in the state Of Oklahoma who knows
what the laws Of the state OF Okla
hOma are or who can intclligently
advise course Of action in anything
which will be strictly within the law
and which Will not entail the penal
ties and pains Of violation Of the law?
We have had for the past six years
| in Oklahoma the rule Of the machine,
| the rule OF an oligarchy which made
It's own regulations without regard for
! the public welfare and without regard
for anything except the personal ad-
yaucement or aggrandi2ement Of the
people who organized or controlled
that machine? / do not mean to
single Oklahoma out as a mark Of
| opporbium We see the same story
related from Washington. We hear
! the same story from the Pacific coast.
We hear the same story from Penn
sylvania and Ohio.
Somehow or other it appears that
| the whole country is In a state of leg
/ islativc unrest Natural laws which
( have been in force and effect since
| the cave man traded a walrus hide
/ for wife or whale blubber TO light
/ the lamps for "a string Of beads. are
cast aside and We are told that all
/ the evils that flesh is heir to are but
/ the results OF Incompetence, when
can be AT once cured by the wisdom
ana the experience of pseudo states
mon through legislative enactment.
We are confronted today with
situation i'm this state which chal-
. leuFes the attention of every thought
|fI citizen and the serious cOnsidera-
/ tiOn Of every man who puts his state
above his political affiliations. We
are confronted with a situation which
/ ls as unique as 1t was unexpected.
/ We had been told when the danger Of
J Republican supremacy was imminent
/ that the Democratic party could be
trusted TO protect, not only the rights
OF the individual, but the rights Of
/ the corporation and the rights Of the
/ foreign investor We had been told
] that there would not be any sumptu-
/ ary or confiscatory legislation. and
yet We are face to face with Is bills
regulating the oil and gas business
alone, bills which impose restrictions
which are utterly ineffective and ut
/ Itcrly impOtent
We are bidding goodbye TO the old
doctrine OF Home Rule. We have
too much regulation, too much leg
|islation Instead Of more law, we
need less law. We need the applica-

pctuating the rule OF the machine? ?
When we look around us and see the
number Of pensioners, can we not ask
ourselves in all consciousness who
is paying the freight? Somebody is
paying il. In every organized gov
eminent somebody always pays. You
may dig one hole to fill up another
one, but the last hole is where the
ultimate difficulty occurs.
We have so much government in
these United States that today an
srmy Of over fifty thousand people
are employed TO spy on the other
100000 people IN the government
service.
But for the knowledge that some
how or other, through the providence
of God or through good luck or for
tuitous circumstances, called by what
ever name you choose, this govern
ment was not born to perish from

made this republic the greatest world
power which have made It the open
door for all Of the sorrowIng and
suffering children of men.
We need less greed, less dema-
goguery, less of the sand -bagging
methods and more constructive states
manship, more disinterested patriot
sm and less political 'polly-foXing
and palaver.
People familiar with legislation in
Oklahoma know that our taxes are
higher than they are in Kansas, Mis-
souri,, Iowa, Nebraska or Illinois.
People familiar with legislation in
oklahoma know that the population
OF Kansas and the population of
oklahoma are nearly on a Level. Why
should We be punished through the
imposition OF impost duties absolutely
without warrant OF constitutional
law and for the sole purpose Of per-

the earth any student OF history
would tremble for the future. We
have seen attempts to regulate the
conduct Of the individual by boards
ami commissions; we have seen at
tempts to regulate the prices of COM
moditles by boards and commissions
we have seen the attempt to regulate
transportation charges Of every kind,
inland and marine, through the
agency of boards and commissions,
We have seen attempts to restrict the
production of wheat, corn, cotton and
everything else through the agency
Of boards and commissions; we have
seen within the very last few days
legislation proposed almost within the
sound Of my voice which is absolute
ly destructive Of the right of the in
dlyidual TO conduct his own business
in his own way or to have anything
TO say as to how his money Is to be
spent, and the enforcement of this
law is turned over to a commission;
we see an attempt to denature wom-
anhoOd thro Ugh legislation and make
sort or hybrid creature out Of the
mothers and the wives Of the land,
the statutes providing, of course thar
1t shall be enforced by a commission
or board; we have seen the attempt
to secure international peace through
the agency OF commission which has
proved about as useful as a painted
ship upon a painted ocean. Must 1t
not occur to us all that II we are to
make this a government of the peo-
pie, by the people and for the people"
which will not perish from the earth,
that We ought to stop a while and
consult the compass and see how far
we have drifted from the charted
paths Of popular government, how
lar we have strayed, like lost sheep.
from the safe and sane course marked
cut by the fathers. We need I'm this
state less legislation and more farm
Iers; we need fewer wind TANNERS and
more Windmills; we need fewer poll
tcian5 and more railroads; we need
teWer boards and more bOardeTs. we
need fewer tax ferrets and more tax
payers; we need fewer regulative rate
regulations and more sGhoolhouses
we need fewer restrictions and more
prosperity. When the people OF
oklahoma wake up. as they must
wake up one of these days, il the
Hate Is going to be saved from the
gulf Of bankruptcy the element
which has been looting the state
treasury through statutory enactment
since the very first minute Of state
mood, had better hide OUT. The
Democratic machine is on trial i'm
Oklahoma for the third and last time
u God could or would satisfy all
their desires they would be forever
On bended knee and the resources Of
Omnipotence would be exhausted be-
tore half their desires were gratified.
