A NEW PAPER AT TULSA
The Oklahoma Democrat is to be the title of a
new weekly newspaper to be launched at Tulsa
October 1st Former Congressman E B Howard
is to be its editor and business manager and E
Bee Guthrey of Tulsa will be associated with him
in the new venture It is questionable whether
any more Democratic newspapers are needed in
Oklahoma for the reason that those already in the
field- receive very meager party support llowev
er as Mr Howard is a px-actical newspaper man
familiar with every phase of the art pi’eservative
of arts from editor’s desk to waste basket is in-
telligent and broad minded and an Oklahoma pio-
neer who knows its needs the Times-Star is glad
to number it among its exchanges and hopes Mr
1 low ai d and his associates may fully realize upon
their brightest anticipations in the newspaper
field

According to the laws of the land it is a crime
to give away liquor Another of those fool laws
whicli prohibit what nobody wants to do anyhow
In a few more weeks the boys and gii’ls from
this locality will be leaving for school Send them
the “old home paper” while away and it will help
them to solve their homesickness and loneliness
Coweta sotiety is being visited just now by a
stranger (uninvited and unwelcome) whicli keeps
its devotees busier than a small boy with a Water-
bury watch It hasn’t been named yet but is
making itself felt
Hon Scott Ferris is being considered for Chair-
man of the Democratic National Committee but
its doubtful about his accepting the honor even
though offered him There is too much friction
in the party tomake the position alluring to one
as well acquainted with the situation as Mr Ferris
doubtless is
Now we are told the big profiteers who robbed
the government during the war have found a loop
hole through which they see thier way to immu-
nity from prosecution The statute of limitations
has run It will he difficult to convince the people
that the government’s delay in instituting prose-
cutions was not according to plan — Tulsa World
The services of unemployed men who could
secure no work and had gone without food for
daj s were offered for sale from an auction block
in staid old Boston last week but buyers were
few and far between Some of the men were vet-
erans of the w’orld war unable to secure work to
procure even an occasional meal Where oh
where may genuine freedom and patriotism be
found ?
President Harding strong for limitation of
armament doubts that complete disarmament
will ever be possible He says “there may never
be a time without the necessity for armed forces
in every government”
“Never” is a long word '
Two centuries ago men said “They’ll never
be able to stop dueling”
But dueling has been stopped So also will
man when he becomes civilized stop war — duel-
ing between nations
The people by refusing to go to war will stop
it if the governments don’t — Times-Democrat
m
It would be appropriate for the republicans
when they hold their state committee meeting to
select new officers to pass suitable resolutions
commending the national administration on the
way it has handled the oil and other industrial
situations At the risk of being unkind we sug-
gest that such resolution be read by either the
committeeman from Tulsa or Okmulgee county
The people of those two counties demanded the
biggest change last year and having secured just
what they asked for ought to have committee-
man brave enough and grateful enough to reso-
lute in strong language What do you say
Gentlemen? — Press Bureau
The Wagoner County Free Fair will commence
Wednesday of next week September 21st and
continue through the week From information at
hand this fair is going to be very much better this
year than ever before and if you have not already
made arrangements to “take it in” from start to
finish you’re going to miss some mighty fine at-
tractions Uuless you get busy and by your attend-
ance help make it the best country fair in Eastern
Oklahoma you’re going to lose some splendid edu-
cational advantages rarely ever so cheaply offer-
ed Make it a point to attend every day
—
After spending a day out of office and on going
through a lot of mail piled up we spent an hour or
so sorting out a lot of junk sent out by publicity
agents of large corporations who imagine they
are getting free publicity through country news-
papers by sending this trash each week to coun-
try editors We were just wondering if the mon-
ey spent in preparing this junk postage and other
expenses if used in buying space in legitimate
publications would not get results and really be
much more economical
The compulsory scchool law requiring boys and
girls to attend school should be strictly enforced
this year The boy or girl who has not ambition
enough to obtain an education should be made to
at least get some schooling and while his chances
for success are rather small yet his usefulness to
his community and the world at large will be seen
in later years by giving him at least a few years
in the public schools
And now the famous comedian “Fatty” Ar-
buckle has slipped on the primrose path and faces
an indictment for the murder of a movie actress
in San Francisco Calif when a lot of them were
having a “wet” party in Arbuekle’s suite of rooms
at his hotel Easy money indiscreet females and
wet” goods often prove the undoing of many a
man ho surrounded otherwise would prove use-uTcitizens
President Harding is quoted as having said
that the way to get out of the present prosperity
slum is for folks to “grin and bear it” Most of
us are "bearing it” all right but not drawing a
$75000 a year salary the “grin” fails to material-
ize according to instructions
