers tighten
around my - hand I heard Tom
Mason lumber to his feet and start
pacing up and down the room Then
Carl came over and laida his hands
cn Daisy’s shoulders He was abso-
lutely master of himself now Even
I was conscious of the power he
expressed
“You’re free to choose your own
happiness” ho said quietly “You
could go back Into business and
make a go of it You could stay
here — if it were right for you But
K isn’t You’re coming with me
" f M' I rm ftAA aV I
Daisy You’re coming — because
(need you?”
It was at once a question and a
demand I slipped my hand out of
Daisy’s and started for the door to
which Tom Mason had gone with the
effect of panic I don’t think Daisy
saw either of us Suddenly I heard
her voice ring out:
“I’m going with you because you
are man enough to — make me'” she
cried
But even then I fear she would
have stayed if Tom had only said
the word
(To be continued)
THE GREAT SUUfltlHF OF FARM-
ER BROWN’S BOY
Always give in to your wife
If you want a peaceful life
— Mr Wren
Having made up his mind that it
was quite useless lo argue -with Jen-
ny Wren and that as usual she
would have her way Mr Wren set-
tled down to work Perhaps Jenny
was right That old coat might make
a good place for a homo alter all If
it didn’t he could say “I told you
so” and this would be worth all the
work of helping build that nest It
wasn’t often he could say that to
Jenny
So Mr Wren settled down to work
stopping only to Sing Ho just had
to sing in spite of the fact that Jen-
ny said some sharp things about
wasting' time Jenny herself was a
very busy small person The way
she found small swings and straws
and carried them into the sleeve of
that old coat hanging from a hook
in Farmer Brown’s dooryard showed
that she intended to make up for be-
ing late in coming up from the
South and to get to housekeeping as
soon as possible Mr Wren was
ashamed to do less than his best So
he worked and sang and shook his
head doubtfully and the ma33 of
sticks and straws in the sleeve of
that old coat grew astonishingly
fast
Now Farmer Brown’s Boy knew
nothing about what was happening
the sleeve of that old cont
grew astonishingly fast
In that coat He had hying it there
because ii was wet He didn’t think
of it again until late afternoon of
tho day after he hung it up to dry
Then his mother reminded him of it
and told him he better bring it into
the house
“That’s so” said Farmer Brown’s
Boy and whistling as is his way he
went out to get it As he approach-
ed it lie thought he saw something
disappear in one of the sieevog
Farmer Brown’s Boy stool stiil and
stopped whistling "I must bo see-
ing tilings” ho muttered as ho star-
ed at that old coal
Out popped Jenny Wren flew up
lo the top of the post from which
the old coat was hanging and scold-
ed him roundly Tho way her longue
ltew and her tail jerked inudo il
very plain that she considered that
ho tiad no business there although
of course he couldn’t understand a
word she said Probably it is just as
well lie couldn’t It might have
made him feel uncomfortable
A funny look crept over the frec-
kled face of Farmer Brown’s Boy
“Well I did see something” said he
under his breath “Now I wonder
what Jenny Wren can be doing in
that old coat' '
Just then Mr Wren arrived with a
small stick When he saw Farmer
Brown’s boy he was 'so upset he
dropped it Jenny Wren promptly
flew down picked it up and oven
with this in her bill managed to
scold Mr Wren for his carelessness
as elie took it into that sleevo from
which she had popped out a 'minute
before 1
Farmer Brownis Boy gave a long
low whistle “Well of all things!”
he exclaimed and tlio look of sur-
prise on his face was funny to see
“Of all things! As sure as I’m alive
those Wreim are building a nest in
my old coat! I’ve heard of such a
thing but I never expected to see it
with my own eyes”
Then Farmer Brown’s Boy began
to chuckle Ho turned and wont in-
to the house "Mother” said he
that old coat has boon taken”
"For the land sake!” exclaimed
i Mrs Brown ‘‘Do you mean to say
that that coat has boon stolen right
out of our dooryard?”
“No” replied Farmer Brown’s Boy
with a twinkle hi his eyes ’’No It
’isn’t been exactly stolen It ia stiil
hanging out there but it has been
taken just the same I guess it
doesn’t belong to me any more”

‘BOOK’ EDUCATION
GIVEN TOO MUCH
EMPHASIS CLAIMED
By Associated Press
Dos Moines Iowa July 6 — Less
emphasis on mere books more on
the activities that high school stu-
dentsr organize was urged at the
National Education Association con-
vention here today by Burton P
Fowler first assistant principal of
the Central High School at Cleve-
land Ohio He said that the war
had developed an insistent demand
for reorganization in the aims of
secondary education
“A written social record like that
kept of scholarship should be made J
for every pupil throughout his school 1
career” Mr Fowler said "I ven-
ture the assertion thut such a record
kept for four years would fuvnish
more reliable information about the
efficiency of Mary’s school life her
chances ' of success in college in
business or as a housewife than
would the 93 per cent that places
her on the honor roll of the Com-
mencement -program
“Training for work play health
character and home membership
must be provided for all in the
wide-awake high school
“The school group with Its diverse
activities o f school citizenship
serves as an excellent training field
for this process of socialization
“Teachers must be open minded
and sympathetic toward' these col-
lateral activities
“Similarly the social agencies
themselves should form a part ot
the pupil’s regular program so that
the puptt who has to work outside
of school shall not be debarred from
full participation in the debate the
orchestra or his favorite club
“Vastly greater opportunities than
now exist for the expression of the
social instincts of children should
be provided Every pupil should
have at least one or two major social
interests In a school of two thous-
and pupils there is room for one
hundred clubs where ten now exist
“School parties should be under
the control of a social director who
by means of games and dances will
afford participation by all in school
social hours The ‘formal’ high
school dances are too often a cheap
imitation of the disportirigs of
adults Clique decollete jazz and
toddle are doubtful educational ob-
jectives” — v- i
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
SLOGAN OF AMERICA
Washington July 6 — Reconstruc-
tion in Germany is now so advanced
that according to reports by great
New York banking institutions the
time has arrived for American man-
ufacturers to consider Germany as a
market for manufactured goods
German Imports today have recov-
ered to the point that they are now
over 25 per cent of what they were at
the height of her position as a world
power in 1913 And such has been
her manufacturing revival that today
she already is exporting about 25 per
cent as much as she did just before
the war
The rapidity of her reconstruction
is offered by economists and members
of President Harding’s cabinet as
necessitating prompt clearing up of
the contusion in the international sit-
uation so that American business
may enter Germany on an equal foot-
ing with the allies And whatever
may be the basis of a treaty with Ger-
many whether it be the altered Ver-
sailles document as originally sug-
gested by President Harding a new
treaty containing such provisions of
the Versailles document as will In-
sure protection of American inter-
ests as appears to be a likely solution
of the difficulty or an entirely differ-
ent and separate treaty merely of
commerce and amity as suggested by
certain irreconcilables — this much is
absolutely certain:
The American government will In-
sist upon an equal opportunity with
the allied powers for unhampered
American trade expansion in Gei-
many

By Associated Presrs
Oklahoma City July 6 — The
week’ ending yesterday was char-

and fairly favorable to most sec-
tions for harvesting threshing ana
cultivating crops” in the weather j
bureau’s report today of conditions
in the state The harvesting of
