STATE SENTINEL, STIGLER, HASKELL COUNTT, OKLAHOMA, THURSDAY, JULY 6, 1922.
OUR WEEKLY NEWS LETTER
A Leader in Retreat.
Washington, July 3, When the
announcement, was recently niacin
that President Harding had decided
to become the leader of his party
in matters of legislation and had
elected to assert his leadership on the
Ship Subsidy or Ship Bonus Bill, It
was hailed with joy by that part of
the Republican press which had been
criticizing him for his failure to lead,
and was acccpted by the Democrats
as an acknowledgment by President
Harding himself that the reactionary
Republican Congress was a failure
and without leadership. The Demo-
crats accepted the announcement
with many misgivings that it would
continue long over the week-end, and
in any event, with the belief that It
would meet with disasterous results,
because the President was testing his
leadership on a bill to which the
American pec pie as a whole are op-
posed, both in its terms and as a mat-
ter of policy
Within a week after the Presidents
assumption of leadership tre expect-
ed has happened; at the first sign of
resistance, the leader is in retreat. In
stead of obtaining his demand for
speedy action on the Ship Subsidy
bill, the leader has consented to its
postponement until the pending
Tariff bill and tho Soldiers' Bonus
bill shall have been disposed of which
according to present indications, will
be some time in September, when
wild horses or wainropes and oxen
could not hold Congress in session
with a Congressional election at its
height.
The presidential "Big Stick" turn-
ed out to be a feather pillow.
Relaxation in Politics.
Senator Frederick Hale of Maine,
who was renominated at the late pri-
maries in that state, is one public
man who can find no reasonable fault
with the cold wet summer. Maine Re-
publicans of fixed habits tramped
through the rain to vote for him In
the primaries; as many more voted
for his two opponents on the Repub-
lican ticket, but a large percentage
stayed home.
A livelier time is in store for him
in September, however, when he en
counters the militant Democracy with
tx-Gov. Oakley C. Curtis as its sena-
torial candidate. The Democrats
have als<* nominated a Congressman
in every Congressional District, ana
will contest every inch of the ground.
The Democratic campaign began
.here on June 22 at a state wide
Democratic meeting addressed by
Chairman Cordell Hull of the Na-
tional Committee, and received a mo-
mentum which insures unusual ac-
tivity.
The defeat of Senator Hale would
perhaps be mourned at the White
House here if nowhere else, for ac-
cording to the chronicler of the "Mtr-
iors of Washington," Senator Haie
is one of the men President Harding
takes with him on trips when he
wants complete mental relaxation.
Senator 0 l>l>er Asks Secretary
Weeks' Resignation
It will be a long time before Sec-
retary of war Weeks and the admin-
istration hear the last of the Secre-
tary's Cleveland, Ohio, speech, In
which he said that "the legislative
branch of our National Government
probably never has been at lower ebb
than it is today," and condemning the
"interference" of citizens in matters
of legislation about their own affairs
Senator Capper (Rep., Kan.) in
his newspaper calls Secretary Weeks
a "mossback" and an "anachronism,"
and suggests that the President call
lor his resignation. Among other
things, Senator Capper says:
"If a member of the President's
cabinet holds the views Secretary
Weeks says he holds, whether private
citizen (sic) or public official, he
should resign immediately, for he has
shown himself so wholly out of sym-
pathy with what he has sworn to
maintain as an official that he is In
no frame of mind to uphold the gov-
ernment."
And again:
"The recent progressive revival in
the primaries has alarmed him and
men like him wish state and na-
tional government to be wholly
dominated by powerful Interests.
Unconsciously, perhaps, Senator
Capper was hitting as hard at Presi-
dent Harding as he was at Secretary
Weeks, for the President has ex-
pressed some of the views given by
Secretary Weeks, particularly his op-
inion of the Agricultural bloc. Accord
ing to the President's newspaper
mouthpiece, which as often states Mr.
Harding's opinions in advance as it
reflects them and in both cases with
cigarettes
They are GOOD!
As Ben Franklin Said:
"The art of getting lllches consists very much
in THRIFT."
And Thrift consists very much in guarding against
needless expenditures, careless purchases and small losses
* —the kind that are so often the result of carrying too
much loose change in pocket or purse.
So the people who have a Liberty Bell Bank handy,
and make a point of dropping some of their small coins
in every week—until there is enough to add to an interest
bearing account—are in a fine way to enjoy all the bene-
fits of Thrift.
Stop in for a Liberty Bell Bank. There's one here
for you.
FIRST STATE BANK
STIGLER, OKLAHOMA
UNDER BOTH NATIONAL AND STATE SUPERVISION
great accuracy, Secretary Weeks 'told
the truth" Thus says the Wasrington
Post.
"One of the reasons why C'ongres3
is under well-nigh universal criticism
is because of the demagogy and cow-
ardice of Congressmen, and the evil
of the block system, which seeks ad-
vantages for classes as against the
whole community."
The post then labels and classifies
Senator Capper: "If they (the poll
ucians) are demagogues they will at-
tack such men as Secretary Weeks
who is courageous enough to tell the
truth."
Republican Floor Leader Mondell,
who is about as reactionary as Secre-
tary Weeks, but more adroit in con-
cealing is in some matters, calls the
Secretary's speech sophomoric."
Itepublicans Demanding Resignations
Senator Capper asking for the re-
signation of Secretary Weeks recalls
♦he fact that the demand by Republi-
cans for the resignations of Republi-
cans in high place in this administra-
tion is generally prevalent and i^, in-
creasing in intensity. The Republican
press, or that part of it which still re-
tains its independence and influence
with the public, is demanding the re-
signation of Attorney General Daug-
herty; the demands for Senator New-
berry's resignation have been matters
of record ever since his election; the
Washington Hearld which is still sup-
posed to reflect the views of Secret-
ary Hoover although he is out of it as
an owner says that the sentiment in
Congress is such that it may lead to a
demand for Secretary Fall's resignat-
ion,which ought also to call for the rej
signation of Secretary of the Navy
Denby on the theory trat the tail goes
with the hide; the Job hunters are
strongly in favor of the resignation
of Secretary Mellon, which many
think would have been forthcoming
if he had been overruled in the mat-
ter of appointments in the Internal
Revenue Bureau..
Still, as President Harding remark-
ed "Government is a very simple
thing after all."

