reforms in the conduct OF genera
elections in Oklahoma are being plan
ned by the new state election board
recently appointed under Governor
! Cruce. Under the provisions of the
general election law passed at the
recent session OF the legislature, Sec
rotary Riley of the board expects tC
be able to conduct state elections in
the future without delay in securing
returns and without the hue and cry
that the elections We're stolen, which
has attended former elections. He eN
presses the belief that when the new
system now being planned by the
board is put into operation, with the
assistance of the new election law, the
stealing of any election in any coun
( ty. or even in single precinct of the
state. will be an impossibility if th2
candidates for office exercise ordinary
diligence and take advantage of the
privileges accorded them under the
/ law.
An election has never been held
since oklahoma became a state Nhicn
was not attended by rumors of whole
sale manipulation OF returns. The cry
of fraud has generally emanated from
| the camp of the losing candidates,
but has been given more or less Gre
dence by men of all parties and fac
tions. AS result, an insistent de-
mand grew up during the last cam
paign for a reform in the election ma
chinery and laws of the state. While
ali was not accomplished toward
amending the election laws that was
desired by the reformers, it is general
IL conceded that the present election
law. as revised by the last legislature,
is a great improvement over all pre-
vious legislation on this subject.
Get Better Men.
Much complaint also has arisen in
the past as to the class of men who
were placed on the election boards in
some of the counties of the state. The
new state election board, according to
Secretary Riley, is using every effort
to secure the appointment of good,
honest men on the local boards and
the opinion is expressed by Mr.. Riley
that the general tone of respectability
among local election officers has been
improved materially.
Members of the board declare that
none of the aspirants for the United
States senate has been favored in the
appointment of members of the coun-
tv election board, so far as the state
election board is concerned. The only
interest that has been looked after is
that of the Cruce administration, the
board having taken the precaution TO
see that staunch friends of the present
administration be placed on the local
boards wherever possible. In some
particular cases the selections have
not been satisfactory to certain men
who are said TO be seeking the sena-
torial toga next year. but such ap-
rointments were not made as part
OF a preconcerted plan to favor or dis
crimnate against any candidate. Sec
retary Riley states that the state cleo
ton board is not being used to fur
ther the candidacy of any man for the
United States senate or for the presi-
dental support of this state, and that
the board proposes to steer clear OF
such entanglements.

According 10 announcements from

wide election will be known with rea'

of this kind at least create such sus-
