By a vote of fit! to - the people of
the progressive little city of Alex have
decided to incorporate.
We don't wonder that the republi-
can press objects to the democrats
calling attention to their selection o;
Jake Uamon as a member of the state
election board. It shows the hj poeriey
of all their clamor about "honest"
elections
- -o
I'erhaiis the most amusing of all the
canards sponsored by the republican
press bureau is the story lliat Jack
Johnson the prize lighter is coming to
Oklahoma to make speeches for Cruce.
A man who can't laugh at that has no
sense of humor.
o
We are uiueh gra tilled to note that
King George and the Duke of Orleans
between whom there has been marked
coolness have made up and are now-
good friends. The duke met the king
the other day and kissed him. cm both
:heeks also planting oie on the queen's
band and another on her cheek. You'll
have to admit that the duke is swi.e-
w hat o.f an osculator.

A republican organ admits that they f
have no hope of electing any one on
their state ticket except McN'eal and
they expect to do it by the aid ot
democrats. Thai's a pretty large con-
cession to make and we hardly expect-
ed it to come so early. They are still J
indulging in the fond hope that lhe ;
Murray and Ross men will sulk. A
bigger mistake was never made. With
Boss and Murray both campaigning for
the democratic ticket there is no dan-
ger that their followers will 'not do
their duty. The chances are that .Mc-
N'eal will be snowed under by a larger
majority than any other man on the

sive republicans will not stand hitched
to his standpat cart.
All you have to do Is to stamp in the!
circle under the rooster. You w ill
thereby avoid all ifanger of mutilating
your ballot and thus lowing your vote.
A straight democratic ticket is good
enough for anybody this time.

Now that the election is but a few
days off and they can look back over
the camnaigu of their own making
the republicans are -beginning to realize j
their blunders both in choosing the;
Washington made i.latform made foi 1
lhe Oklahoma republicans and in the j
hoosing of candidates to run upon that ;
platform says the Wave-Democrat. '
First because that plaiform was ram
med Jown the throats of the rank and
llje of that party without their consent
and secondly because the lenders have
thought to coerce the party to support
it without regard to their own feelings
iu the matter. It ia bad enough (o ac-
'ccpt a reactionary .man to bjad the
ticket ever if lie would keep silent

progressive Oklahoma to vote a ticket
that will set them back at least ten
years is more than many of them can
s-tand which many of them will u;h do.
On the other hand the man who heads
the democratic ticket is of clean record

Thai 'the democrats of lire state
were never more solidly uu'ted than
now is tlio judgment of both democrats j
and republicans who have traveled ex-1
lousively over the state and are in a
position to know political conditions.
W'lille he republican ranks are full of
Insurgents and independents who will
certainly "spill" their ticket and in
many eases vote the democratic ticket
straight the democrats are lined up
even more solidly than they were
three years ago. Among the reasons
for this condition is the fact that the
next legislature will have to redistrict
the Mate into legislative and congres-
sional districts. Voters who have lived
in Oklahoma and Indian Territory
siuco territorial days have not forgot
ten the republican gerrymander in j
litOli in an effort to alve the reuiihli-!
cans a majority in the constitutional
convention nor have they forgotten
how" a republican congress laid out a
district ''specially for Bird iMcGuire
or the formation of the freak Second
or "gooseneck" district which extends
from .New .Mexico almost to Arkansas.
The legislative districts as they now
exist in tho constitution were favor-

hunters m the saddle Oklahoma
would be gerrymandered iu a way
that would put even a Philadelphia
councilman to shame. We know what
this bunch has done before aud that
is a sufficient evidence of what they
would do again if given the power.
"1 am going to do all 1 can for the j
election of a democrat to the house j
ami senate" said a prominent rcpuWi- j
can in Northwestern Oklahoma. "The :
prese.nt legislative districts are fair to
all parties and if changes are to come
we want them to be made by a party
tliis is already on record for fairness
along that line. .My democratic neigh-
bors are nil lined no stronir for their

alone would be enough to hold them in
line even if they had anything to be
dissatisfied about
All over the state it is felt that the
next legislature will be more strongly !
democratic than was the Second legis-
lature. The (senate can not possibly be
republican owing to the number of
democrats who hold over. . And voters
jare everywhere asking themselves

Joe .Mc.Veal contributed money and

Fn ited States.
Joe McN'eal 'trli d to tie up tlie suc-
cessful handling of the Columbia bank
when the credit of one hundred and
twelve towns of the state was involved
when the depo.-its of thousands of poor
people were. at. stake. First by advis-
ing state banks' to refuse payment of
assessment; next 'by encouraging in-
Juiietlon proceedings in the United
Ist.ates. .court.
What '.liiitdness had Joe to interfere?
lie is not a itate bani jt; he is not a
! depositor In state hanks. No reason
011 "ath fur interference except that
he was willing to cause thousands of
people i. suffer: ln n willing o em-

SWORDS OF JAPAN
O'd Samurai Blades Arc Looked
Upon as Sacred.
HANDLED WITH REVERENCE.
When (he SU) Bib pf

by HamJ which Grisps (t Peac
j
Jf one were in a friends house In
lapnu end ebould ask to examine one
of tho old samurai swords that rest in
the lacquered sword rack in a ulacw
of honor there a curious formula of
etiquette would be followed by i lie
host.
He would no o a closet and return
with a little square of silk iu his hand.
'This he would map about the shark
skin haudle of the sheathed sword be-
fore touching bis bare hand to tbe
Thou with bis right hand
grasping the Hilt covered handle and
tho linger of his' left gingerly raising
tbe lacquered hilt from the rock the
Japanese hot would lift the sword lo
the level of bis forehead and bow to it.
AH this tu reverential spirit and with
inino.f:'v gravity. U'he square of silk.
preserved i'or no purpose but this and
bavin;' its own name in tho Japanese
vocabulary is to prevent the defile-
ment of tho handle by a hand which
jrrasps it in peace. The bow is meant
for the spirit of the swordsmith who
forged this weapon. The reverence S
for the sword itself "soul of the sa-
murai." in the Japanese poetical con-
ception and aptly called by foreigner
'the steel Hible of Bushido."
Hut this is oidy the begluuing of the
formality. When the Japanese host
unsbertbs the blade he does It with
the edge toward hits own body and the
point directed away from his truest
i Wlien the anest. receives the sword iu
:
his own bauds tie must ue cavonu to
keep the outer ede always sway frotu
i lie direction of his friend tbe host.
If he wishes to examine both sides of
the blade he must even turn his back
so that never will tho men;eis of the
sharpened edge be directed toward his
mend.
After the examination 5s completed
the sword is returned to Sts scabbard
and the owner roceive it with an-
other bow and places it once more ou
its tack.
The etiquette of the sword . is n"
empty thing; With the high spirited

that as the shiuiug blade must be kept
free from spot and corruption so must
bis soul be ever clean. Neglect of the
