Of campaign falseboods will not be the
whole stock in trade of those who 90 about
the country on the mission Of stump
speaking Every lie ought to be branded
as to that matter. but the organization Of
Annanies clubs is being overworked.
When a political trickster gets trapped
he yells liar" sometimes to defect public
attention from himself Let us have more
decency on the stump and less profanity,
not to say vulgarity.
There is need of law to protect the
people from insult by those campaign
railers who storm and swear and violate
all the decencies and courtesies on the
stump In civil affairs the law affords
every man a remedy for wrong, and no
man can take the law in his own hands.
This law should be applied to stump
speakers and a severe penalty imposed on
every man who becomes so brutal as to
forget the presence Of ladies, or of gentle
men either as to taat matter Let the
people of Oklahoma step into the breach
and lead in this much needed reform.
Ler US have decency in politics.
