Oklahoma City. June 3.-Editor The
Leader The Daily 0klahoman, and
a few other papers in the state, ham,
pcred by the same mire of prejudice,
are working overtime, to discredit
Bill Murray, by misleading the peoAO
with ti1sed, 'dOctoeed reports OF his
speeches. There seems to be an un-
holy alliance OF a few INSCRIPTIONS
reporters and subsidized newspapers
whose chief work Is to print brief ex.
tracts and sentences from Murray's
speeches IN such q manner as will
conceal and distort his laudable pub
lie utte ances. The Daily Oklahoman
appears to be the chief promoter and
most vicious parent of this kind OF
dope. 1t is q subject of general dis
cussien andtEegret that the narrow
bias OF the OklahOmau and its total
abandon of all the ethics of fairness
ana honor in criticisms, makes il a
constant reflection on the hroad In.
telligencc of Oklahoma. citizenship in
general The Dem0c attic party and
the people in general, continually feel
chagrined because of the persistent
vicious Practise OF doing out shame
fully unfair reports, and untruthful
statements about persons and sub
iects, on mere grounds or disfavor.
Public criticism is cOmmendable, but
continuous aggressive lying is despic.
able Note some examples: Murray
removed his vest and replaced his
coat before going on the platform TO
speak at Oklahoma City recently.
The Oklahoman In bold headlines en-.
dea fered to. and did, convey the i'm.
precision that Murray thus dsrobed
before the audience. A small matter
hut a lie with vicious intent. At Guth-
rie. Murray, c iticizing politics in the
public school. referred to a teacher
who had made the Grandfather
Amendment Il prominent subject in
his teaching. The Oklahoman report
ed him as attacking il as a rank parti
san proposition" thus doing Murray
base nmstlce Again II reported
mo applause when he criticized the
4 Federal judiciary for the recent on
lahoma decisions and stated that
what he would do If he were govern
or. another base falsehood These
are only three Of their daily assaults
on p oprlety.
The PEOPLE viii learn the truth in
spite OF the Oklahoman. and when
they know the methods that are being
used 10 defeat Murray they viii Else
in righteous indignation and sting his

Options ARE INVALID

All options presented to the COVER
nor concerning the permanent loca-
tion OF the permanent state capital
building or buildings are yalueless to
the taxpayers OF the state. No mat
ter how much good purpose was be
hind the gubernatorial call nor how
earnest the people responding, it is
as true as gospel that, if the present
proposed capital removal bill be-
comes Law, voted into being by rea-
son OF its provisions, state capitol
commission, that commission is
bound by no option, no clause of OPP
! tion, no demand or request of the
governor who Is to appoint the mem
bers >.hereof; no legislative enact
ment, oIfsy. the reputation of the
original vote D5 the people who in the
first place created this extraordinary
body clothed with sIGh plenary pow
er as was never before grated to any
official organization within tfe his,
tory of the Aryan ascendency being
effective against the said capital com
mission.
Getting down to brass tacks, the
people OF this state hold the unequ-
vocal authority to vote in the com
mission
They have not authority TO locate
the capital prior TO after 1913. Blu,
the commission can be created
Once created, II can spend money
"like drunken sailor and the spend.
ing is legal, although whatever they
spend for the location OF the cap.
itol buildings can be stopped in q
minute.
DO the people want any commission
which can spend q million dollars
at will. al! lor nothing
And for no purpose worth while2
That is the query the taxpayers
and other voters of the state must
answer June IL.
That is why the sturdy citizens
who understand the intent of the
Ledworser monstrosity have valiantly
fought every proposal Of the propos-
ed enactment, also because they
know the intent and the attempt 10
deceive the whole people of this state
That accounts for the glorious his.
torical accounts OF the achieve
ments OF the state metropolis by those
defending the lot scheme and total
disregard for discussion on the mer
its OF the bill itself.
That is Why if you please, when
banks fail and townlot paper gets
worthless. that certain townlot bach
ers try to make slander Of Guthrie
answer q demand for elucidation o'
the various clauses Of the bill
let the taxpayers Of the state
stand as an unit against the tax
eaters.
Let us say mo so emphatically
there win be no doubt as to what
the people Of this state think re
garding propositions that are wrons

There is but one solution to the
best interest Of the whole people o

The Republicans Of the Twelfth dis trict are considering the nornination of former Alderman George w. King for AJdermsn at the approaching primar- ies, but there is a strong sentiment Throughout the district against King s renominetion because of his relations with the 20 year water contract.
 Alderman George IT. zink, Jr., whose term expires. is said not to desire a consolidation.
 Although there was a. Republican caucus in the Ninth district attended by a handful of party workers who decided that Alderman William E.. Primrose shall again be the candidate, the friends of William R. Muirhead are of the opinion that the approach ing primaries will be the best place bo decide who should be the candidate. They are now considering giving Primrose a fight.
 George Feyrer is to have the Repub- licap AIdermanic nomination in the Tenth district to succeed himself with out opposition. Eugene L. Meyer will have the Eleventh district nomination to succeed himself.
