reading to him the Hearst charges

slider the matter, the telephone call

lection Of the letter dater 26 Broad

lon labor representatives approved
my veto. l itnpe the president will
survive this vc;o Of a local bill and
permit lis to ,v:n "i!" local affairs.
The president complains that we
removed certain professors from our
State university, our three State nor
NAL schools and preparatory school in
violation of civil service rules. That
is rIie president. in his usual impe'u
o<iiy and reckless disregard Of 9TH
ers. miSState< the facts. Less than
one-fifth Of the faculties are chang
ed. All changes were for good cause
other than politics and done by
boards of regents and not by the gov
ernor. The president complains that
there are several suits pending against
me to reclaim Creek Indian land. The
president should have gone further
and said that I was not a dealer in
Indian land and only came in as
subsequent purchaser and was only
incidentally a party without personal
interest at all, and especially he should
have said that it is quite apparent
that those who are being sued in those
land cases appear to be, and apparent
ly are, the victims Of political chica-
merry, which the president can better
explain than I.
'EIn short, the president and Mr..
Hearst picked the wrong man and are
now driven into ward politics rather
than surrender like men.
''The president assumes that all
Oklahomans are grafters just because
his territorial associates justified that
name; that all ex-railroad contractors
are bad just because Paul Morton
needed his protection; that we all in
Oklahoma violate the civil service law
just because Mr.. Roosevelt removed
the best United States marshall we
ever had, the only reason being he
voted for a good Democrat instead Of
a bad Republican and then the pre>i~
dent appointed his cousin to fill the
vacancy.
GAS to the reports of labor on a
child labor bill, and my work in the
interest Of labor, Mr.. President, please
remember with me it's doing things.
With you it's talk only. You are
the same president who threatened to
turn down our constitution because it
provides a jury trial in certain con-
tempt cases. Don't forget, Mr..
President, I flatly dared you to make
that objection. But as the price Of
your approval You did, compel us to
cut out the prohibition Of removal Of
personal injury cases against foreign
corporations from State to federal
courts and several other good provis-
ions that would benefit humanity and
curb special interest. Not content
with your own threats against our

Some time ago the Beatty Rey-

and in the great family journal to
the effect that they carried western
made harness. A man living in La
Junta saw the advertisement and
went to Swink to buy his harness.
He said that he was unable to find
out whether it could be bought in
the county seat or not through any
advertisement. and as that was
what he wanted he drove to Swink
to get it. 1t never pays to adver-
tise. The way to sell goods is to
get them in aestore and wait until
some one falls through the sky
light and strikes on the article he
has been thinking Of buying, and
then the sale is assured.
