IoE,s SPIRIT OF THE PAST

In his street speech at Enid Myonda
night Joe McNeal declared that the
spirits of the past rose before him
like dream Somehow we could not
bur wonder if there stood among those
spirits those who died in the insane
asylum at Norman during the days of
the lessee system organized and MAIN
tanned BY Governor Jenkins and Joe
McNeal We wonder if those who
were famished and starving during
the drouth of the early days while
Joe McNeal grew rich shaving the
seed warrants furnished by the nation
al government appeared among those
spirits he saw in his oratorical vision.
We wonder II those teachers who sold
their discounted paper to Joe McNeal
and bore the burdens of education
through many years could for an hour
relinguish their final resting place
and stand before the man who grew
rich from their poverty. We do not
doubt that there are spirits rising
from an unforgotten past, and daily
standing before the Republican nomi-
nee. Spirits Of those who in the pio-
neer days conquered the prairies, civ
ilized the wilderness, and wrung g
scanty living from The fallow fields
Of the West. while the Guthrie banker
easily drew his forty per cent. GO
to the silent cemeteries throughout
our western counties where repose
the ashes of the dead, and you VIII

who suffered while Joe McNeab hy

per. became the leading capitalist of
Logan county There were, no donbt,
the spirits of the mighty past who
rose from tombs of silence 10 Stand

EFFECTIVE ANSWER TO A HOWL

The Investment OF more than $780,
100000 in oil properties in Oklahoma
by foreign syndicates and the Stand
ard Oil company during the past
three years is the strongest and the
most emphatic answer to the howl
Of the Republican subsidized press
that capital has been driven away by
The policies and the legislation of the
Democratic party. Capital is not
sentimental. men do not invest mil
millions of dollars and then add other
millions to them in fields where they
know that the laws impede the just
return on the outlay. Men do not
come all the way from London and
Amsterdam to be ruled in Oklahoma.
The property and the progress OF
every county in the oil producing sec
ton OF the state and the rapid growth
N population and taxable wealth
since state hood is ample and conyin'
ing evidence that the capitalists know
;hat they are going to get square
deal here and that they have been
getting a square deal since Democracy
redeemed the state from foreign gov
ernment at Washington and The graf
ting Official family in Oklahoma.

MnGulRE,s WEAKNESS


Congressman McGuire's weakness
as a candidate to lead The First dis
ulct Republicans in manifest IN many
ways; chiefly however, his inability
TO keep abreast OF the needs OF the
times; his failure TO listen to the call
OF the people .for progressive acts
such as are always requisite ~ q
country where development is a nee
essity each season, that natural re-
sources may be put to the hest practi-
cal use at the earliest possible nom
ent.
In candidates for the opposite par
~ no Democrat has much concern. In
the case of Mr. Mcclure his record Is
one in whlsh Oklahomans an have
concern He is by seniority the leader
OF the Republican party of Oklahoma
In the national legislative body; his
opinions should be Of weight; his acts
should be OF such as to benefit the
state of oklahoma. In lieu OF states
manship and to get vengeance upon
East Side Republicans who have had
to combat a vicious negro population
In three counties, Mcclure undertook
to get a bill through congress donat
Ing many thousands Of valuable acres
to the negroes, the losers TO be the
Indians. Quite naturally his propos
tion met with no support Of any party
and the Republicans OF the United
States at large promptly put quieus

But II places our congressman II
the light Of a cheap politician, strik
ing weak and ineffective blow al
members of his own political party
because some one OF them did not dt
according to the wishes OF Mr. Nc
CURE. Moreover, Mr.. Mcclure, inter
preting acts of congress, plainly ex
posed the fact he had not been in at
tendance and had no knowledge o
the acts; likewise his interview whicl
displays his lack of knowledge of thu
population Of the state as per the fed
eral census OF 1907, placed him in |
ridiculous position, doing the Firs

leader Of the state; the acts OF tha
party and the many foolish attempt
to gain power by useless and fals'
statements about The dominant party
Indicate the state has not pushed an,
too many members Of that faith will
sound Judgment to the fore. But ih'
weakness of the representative from
this district is sufficient cause tt
create disaffection, in an parties. Th'
most populous district of the stat,
represented in congress by one sci

Political attacks are frequently un-
founded, ana often malicious. Many
OF them deserve no notice or belief,
but the recent Republican attack np.
on Miss Kate Barnard because Of
her canyassing the state IN the I'M
terest Of the Democratic ticket is one
tbatai "a, particularly offensive TO all
peoples sfho lndorse fair play. Miss
Barnard Is the nominee of her party
for reelection. II has long been the
custom, If not always the custom,
for a political nominee to make q can
yass before the people Even az the
present time al the nominees Of all
parties, except the members OF the
supreme bench, are making an active
fight before the people, and urging
their claims for popular support Miss
Barnard Is simply doing what scores
OF other candidates are doing Then
why a partisan press should single
her out and denounce her activity is
a question not easily answered by her
enemies, nor easily understood By her
friends.
A charge against Miss Earnards
administration would be legitimate
charge, ana If founded upon fact
would appeal to the voters Of Okla
homa. But no such charge has even
been made. The Republican party
admits her efficiency, anlJoe McNea
declares In all his speeches that the
department Of correction and chari
ties is The most economically admin
