Bulletin consult the Criminal
Statute of Iowa, for by so doing,
he will find out that already he
has violated it. by his threats.
1t demonstrates not only the
weakness of the candidates. but
the consciousness of such weak
ness on the part of the Editor.
Nothing that the Review could
say could contain stronger in
dictment against the democratic
ticket. 1t leads the people to in
qulre what man or men on that
ticket are so vulnerable that such
defense need be made. Very
naturally, they ask who it is;
whose character must be kept
from the public at any cost. AL
ready the Bulletins article has
done more to injure the demo-
cratic ticket in the estimation of
the people than any thing the
Review could say.

knew and approved of that plank in
the republican platform before it was
adopted by the convention. 1t means
clear saving of almost enough to
pay the treasurer's salary. We be-
lieve the banks would gladly pay at
least 2 per cent on the county S
average deposit. Perhaps they would
pay more There has been an average
of about fifty thousand dollars for
years past and with the additional
court house tax there will be more.
At 2 per cent the interest would
amount to $1,000 a year and $500
would probably be nearer the right
figure. Without attaching any blame
in the past, for it has grown up into
a custom in this county, we believe
the time has come for an "About
face'' on this proposition. If you
want to benefit by the interest on
your taxes. If you are willing to
see your taxes reduced. If you be-
lieve you are entitled to interest on
your money instead of the county
treasurer, we would urge you to vote
and work for the election of U. G..
johnson.

A PARABLE

Once upon a time the Head of a
Family went to a Neighbor who was
going to Town, and told him to buy a
suit of cloths for his Son. He even
paid the Neighbor for attending to
the business for him,
The Head of the Family told the
Neighbor that he wanted a very fine
suit, but he did not wish to spend
more than $500 for it, and he handed
the Neighbor the money for the
purchase. The Neighbor went to

HUNTING A scAPEGoAT.

Just as was anticipated. the attempt
is now made to shove all the mistakes
of the democratic board onto the
shoulders of Henry Maynard the one
lone republican on the board. In
this connection we would call the
voters attention to few facts.
First-That Mr.. Maynard lacks four
months of having served two years
on the board.
Second-That the architect was
selected, the plans accepted. and all
the main contracts were let BEFORE
Mr.. Maynard was member and when
the board was solidly democratic.
Third-That Mr. Maynard cannot
be he'd res ponsible for any of the
many plumbers committed before he
was a member and that in so far as
the plans were concerned the building
was practically completed when he en-.
tered upon his duties.
Fourth-That Mr.. Maynard was the
only new member of the board and
that he was obliged to take hold of
the work not at its beginning. but in
the very middle of things.
Fifth-That during his entire term
of service he has been in minority of
four to one. That the democrats of
the board assumed all responsibility
and must now assume it. without any
attempt to shoulder it on Mr.. Maynard.

This statement will possibly be
met with denial, but at heart the

as G. A. Walsh and j. B. Romans
know that it is so. When democracy
gets rid of its Taggarts, its Belmonts,
its Sullivans and it's Tillmans it will
be time enough to talk of voting the

within the criminal statutes,
should we care to take the matter
to the courts, the Bulletin threat
ems the Review editor with dire
exposure should he make the per-
sonal character of the members
of the democratic ticket an issue.
The Review wishes it understood
that it neither seeks nor avoids
newspaper controversy of this
kind. They are usually, how
ever, disagreeable, two-sided
affairs, provocative of much Bit
terness and but little else. Some
time ago the Denison newspapers
dropped this sort of thing. we
think, to the improvement of
both. We would not willingly
therefore provoke another ''news-
paper fight
This is neither that we fear
assault or that we are afraid that
we should be unable to keep up
our end of the debate. On the
other hand the Review does not
intend to be 1nuzzled during this
campaign. 1t intends to discuss
the comparative merits of the
candidates and especially does it
believe it proper to discuss the
public.acts of officials. IF the mem
bers of he boardIfor instance have
acted unwisely in the past, that
is good and sufficient reason to
advance why these members
should not be reelected and we
would be negligent in our duty
did we fail to present the facts to
the people.
1t is misfortune for one rum
ming for office to have his candi-
dacy espoused by newspaper
which exposes him to unfriendly
criticism. A candidate is better
off without the support of any
newspaper, than of one which
either directly, or Indirectly, con-
tributes to an impression of
weakness on the part of such
candidate.
The conduct of the Bulletin, is
in point, wherein it expresses
fear that during the campaign,
the Review may comment upon
the shortcomings of some of the
candidates on the Democratic
ticket.
Why does the Bulletin charge
that the Review will take this
liberty, and why should the
thought of such course being
pursued by the Review worry the
Bulletin? Why does it anticipate
that serious consequences may
follow the Reiew's criticism of
some of the candidates? Why
should the Bulletin threaten that
if the Review does point out the
weakness of the Democratic tick
ct, that it will retaliate by ex-
posing the editor of the Review?
Does the Bullein think this is an
answer to a criticism against a
candidate running for office?
How does it vindicate the cam
didate, or show that he is worthy
of support. to charge that the
editor Of the Review is guilty of
all the crimes. known to the
law? The Bulletin seems to cor
TESS that the character of some of
the candidates is not the best,
and then seeks to avoid the criti-
clsm by saying that he is about
to attack the Review editor.
Does the Bulletin wish to confess
that it is driven so far in order to
bolster up the character of it's
candidates?
We are not making any charge
against any candidate on the
Democratic ticket. The Bulletin
does this, and would have the
voter believe that a charge so
grave can be met by showing
that someone else is not what

