ROBERT L. OWEN

/ The cry OF Harmony and re-
itrenchment9 going up from the lead
,ers Of the republican party throughout
the state and their criticism oi the
democratic administration for extrava-
gance, is out Of harmony with the
record Of the republican party when
in power in this state and is also Oh.
of harmony with the record of the re-
publican members Of the last legis-
llature.
When Oklahoma became a state
more than a thousand cases were
handed down from the federal courts
on the east side of the state to be
disposed Of By the supreme court Of
the new state. After two years OF
hard work it was found that it would
be impossible for our supreme court
to take care Of the regular business in
herited from the federal court and the
last legislature created a court COM
mission to assist the supreme court in
disposing Of the accumulated bust
ness.
The creation Of this commission is
one of the things for which the demo
cratic legislature is now being criti-
cized by republican politicians. The
Inconsistency of their criticism is dis
closed by a reference to the record of
the last legislature which shows that
this measure was supported by the
republican members as well as by
democrats.
On pages 7SS and 7S9 Of Senate
Journal 1911, will be found the record
Of the vote on house bill No. Is, which
is the bill creating this commission
and this record shows that when this
bill was put upon final passage that it
received the support of republican Sen
Iators Berkley. Briggs, Brownlee (the
latter now one of the republican nom
.inees for congress at large. Chapman.
.Colville, Jones (who was candidate
for the republican nomination for
United States senator in the recent
primary Langston. and Mccullough.
All these republican members of the
senate voted for the creation of this
commission and not single republi-
can voted against it.
Ali of these senator's, with the ex-
ception of one, voted for senate bill
No. IS which created the Office of state
fire marshal This is shown on page
279 Senate Journal of 1911, and only
three republican senators recorded
their votes against the creation of the
office Of state highway commissioner
as is shown on pages 762 and 763
Senate Journal 1911.
Thus 1t is seen that the democrats
in the last legislature were ably as
sisted in the creation of offices by
their republican colleagues. A num-
ber OF democrats in both branches of
the legislature opposed the creation Of
these Offices while large majority of
the republican members went on re-
cord for the creation Of the very Offices
which the republican party would now
condemn the democratic party for
bringing into existence. Practically
every law enacted since statehood re-
sulting in the expenditure Of money
has been supported by the republican
mmbers of the legislature
How shall we Judge the republican
party? BY the promises they make in
their campaign literature or by the
record Of the officials? Shall we Judge
them by what they promise to do in
the future or by the record of what
they have done in the past? by their
fruits ye shall know them
