"A Few Sidelights on ]. J. ]. u.
Republican Politics

The old gang republican pie hunters
are bowling at the present admins
tration. Every act of the governor,
and every act of every officit1 is at
tackled. Nothing is done except for
selfish purposes and to boost political
ambitions-to hear these sanctimon-
ious jabberworks tell it.
Taxes-Oh, the terrible taxes Peo-
pie we're never SO taxed before! Lis
ten to the anvil chorus
Notwithstanding taxes were higher
under the gang republican rule of ter
'ritorial days than now. Territorial
taxes were 3 to mills. States taxes
21s mills.
Why are taxes high, you ask?
Because the people have been build
ing school houses, roads and bridges,
court houses and jails.
Because cities and towns have been
making improyements-bui high
schools and ward schools; waterworks,
and fire departments; grading, level
ing, and paving streets.
Go into republican counties and get
the tax levies. You will find that they
have been doing these same things
and taxes are as high or higher than
in democratic counties.
Why?
Because you gentle reader, have not
only permitted it, but you >have said
it is the thing to do. You have said
I'VE must have more schools, and bet
ter ones; we must have more roads
and better ones" You have said, I'VE
must have more bridges and better
ones" You have said IF we want
people to locate In our town and spend
their money with US, we must i'm
prove. We must have waterworks
and fire protection; We must have bet
ter streets" You have We'd with other
towns and other sections of the state.
Honest, now, isn't this true?
This spirit Of progress that has been
made Oklahoma the wonder of the ma
tion-the spirit that you possess, dear
reader, is the cause of high taxes-not
the democratic administration.
Think it over-give the matter a
little thought-and then reflect on
what the republican gang has done
and what it wants.
Yes the old republican gang wants
in again. But what do they promise?
They were against putting the two
cent fare in the constitution.
They were against regulating the
railroads.
They fought the bank guaranty law
that provides that you shall get your
money out Of failed bank without
loss.
They fought the income tax; the
gross production tax; the alien land
owner law they were against the la
Dor laws. and have always given aid
to the forces opposed to organized la
Dor; they have taken the side Of the
corporation in every dispute that has
come up between the present admins
tration and corporations in an attempt
to make these corporations bear their
Just proportion Of the burdens of gov
ernment.
They were against the Jim Crow
law. and are opposed to every attempt
made to keep the thousands of cotton
picking negroes from bordering states,

house she used to go TO in her dreams
well. some time passed. and the

the lady complained that one part of

The lecture by Alex Richardson at
the opera hall, under the auspices of
the A S of E, on Saturday afternoon
proved very good drawing card and
Mr. Richardson did not in the least dis
appoint his hearers, who pretty we'll
filled the hall. Lewis Benson, presi-
dent of the A S of E, and Geo Halvor-
son, secretary, presided, and Mr. Ben
son introduced the speaker with some

roads of the mail order business into

merchants, showing farm land would
decrease in value in proportion as the
towns business decreased.
The whole community was shocked
last Thursday noon by the announce
ment of the death of Guy Black. He
had been to Gown in the morning and
returned to his Lake Ripley home, ap-
parently in his usual health. After
putting up his horses and speaking a
word to his wife about the sharp morn
ing, he fell suddenly, his life light
snuffed out in an instant. On Dec Is,
1864, as a youth of II he enlisted in Co
E, 44th Wis Inf, but on account of sick
ness he was not able to serve his full
time and was accordingly brought home,
receiving an honorable discharge. After
his return from the army he took up
farm work which he entered upon with
ardor and pursued it with untiring zeal
until he finished his labors. He was
married to Miss Mary R Vaughn of FIT
Atkinson, March rs, 1879, and contin-
ued his residence upon the old home
stead near Red Cedar Lake, which he
purchased, until about the year 1888
when he and his wife, who was COM
panion in all his labors, sold this and
bought the land and their beautiful
home on Lake Ripley. This they i'm
proved until it is one of the most val
liable farms in Oakland today.
