ROUGIINECKISM
Koughncckism manifests It-
self in a multitude of ways but
is always so apparent as to
need no identification. It has
been with us since the memory
of man in one form or another
and it remains with us yet.
It has shown itself to jthe lo
cal public several times during
the past week when the fair
was in progress in the garb ('
an automobile driver and in
each of several instances of
its display a righteous wrath
of not only one but many went
unspirant due to the hasty de-
parture of the Rough neckism
In one instance three young
ladies were driving at night
near the fair ground when a
car in apparent attempt to pas
the buggy struck it turning U
over frightening the team un
til they ran away dragging the
young ladies in the wreck and
injuring them all more or les
Beriously. The car driver still
able to operate his car drove
on in spite of the collision nor
even turned back and kepi.
agoing.
In another instance one ca.-
driver deliberately imposed up-
on the rights of another and in
passing ripped a fe'nder off his
car and this driver neither
stopped nor looked back. The
aggrieved driver sought to
overtake the fleeing culprit
but either lacked in driving
nerve or his car lacked in speed
for he failed.
In some stales there is a se-
vere penalty attached to the of-
fence of failing to stop and see
about it when one car collides
with another vehicle. There
ought to be one in Oklahoma
if there isn't. This port ot
thing is Roughueekisin of tiu
worst type. A man who will
run over you with his automo-
bile without stopping to see
whether or not he has ruined
your vehicle or killed an occu-
pant is cowardly enough to
poison your stock burn you
house while you sleep or shoot
you from the bushes.
Isn't there a way to get this
sort of fellow and get him hard?
That was our slogan a yea
tgo. We have eliminat-d Mi-
first part of the slogan Imp
still have the "regardlc-s o
cost."
Lawton Xews: - Lawton
Constitution: No. the advancj
in cost has not affected the de-
mand for automobiles. It is
still possible to mortgage a
home.
The I'oteau Xews: Carran
7.n isn't pleased with our sol
diers punitive expeditions.
I'uny expeditious are too fre
quent across the border 'twill
take an expedition of two or
three hundred thousand men
to bring that bewhiskered devil
to his half senses.
No man ever won a horse
race with a loosing mount and
no party ever won a political
campaign with a political has
been as its leader. The surest
way to insure Republican nat-
ional victory next year is for
the Democratic party to nomi-
nate Hryan for President.
Bryan has had three shots at it
with the best of the party in
the south southwest and wvst
behind him. but the eastern
Democrats uever took to him
and never will and those east-
ern Democratic votes must In-
held in line to win. Hryan
proved himself a quitter when
he left the cabinet over this
phaseology of one of the notes
to Germany at a time when
the country's future was unde-
termined. Anybody but Hryan
for the Democratic nominee.
Iet's at least start right.
Now that the much million-
aire Jack Ilamon Jias said h
would like to have Mr. Mo-
Graw's place as Republican
National Committeeman the
McGraw bunch accuses the
said Hamon of everything on
the calender from plain brib-
ery up. To the initiated poll
tical charges and counter
charges mean so little that the
bombast and bull being dissem-
inated from both sides serves
only for farce comedy. One of
them will win--the other and
his bunch will line up behind
him and all will be sorene un-
til the next time when another
aspirant steps in when the
thing will be repeated.
