Does the new state Of Oklahoma

fenced, especially in the west. over
the failure Of congress TO revise the
tariff downward II so, what do the
voters OF the first congressional dis

best interests of the country" that

be possible for any OF that old gang Of
republican politicians, who 50 bitterly
opposed the constitution, to make the
people believe that they would protect
it? We might just as well ask the
cat to protect the canary. Then again
would It not be a ridiculous proposi
tion to ask those republicans who
have revised our laws to enforce
them? The most extravagant claims
made by the republican politicians do
not include possibility OF electing
the legislature and therefore We will
have the same obnoxious laws and
these fellows who ridicule them ask
to be allowed to enforce them.
