erett T. Mason Is only 23 years old,
but he Is bad, b-a-d, B-A-D. Kverett
admits It in fact, he glories in it.
Outside of Jesse James, Cole Younger
and divers other boy-time heroes, Ev
erett concludes that he is about the
"baddest guy that ever hit these
parts," and officers here admit that
Everett has some claim to that dis
tinction. Everett-is now in Jail here, awaiting

V'Max PeartsAn'Cuahing of Reed college.,
times sold during his railroad career
fired his Imagination. Married life
waa too alow. He wanted to be a
"devil." So he met another girl, and
married her. He took hla first li
cense and. erased the name of the prin
cipal. Inserting the last girl's name.
It worked fine. Parental blessings
from his new parents-in-law, etc.
But still life lagged for Everett.
One day ho saw a speedy auto, all
rakish and hluhly-colored, standing be
fore a hotel. Everett hopped in,
"stepped on it," and was gone. Tell
ing his new wife that he had bought
the car, they sped away.
In his speeding he drove over a child
in Louisiana. He was arrested and
brought back to Oklahoma City, gave
bond for his appearance for trial, and
skipped.
Two months later Detective Joe
Burnett recognized Everett as he was
standing in a doorway here. Burnett
arrested him, and they were on their
way to the station house peaceably
enough. Suddenly bullets from an au
tomatic began spurting from Everett's
pocket, and in the ensuing melee he
got away.
During a recent noon hour, a young
man walked into the First National
bank at Francis, Okla. He wore over
alls and a slouch hat and walked
briskly, almost Jauntily, to the cash
ier's window.
"What can I do for you?" asked
Cashier Rose.
"You ean hand out all the dough
you got in this here Joint," returned
Everett, for It was he.
"Good Joke," said Rose, as he pre
pared to turn to his ledger.
"Look here," suggested Everett.
Rose looked looked squarely in the
muzzle of a .44 automatic. Together
they gathered up $2931.67, all the
loose currency in sight, and Everett,
with a whoop, mounted a stolen horse,
and was away to new fields.
Rose gave the alarm and an auto
posse was formed. They soon over
took Everett. A pistol battle ensued.
no one was injured and again the boy
bandit escaped.
Eight hours later he turned up at
Holdenville. He was soaking wet, and
the money he tendered in purchase of
a new suit,, and an auto Everett had
had enough of horses was wet. He
drove- to Wetonka, where news of the
damp money had preceded him, and
alighted in the arms of a squad of
police.
"Well, I didn't do so bad, did I,
Homely?" he said, to the policeman
who conducted him towards the Jail.
Everett boasts he will never come
to trial.
Ford Militaristic in
Business, He Avers
Gentle .Slap at Pacifists Manufac
turer of Motor Cars Hay Be for
Peace, Fut He Is Prepared.
Philadelphia, May 27. George
Wharton Pepper took a gentle slap at
pacifists in general, and Henry Ford
Ih particular, at the University of
Pennsylvania. Mr. Pepper was the
principal speaker at a student meeting
in Houston Hall to stimulate interest
in the Plattsburg camp. Referring to
those who are against preparedness,
Mr. Pepper said:
"If you want to find out how mili
taristic a pacifist is, make a commer
cial agreement with one and break it.
Take Mr. Ford, for Instance. Buy one
of his celebrated motorcars, refuse to
pay for it, and you will be astonished
at Mr. Ford's preparedness. He will
hale you into court with astonishing
celerity and get a Judgment agalns
you. If you refuse . to pay that, he
will have the sheriff tap at your door
Still persisting in refusing to pay,
and Mr. Ford will have the pollco
back up the sheriffs powers of moral
suasion. If you haven't paid by that
time, he probably will ask the gover
nor to call out the militia, or possibly
will urge the president to bring the
pressure of the National Guard to
bear on you for the payment of the
money you owe him.
"Mr. Ford may be a peace advocat
and a pacifist, but he certainly be
lieves in preparedness."

