the Democratic ticket. In a recent
speech he said:
You will hear that there is much

That report was put out by the Repub-

is some dissatisfaction at Tulsa be-
cause Gov. Lee Cruce stopped race
track gambling with the state militia.

didate for governor, is salf-made
man who made himself on the ground
OF economy and that economy is 50 in

rest assured that the state govern
ment in his hands will improve, If that
be possible. He Is the man who
helped to frame the constitution of
Oklahoma, which we think is the
greatest IN the union. There are
others who think the same thing, for
New Mexico patterned her constitu

when Ohio amended her constitution
she sent for copy of ours that she
might copy some of its wonderful pro-

While Democrats are plentiful
enough in this part OF the state, VIC
should remember that the Republicans
are active in northern Oklahoma and
that the old stand-pat machine will do
everything in its power to discredit the
national administration in the coming
election. Recognizing this condition,
We should see that every Democrat in
the county goes to the polls on No
yember to the end that we may roll
up big majority for the ticket. When

Is not as great labor panic under the
Wilson Democratic administration as
there was during the administration
of Republican Roosevelt. Here is a
bit of history as recorded by the
Johnstown Democrat:
More than 1000 men march to the
city hall at Detroit and demand work
January 2S, 1908. Here is another
item. The Chicago Federation of La
Dor estimates the total number of idle
men in the city at 100000 and warns
all craftsmen to keep away from the
city, February IL, 1908. 1t also tells
that 100000 march through the city of
New York singing the Marsellaise, the
speakers preaching revolution and de-
manding work; how a bomb is thrown
at the police by an anarchist March
2S, 1908. The labor unions in Kening-
ton district, Philadelphia, say that
there are $4,000 idle men reported by
the union leaders, February 10, 1908.
A few days later there was a riot in
Philadelphia. A band of 1000 present
themselves to the city authorities and
demand work. There is a riot, three
policemen shot, IA are arrested and
hundreds of the women beaten by the
mounted cops, February 20, 1908. The
roll is not yet called. Another item
estimates one million and half in
