ing for a big wolf hunt
There will be an election IN Oklahoma
If the ballot is ever untangled-
Three personal libel suits have already
bobbed up in Greer county since the cam
paign began.
They have nick-named Judge Keaton
Slippery Jim" That would indicate he
viii cut no ice.
The political headings IN newspapers
are now getting as scarce as they were
during the war.
II holds good in Oklahoma, as every
where else that the vote cast in the morn
ing is the valuable vote.
The beauty about Flynn Is that in con-
gress he rustIes for votes as hard as he
rustles for them in Oklahoma
Dennis Flynn started out 10 make an
easy campaign He is today making
harder campaign than he ever did
Fusion is never fair when II comes 70
a ballot. No mans name should be al
lowed on the ballot more than once.
Nearly everybody in Oklahoma is in
favor of the sort OF expansion which will
extend out and grab into the Union.
4 colored woman at Oklahoma City re-
50 cents which she had loaned him.

everybody reads every line in the paper
greedily and then kicks because there is
nothing in the papers but politics.
A fake in New York paper announces
THAI Geronimo has escaped. Old Geron-
imos escaping days are over, but the
New York papers must have news.
1t would be interesting to know why

working the equal suffrage scheme so
hard. Do they want TO catch the for
eign vote for Keaton?
In politics the last quarrel is the worst
The first quarrel in Oklahoma was be-
tween Barnes and Flynn. II is never
heard OF in the campaign. while the Law
erty revolt against Keaton is the talk OF
the territory.
Guthrie Capital: Keaton has been try
ing to make his campaign upon peanut
politics, and TO declare for the squeeze up
policy. He was against territorial ex-
pansion until he found his position too
unpopular 10 win. Then he assaulted the
administration with the same disastrous
results to himself He should read the
following from one OF the speeches Of
Theodore Roosevelt, and then hide out:
Finally, remember thai whether you
will or not, your votes this year will be
viewed by the nations of Europe from
one standpoint only. They will draw no
fine distinction; refusal to sustain the
president this year will in their eyes be
read as a refusal 10 sustain the war and
to sustain the efforts of our peace COM
mission to secure the fruits OF the war.
Such refusal may bring about Q rup-
ture of the peace negotiations. II will
give heart to our defeated antagonists;
IL will make possible the interference OF
those doubtfully neutral nations who IN
this struggle have wished US III. II Is
for the sake Of peace that / appeal TO you
TO uphold the presidents hands so dec;-
sively that foreign powers shall give up
all thoughts of trying TO interfere with
US. We want peace, and therefore We
must not so vote as to encourage foreign
powers to take an attitude which may
jeopardize peace
