CURTAILING A SLACKER'S MAZUMA
One of llie most remarkable features of the seizure ly the
j'ovrniiniit of (inner HcrdoH's proper! iei in this country is
tli.it so simple and direct a mettiod of procedure against litis no-
torious draft-dodder and deserter was not thought of before.
Money lies at the very root of all the criminal escapade jn which
tin's yellow slacl er has indulged for many years past. He thought
it would protect him from punishment when he dashed recklessly
about in his automobile and when war was declared he looked to it
to save liim from service in the army when he should have been
r;igr 'to enlist. It was his pot of gold real or mythical that ena-
bled him to make his sensational escape ami it is money sent from
the Uriled States that has made it ossible for him to live a free
man m tier many and hurl defiance at the country lo which he and
his family belong. If this golden stream from America can be
.cut olT from Bergdoll he may. lake his medicine; and again he
may not. Only the future can determine that point. Die mental
workings of this wealthy crook arc so curious that no one can pre-
dict his course with accuracy. Hut there can lie no doubt that he
will feel it a very real punishment if his remittance from this side
of the big pond shall be cut olT and if he shall be reduced to the
sad necessity of going to work for a living. The government is
thoroughly justified in the step it has taken and whoever devised
this vigorous policy is to be commended for having taken the right
course. For years the Bergdoll scandall has been a serious reflec-
tion on the intelligence of army authorities. Now in tackling the
deserter's property interests they hit him in a tender spot. Uncle
Sam now holds a whip hand against the unpatriotic ftipitive. Ft.

THIS TIMBER-STARVED COUNTRY
To the Americanpublic needing more houses and paying ex-
cessive' rents it may seem incredible but it is a fact t'.ut Congress
leaders want t0 tack a ono dollar a thousand tarilT duty on rough
lumber and two-dollar duty on finished lumber.
Never mind the housing shortage in the United States with
an estimated lack of suitable shelter for 1150000 families.
Never mind the timber shortage in the United States with a
yearly growth equal to only one-seventh wUtho -rmntry'.. reiitu're.-
ments.
Never mind the prospect that as production and consumption
are now measured the timber supply of the country will be ex-
hausted in fifty years.
Never mind the fact that the national Forestry Department
which is spending $7(XK)(XX) a year planting trees and trying to
help the growth of timber declares our only chance to save Amer-
ican forests is meanwhile to use what wood we can from abroad
every tree imported as lumber being 'equivalent to an American
tree saved as standing timber.
Never mind the protests of many intelligent important and
patriotic lumber men themselves who declare the country cannot
get along without foreign supplies.
Never mind the mtblic. never mind the country never nunc
anything si ail a duty on lumber for the particular interest that

MONDAY A BIG DAY IN CHICKASHA
Chickasha merchants will have a big co-operative bargain day
Monday. Prices in all lines have been smashed for the occasion
and the buvinc miblic will ret the benefit if they take advantage
of the opportunities offered. In practically all the stores will be
found merchandise at erreatlv reduced prices. It will be wise for
the people of Chickasha and the surrounding country to make
Monday the biggest shopping day ot tne year.
