Tulsa, Okla, Feb. 10-The results
of tomorrow's precinct caucuses in

Brady-Galbreath race for endorsement
as national committeeman from Okla
homa on the democratic side. These
caucuses will be held in every county
precinct. AS many voters as can con
gregate will meet and select their dele
gates to the democratic county con-
yention, which will be held here on
Saturday, February II. This conven-
tion will elect delegates to the state
convention at Oklahoma City, Febru-
ary 22, and will also do the more inn
portant thing Of endorsing one or the
other of the Tulsa county candidates
for national committeeman. Both the
Galbreath and the Brady forces have
prepared strong line of action in the
Saturday caucuses, and each side
claims that they will control the ma
jority of the delegates to the county
convention. When the results are
known Saturday night either Brady or
Galbreath can glance at the list and
pick their "men." In the meantime

Gods inspired word a knowledge of
God and his laws.
1t should be remembered that with
or without the Bible there have ever
been two independent witnesses for
God-Nature-or the works of God in
creation Ps XIX, 1-3; Rom. 1. 1920.
and conscience Rom. Ill. 14,15. In those
early days man appears to have been
in his relation to God, under conscience
But nature merely teaches us the fact
that there is a creator-God; while
conscience may be so abused as to
render it practically imperative. Hence
the necessity for such revelation as
lis contained in the Bible, which "liveth
and abideth forever" | Pet. 1923. and
which not only tells us that there is
creator, but reveals to us who that
creator is. This brings us to the
birth of the bible.

BEGINNING at the BEGINNING.
RATCLIFF.

Editor Vinita Chieftain: If this dis
cussion is to go into print we will be
gin at the beginning.
The first inspired writings so far as
we have any record began with Moses
OF the inspired writings contained in
the Bible we have clear and definite
records that Moses wrote all the words
Of the Lord, Exod, XXXIV 4; that David
wrote the Psalms, Sam. XIII. /, Q:
that Luke wrote his Gospel, Luke l, IA,
and that John wrote the Revelations,
Rev. /, IL. Although there were holy
men in those early days, such as Noah,
Abraham and Joseph, with whom the
Almighty had frequent verbal eommun-
ication, yet we do not read that any
one of them was ever inspired to put
Gods words into writing. From the
days of Moses onwards the inspired
writings Of the Bible, as we have them,
were constantly referred to by
prophets, priests and rulers as the
final court of appeals, Exod. XXXII,
8, Joshua 1.S Our Lord also frequent
lily referred to the Old Testament
scriptures in the familiar words 1T
is written" And the most natural
inference is that, had there been any
sacred writings in those days, some
reference would have been given by
such men as Noah and Abraham, or
some of the later prophets, or even by
our Lord himself
There is no known proof of any such
writings prior to Moses. Uninspired
writings existed before Moses day
and are still in existence.
The Book of Job, was probably writ
ten about the time of Moses, and pos
sibly by Moses-though many scholars
are not sure, indicates that there were
writings prior to Moses day, that con-
yeyed knowledge of God and his
equity, as portrayed by the history of
his three friends who attempted to
instruct him during his Affections, evi-
IDENTIFY these we're days when God was
pleased to verbally direct individuals.
Adam, Abram, Abimeleck, Isaac, Jacob
an dthe three friends of Job. In this
way also it appears that God first in
structed man concerning many of the
laws which were afterwards embodied
in tne Pentatench. such as the Sabbath
Gen. l1.s. Thus we see from earliest