WATTLE BARK MAY
BE PRODUCED HERE,
ASSERTS AN EXPERT
Territory of Oregon Said to
J vOw
Be Well Adapted for the
Growth of Tree.
That the. territory of Oregon is ad
mirably adapted to the growth of the
trea that produces wattle bark for
tanning purposes, is reiterated by John
Hall, representative of the. New Zea
land dominion In this city.
Mr. Hall recently Imparted to the
Chamber of Commerce the news of the
fact that the New South We.les gov
ernment of Australia haa started an
extensive propaganda for the produc
tion of wattle because of the great
value of the bark for tanning pur
poses. In carrying out this work the New
South Wales provincial government
will give strong financial support to
the movement. Private Interests have
In the past planted wattle extensively
In that territory, but so Important has
the Industry become that the Austra
lian government ball eves it should
be fostered with all possible state
aid and help.
Several yrara ago Mr. Hall urged
upon local Interests to have the wat
tle experimented with here. He
brought the matter before the Cham
ber df Commerce again recently and
urged that a considerable quantity of
the wattle seed be procured and
planted In those localities where it
seemed most likely to thrive. After he
had made the statement a criticism
of his presentation was Indulged irby
certain persona who -said be erred in
comparing the climate of Oregon to
either Australia or New Zealand,
Mr. Hall did not lntend'to - say that
Oregon's climate Is like that of the
tropical or the sub-tropical part of
Australia, but he doea contend ana
says he is ready to furnish the facts
to back the statement mat a consioer
able part of the New Zealand climate
is very closely akin to tnar or. uregon
It haa been found that the wattle
thrives in those parts of! New Zealand
whera . the climatic conditions are
verv rauch like those Of: Oregon..
That the experiment might be made
on a comprehe naive scale, Mr. Mail
haji . volunteered hla services ' to - the
Chamber to aid in securing a suffi
cient Quantity of seed if those Inter
ested, would take th initiative. He
has on hand a pound .or so : of the
seed now which he haa 'offered to -the
Chamber to have planted by the Agri
cultural "college, i the' forestry bureau,

On the other hand the I 'ay f,iiiioii
contends that It is in t!i. saddle, that
it got there by fighting lne with fire,
and that It is going to slay there, U
of which promises another lively ses
sion when the chairman calls the gladi
ators together again.
The Bolo boys charge that the whole
proceeding by which 1 m y was nomi
nated and afterwards declared elected
as permanent chairman is so inter
woven and tainted with irregular prac
tices that It is void and of no legal
effect. They contend that it was H ;
legal to allow proxies to he voted, and
that this nlone should, and does ln .
validate the election, of Day. They
also contend that more votes were cast
than there were delegates accredited
bj the credentials committee, and last,
that it was outside of nil i ei ozniaed
rules of parliamentary procedure for
permanent organization to be effected
by voting two men into permanent of
fice by the same vote.
Proxy Bale Adopted.
The Day people, however, contend
that they came to the nieetiiiK with a
big bunch of votes ready and willing
to make an open fight for control. The
proxy rule was made by the creden
tials committee and adopted by the
committee as u. whole, Including the
Bolo contingent, and they assert that
at least two of the five proxies voted
for Dr. Alun Welch Smith, and that
there Is nothing to the story about
too many votes being cast. They
point out that they con tended for open
rather than secret voting, and that th
Bolomen put the secret ballot rule over.
They also charge that people repre
senting themselves as from the Ure
gonia'li passed the word to delegates
that a vote against Smith would be re
sented by that tribune and would not
be forgotten, and further that the cre
dentials of the Bolo delegates were de
livered to them on Wednesday while
the other side got theirs only after
putting up a united howl with the coun
ty clerk, who at the last minute sent
the entire list to the meeting place.
Whatever the merits of the contro
versy, it Is now planned, Bolomen tiy,
to reconsider the vote which made Day
permanent chairman when the next
meeting is culled, force the appoint
ment of a committee on permanent or
ganization and carry the fight ones
more Into the open committee in the
expectation of lining up sufficient sup
port on the floor to overthrow iHiy and
put the Bolo-Bowerinan-Oregoniaii can
didate In control.
