new lines would become a matter Of
political strength. The sections sparse.

The laws OF Oklahoma have been
fully as Satisfactory to inc railroads

been suggested that they did so. Men
who have had the courage to try to
secure some relief In the Legislature
have found themselves in unhappy po-
sitions. But this is a question far above
personal matters. Those in charge Of
railroad affairs are smart enough to
employ only those who are capable

railroad can only have one master AS

Il is usually the AK of the railroad. He
dares not side-step for moment.
There is nothing to his detriment eX-

is a merit except that It places him
where he cannot be depended upon in

And we want a primary election law
that our nominations for public office
may not be made by conventions com
posed Of the holders of free passes We
should have thia before nominations
for the constitutional convention are
made But the only way to get il Is
to call the territorial Legislature Ia
special session. If the territorial gov
ernor is in favor Of government by
the people instead OF by the railroads
as some OF his utterances Indicate he
will call an extra session. A more
pressing necessity never existed. He
can not be and is not unconscious OF
the fact that the railroads are now In
control, and he only can start the
movement by which relief is assured
And while the people have no power
to elect United States senator's they
have the power to dictate who they
shall be. provided they elect honest
men 10 the legislature The primary
election law should provide that the
Fseveral political parties may express
at the polls their choice for the senate.
II will then be easy to pledge all can
didates for the legislature to abide by
the choice and. II they 60 not. 1t will
be known at once that their votes have
been purchased. But the large major

ture.
The executive and the legislative
branches of the government have not
always agreed. Had such been the case
the people might well have been sus.
picious of the intelligence or capacity
OF either or both. There were too many
important questions taken up and com.
pleted, subjects on which honest men
might honestly disagree to warrant the
possibility of the session being without
its sharp differences.
Previous legislatures differed and
went wild. This Legislature has ratified
its bones of contention and behaved IT,
self. 1t has dealt with problems OF
vital moment to the present and fu-
ture welfare of the Territory. II has
held true TO its promises to the people.
IL has refused to approve the usual
amount of vicious legislation that al.
ways creeps into every Legislature.

and financing of the county system of

OIL MANIpUi.AToRs DEFEATED

When the Legislature put an end to
the notorious oil bill II went on rec
ord as having opened its eyes to one
OF the most vicious pieces of legisla-
ton that has been offered TO a Ha-
waiian legislative body in years. The
character and course of the oil bill
are not pleasant to contemplate except
that II is not only proper but manda-
tory that the people should be ever
watchful Of, and guarded in the future,
against measures that would debauCh
the public safety so that a few addi-
tional dollars might be made by an
interested few.
Although leading feature was made
Of the provisions for the flash test
OF fuel oils in this bill, the real joker
was the wide open and revenue de-
Itroying regulation for handling GER.
tain grades of refined oils. This stu.
alton was pointed out by the Bulletin
and Senator McCandless' Senate Com
mittee did royal good work for the
people in dissecting the bill and giving
1t what semblance Of decency II pos.
scssed
There has been much that was dark
and dubious associated with the trail
CT the bill up to the time of the ex.
posture, in consequence of which 1t
was finally killed. The measure was
nursed amid the surroundings of the
great monopoly. Its advocates evi.
, gently fearful Of presenting the oil
question on its merits did their ut.
most to befog the people, throw dust
and create the impression that the
great oil monopoly was opposing it.
Immediately these false leaders were
eyposed-which was promptly and cas-.
lily done-they discovered that the

the flash test. II this were true the
advocates knew II in the first place.
