other than the friend of the common
people. William HI. Murray, speaker
of the lower house OF the legislature,
and presidegit of the constitutional'co con-
yentien, was also the lessees' friend.
State Senator ]. Elmer Thomas of
Lawton was another and there were
dozens of others in officialdom.
The governor and his fellow officers
called a meeting of the lessees and un-
der provision OF the Initiative and ref
erendum law, that has been recently
enacted. q law providing for the sale
of the lands was Initiated. Mr.. Murray
was the author. of the initiative and
referendum measure and here he found
his first opportunity to place It in ac-
tive operation, The law requires 23,O00
names to be placed on a apetition In or
der than an initiated measure may by
the secretary of state be placed before
the people as a proposition for election,
Mr. Murray set himself about the task
of securing the. signatures OF the re-
quired enumber of petitioners; he spent
a coed part OF the summer at II, and
was successful. rRe sal-
The initiated measure provides for
the sale of all state school lands. All
r
bills considered by the legislature pro-
vided for the sale only of indemnity
and. college lands, For the reason that
even many of the lessees themselves do
not want $S0,o0O,eoo worth OF lands
placed upon the market at once and
thus destroy at once and for all the
last vestige of landed heritage OF the
school children, this and future gener-
ations, many lessees are opposed to the
initiated measure.
The most active campaign against
the adoption of the measure has been
waged by the, Oklahoma School Land
Preservation league. OF which State
Senator Roy r. Stafford, editor OF the
Daily OkIahoman, is president, and
Prof. l.. J. t!bbott, a member OF the
faculty of the Central state normal. is
