the election threatens the Republican
party in Oklahoma can no longer be
concealed. The G.. 0. p. as in SC
many other states OF the union, Is
doomed and Joe McNeal win go down
TO defeat as a martyr TO negro su
premacy and corporation fealty.
Flynn on Warpsth.
dennis r. Flynn. formerly Republic
an political boss in Oklahoma, arch
enemy OF Congressman Bird Mcclure
state Chairman Jim Harris and Other
standpat party leaders in the state
has openly declared war on the Re-
publican machine in recent public ad'
dresses at Enid and Waukomis, u.s.
ing the campaign as an opportunity
to vent his personal spleen against
the Republican state organization.
Flynn has been urging the people TO
elect his old political "side-kick', Joe
McNeal, as governor. but has also
been taking a bunch OF nasty tails
out OF State Chairman Harris, who
20 far. has been sitting tight and re-
fusing to be drawn into any factional
battle royal on the eve OF the cleo
tIon.
Frantx . Bitter Pill.
When Frantz was nominated to the
Republican to make the. race against
Governor Haskell, at the request Of
Frantz himself Flynn was again in
vited to Washington to confer with
the president, who sought Flynn's sur
port for Frantz In the gubernatorial
race. and the Oklahoma dailies IN
flaming red headlines proclaimed tC
the proletariat that Flynn and his
good friend, Piiny l.. Soper, that cheer
full political ex-patriot, had been inyit
Cd to Washington TO entwine theii
feet beneath the same table where
Booker T. Washington, the noted ne
no educator, had deposited his toot
sies, and that the hatchet was to be
buried.
flynn, however, never forgot the
indirnity that had been offered hin
at the white house, ever since whicl
time he has been fighting the Repub
lican state machine tooth and toe
nail. Along with Republican Nation
Al Committeeman Cash Cade, Con
Rressman Morgan and others, Flyni
lead the fight for Judge Frank Gil
jette. an insurgent. who opposed jim
Harris for election as Republicai
state chairman.

Roosevelt. was clicked to a frazle,
and Hlrris was put firmly in the sad
die. where he will remain for foul
years In spite Of the political wolves
that have been camping on his tran.
Cash cade has not contributed on,
k penny towards the Republican cam
paign In Oklahoma this year an'
neither have any of his postmaster
friends. whom cade helped boost In
to office with the help Of "Gardei
Seed" Dick Morgan. Cade has visit
1 ed Republican headquarters at Guth
= rie just once since the opening OF th'
campaign. When he does go to th'
state capital, he attends the trial 0
his pals. whom the Mexican govern
emnt Is seeking to- extfadfte to ans
wer to indictments charging then
with graft in connection with the &C
a cumulation of certain hickapoo In
dian lands. and for whom he is one o
the official bondsmen.
cade has done absolutely nothing
looking toward the election OF Nc
Neal and the balance OF the Republic
an state ticket, but spends his tim
instead, In cussing out Jim Harri
and the state organization.
