In the Returns of the Re-
cent Elections.
PRESIDENTS IDEAS REJECTED
Candidates UNFOLDING Same
Have Been Retired to
Private Life.
SAMPLES OF UNPoPULARITY

IBy Clyde H. Tavenner, Special
Washington Cor. of The Herald
Washington, Sept. 24.-President
Taft has made it plain that he hopes
and expects to secure a denomination
for the Presidency.
This means that he does not even
yet see the point conveyed in the re-
turns of the recent elections. II is
evident to many that the President
sees no significance in the fact that
from Maine to California the candi-
dates branded with his Endorsement
have been retired to private life by
overwhelming majorities, while those
having his opposition have every
where been elevated by the people.
In view of the decisive reputation
of the Taft administration in the re-
cent elections, it becomes interesting
to know the identity of the men
whose advice the President has fol-
lowed to his political downfall. Here
are some of the men in the Taft cab
met whose pedigrees make 1t plain
why Mr.. Taft's administration has
failed to please the common people;
Attorney General George c. Wick
ersham-former attorney for the
sugar trust; cit was he who induc-
ed President Taft to recommend in
his annual message against a Con-
gressional investigation of the $2,-
100000 sugar trust underweight
frauds;) Immediately upon taking
Office Wickersham dropped suits
which had been started against the
beef trust, taking the position that
he did not believe members of the
trust meant" to violate the law and
that nothing could be gained through
prosecutions for past" offenses;
Wickersham wrote legal opinion vim
dicating Ballinger and indicting
Pinchot and CLAWS.
Secretary of State Philander c.
Knox-former attorney for the steel
trust; hand of ]. P. Morgan is seen
by many in his conduct of the State
department; the Manchurian propos-
al, for Wall streets benefit, made
America the subject of laughter in
every civilized land, and, with the
Crane scandal, practically ended our
influence for the doctrines of the
open door"
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
does whatever his superior officers

mand In order to hold his position;

ure food laws by permitting manu-
facturers of food products to use BEN

tom
Charles Nagcl. Secretary of Com
merce and Labor-Former attorney
for the eWaters-Pierce (Standard)
Oil Company; he is at the head of
the department in which is located
the bureau of corporations.
Secretary of the Treasury Mac
veagh-His record is immaterial, as
Aldrich is the real head of currency
and finance of our country.
Ballinger-Exposed and discredit-
ed, but still in office.

In Eleventh Democrats
Select a Strong Man.
IS NOW A STATE SENATOR
Party Enthusiasm Stirred to
High Pitch BY Speeches
of Leaders.
TO COMBINE AGAINST POWERS

Somerset, Ky, Sept. 2S.-The
Democratic district convention which
closed at a late hour last night after
nominating State Senator Eliza Ber-
tram, of Clinton county, to make the
race against Caleb Powers, surpass-
ed any convention ever before held
in the Eleventh Congressional dis
trict both in point of attendance and
enthusiasm, and was rife throughout
with belief that the district will be
saved the odium of being represented
in Congress by Caleb Powers, who
was thrice convicted and twice par
doned of completely in the assassina-
ton of Gov. William Goebel.
The convention was certainly an
eye-opener to the prominent Demo-
Gratis from out in the State who were
in attendance. The large court
house was crowded to overlooking,
and people stood about the doorways
and in the windows and aisles, watch
ing and waiting eagerly every move
made by the convention throughout
both the afternoon and night ses-
sions. Never / nthe history of the
Eleventh district have there been so
many prominent Democrats at a
meeting of any kind, and 1t seemed
that Louisville was out in full force
with some of her most prominent
Democratic orators, as were several
other towns in the State.
For the first time since the days of
Col. Frank Wolford, the Democrats
of this district have a hope of win
ming. They really believe they can
win, and they have a right to be-
lieve this, as hundreds of Republic
ans are stating openly that they will
support the Democratic nominee and
do all in their power to defeat Caleb
Powers. They will make a fight
here such as has never been made
before, and their organization will
be perfect.
1t seems to be the slogan with in
dependent Republicans and Demo-
Gratis here to keep Powers out of
Congress, and 1t begins to look very
much like they are going to do it.
The Democrats, by getting out fun
vote and half OF Edwards vote, can
defeat Powers. 1t is not believed
that Powers can poll near the votes
in November that he polled in the
primary.
The name OF Gen. p. Wat Hardin,
of Williamsburg, was placed in NOM
ination, but was withdrawn and the
nomination of Senator Bertram was
made unanimous amid wild yells,
throwing of hats, clapping of hands
and other like demonstrations.
The Democrats selected their NOM
inee with great care. Senator Ber-
tram is conceded to be the strongest
man in the whole district, and not
one jot nor little can be found
against his record anywhere. His
ability as a runner was demonstrate
ed last fall, when he was given the
nomination for the State Senate in
a district composed of five Republic
an counties with a total Republican
majority of 5000, and he defeated
his opponent.

