WHAT SOCIALISM STANDS FOR.
About the' blggost sensation of the campaign thus far has been
created by Robert L. McLendon, the socialist nominee for county Judge
In McCurtain county. McLendon has written u letter to the Inner circle
of the socialist organization—the so-called red card men, who have the
exclaaive management of the party—declining to support, the sort of
propaganda the socialists ure pushing in the southern part of the state.
McLendon sayti:
"As a member of your party I havo somo questions for you to
answer and your answer will determine definitely whether I shall con-
tinue as a member of your party or whether I will withdraw my mem-
bership. I want to know if you aro going to permit a few fellows who
are today renowned for their crookedness, cursing*the Blblo, the Church
of Christ, the ministers of Iho Gospel, the prayer-meetings, tho Sabbath
schools, to continue on in such conduct and remain in the party? Aro
you going to permit this bunch to be the mouthpiece for the socialist
party on the platform and on the stump? Are you going to permit men
who charge that there uro no clean m°n and who are not only unclean
thomseUes, but dirty with it, to dominato your party? Aro you going
to permit this grossly Immoral bunch to disgust the clean men of the
party who stand for a high typo of morality and Christalnity, and drive
them oat?"
Continuing after charging that the party leaders were not only op-
posing the Church and Christianity, but that they were making light of
other, McLendon says: "I shall not be identified with any class, party
or creed which stoops low enough to profane and blarkguard tho name
of my Creator, the Bible, tho Church of Christ, the prayer-m 'etlngs, tho
Sabbath schools, tho honor, virtue and chastity of womanhooc and man-
hood, the good, tho high and tho noble.
"Toil have selected mo for your county Judge of this county I do
not want the office If I am to hold It under any such cloud. I shall
not remain In your party Ifyo u donot clean It up." Mr. McLendon
closes his letter with the declaration that "Character is higher than
<wflc«. bat a party Is not higher than the men who man It."
O
KO WAR SIM HIT NOW.
Manifestations of the Jingo spirit, in this country are practically nil.
The sentiment of our people is almost unanimously with President Wilson
in his determination that no possible provocation which can bo foreseen
shall be .uowed to involve us in the war. The President's noble appeal
to bis fellow countrymen to safeguard the nation by deed and word
agatast the distress and disaster to which any violation of neutrality
might lead meets with a cordial response everywhere This country Is
resolved to keep out pf It,-Ohio Slate Journal (Rep.)

THE OLD NAVAL SWEATB0X.
Lincoln Tri«d It One*, and That Was
the End ot th« Torture.
On one of Air. Lincoln's eicur-
•ions to Fortress Monroe on tbe
ateamer HartforU in 1SG3 his atten-
tion was directed to a narrow door
bound with iron, the use of whicJi
he was anxious to learn.
"What is this?" he asked.
"Oh, that is the sweatbox," was
the reply. "It is used for refractory
and insubordinate seamen. A man
in there is subjected to steam beat
and hut very little ventilation. It
generally brings lurn to terms very
quickly."
President Lincoln's curiosity was
troused. "This," be said to himself,
"is treatment to which thousands of
American seamen are probably sub-
jected every year. Let me try it
for myself and see what it really is."
Taking off his hat, for be was
■everal inches over six feet in
height, he entered the inclosure,
which he found to be little more
than three feet in length or width.
He gave orders that at a signal
from himself the door should be
immediately opened. It was then
closed and the steam turned on.
He had been inside hardly three
minutes before tbe signal was giv-
en. President Lincoln had experi-
enced enough of what was then re-
garded as necessary punishment for
American seamen. There was very
little ventilation, and the short ex-
posure to the hot and humid air had
almost sufl'ocated him.
Turning to Secretary Welles of
tbe navy department, the president
ordered that no such inclosure as
the sweatbox should ever after be
allowed on any vessel flying the
American (lag.
It was not an hour after this or-
der had been given before every
sailor on every ship in Hampton
Bonds had heard of it. The effect
was most remarkable on the older
sailors, many cf whom had them-
selves experienced the punishment
of the sweatbox. Some of them
wept from joy.
But the good results of this act
of President Lincoln were not con-
fined to the American navy. Great
Britain, France, Germany and other
European countries heard that the
sweatbox had been abolished in
Amcrica as inhuman. One and all
of these nations in turn fell into
line, and today the sweatbox is not
to be found on any vessel flying the
flag of a civilized nation throughout
the world. . /
THE nation unprepared 18 the unwary victim of
its more progressive opponent. Men or women
who are unprepared are soon relegated to the ranks of tho
underpaid and become the easy victims of want, misery
and greed.

Lucky Manl
One morning two men who
chanced to meet at the club were
talking of a young fellow of dis-
tinguished family whom they both
knew very well. The young man
had succeeded in dissipating the
entire fortune left him the year be-
fore by his father.
"I'm really awfully sorry about
it," said Dolan "He must be in a
bad way now."
"Yes, his affairs are in wretched
shape," said Donnelly, "hut just
think how much poorer he would
be if the old man had left him
morel"—New York Times.
Grim Humor.
The following was told by the
granddaughter of an old lady who
had been known throughout the
neighborhood as one who had a
keen sense of the ridiculous: After
a long illness her finul hour was
supposed to have come, and her
children and grandchildren .gather-
ed round for a last farewell, when
suddenly she opened her eyes and,
on seeing the mournful expressions
of those about her, remarked, with
all her old time vigor, "Tbe watch-
ed pot never boils I"
A Wits Precaution.
A certain politician desired a dip-
lomatic appointment, says the
Washington Star. A friend in sur-
prise said to him:
"But you don't even speak the
language of the country!"
"Well," replied the determined
applicant, "a man isn't nearly, so
likely to make indiscreet remark',
if he has to get a lexicon and look
up the meaning of every word he
utters." •
Interesting Relics.
A party of tourists visiting a
well known ruin in Kngland asked
the custodian if they might carry
away some of the frugments of
stone which were lying in the em-
brasure of an historic window. "Oh.
dear, yes I' was the reply. "It does
no harm to the window! I put fresh
bits there everv day ou purpose
for visitors to take!"
Too Inquisitive.
"When will votir heaVt (often to-
ward me enough to let mo marry
your daughter?"
"1 don't ibink with my heart, but
will) m* brains."
"Then tell me, please, when can
I expect you to get softening of the
brain V
