sMIrH IND PEnKINS

Winheld Smith was sworn In as
councilman from the Arst ward four
days prior to the meeting of the new
council. He Immediately began dig-
ging and from his research several
good resolutions were presented at
the council meeting Thursday night.
One, however. had TO do with a vote
of thanks to body of men who invit-
ed the councilmen to banquet. Mr..
Smith wanted this vote Of thanks ex-
plunged from the council records In
this he erred. His action showed bad
taste and was silly. Smith had 10th
ing to do with the old council and he
Is not held accountable for the acts of
that body. Mr.. Smith has long been
known as a rip-snorter, He has abili-
ty and is aware of it. In body OF
sluggish men he finds a paradise. He
can make them do just as he wills,
using them as automatoms. He al
ready has cast partial hypnotic spell
over the new council. So long as Mr..
Smith exerts his capacity and ability
in the interests of Guthrie and all the
wards, he will be supported by the
taxpayers. He is privileged to eat
raw meat, inject red pepper and trip
the Highland sun dance on the frames
Of Councilmen House, Hewitt, Mabon,
Wolff and Perkins until he is tired;
the public cares not. But as soon as
he departs from the paths of good
taste and righteousness a howl will 60
up and rend the heavens with 'too
much Smith" While being aggres-
sive Winfield should not be premature;
let him chant the golden rule, curb
the desire to suppress the rights Of
others and pull in everything border
ing on the overbeAring. The people
of the First ward elected Smith
and those of the Fifth ward elected
Perkins. They are antipodRl aftini-
tives. They are Republicans, likewise
unique.

few water mains laid on four streets
The cost, size OF mains, contractors,
number Of wo kmen and general plan
of system of sewerage are all OF in
terest to the taxpayer and he should
be fully acquainted with and posted
on these matters before being called
upon to cast ballot. The quest on
OF sewerage should be non partisan.
A proposition asking taxpayers TO vote
bonds for sewerage and an adequate
water supply should never be tackled
to the tail Of partisan ticket or be
presented on general election day.
Such a proposition has no business in
politics when the money of taxpayers
is concerned The question should be
calmly and intelligently presented TO
the people columns OF matter should
be published anent the plans and
every means taken TO throw light on
the subject. There should be no dark
places on a proposition Of this kind
raxpayers shuu even the appearance
OF shadiness or skullduRgery ip such
matters.
That Guthrie needs a system Of sew
erage aud on additional water supply
no one will deny. The town Is grow
ing and proper and substantial
system of drainage is required. But
the manner and method of obtaining
such boon is another question, and
one which should be thoroughly agi-
tated and settled amisAbly before the
taxpayers are called upon TO vote.
Let the city council consider this
matter in its proper light.
The Guthrie daily leader. [volume] (Guthrie, Okla.) 1893-1996, 1900-04-14

that this is generally the harder task Of
the two. Guthrie needs the pushing
of oil public improvements as rapidly
as possible. This will be good for the
workingmen. good for the property
owners. good for the business men,
good for every body. II IL is the pur-
pose Of the council at the outset TO
engage in pickering, plugging and
knocking and pursue policy Of quar-
rel and do nothing, the taxpayers
should take the matter in hand aod
nail tight the doors of the city hall
The people are tired Of rascality and
buffoonery in the municipal body
There have been fools in every council
elected in this city, but, happily, for
the most part they were speedily sup
pressed There is much to be done to
make Guthrie liveable city. Streets
and sidewalks should be given atten-
tion and sanitation looked after. AS
Oklahoma towns grow older the stand
ing Of the public morals grow higher.
A whole lot OF things must be toler.
ated in every town, but they should
not be allowed to rule. The part Of
the community that stands for cleanli-
ness and good order is the part that is
ultimately most weighty. This is a
good thing TO remember. There Is
much for the new council to do. aud
IL Is not necessary TO conduct business
on political lines. All Guthrie's citi-
zens are loyal to her interests no mat
tar what their partisan affiliations and
feelings. Guthrie people stand up for
Guthrie and the council should keep
this fact uppermost.
Gentlemen OF the council, steer to
the right. Some OF you, mayhaps.
aspire TO more important trusts and
would gain the confidence OF the
people. Do business and satisfy the
people that you are worthy OF con6-
denee. Much may be learned from
other towns. Let the councilmen keep
their eyes on municipal affairs in
Kansas City and 81. Louis. The wise
man is he who lets the other fellow
have his costly experiences for him.

cause you are stupid enough to. vote
for Republican candidates for Office
who rob you with protective tariff.
Coal mining Is now controlled by
the trust. There is plenty Of coal. II
ought TO BE cheap. 1t can be sold at
a profit TO Englishmen for IS cents a
ton, but the trust limits the supply,
forces up the price and makes the
American consumer pay whatever It
pleases to demand.
Nor is American coal the only article
sold cheaper in Europe than at home
Oil is less expensive abroad, still costs
less. Americans are foolish enough
TO establish an Of money that makes
the plain people poems, pays them
starvation wages for their labor and
charges them extortionate prices for
American products.
How long will the foolish voters of
this country stick to the Republican
party and vote starvation and poverty
for themselves?
viii the people allow themselves to
pc bought and sold like chattels by
the trust managers and then robbed
and starved for their loyalty to partyp
Perhaps they will continue to rank
themselves with the Republicans un-
til actual want drives them to meas-
ures for self.protection.
Everybody but othe men Of money
suffers under the oppression produced
by the protective tariff. The great
question now is how long will the
people submit2.
