'OklahOma Wants New Election Law

Guthrie. Ok, Nov. 19.-One
thing which Democrats and Rep.
ublicans are demanding from
the coming legislature is the
repeal or radical revision of the
new election law passed last
winter. E. d. Cameron, state
superintendent of public in.
struction, is one Of the strongest
opponents of the new law as it
now stands, and especially crit
icises the provision requiring the
voter 20 declare his politics be-
fore he registers, which be char.
.acterizes as an outrage upon the
freedom of the ballot.
Mr.. Cameron insists that one
of the greatest mistakes which
has been made in Oklahoma was
in trying to play politics on mat
ters of this sort. The Guthrie
Leader, the official mouthpiece
OF the Democratic state admins.
tration, also comes out editorial
ly demanding "a decent election

All this talk about an independ

is merely hot air-somebody talking
through their hat-and should not
be given decent thought by any
BODY. The Democrats and Repub-

strong candidate and should be given
a good clear field. As we have said
before, this year the fight is strictly
between the two leading parties, and
independents will likely get slim
pickings.
