DOWN TO FACTS

Democrats are assured tnat Presi-
dent raft is not in accord with their
Ideas OF government. They are Ger
tain those fighting the administers
.tion are also opposed to our ideas OF
how the affairs Of state should be
conducted.
That means the difference between
"a standpat and an insurgent Repub-
lican, brought to its last analysis,
means that il is simply a question of
what kind of a Republican will carry
into effect the wrong kind of gov
ernment from Democratic stand
point.
What Democrats in power must
look to is to enforce existing laws
and seek to lead onward or upward
to higher place. never weakening to
The point of allowing any faction OF
the opposition to mislead.
In that we have the authority and
example of the great leader, Champ
Clark, who, when the battle between
Republicans was hardest, steered his
hosts in one direction, standing
steadfast for the principles of our
party and caring naught what trans
pired between the warning factions ol
the opposition.
Clark is we'll versed in govern
mental affairs and his policies repre-
senis the Democracy from a National
standpoint Democracy means De
mocfacy. Ii does not mean that q
lot of side-issue Republicans get in
to the game and Disseminate pol
icies in no way concerned TO aid ou'
cause

JUST THE TRUTH

Many oklahoma voters who reside
away from the cities now forced TO
aspire for the permanent capital be-
cause of the Oklahoma City inilia-
tory bill find it hard to comprehend
the proposed change is but matter
of some twenty miles-feel that no
intelligent corporation or unincor-
porated syndicate would attempt 10
lead the people of this state into am
expense OF not less, when all &C
counts are footed up, Of s4,000,00O, TO
accomplish the proposed change
which means to haul the seat of gov
ernment across. the border Of one
county into the. one Immediately ad-
jacent.
But the fact remains that no Two
cities of great Importance In Oklaho-
ma are closer together from a geo
graphical standpoint than Oklahoma
City and Guthrie, save Sapulpa and
Tulsa, and, as no conflict of any kind
exists betwixt the two last named,
they are not listed as rivals.
To move the seat of government
frcm Guthrie to Oklahoma City
means, to the average voter, nothing
more than to haul it very few miles
over the prairies and locate 1t where
there are very few Oklahomans who
could iell any difference, save that
II had been moved from the high
hills upon which this city has been
builded TO the lowlands of the North

PRIEST, ATTACKED
BY WOMAN, HAS
HER ARRESTED
Police Fear Renewal of Turbu=
lent Scenes in St. ROccO's
Church Parish.

Mrs. Dora Bozza, 80 years, of Is
Bedford street, was arraigned before
Acting Judge Yuill in the Fourth Pre-
cinct Court, charged with assault and
battery on the Rev. Vineenzo Sansone,
pastor of ST. Rocco's Church, in Bed
ford street, and now the police of the
Fourth Precinct fear a renewal of the
stormy scenes which kept them busy
in that turbulent parish for more than
two years.
Father Sansone made the complaint
against the woman. He told the court
that yesterday afternoon he went into
Michael Gerard's grocery at 13 Bedford
street, and that while he was con-
versing with the proprietor Mrs Bozza
entered. She said something to him,
he says, and when he replied that he
was not talking to her and didn't wish
to she swore at him and picked up
a scales from the counter and hurled
them at him.
Then, the priest declares. the wom-
ans 23-year-old son. Frank, came into
the store and began 10 pummel him.
The court had just issued a warrant
for the woman's arrest when she
tlllel6u luS courtroom ana HShSu iCA
a warrant for the priest, which the
court refused. Judge Yuill sent for the
store-keeper and his story eorroborated
that told by the priest. The woman
was paroled for a hearing tomorrow
morning.
ST. Rocco's parish has been tranquil
of late. Prior to the advent of Father
Sansone it was in a continuous upro9r
and the police We're called frequently.
At that time the Rev. James Zuccarell
was the pastor, and when lie was
transferred it was thought that the
trouble was over. rather Sansome
came from Silver Lake where he had
a reputation as n peaceful and holy
man and Just the man to bring to-
gether the warning factions.

SENATOR BRIGGS
To RUN CAMPAIGN
FOR VIVIAN LEWIS

Former Governor Franklin Murphy,
who successfully managed the cam

publican governor elected in thirty
years, as well as that of Foster M.
Voorhees,, who succeeded Governor
Griggs. and Governor Franklin w.
Fort. who is frequently referred to as
the "last Republican governor will

Vivian NJ. Lewis.
The former governor is willing TO re-
main on the committee and probably
will be one of the big Four as the
members-at-large of the State commit
tee, named By the chairman of the

didate Lewis early last week that While
ready to assist in every way he did not
feel that he should be called upon TO
personally direct another State cam
paign after having borne the burden
as many years as he has since 1880

chosen to succeed Ex-Governor FRANK
lin Murphy as chairman of the Repub-
lican State Committee. The selection
of a State chairman Is accorded by
party practise to the gubernatoriai
nominee, and Mr.. Lewis is believed to
favor the selection of Senator Briggs
Senator Briggs Has Been Chairman.
Senator Briggs was chairman of the
committee which conducted the cam
paign of Ex-Governor Stokes, who was
elected by the largest plurality ever
given a gubernatorial candidate in this
State. Among the prominent state
leaders Senator Briggs is also entitled
to be described as one of the original
Lewis men, He has favored the can
didacy of Mr.. Lewis from the start and
has been loyal to his cause throughout
Not only in the matter of selecting
nominee, but in the adoption of the
platform. Senator Briggs used his infiu-
ence to accomplish the insertion of the
progressive planks advocated by Mr.
Lewis. Governor Murphy is a CAM
paign manager of recognized ability,
but his views have not been quite in
harmony of these of Mr.. Lewis
This fact was emphasized by his Sc
lection of a subcommittee on platform
composed oe three pronounced reaction
aries, which gave no representation
whatever to the progressive element of
the party.
