A number of the papers of the state
are running the democratic state tic
ket with several names of nominees
omitted. We notice that several pa
pers in the state are not running in
the list of nominees the names of Jack
Love for corporation commissioner
John B. Turner for justice of the su-
preme court and Henry NJ. Furman
for judge of the criminal court Of ap-
peals. These names should be in
cluded A mistaken idea that pre-
walls in certain sections of the state
is that Judge Turner and Jack Love
are to be elected by districts only. This
false impression should be corrected
The two candidates mentioned were
nominated by the voters of judicial dis
tricts, but are to be elected by the vot
ers of the entire state. Every demo.
crat in every precinct in oklahoma
should vote for Judge Turner and Fur
man, and every democratic newspaper
in the entire state should carry their
names as democratic nominees.

The socialist state organization is
reported to be hard up for cash and
unless plans to raise more money can
be formulated both state headquar-

notwithstanding the fact that the
Lackawanna Bridge Company has adj
vertised in New Orleans and Mobile
for skilled and common labor, the
the labor problem, it is stated, is a
serious one, the lack Of available
workmen making the progress Of work
slower than desired. The servant
problem, incidentally, is also serious
one, especially with people residing

summer. An influx of labor and good
