Taking advantage of the brief breathing spell between tho unspeak able oppressiveness , of tho Missouri summer and dreary months of bitter winter, soon to come, the Kansas City Star chortles with considerable satis faction as follows: "Fall weather in Missouri and Kan sas can't be excelled. Beginning each year some time in September and run ning usually past November, this fav ored region gets the finest article of weather manufacturer, the kind today b made of. There ,are no goods in the weather line anywhere thut can touch it, very little that can equal it. For climate, give the connoisseur in weather Missouri and Kunsas in the autumn. It'B the best brand of weath er the world over." While the Star displays a lament able lack of knowledge of climatic con ciitimis in near-by states, we can hard ly censure it for drifting into a boastr ful mood when the occasion appear opportune. Still, it puts Itself In :i somewhat ludicrous position when it makes such sweeping, unsupported statements as "There are ho goods In the weather line that can touch it," alluding to the Missouri-Kansas va riety of fall weather. Evidently, the Star has in mind a comparison with California and some other states that are wont to take special pride in their weather, and has naver sampled our Oklahoma goods. RVe do not question at all that Mis souri and Kansas would rank well up In the list in a fall weather contest. (n 'fact, ' we cheerfully concede that they produce an exceptionally fine art icle but this is far fram saying that they come within a mile of Oklahoma.' The truth of the matter is that the Oklahoma brand is decidedly superior to any other on the market, a fact that must be recognized by all compe tent authorities. Moreover, the Oklahoma variety not only grades A-l in quality but also in quantity It holds the world record. It could 'be established by statistics that e grow more first class fall weather per square mile in this state than can bo found in any other country oh earth. In fact, so prolific is our pro duction of this crop that we are not able to consume more than a half of It during the fall months, but we ac cumulate such' stores of it that we have to keep on using it nearly all winter. Except for a very few days during the winter, it lasts us till well into spring. While bleaK Missouri and Kansas are feeding on beastly blizzards, we continue to feast on tho dainties of our delightful fall days. v e are not saying this In a boastful spirit, but merely to correct any wrong conclusions that might have been drawn from the Star's remarks. If we were disposed to boast, we cer tainly would observe what Is manifest ly; as true as the gospel itself that on this proposition of weather In general, Oklahoma holds th'e highest batting average in the Union;,-jt Is true that for a few weeks In theiumiher we siz zle more or less but this merely adds jo the variety which is the spice of life, giving relief from' the monotony which is the bane of existence in such unfortunate countries1 as California. ' Even the discomforts Of bur sizzling days are not to be compared with what the folks in Missouri are going through at the same time, arid for ttie rest of the year we revel in weather luxuries that are unknown in other climes.

Party policies can not be carried out except by party solidarity, party or ganisation, party harmony and party unity. "Let us lay aside the excitement and the friction which has disturbed to a greater or lesser degree members of our party in making the humiliations, and stand firmly together for the suc cessful election of our nominees into whose hands we must entrust the en actment and administration uf Demo cratic policies. t "Let us take stock, and enumerate some of the Democratic accomplish ments which Justify us In appealing to the people for 'their support in order thut wo may justify ourselves in ask ing their continued support arid confi dence. , "For the first time In over half a century the progressive Democracy has control of the United States gov ernment, and since March, 19-1 3, the Democratic party with strenuous kcuI arid untiring diligence has fulfilled one pledge after another, and done inure in the way of constructive legislation than the most sanguine friend of De mocracy could have hoped for."

John Fields, the Republican candi date for governor, would make better headway ,among Intelligent .people .it hf1 would quit his demagogy." v' According to a Republican paper published at Stillwater, whore Fields, made a speech, the Republican candi- date for governor is quoted as saying: 1 The speaker (John Fields) Void of a Democrat in Stephens county who wrote him and told him that he was Inclined to vote for him, and asked if he would be .legally liable If he did. "Ybu laugh at this statement," sal.1 Fields, "you honest Democrats of Payne county have no idea of the con ditions that exist in southern Okla homa," and then Fields went ou to paint in lurid letters about the ignor ance and depravity of the farmers of the southern part of the state. Ho di-claies ttiat three-fourths of the farm ers in. the southern part of the state were tenants arid had been taught that the Democratic party was an oatli bound organization. - , When B'ields reached the southern part cf the state ho had equally fearful tales to tell about the Democrats , in the northern half. In the southern part of tho state. Fields insisted that he believed in all of the' negro laws the Democrats had put on the statute books, but John isn't talking that way when he gets intd a county like King fisher or Logan, where there is a large negro population and where the grand father clause, owing to intimidation cf the Republican federal court offic ials, has never been enforced.
