BRYAN pEMANps PROOF.

No one having the least conception
of the kind Of man William J. Bryan
really Is had the least idea he would
do other than stand on the firing line
when one Of his chosen chiefs was re-
ceiving the fire from the poop deck Of
present-lay Republican methods. Cow
ernor Haskell was the one central fig
urein this campaign under Mr. Bryan's
orders who can not be suppressed by
inuendo; nor can one bluff him into
silence because. by prearrangemcnt a
Republican whom President Roosevelt
had determined to ruin. was first as
sailed by Hearst, the puppet of the
very predatory wealth he declares he
seeks 10 subdue,
Governor Haskell flatly denied the
charge he had ever been connected
with Standard Oil, and asked Mr.
Hearst to prove mis- case. Mr. Hearst
refuses to speak with Governor Has
kell-w whether he thinks he IS too good
for Haskell or too bad he sayeth not
Neither does It matter which he thinks
on that topic. But he had no oppor.
tunlty to decline without admission Of
being a falsifier Governor Haskell
has rights all antagonists respect He
wishes a trial by the class OF men who
make newspapers, and Mr.. Hearst re-
fuses that. Mr.. Hearst Is running
away from his own assertions, while
the militant Haskell asks that the hid
den enemy come out. be counted, or
retract former charges.
Mr.. Bryan has changed the program
not a little; he has notified the mono
maniac at Washington as ne should
have been addressed his faith, believ.
ing that right should prevail
To add to this, Governor Haskell
will stop long enough for all charges
TO be proven. Following hard upon the
I truth, he would resign If proven. OF

~ rur IEicsL AZURE DID

WHAT THE LEGISLATURE DID
Nowhere could be found briefer
and more truthful review Of the inn
portant work OF Oklahoma's first
state legislature then A. found in the
democratic state Pla slfflqf adopted at
TULSA. The laws esn@cially COM
mended are enumerated az fellows
First: The creation OF banking
board and the depositors' guaranty
fund. making bank deposit In the
state Of Oklahoma as good As cash
in hand. and thereby bringing into
this state from other states, deposits
equal to ten per cenum Of all the
money owned by the people Of our.
state
Second: Making provision for the
loan Of school moneys OF the state
upon high class securities, and giving
preference for the same to the farm
ers OF our state.
Third The enactment OF z state
printing board and state printing sys-
TEN by which the price of statutes of
the state are reduced from S21 to
$3.50. aad the session laws from 50
and 81 to so cents each.
Fourth: The enactment Of sepa-
rate coach law for the white and col.
ore' races.
Fifth: The enactment of a primary
election law. BY which the people
choose their own candidates and
through which candidates for the
United States senate must pass the
expression OF the viii of the people.
sixth: The initiative and heferen-
dun act IS .!'e most complete and fin
ished product of the kind ever writ
ten into law.
Seventh The antilobbying law
which prevents and Furnishes corrup-
tion bA'ore legislatures, boards OF
county commissioners, city councils
and school boards.
Eighth: To make ample provision
for the punishment OF public officers
for accepting passes and other fav'
ors from railroads, telegraph. express
and other companies in this state
Ninth: The graduated land tax pre-
vents land monopoly in the state.
Tenth; The graduated inheritance
tax. placing proper burdens upon
large estates.
Eleventh: The enactment OF the
gross receipts tax upon oil, gas. ex
press. telegraph, telephone and other
companies owning intangible prop
erty and Incomes. requiring them tc
pay their mst proportion OF revenue.
Twelfth: For the enactment of the
eight-hour a day provision for labor
in the public service.
Thirteenth: For having provided
for a full state government, the pur
chase Of State supplies at one-hal
the cost OF the state of Kansas for In
ferior service.
Fourteenth; For having enacted
complete system Of Agricultural am
mechanical education for tbs children
Of TIE state. The same being th'
most thorough and complete OF an.
state in the union.
We commend the legislature o
Oklahoma for passing the separate
school law which provides for sepa
rata schools for the white and ne
gro races. We further endorse tn
provision permitting negroes TO selec
their own school trustees, from thei
own race. for their own separat
schools at the same time the cor
verse to be natural that the whit
race, which under our law include
the Indian race, are permitted to 8,
iect their own trustee for thei
schools.

POOR MEN LOOK 70 sRYAN.

John w. Hall writing to the New

as to his political views:
-Four years ago | voted for Roose-

stands for the rights of all the people.
He has finally risen to the heights os
the true and new Democracy and the
champion OF the old The poor man
has not had friend in the white
house since Lincoln died; today he
LOOKS to Bryan.
IT'S many a day since Lincoln died
But now today hope, angel eyed,
Sits down beside the poor mans
door;
Today JpriEgs promise IN the west.
