WILLIAMS A
CANDIDATE
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE, CITI.
ZEN OF BRYAN COUNTY, WILL
Run FOR GOVERNOR

(Note The Saturday Morning Ad-
vertisep- (the Saturday edition Of the
Durant Weekly News) was the
first newspaper in oklahoma to
print the story definitely stating
that Judge r. l.. Williams would en-
ter the Governors race. Many stories
that he was expected to enter the race,
and many editorials urging him, have
been printed, but the following, which
appeared in last Saturdays issue is the
first authentic story from "HeadquaT-
ters" that Judge Williams has entered
the race.)
Oklahoma City, Okla, Sept. 13.--
Especial to The Advertiser) Judge r.
L. Williams, of the Oklahoma Supreme
Court, today announced his candidacy
for the Democratic nomination for
Governor at the August primary 10
1914, and stated that probably not un-
til after January 1st, would he make
his formal announcement, setting forth
the platform on which he will make
the race.
Economy. efficiency, honesty aRd
equal apportionment of the burdens
of taxation must characterize the ad-
ministration of the executive depart
ment of the State Government, and
that is what l stand for, as well as a
reduction of the burdens upon the tax
payers" said Judge Williams in stat
ing that he would be candidate.
Judge Williams has announced his
intention of resigning as associate jus.
tice of the Supreme Court when he be.
gins an active campaign in the inter
est of his candidacy. His present term
on the Supreme Bench expires in Jan
iuary, 1915, and under no circumstanc-
es will he be candidate for re-elec-
ton to the Supreme Bench, he said
Judge Williams is one of the most
widely known men in public life in
Oklahoma. He was the first Chic
Justice of oklahoma'si Supreme Court
after admission into the Union, ant
has served continually on the bencl
since then. He was a member of the
Constitutional Convention and is th'
author of the two cent railroad rate
provision, which was written in th
Oklahoma Constitution at a time wher
two cent railroad fare was in effect in
only one State in the Union, thai
being Ohio,

creating the Corporation Commission
and granting It the powers It now ex-
ercises He is the author of the fell
low servant provision and the provis-
ion requiring the submission OF all
disputes between capital and labor to
board OF arbitration.
on account OF his intimate knowl-
edge of the Constitution Judge Will
liams has written nearly every impor-
tant opinion handed down by the Su-
preme Court, which involved constitu-
tlonal questions. not the last of which
is the one establishing the constitu-
tionality of oklahoma's famous So
called grandfather clause"
Judge Williams was born, reared
and educated in Alabama. He came to
Oklahoma in 1896 1nd located at Du-
rant. He was active in politics in ter
rltorial days and prominently identi-
fled with the movement that brought
about statehood. He was Democratic
national committeeman from the Iu-
dian Territory at time when place
on the national committee was prac-
tically the only representation the
eastern part OF the state had in the
political government of the country.
He has been a successful business
man and that marks him at this criti-
cal time in the States history as pc
culiarly fitted to guide the affairs Of
State.
