The only argument which is
offered against vesting the people

referendum and recall is that the
average voter is not competent to
vote on the question at stake. though
it is difficult to e why they are
capable Of voting for a representa-.

voting directly on questions upon

act.
However. the Dispatch does no
take that view. 1t believes that the
average voter is studying the ques,

learned that the legislatures have
been hoodwinked BY designing poll

1t may seem fatuous kind of optim-
ism which would assume to find any
thing good in the recent horrible re-
vival of lynching in America but there
is at least this of good to be noted in
the situation ensuing upon these out
RACES: Lynch law is not a sectional
problem any more. When the same
sort of thing happens in Pennsylvania
and Oklahoma which was once sup
posed to be known only in Georgia and
Texas, the humiliation and afflction
of it have plainly become national and
are no longer to be attributed to pc
culiar conditions in any one portion
of the country Not only is there thus
eliminated for all time any possibility
of one section casting blame and
shame upon another but perhaps more
important, there now disappears Ill
reason for defensive resentment in any
particular state or section when the
evil is denounced in appropriate terms.
SO Americans now can-indeed must
discuss the matter on common prem
ises, free of all Pharisaism on the part
of either north or south and frankly
acknowledge the mutual involvement
of both in a sitaution as alarming as
it is disgraceful. When the whole
United States has thus come down to
one equal platform of shame, there
certainly will be a joint effort of the
whole country to get up again to such
a level that this sort of thing shall be-
come impossible everywhere. In this
respect, the hope of overcoming the
American lynching habit is more en-
couraging at the present moment than
it has been in any time past.

And the people sat down to eat
and drink and rose up to play" This
striking statement of Paul to the Con-
inthians and quoted from the writings
of Moses is none the less applicable to
the present day conditions on account
of its being uttered so many centuries
ago. The logic of the statement ap-
plies to the high cost of living, high
taxes and the riot of prodigality that
prevails all over the county in this
good year 1911. Where the people as
whole spend so much on eating and
playing the day of retribution is as
sure to come as day is to follow night.
The whole American nation seems to
be running wild in the matter of spend
ing money and in idleness. yet we
complain at the high cost of living.
Abraham Lincoln reasoned that God
loved the common people because he
made so many of them, and it is the
masses of these same common people
who don't care for expenses The
farmer who a generation ago would
drive his team aield at sunrise, and
with the exception of time to feed AT
noon, hold on until sundown all
through the crop season would now
be considered a fit subject for the asy-
um, yet this great nation was build
ed by just such faithful effort. 1t re-
.Quires high taxes to meet public ex-
|penses when every body is living so
fast and working so little When the
occupation of a people is to sit down
to eat and drink, and to rise up to
play, they despise labor and eventual
ly come to grief

Notes." on the editorial page.
| have no objection to the question
by the Chieftain, indeed the question
is warranted by the facts as develop
ed by the replys to the governors
letters. What | do object to is the
Oklahoman's answer 1t is noticeable
that the Oklahoman made no objec-
tions to a special session when the
capitol was to be removed. The six
dollars per day which the members
then drew was presumably alright
from the standpoint of the Oklahoman
When it was considered necessary to
have legislation to remedy the faults
of the initiated bill to remove the cap
itol from Guthrie to city not pre-
pared to receive it, the members were
patriotic public officials, but when leg
islation is necessary to compel Okla
homa City to keep it's free capitol prom
ises, then they become mercenary sal
airy grabbers.
| don't know why democratic news
papers of the state are opposed to a
special session of the Legislature, but
l do know that if they were advised
as to the true conditions surrounding
the capitol matter, and other import
ant legislation, they would favor it.
The reason they are not advised is
because the facts with relation there
to are suppressed, and Systematically
suppressed by every newspaper in Ok
lahoma City with statewide circula-
ton 1t seems to me that they should
begin to notice the patent facts so
obvious to everyone, viz-the capital
has been located at Oklahoma City for
nearly year and still not a spadeful
of dirt has been moved not a brick
laid, nor plat made, nor a step taken
to build a capitol building. What is
the result? The state is paying off
mortgages on eight and ten story
buildings under the guise of rent and
will continue to do so until it has a
suitable building of its own.

the mereenary character of the mem
bership of the present legislature, i'm
