BIG STICK MAGIC
LANTERN SHOWS.

The constitution of the United
States and the enabling act are ex-
pressly adopted by the constitution
Therefore. anything in the constitu-
'tion that conflicts with eithcr Is nuga-
tory That which is nugatory does
not invalidate that which is good ard
lawful. VIII the President then kill
the whole constitution to reach one of
these nugatory points? It looks like
he had given the Oklahoma gang that
went to Washington to understand
nay, at least not now
II there Is one single word or sem
tence in the constitution OF the new
state contrary TO the United States
constitution. that word or sentence is
void and never can be law, not even
II adopted by the people, proclaimed
by the President and retained in the
constitution. The very first time any
conflict was found at any time after
statehood between the state cunstitu-
ton and the United States Constitu-
ton, any court would hold that point
in the state constitution Absolutely
void.
These propositions are advanced
merely to show there is entirely too
much scope and weight being given to
the duty of the President. ito issue
his proclamation announcing the re-
suit of the election to use the very
words of the enabling act.
Congress, and not the President
admits new states. as will appear
from the words of the enabling act
Immediately following those quoted:
And thereupon the proposed state of
Oklahoma shall he deemed admitted
by Congress into the Union, under and
by virtue of this act, Oil an equal foot
ing with the original states"
These magic lantern pictures of the
big stick shown by Oklahoma state
hood obstructionists are simply cheap

strenuous life. but he and his attorney
general are not, as Joe Cannon would
put IL, "darnec fools"

G ORDERS
FROM WASHINGTON,


Local Republicans having now re-.
ceived orders from the bosses at
Washington will proceed to put out a
ticket This is good sample of Re
publican methods. They may, and
doubtless do. suit the larger part of
the party, else they would not be so
submissive to boss rule.
Until now the bosses said to all
aspirants for Office and to their people.
stand back; wait for orders" and
they stood back That is, nearly all
of them did OF course some of the
king bees like McGuire did not obey
the orders they had issued for the
observance of the common people.
Then, too. they did not have the slate
fixed 10 siit them, and again, the
McGnire wing had much hoped to
head off an election. They beiieved
in letting well enough alone The
common Republican can now propose
candidates, but the. bosses will dis,
pose
This star chamber method OF kand-
ling politics is the distinguishing ele-
ment in Republican politics. It con
trasts sharply with Democratic meth
ods, which are based and operated on
Ethe theory and practice of that good
old party maxim, Let the people
rule"
Democrats have no authorized
bosses to wire them from Washington
what TO do and what to think This
sometimes makes Democratic politics
seem less sharp and spectacular. but
In the end Il wins because the orders
and power come up from the masses
and not down from few designing
bosses.
This present example OF the Okla
hOma bosses at Washington sending
orders to local Republicans telling
them what to do Is only In line with
customary methods and will be obey
ed by the masses--this time, how
ever, not without some serious fight
ing.
Young men who are this year com
ing to their majority and pondering
over the question OF ruling or being
rfled will do well 10 think on this
great fundamental difference between
the parties.
