The Tribune has always taken the position that our efficient
Navy should be maintained no difference what the cost. We
are proud that one of the great new war ships is named the
“Oklahoma.” The hog wash appearing in some of the papers
does not appeal to us. It is devoid of common sence, common
safety and patriotism. We regret that it is necessary to spend
$30 000,000 on new ships each year but $30,000,000 or ten times
this amount would not pay for a single days battle with a foreign
We commend the action of Mr. Bryan and others in trying to
reach an agreement with all nations to cease building war ships
for one year. We would make it one hundred years if we could
but, if other nations will not cease building war ships it is worse
than criminal negligence for the United States.

A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR.
Next week you will receive a visit from a most distinguished
personage. His name is Santa Claus. Do not tell us there is no
such person for we know there is long ago he quit putting things
in our stockings but he does more than that for “grown ups. He
places candy and toys in the childrens boxes, but he puts good
thoughts and good deeds in the hearts of older people. His an-
nual visit is hailed with delight by the little ones but He really
does more for the older people. The curious part is that each
grown person can choose the amount of joy they desire from 1 us
visit while children must take what is brought. Dear, readers
let us just resolve right now to enjoy this visit as never before.
Wealth or poverty is no bar. Give one hour’s thought to the sub-
ject and The Tribune will guarantee that a plan will suggest
itself whereby you will anxiously await the sound of the deei s
hoofs.

“The former was designed to protect the Latin-American re-
publics from European colonization. The latter is designed to
I save these republics from i-ecurrent anarchy . . . . .
“As the Monroe Doctrine was aimed at the Holy Alliance, so
I the Wilson Dooctrine is aimed at the professional revolutionists,
' the corrupt concessionaries, and the corrupt dictators ot all Latin
America. If language means anything, it means that so lar as
! this Administration is concerned the United States will not recog-
nize the constitutional authority of Latin-American governments
established by usurpation without the free consent of the unin-
timidated inhabitants thereof..... . . T ,.
“If the United States is to guarantee the integrity of Latin-
! American countries, they must in turn maintain a kind of govern-
ment that will not forever threaten peaceful relations between
the United States and the rest of the civilized world if we are
to protect their territory, it is right that we should demand that
they protect their own institutions.”—New York Worln.

We simplv know bevond any doubt whatever that Judge Bob

feel proud. Time and again he has been weighed in the balance
and never found wanting in any of the attributes ot a faithful
and highlv competent public official. .
Bob Williams is just a plain, ordinary Oklahoman, and his
first attempts at oratory were practiced while steering a selt-
wiiledmule and a bull-tongue plow athwart a cotton row.
There is very little history and no poetry under such condi-

' an education and never rested until he got it. He wanted to be- j
come a lawyer, and by his indomitable energy and perserverance, i
he became a successful one. ' . ., .
He wanted to be national committeeman, representing old In-
dian Territory mid won out. Then when the Constitution was to
be made he wanted to help make it—and he was a big 1 actor in,
forming the organic law of the State. Then he wanted to be the
first supreme court justice and had his ambitions giatilied. He
would have gotten the office without outside help if it had been j
possible, but it wasn’t. So he asked the good people oi this State
orth side of the e] himi and they did it graciously.

jergy to help himself. And that’s Judge Bob Williams. rI he world |

DEEP FORK
EXPENSES.
Both the boosters of Shaffer and Hill counties have urged;
that a good reason for cutting loose from Lincoln county was to
get away from paying part of the expense of draining Deep I’ork j
that would fall to Lincoln county. ,
The fallicy of such argument is appearant on a few moments
reflection. In the District Court the matter was held up and it I
is likely that the county will never have a cent ot the expense

Our esteemed contemporary 1 ne w,eks in what ap-

officers but never one who ™
that amount!°so'at the worst, the County would be paying for
the bridges the same as it does every where else, but, as we said,
it is likely that the county is not legally liable for any amount.
But this is not the proposition and the people might just as.
well understand it. If the county is not liable, no one will have
it to pav whether they stay in Lincoln county or join some other
county.' If the courts finally decide that we have it partly to pay |
it will be a liability against the county and any seceeding tern- j
tory under the law will have to pay to Lincoln county their pro
rata part of the amount. Did you ever see a responsible parts \
try to beat a just debt. It can not be done by moving. W e have
a statute against stealing and it is no plainer than the one that
provides for the payment of a pro rata part of the debts when a
part Of a county joins another territory.
The person who tries to run from Deep Fork, however, is
very foolish. That land, as soon as dreaned, will be the richest
in the county and will pay the highest taxes and produce the most
products. The little expense of a few bridges will be met a thous-
and times by the increase in produce and the taxes the land pays.
We would like to live in a county where every acre would be equal
to Deep Fork. We guarantee that it will beat oil a thousand times
when it comes to paying the expenses of government. Oil is so