NOTICE TO
DEMOCRATS
As there still continues to be some misun-
derstanding among the people regarding my pro-
posal to allow the democrats of the county to se-
lect my deputies in the event I am elected Sheriff
of Haskell County, I wish to make the following
statement:
That in case I am elected Sheriff
I will appoint but two salaried deputies,
one of these to be the jailor, and one the
under-sheriff of the county. One of these
men must be selected from that part of
the county east of a line running north
and south through the county just west
of Kanima, and the other to be selected
from the county west of that line. The
democrats of these districts will have
the privilege of selecting these men in
anyway they see fit, and the only re-
quirement is that they be men worthy
of the trust, competent and democrats.
The unsalaried deputies may be selected
jn the same manner, subject to the same require-
ments.
Trusting that this will make my position
clear, I am,
Tours very truly,
DAN FOLSOM.

ADVERTISE and SELL your f ARM
The way to sell real estate or farm property or anything for
that matter, is to advertise until you sell it. If you have to adver-
tise longer, add a little to the price of the property. As the Con-
sumer unconsciously pays the tariff on the goods he buys, the same Is
true of the person who buys Real Estate.
It makes little difference what kind of property you wish to Bell,
large or small, or where it is located, my system should easily dis-
pose of it in a very short time. My aim is to connect the buyers an1
sellers no matter how widely separated.

BILIOUSNESS AND CONSTIPATION
"For years I was troubled with
bilionsness and constipation, which
made life miserable for me. My
appetite failed me. I lost my usual
force and vitality. Pepsin prepara-
tions and cathartics only made mat-
ters worse. I do not know where I
should have been today had I not
tried Chamberlain's Tablets. The
Tablets relieved the ill feeling at
once, strengthen the digestive func-
tions, helping the system to do its
work naturally," writes Mrs. Rosa
