All WILL BE RIeHTEp


AS The Leader had maintained,
there was no excitement in the cap
itai city. There was never the least
doubt that our people would accept
the mandate Of right; never question
tut they would demand Justice That

capital. is not denied to do SO would

present election are unknown, can.

ance: there must remain a feeling
that Guthrie was not given the same
consideration it had a right TO ex-
Ieet; all Of which counts not in the
shaping Of destiny Charges and
counter charges do not add TO our re-
lief; neither do they add to other
tian imaginary burdens Our cause
is right right Will prevail
Oklahoma City is not the capital OF
our state-withoui due process of law
it can never be made capital city
We may be oyel-anXious. our people
may be wrought with a fury because
they feel that injustice has beea done.
Put that does not and can not set
lie problems of a public nature
In all probability the bill making
the location of the capital now was
defeated certain it is that it can
never win with state officials doing
business elsewhere than Guthrie; for
this is the capital and will remain
such until such time as the state Of
ficers return from their vacations and
take up the work the people elected
tnem to DO and for which compe1sa-
ton is paid them.
Meanwhile, our people will con
tinue the even tenor Of what they be-