LAST BIG WOLF HUNT
viii be Pulled off in the Pasture Early
in September LawtOn,
Aug. s:

1t has been proposed that citizens
of southwest Oklahoma arrange
for final wolf drive TO be given
in the big pasture in the early part
of September, in celebration of the
wiping away of the last dim tracks
of the cattlemen and the coming of
the men with tine plow and the hoe.
AS soon as the proclamation Of
the president and the rules and re-
gulations of the secretary have
been issued, the date of the begin.
ming of the sale fixed by these. it is
quite probable that a committee Of
those most interested in the coyote
chasing win make arrangements
for the proposed big event.
The annual Thanksgiving chase
which has been one of the biggest
attractions in this section of Okla
homa for the past years, cannot be
pulled off this year, for on the date
the selling of the land will be un-
der way.
Hence il is necessary to have the
big drive earlier in the autumn, if
it is to be had at all. The old time
hunters with dogs who live around
the borders OF the big pasture are
anxious to have one last grand
chase, and many from the outside
are no less interested.

THE MASS MEETING DOES SOME
MORE MILLING AND AP-
POINTS A COMMITTEE
CONFER WITH Mr.. HAMPTON
Fair Talk is as Long Drawn out as
Statehood Just Like Conference
Committee

They met, talked and appointed
a committee. Such was the net
outcome of the fair mass meeting
yesterday, but a number of valu-
able suggestions were brought out
in the discussion. For three months
the proposition has been hanging
fire, but it looks like it is coming
to head now and will be settled
within few days.
Very little opposition to the
county fair idea appeared in the
meeting. Judge Williams, w, M.
Edwards, Clay Donovan, A. 5.
Gilkey, w. S. Staley. Bob HUI
man, in fact nearly all the speakers
advocated it. The principal point
brought out in the discussion was
the necessity of making a written
agreemen; with Mr.. Hampton as
to the fair grounds. Mr.. Hampton
proposed to put the grounds in
shape for the fair, erect buildings
for the exhibits and hang up
purses for the races and take the
gate receipts for his trouble, the
citizens to furnish premiums on the
farm exhibits.
Another plan that was proposed
was for the citizens TO lease the
grounds and take entire charge. A
committee was appointed to confer
with Mr.. Hampton and report to
the full committee Thursday on the
details of a contract that might be
arranged. A. S, Gilkey, W. M.
Edwards, B. B. Bridges and N. NJ.
Williams were appointed.
A. S. Gilkey strongly advocated
the idea Of organizing permanent
fair association. interesting the
farmers in the same to the extent
of taxing stock in it. He discussed
the benefits of such fair in the
way Of improving the standard Of
products in the country.
Considerable discussion was in
dulged in as to how long the fair
should continue, Mr.. Staley and
Mr.. Leech took the position that
it should last at least FIVE days.
There were fewer chances to take
on the weather and better prospect
of success for a long fair than for a
short one. Judge Williams propos-
ed shorter period. make it lively
while it lasts" was his idea.
A.C. Jackman offered some valu-
able suggestions on the matter Of
providing such variety of attrac-
tious as would interest every one
and draw all classes.
w. L. Sawyer thought the pres
ent fair should be carried out with
view to organizing a permanent
association at the close and F. E.
Riddle favored the same idea.
Gate charges were discussed at
some length. 1t was the concensus
of opinion that these should be as
low as possible te meet actual ex-
penses and thus encourage the
farmers to bring their families and

STATES POSITION ON ISSUES
A Lifelong Democrat and has Spent
Many Years in the
Territory.

Lee Cruce, of Ardmore, candi-
for the democratic nomination for
governor, was in the city today
getting acquainted and going from
here to Ryan where he speaks at
the picnic tomorrow.
He is making an active campaign
and is sure to be strong factor in
the race.
Mr.. cruce is president of the
Ardmore National Bank, having
been engaged in the banking busi.
ness for FIVE years, previous to
which time he was a practicing at
torney. He has lived in the terri.
tory fifteen years and his early life
was spent IN Kentucky.
When asked for his position on
the main issues before the people,
Mr. Cruce replied;
II favor the removal Of restric.
tions from all Indian lands, except
a reasonable homestead tor the full
blood. g
II favor liberal provisions for
public schools and am in favor of
the state buying the segregated
coal lands and holding them as a
source of income for the schools.
The surplus Of these lands should
be sold to actual farmers on easy
payments, not more than 100 acres
to be sold to any one man.
81 think convict labor should be
used in working the public roads.
Corporations are as necessary
to the development Of a country as
individuals but they should be
made to respect the law. We

forbidden to hold land in the state
and corporation land holdings
should be limited to the actual
