or A HOME RULE
PLANK

DEMOLITION or A HOME RULE
Home rule has been all along a pet
hobby with Oklahoma Republican
politicians. During the two last cam
paigns IT was u feature in conventions
and platforms and bore prominent
part in marching club transparencies.
II is safe to say in the light Of past
week events the Republican home
rule plank will be lugged to the wood
shed and split into kiEdling wood for
fires to warm the chilled bodies OF men
who have spent their time and ener-
gies in behalf Of party success.
There is lesson in this brusque
turn down Of Oklahoma politicians. 1t
means that the Repu party can
not or will not redeem It's campaign
pledges and that the promises OF it's
recognized leaders are empty moth
ings.
This is true Of both national and
territorial organizations.
All sorts OF excuses are being ad-
vAnced to offset the ill-effect OF last
weeks land office appointments, but
they avail nothing. Moreover, its too
early for excuses. There are several
more cousins, unable to pass civil ser
vice examinations, who must be sup
piled with territorial plunder, and it
will be just as well for party defenders
to reserve their explanations until the
president and vice president finish
perusing the birth-psges OF the family
bible. Then the explanations can be
carted to be front in one glittcring,
formida BILE bulk.

The lynching OF five robbers Al Yer.
ssiiles. Ind seems to have been en- act
for which no excuse can be given.
The men were in prison and fully
under control Of the law, and the
lynching was a manifestation OF ven
gesnce regardless Of justice, and not
prompted by an strocity exciting hot
and hasty passion That the men thus
illegally deprived OF life we're guilty Of
crimes deserving the severest punish
ment there can be little or no doubt
but that they should have been made
the victims Of mob is blot on the
fair fame OF Indiana.
The perpetrators OF this outrage
should be sought out by the Authori-
ties and they should be punished, Dis
regard for law Is becoming entirely
too common in this country, partly
owing, il is true, TO the laws delay
and it's lack Of impartial application,
but still not justifable, and certainly
the present case lacks all elements OF
defense.
