The Alva J. Niles and James Hep-
burn bombs, formidable at first, have
faced to obscurity. Hepburn has
kept his head through all his prose-
cution of the Okmulgee bank case,
resulting In the indictment of Gov-
ernor Robertson and other state offi-
cials, and declares he will not run.
The oily backing of the Tulsa mil-
lionaire-banker was only too appar-
ent. so that Niles' best friends were
even hesitant In pushing him.
Tom Owen Ntlll High Man.
On the democratic side, the stock
of Tom Owen has been practically
the only democratic lnvestmentwhlch
has not slumped This appears to be
the result of a broadside of person-
alities and mud-sltnging against
Owen, which has reacted favorably
for him. It Is rumored that he Is
the choice of the bankers wbo started
the Leecraft boom, which rumor,
should It prove true, will make his
triumph short-lived.
Bolen, Wilson and Howard stock
appears to have fallen far below par,
while lesser candidates are scarcely
mentioned now. It is the strategic
moment for the appearance of a dark
horse, and political sentinels are
watching for one.
But all this Is petty and common-
place.
Two bitterly opposed undercur-
rents of feeling which have not yet
clashed have agitated the surface In
places, but for the most part, have
been cloaked under the petty issues.
These are the unit of farmers and
laborers, now solidly welded, and the
opposition. The movements of these
undercurrents may be deteoted and
interpreted through the press of the
state.
Two Factors*
More than one newspaper has pre-
dicted that there will be two power-
ful. fiercely determined factions In
tho election, one of them the Farmer-
Labor Reconstruction league. It Is
generally concedcd that the league
w ijl win in the democratic primaries,
arid that the opposition will take the
f« rm of the republican party. A state-
ment from league headquarters, to
be published In the Reconstruction-
iSt. their official publication, pre-
dicts that Fields will lead the ticket,
as mentirned before.

doubtedly attract thousands of demo-

stance."'
Small county seat weeklies, with
Ignorint conservative editors, unable
to understand the League and its

vlkls. wild-eyed radicals, nonparti-

Troops Break Last Resistance
of African Strikers.
BY W. N. EWER
(Cable to The Federated Press.)
LONDON, March 31.—While South
African government troops are break-
ing the last resistance of the Rand
general strike and their allied com-
mandoes, the outbreaks of fantastic
stories in the capitalist press nre ap-
parently designed to pave the way
for drast'" measures of reprisal.
Some of these stories are to the ef-
fect that the strikers' course was in-
spired and financed by "Moscow" in
an attempt to paralyze one of tho fi-
nancial nerve centers of the world.
The stories tepreaent the striker* as
savage maniacs engaged In wholesale
massacres of the natives.
The cold tacts pre these:
The so-called revolt began last
January as a result of the men's re
fusal to accept the demands of the
mine owners for reductions in wages
and for the replacement of large
numbers of white workers by low
paid black labor. During January
the negotiations proceeded in the
Rand in absolutely orderly fashion.
Nevertheless large numbers of armed
police were drafted. Johannesbuig
capitalist papers began to talk mar-
tial law Then the negotiations
broke ('own. The owners refused to
concede anything.
Picketing Forbidden.
In the first weeks of February
there was a little sabotage. Febru-
ary 13, Premier Jan Smuts issued
a provocative manifesto calling for
strike breakers to go to work and
offering "protection by the full
power of the state.'' The next day
picketing was forbidden and pickets
were arrested . The week after that j
the papers reported the first cases
of serious violence.
The government replied by
strengthening Its armed forces and
sending airplanes to patrol the
Rand. Meanwhile the strikers formed
Into "commandoes," mostly armed.
The first firing was the result of the
attempt by police to break up a
demonstration march. One or two
strikers were killed. Troops and
more armed police were Imported
Into the towns with airplanes March
8th.
Attack NatlTes.
The same day saw ugly attacks
on natives by isolated individuals
and small groups. Twenty-five na-
tives were killed. The Industrial
Federation (employers' organisa-
tion) and also the extremist labor
groups issued strong appeals for a
cessation of these attacks. March
10 spasmodic encounters suddenly
developed into something like civil
war.
The accounts have been confused.
Some versions allege that the strik-
ers attempted to capture Johannes-
burg. This Is very doubtful. It
seems more probable that when the
government troops were quite ready
they began attacking outlying dis-^
tricts where commandoes were con-
centrated.
Government airplanes bombed all
the chief labor centers, triumphantly
reporting a "direct hit" on the Be-
nonl Trade and Labor hall. Eighty
persons were killed March 10 and
one hundred March 11. The loss of
police and troops are very small.
The strikers seem to have put up
a strong fight but have gradually
been surrounded and captured.
Fordsburg was the last point to hold
out. The commandoes are breaking
away to the hills.

