MAKES UNANSWERARLE Argument
Senator Gore and Miss Kate
Bernard will speak on the bank
at 8 o'clock this evening.
Everybody is invited to hear
them.

simply because by its adoption they
would lose their jobs and lose their
graft
The speaker paid his compliments
to the Guthrie State Capital showing
what their printing graft amounted
to yearly Said the speaker, "In IL
months the Capital received $4,000
for supplies from Oklahoma, the real
price Of which should have been s27,
600 according to prices in their own
price list. OF course the Capital and
its gang Of grafters don't want state
hood.
"The railroads don't want state
hood, for in the last IL years they
they have overcharged the people in
the territories fifty four millions Of
dollars, and the consuming and pro-
ducing public has paid this freight
bill. Statehood and state laws would
compel the railroads to equalize their
freight rates. Laws are needed to
control the coal trust, the lumber
trust, the Standard Oil; and this
great democratic constitution sup
plies just such laws. The constitu-
tion gives the power to prevent mono
poles and trusts
"The republicans claim that there
is too much legislation in the consti-
tuition There hasn't been consti-
tuition drawn up in forty years that
didn't contain legislation The tax
laws Of Oklahoma are wholly made
quate and the legislation in the con-
stitution corrects these. The anti
pass laws make it a crime for any Of
ficial to hold a free pass over a rail-
road and hold his office. The fellow
servan law divides the responsible
lity between plaintiff and defend
amt The constitution settles the
the question of child labor, and It
also forces corporations to arbitrate
in the interest Of preserving peace
Be you democrat or republican, If
you want to understand the eonsti-
tuition, read it yourself. Take no ones
word. Do not criticize what You do
not know.
Eminent men have said it is the
best constitution ever written-sucE
men as William ]. Bryan, Gov. La
Toilette Of Wisconsin and Judge
Rainer The last two are republi

trying hard to throw off the influ-
ence Of the lumber trust and is soon
to have a constitution patterned after

! Mr. Haskell paid his respects to
Garfield and Taft, pertinently ask
ing who paid the bills for their spe-
cial cars? No favors are shown dem
ocratic candidates. While the rail-
roads are supplying official private
cars to. the republicans, a democrat
can hardly get away from a flag sta
tion at three cents a mile.
The speaker said that he desired

The speaker then outlined mis- po-
sition and what he stood for in the
constitutional convention from its in
itial session. He opposed all intrigue
and professional lobbying-they were
absolutely barred, and corporations,
trusts and their paid hirelings could
weld no influence in the convention.
The result was papers were subsidiz-
ed, hirelings employed to sow dis
sension and the constitution was So
verely criticized even before it was
written.
Mr.. Haskell referred to his record
in Putnam county, Ohio, calling at
tention to the we'll known letter SO
frequently seen in print, signed by
Eight odd'' Of the best people in the
county, both democrats and republi-
cans, nearly all high public officials;
and he further observed that the real
proof Of his strength with the people
was the fact that such men as Bill
C.rdwell, Jim Jacobs and L. r Rus
sell were against him.
Continuing, the speaker said that
the inherent right Of self-govenment
was born in all liberty loving people
GAS was the cry Of taxation with
out representation in Boston narbor
when the tea was thrown overheard

ainst carpetbag government. This
same idea has also been misconstrued
often BY calling it protection to Am.
erican industry and the result has
only been the making Of the million
aires such as Carnegie. Do you know
how this so-called protection operates
today2 Ten dollars worth Of wire
and naiis simply maans $3.50 ia val
ne and $3.50 tax protection to stee
trust, and the consumer foots tho
bill
Regarding the right and fitness q
the two territories to become a state
the speaker quoted statistics to snow
that Oklahoma win go into the Union
with more than four times the popula-
ton and wealth Of any Of the last ten
states that have entered the Union
The population viii be 100000; Tho
crops, oil and coal, $6,O0O0OO; th'
taxable property s206,OOO,00O; will

railroad. Instead Of being the 46tf
state, Oklahoma viii enter tae Union
as the oath. state in point Of pop.
ulation, wealth and crops.
"The constitution is the all-import-
iant question Of the hour. It is moth
/ ling If not democratic. It is for all
/ elements and classes. especially fol
the farmer and laboring man they
are the great common people, the real
i creators Of wealth who want good gov
lammsnt and protection This The
democratic party that created the con
stitution, stands for. The republicans
want to kill the constitution and state
hood so that the carpetbaggers may
continue to hold their jobs. If the
the democrats had framed the Ten
Commandments and the Lords Prayer
into a constitution, and the republi-
licans had recognized them, the carpet
bapeers would kick. and kick hard.

on Southern pine lumber. The railroads

gether and increased the rate cents

the matter 10 the commission and got

ried IL 10 the Supreme Court but lost
their case The effect OF this Was that
the railroads had 10 repay overchaTges
TO the shippers who demanded them. The
total overcharges amounted TO over So

reparation expired only s., coo had been
