DIFFERENT MEANINGS AT DIFFERENT ENDS.

Mr.. Stanley Is reported to have taught
his Sunday school class over the telephone
during q period Of recent indisposition, and
II the wires were not crossed we believe the
following to be very fair account of the
great feast of reason and flow of soul:
Hello, central! Give me the Methodist
church"
Hello! Is this the Methodist church,"
Yes. Is that you, Brother Stanley?
1T is Who am talking to?
Your Sunday school class"
"Ah, indeed. AS you know, my health is
such that cannot be with you in person,
but 1t gives me untold pleasure to be able
to thus communicate with you and to ex-
pound as usual the high moral truths con-
tanned in the Holy Scriptures"
I'VE are all so glad to hear It, Brother
Stanley Proceed with the lesson as soon
as you may desire the class is eager to
get every word that comes from their dear
old teacher"
at is indeed gratifying to learn that your
interest and love for me has not dimln-
ished during my enforced absence. Now,
owing to the 'wide-Open policy of the city
and state IN general, l thought perhaps 1t
would be well to dispense with the regular
lesson and talk to you on the evil effects
Of drink, and the tendency among the peO-
pie to trample the prohibltory law under
foot, and possibly little politics on the
drink?"
" Look not upon the wine when it is red.
1t biteth like a serpent and stingeth like
an adder etc"
Good. Do you suppose that Marsh Muir
dock knows that?
Evidently not"
''It Is too true, my dear children. His
early education has been sadly neglected
in this regard, and / think he has never
been blessed with religious environments.
However, In this connection desire TO say
that in my opinion Governor Leedy is en-
tirely to blame for It, II he had renovated
the moral atmosphere of our beloved city
and thrown around Marsh such associates

BoYLE'S SPEECH AT coLunBus.
Makes a Fair and Frank Appeal for

Attorney General Boyle spoke to a large
crowd at Columbus Saturday. He made
speech so far above that Of the ordi-
nary politician that 1t took with all who
heard him.
w. q. Stanley was there also and made
speech to a separate audience at the
same time.
In the course Of his speech Mr. Boyle
said:
A. political argument Is simply discus
sion OF certain business questions that af-
feet the whole body Of the people. It Is my
purpose to approach these questions with q
spirit of fairness, and endeavor II / can to
demonstrate that the best interests Of the
people would be subserved by their support

but a great family. Political parties rep
resent policies that relate TO the develop
ment and best interests OF this great public
family. Certain men and women who con-
stitute a. part Of the body polite champion

family champion an opposition policy

1t might be we'll for me to first briefly
analyZe the arguments advanced by our
Republican opponents. 1t IL urged by them
that there Is long line OF legislative HIS
tory back OF the Republican party upon
which they may consclentiOusly rely for
support In this contest They claim that
the Republican party has spread upon the
statute books Of Kansas many laws that
look to the protection OF labor; they point
with pride to the homestead law; they call
attention to the mechanics lien law; they
tell the merchant who furnishes material
that the Republican party has protected
him and thrown safeguards around him.
In brief, they go through a long list Of
laws that they assert have been spread
upon the statutes Of Kansas by the Repub-
lican party.
And for this reason they claim that they
should receive your support. Let us briefly
examine this position, discover II II is ger
name to the present issue In this campaign.
We are making no fight against all the laws
that the Republican party has spread upon
the statutes that are beneficial TO the peo-
pie. We do not claim that these laws should
be repealed. We give them every credit
for all the good things they have dome.

Ar 3 o'clock last week Bob Nc
Reynolds was three laps and two
poetic feet ahead Of Strang in the race
for county attorney. Both we're badly
winded, however Subsequently by
loudly crying "I'm lawyer" Strang
managed to dlscom6t McReynolds,
who in the exordium of the moment
threw his boots and allowed Strang to
pass the wire by mere graft. This
weeks running will likely prove more
spirited, since McReynolds has mem
orized the index of the 'o3 statutes
and is in better form to combat
Strang's extravagant assertions. The
crowd will be larger this week, as
it is quietly rumored that McReynolds
WILL in addition to his other tactics
attempt to land on Strang's beak with
a hunk Of poetry.

JrDGE KE4rON A SURE THING.

JCDGE KEdTON A SURE THISG.
Evidence is sccumulating that the
next lower house OF congress will be
Overwhelmingly Den ocratic. This
should spur every anti-Republican to
renewed effort for Judge Keaton.
While there is not the slightest doubt
of his election by handsome major
ity. our people should remember that
the larger his maj ority the more GER
tain will he be able to get through
congress legislation favorable to the
territory. When Judge Keaton downs
Flynn and has to his credit side six or
seven thousand majority, he will be
able to command the Democratic ma
jority in congress for any thing he
wants for his people. That is some
thing for the people OF Oklahoma to
think about.

MERELY 4 CASE or FLYNN AND HIM
SELF

SELF.
Thus far during the present congress
sional campaign, Dennis Flynn has
produced no argument or given any
reasons WY he is any more entitled to
be elected to congress this year than
he was in 1896, when the voters of the
territory, tired and weary Of a contin.
uous performance OF Flynnism, quietly
gathered at the ballot box and adriotly
placed the stuffed apostle Of free
homes on the dry dock.
II the services Of Flynn could be
dispensed with two years ago, why
should they be required now?
Flynn has been traitor to free
homes from first to last lie has used
this issue in every campaign to the ex-
clusion Of every other topic. He has
lied to, deceived and duped the people,
and in this campaign seeks to bolster
up his falling strength by utilizing
alleged extracts froH the Congress
sional Record, giving flaming enco-
niums OF the "hustling little man from
Oklahoma"
Flynn has done nothing for okla
homa. In fact, he does not live here.
AS professional lobbyist he lives in
Washington. During the past two
years he was a member OF the power
ful Indian lobby and raked OF S35, 900.
His influence is now waning, and he
is anxious to recoup by returning to
Washington clothed with the powers
Of delegate
Flynn is overwhelmingly selfish,
That is the keynote Of his campaign
Flynn and himself
1t is high time to try new blood
The election of Judge Keaton means
legislation for oklahome-free homes
and ultimately statehood. Mr.. Keaton
will be in accord with the majority
and entering congress as democrat
he will be invited to participate in
party conferences, where the actual
work OF congress is done. The verv
fact that Mr.. Callahan was Pc
and therefore unable to take p--r In
strictly Democratic conferences, was
the only handicap to his record during
the pas two years. Mr.. Keston will
figure with tie dominating element on
the hoor and committee rooms, and
thus be enabled to place oklahoma's S
interests To the front
So away with Flynn and his brsg-
gadacio and pull for Keaton.
The Guthrie daily leader. [volume] (Guthrie, Okla.) 1893-1996, 1898-10-24

The Congressional Record Flynn is
quoting from so literally was undou bt-
edly the only one printed-the whole
output Of aniedition de luxe, inscribed
and dedicated to platformless candi-
dates OF the campaign of '9s by its
compiler, T. b. Reed let all. We
would like to borrow Mr.. Flynn's Con-
gressional Record; the one we have
bearing the same dates doesn't give
AZ the news. 1t is also weak in it's
bouquet column-if we are to believe
Mr.. Flynn's fragrant extract Of roses.

is getting hard up for material. The