When she climbed onto the run-
ning board of the automobile In
which the men placed her husband
she was pushed aside nnd cursed,
she declared.
Harris was one of the men. and
the driver of one of the two auto-
mobiles, according to her testimony.
"Nathan Butler and Robert Allen
turned you In for working at the
packing plants," the men told Brooks,
according to the witness. She said
that Brooks had walked out when
an exceptional position, for tho three
states have formed their own depart-
ment of foreign trade independent of
Moscow. Internal trade in Georgia
remains free, as it was before the
Bolshevik Invasion, no state monop-
oly having been Instituted, while for-
eign firms still continue their opera-
tions."
That there is complete accord be-
tween the Far Eastern republic,
which Included Vladivostok and has
Its capital at Chita, and Soviet Rus-
sia is also pointed out in this report.

COACH DEFENDS
Others Testify
Other witnesses called Friday
morning were W. T. Tucker, negro
undertaker, who handled the body of
Brooks. Jim Brown, police detec-
tive, said to be one of the two first
officers to arrive at the scene of the
hanging after the body was found;
Oscar Duncan, Sheriff Ben B. Dancy,
and the photographer who took pic-
tures of the body, found by a street
car conductor.
Brown told the position in which
the body was found. The hands were
tied behind the body, suspended a
few feet above the ground. The rope
had cut deep into the neck, and the
features of the face and hardly
be distinguished. The body was
swelled little, he declared.
Witnesses agreed on the position
of the body. Several pictures of the
body were introduced as exhibits
over objection from Moman Pruiett,
defense attorney. The rope which
Is alleged to have been used was also
presented.
Oscar Duncan testified that on the
night when Brooks Is said to have
been taken away from his home,
Lee Whitley and Harris met him in
Packingtown, and both asked him
to meet them at Stiles Pork later In
the night. The two cars (Harris*
and Whitley's) drove toward Okla-
homa City from Packingtown later,
he said. The reason that Duncan
did not go also was because he had
trouble with the lights of his auto-
mobile, he testified.
No opening statement was made
by Pruiett. The state, through J. K.
Wright, assistant county attorney,
gave the facts that they expect to
prove in order to send Harris to
the electric chair. Harris, of the
eight arrested for the lynching of
Brooks, is the only one who has
refused to plead guilty.
Others are now serving sentences
in the state penitentiary.
The jury which was selected con-
sists of the following: R. L. Peobly,
farmer; James Evans, oil man; H.
(\ Blacock, coal dealer; C. E. Dill-
ingham, mechanic; Alex Button,

been established with Moscow "on

The decentralized federation of
sttiles which the soviet statesmen
have worked out Is described in
some detail. These states fall into
two divisions, those forming a com-
pact federation over the greater
part of the territory of what was
European Hussln. and those which
are nominally Independent, "but are
bound either by treaty or by an
informal working arrangement to
the Moscow government." Such, for
Instance, are the Ukraine, Georgian
and Armenian Socialist Soviet re-
publics.
In addition special rights of self-
government have been given to cer-
tain homogeneous districts within
the confines of Soviet Russia, such
as the German Labor Commune on
the Volga, and the Karelian Labor
Commune along the Flnnlah border.