UNFIT FOR THE PLACE.

On July the Oklahoma City Times

square deal in all state and other Of
fees. with one exception. and that is
when the welfare Of the school chill
dren OF the state are involved.
"In this connection the Times feels
that the very best material IN the state
should be brought out for superinten
dent Of state schools, and we want q
be most emphatic in saying that J. P
Evans. Of Tahiequah. Is an unfit man

In appealing for the election of re
publlcans to the legislature they tell
us that no United States senator is to
be elected and therefore no party ques
ton Of Importance will come up. a
foxy plea is this but let NO democrat be
deceived. The next legislature VIII re
district the state for legislative and
congressional purposes. The republi
cans are just as adept in the art Of ger
rymandering as they were when they
laid off the original districts in Okla
homa and they will do the same thing
ii they can capture the next Legislature
The districts laid off at the next ses
sion win remain unchanged for ten
years and it can therefore be readily
seen why the republicans are making
such desperate effort to capture the
legislature No democrat should assist
them IA their efforts

simultaneously with the announce
ment that the federal court declines to
take cognizance Of the grandfather
case comes an article from the republi
can press bureau which attempts to
show that the republicans are respon
sfble for separate schools In Oklahoma,

take it to imply that they have given
up their fight for the black man, see

cRucE CAN BE TRUSTED.

When Lee cruce tells the people
that he viii 60 into Office absolutely
untrammeled BY promises, expressed
Or implied, to any one, he means ex-
actly what he says.
The entire career OF Cruce, public
and private, furnishes assurance that
he is a man who can be trusted. No
one has ever charged that he IS not a
man whose word is good. 10 assume
thar he is not sincere when he de-
clares Ne has made no promises. is to
assume that Mr.. Cruce is reversing his
entire character as II Is known to
those who have been intimately asso-
ciated with linn FOR years.
The only issue that the republicans
have attempted to make against cruce
is that he is a mere puppet Of Haskell
and his election means the perpetua-
ton OF 4Haskellism.v
That the election Of Cruee means
the perpetuation of democratic policies
Of government in state affairs, no
body win question but the charge or
insinuation tnat the Ardmore man has
no will Of his own or that he will be
subseryient to any individual or any
influence is utterly groundless. Cruce
has never been that kind of man and
there is no danger that he will change
at this period In his career. He be
longs to family of stalwart, coura-
geous men and as governor of olIlaho-
ma no one win be 4sble to manipulate
him.
Hire is what Mr.. cruce said in his
Fairfax speech:
eOne matter I want to set at rest
for all time to come. When I am
elected governor Of Oklahoma, ! want
It thoroughly understood that Lee
Cruce will be governor. No men nor
set of men shall be permitted to die
tate to me what | shall do, or what !
must refrain from doing ! had rather
be the doorkeeper in the executive
mansion than to be clothed with the
title OF governor and have to submit
myself to the control of any living
man. No man has ever occupied an
important official position who will be
more unhampered in the discharge OF
his official duties than win be.
have procured my nomination and will
win my final election without having
made single promise to any man
further than the promise faithfully te
serve the people OF Oklahoma. Many
men have come to me since my nomi
nation, applying for appointive posi-
tions. have given this answer to all:
Under no circumstances will ! con
sider the applications for appointment
until after my election.
Does anybody honestly doubt thai
Lee Cruce meant every word Of that
We think not. The voters OF Oklaho
ma demand no further assurance from
a man Of such sterling worth. II

accusations Of his enemies they trus

The socialist candidates are going
about making their usual howls about
"damnable capitalistlc system" Even
n every socialist on the state ticket
should be elected, thing that cannot
possibly happen, that sytsem would
still be with us and st would then be
MP to the socialists to do something
practical in the way OF conducting the
business Of a great state. Idle talk
about economic abuses does nothing
for the relief Of the oppressed. What
the Oklahoma voter wants is an adj
minlsrration that win run the state as
economically as is consistent with ef-
ficiency and good government, and
that Is what the democrats propose to
do. The socialists are saying little
about real business conditions in Ok.
lahoma and are advocating nothing
practical either from legislative or ad-
ministrative standpoints. How are we
going to deal with present conditions
Is the question intelligent men are
asking. and the socialist reply is fgt
