ROMANCE IN 0KLAHOMA (New York World) Prolific of advanced political ideas, Oklahoma, the Wonder State, is turning out anti-draft “armies.” With their leaders the draft is a side issue, or at most an excuse; the example is the Russian Revolution; the purpose is to overthrow the government of the United States and set up a sage-brush pantisocracy. As such designs gain in bigness they lose in power and are invested with a kindlier interest. Mere anti-draft plotters of a less youthful type can make trouble; but bands of dime novel heroes who impress farm hands and school boys by threats and talk of seizing the railroads, and then the towns, and then the country, are living tributes to the deathless hold upon the young imagination of Romance. We are told that ‘“‘the situation in the sparsely settled parts’” is ser- fous; naturally it is, since in those parts there is much room for errant fancies and few to suppress disorder. Where posses of citizens have been formed they have dispersed the immature revolutionists without much trouble. The dreaming world molders will eventually come into camp and be good. Those who are drawn will serve in the National army. Most of the others will settle down in time to raising wheat. Those who do mot will continue to engage the attention of the prosaic police. BEMIDJI IS NOT WORRYING ‘When that bunch of friends of the kaiser residing in the vicinity of Wilton get any action taken on Bemidji's citizenry for refusing to stand for a bunch of alien enemies and loafers it will be a bitter cold night in July and the sun will be shining. Bemidji absolutely refuses to stand for any I W. W. agitators or friends of the kaiser. Bemidji isn’t New Ulm nor anything like it. Not Bemidji. And if any one desires to start anything on that line all they have to do is climb on. i And, by the way, while the people of Bemidji are strongly opposed to I. W. W. or any of their ilk and will not for a moment tolerate them, it might pehoove certain individuals who arrogate to themselves the des- tinies of the city in this, and also other directions, to eliminate a little of that personal prejudice in other matters while so doing and stick to the subject, It isn't any personal matter nor any political stunt or other stunt much as some would like to make it and which is easily seen through. THAT THREE-YEAR NAP The fourth year of the war in Europe has begun and the fourth month of our participation in it has ended. If we had begun to do, three years ago, some of the things which we are hardly prepared to do after four months of effort, our contribution to our Allies would be more emphatic and valuable. When the reckoning is taken, both amohg those who have favored our entry into the war and those who have clamored to be ‘“kept out of war,” the one outstanding thing, the one item of censure upon which all will be agreed is that our neglect of national preparedness for three years was nothing short of criminal in its folly—and there will be no difficulty in allotting the blame for it. NAILING A CAMPAIGN LIE Last fall, before election, the Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer, owned by Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels, published under large headlines the assertion that the exodus of negroes from Southern to North- ern states was due to the colonization efforts of Republican leaders and for election purposes. In its issue of July 26, 1917, the News and Ob- gerver publishes an article in which the statement is made that “‘the reason the negroes have been going North is because they are paid better wages there.” So it is now admitted that the only corruption in connection with negro migration was the dishonest use of the facts by the Democratic campaign leaders to prejudice the voters unjustly against Republicans.

It is the only gem which has literally ‘‘dropped from heaven,” for Peridots have been found in meteriolites. among The Peridot is a beautiful, deep olive color, making up ex- quisitely alone or in combina- tion with other gems. The significance of the Sar- donyx and Peridot is a happy married life. Barker is showing both of the August birthstones in settings appropriate for men and wom- en. If you were born in Au- gust, or if you have a birthday present to give this month, be sure to examine the Sardonyx and Peridot jewelry at Bar- ker’s. E. A.

But do you remember when they made it over the coals of the kitchen stove, with a long toasting fork? Browned just right, crisp, and buttered hot. Those were the days. We've gone right back to this fine, simple old idea to make Lucky Strike, the real Burley cigarette. Yes, sir! The tobacco— it’s toasted. We made this discovery after five years of experiment. Before this you couldn’t havea relZdy-made Bgrley cigarette; flavor wouldn’t hold. And you certainly wanted it; look at the mx? million pounds of Burley you poured out of those green, red and blue tin boxes last year. “Blame good tobaccol” S 9‘ So now go to it; Lucky Strike Cigarettes; delicious, toasted Burley., It’s a new flavor—you’ll enjoy the idea of the buttered toast.
