Mayor Walton
Here Oct. 21
Mayor Walton, democratic candi.
data for governor, will address the
voters of Sogers county at the crirt
house Saturday night, at 8 o'clock.
Few voters of Bogers county have
aver had the opportunity to lit" the
mayor. He is not an orator, but a
vary convincing speaker and should be
greeted by a largo crowd.
One of the farmers who was getting
|2.16 for his wheat under Woodrow
Wilson's regime, and who was advised
by John Fields to vote for Harding bo
he counld get more—he is getting 75
cents now—was in Oklahoma City the
other day.
"I'd like to see the house where
John Fields lives, he remarked.
He was taken to the Skirvin hotel
and the beauties of that fine hostelry
shown him. The elegant five room
suite where John lives and keeps his
poodle dog was pointed out. On the
main floor the beautiful dining room
with its hand-decorated walls was ex-
hibited.
"I haven't much money but I'll give
$100 reward for every farmer that
ever took a meal with John in there, '
he said.
I "Yes, and I'll give $100 reward for
every farmer John ever shook hands
with when he wasn't running for of-
fice'' another farmer who accompa-
nied him remarked.
County Candidates
Behind Walton
Edgar Anderson, manager of the
County Campaign Committee, has ad-
vised the secretary of the Waltoii_tnr-
Governor County Organization to en-
roll all of the candidates as members
of the organization. The county
candidates are all solid behind Walton
and reports from all over the county
indicate a great victory for the demo-
cratic state and county ticket in Rog-
ers county.
Dear Ladies: Here are some facts!
that will make you remember the
Fqrdney- McCumber Profiteers' Tariff
blfi: I
Hooks and eyes which are so indis-;
pensable are to be increased in cost by |
about 100 per cent. The present duty
under the Democratic Underwood law
is IB per cent ad valorem. The Re-.
publian rate is to be 4 V4 cents a pound,
plus 25 per cent ad valorem. Aren't j
they to be dear little things ?
You can't sew on a button hereafter
without thinking of the money you are ^
earning—for some one else; a nice bigj
trust. Under the law as it stands there j |
is a tariff rate of 15 per cent ad va- j
lorem on the buttons you use. The j
Republicans have made the tax from
20 to 45 per cent. This means an in- j
crease of from 33 1-3 to 200 per cent.
"Button, button, who gets the gravy ?"
In case you should want a belt buckle,
hereafter you can get it for 200 per
cent, an even 266 2-3 per cent more
than you are now paying. The present
duty of 15 per cent ad valorem has |
r;i increased to 45 and 55 per cent
ad valorem.
You will be told that these higher
rates are to prevent the flooding of the
American markets with an inferior
product. Here is the answer from the
Tariff Commission: The domestic pro_
duction of hooks and eyes in 1920 was
valued at more than $1,000,000. Im-
ports the same year were $3,401. The
annual output of American button fac-
tories is above $25,000,000. The im-
ports in 1920 were valued at $27,684.

A man in California filed a petition
in bankruptcy last week giving his lia-
bilities as $304,840,332,912,685.10, he
having borrowed $100 in 1897 at 10 per
cent per month interest. That's one
case where the creditors would be glad
to see the bankrupt settle at about two
cents on the dollar.

JOHN FIELDS SAYS
VOTE FOR THE MAN
1
——
But Republican National Organ Says
"Vote for the Party"
John Fields, in his frantic efforts to j
be elected governor of Oklahoma, ha>
discarded the republican party and has ;
made a direct appeal to democrats to
forget their party and vote for him aa
an individual, offering a "coalition"
government, and other things—in fact,
Fields is ready to offer anything to
anybody in exchange for the govern-
or's office, even to offering appoint-
ments to democrats in the event he ia
| elected.
However, the National Republican,
j the organ of the republican party na-
tionally, dsiagrees with Fields entirely,
and advises the voters to vote for the
party, saying that "the policies (of the
party) are permanent and big; the
candidate is temporary and small." It
also says that "by votiug for the
candidate of the party in which you
do not believe, you turn the govern-
ment over to the hostile party."
Democrats who are "off the reserva-
j tion" because of nominees whom they
'don't happen to liks should ponder well
the following taken from that pa-
per's issue of September 9, 1922,
(questions and answers, page 17):
"Q; If the party in whose policies
you believe should nominate a candi-
date for office of whom you cannot ap-
prove, what should be the attitude of
uio conscientious woman voter? •
A: If the policies of the party seem
right, according to your best judgment
you should vote for a straight party
tipjtet. The policies are permanen: and
big; the candidate is temporary ard
small. Though the candidate is an in-
dividual may not meet with /our ap-
proval, he is far more certain to stand
for the measures of which you approve
than is a candidate, however noble, of
the opposition party. He has the party
policy back of him. By voting for the
candidate of the party in which you
do not believe, you turn the govern-
ment over to the hostile party or help
cripple an administraton in which you
really believe.''
Fully
Endorsed
the Ticket
Democrats are awaiting: breathless-
ly for the names of the democrats John
Fields intends to vote for in the <som-
, ing general election, John says he is
McAlester, Okla. Oct. 10.—A meet- j a "non-partisan" "coalition'' candi-

operation in Oklahoma City was called true "coalition" government John will

way at variance with what had been tend to support some of the democratic

Carl Monk, candidate for the state
senate, was charman and he made a
speech of an hour and a half, advoca-
ting the straight democratic ticket.
The meeting then went on record
through a resolution as endorsing the
mocratic ticket from top to bottom.
The meeting was called by Morley and
as the democrats he is attempting to
mislead to inform a palpitating public
which particular democrats he intends
to cast his ballot for in November.
Constantine of Greece will in private
life be known as Prince Flukebouien.

ed by George Porter, Will Moore and
G. P. Gordon. Morley and Gill ob-
jected to the democrats taking it over
and the regulars promptly replied by
reading the call, which nvited all good
democrats to be present and they
maintained that they were good demo-
crats.
As a result of the meeting McAles-
ter is still without a constitutional
democrat club. Several republicans
were among those who appeared for

LINENS FOLLOW WOOL IN NEW
TARIFF ADVANCE
Following the final passage of the
Fordney-McCumber Profiteers' Tariff
i bill on Sept. 19, comes the announce-
\ ment from New York under date of
Sept. 22, of the first advance in whole-
sale prices due to the new tariff on
various linen of 20 per cent. The
wholesale house making the announce-
ment also states that your new tariff
list" shows an advance made neces-
sary by the tariff. While this firm
waited until the tariff actually went
into effect before making the an-
nouncement of increased prices, the
Woolen Trust which has fattened for
years on republican high tariff, beat,
the line*) company to it long ago by
advancing the price of woolens as
high as 46 cent" a yard. From now on
the overburdened taxpayers must con-'
j time to pay, pay, pay until the estin.a- i
ted $4,000,000,000 of tariff is collected
j all of which except 6 oj^^er cent will
1 go into the pockets of fn^fcghly pro-
I t. cted industries.
