~The grandfather amendment will be

that negroes are being shipped TO this
country in droves we have no hesi-
fancy In gayin gthat we believe it is
the duty Of alt white and Indian citi-
zens regardless Of their politics who
have Oklahoma's interest at heart, to
vote for the grandfather clause and
disfranchise the ignorant negro vote,
who are fast becoming the dictators Of
the republican party Of this state. The
question that confronts the people Of
Oklahoma Is whether or not shall the
white and red man dominate and man
age this state and its affairs, or shall
we lay down in the midst Of the max

the same make possible the rejuvenation
of our lands and the redirection of coun-
try life. II will not cost as much to do
this as to move to the town or city, and
by remaining on the land the integrity
of the country home will be preserved,
and the destruction consequent upon
turning the vast areas of country over to
the ignorant and indifferent negro pre-
vented. The establishment of these
schools means to prevent the passing of
the land into the hands of few large
owners, and the development of con-
ditfon tantamount to that now existing
In Britain, which would be intolerable
to the liberty-loving American citizen.
The people I'm the rural communities are
not as poor as they think they are, nor
are they incapable of providing the
needed money for school development.
Education makes rich; ignorance impov-

tablish the right kind OF rural school will
find it the best money-making PROPOSE
