child's and his record is as an open
book.
On the contrary Murray well
knows the staste of liquor. All his
actions during the First state legis.
lature are not public property and
some Of the most notable Of them
are kept secret by his closest friends.
III a speech the other day he de
clared he had never violated the
prohibition law Of Oklahoma, yet he
is known to have drank liquor His
statements regarding his extreme
sobriety have been connected with
others recently in supporting mat
ters OF policy. For Instance. he said
he dii not order the Confederate
flag taken down at Altus-old sold
iers declare such an order came TO
them, and the flag was taken down.
He said that a member of the Cruce
family ran for office on an inde-
pendent ticket in Ardmore during
the last city campaign-in the next
breath he had 70 retract. He said
he was the father OF the initiative
and referendum in Oklahoma-the
records show that he fought that
measure when a Farmers union me
morialized the constitutional conven-
tion TO put it in the constitution.
When he took the oath as a member
OF the First Legislature he said he
wouG take no other money than
that allowed by law-the records
show that he accepted two dollars
a day extra for serving as speaker.
He says he fayors the grandfather
clause amendment-the records show
that he blocked such a proposition
during the First legislature.
During the last ten days efforts
have been made TO prevent the Anti
Saloon league from entering this
campaign, for since there is no dl-
rect issue involving many democrats
have thought it unnecessary to make
it an issue. Mr. Cruce has said it
was not an issue and that he be-
lieved that it should be kept on Of
politics.

I'm not taking a great deal of in.

have been over the state. know
that Cruce is gaining fast. and do
not consider that the endorsement
of Conger and his Oklahoma Citv
bunch will hurt Cruce." said Mr.
Zevely.
Everyone knows Cruces attitude
on the liquor question. They know
that he is total abstainer and
strongly believes in prohibition. and
Tor this reason | cannot see that
anyone would vote for Murray in
preference to Cruce on the uouor
question"
