DENIED A HEARING.

II anything was needed to remind
the people Of Oklahoma Of the deter
mination of the Democracy to run
things its own way without regard to
the sentiments and rights Of the
voters. II has been supplied by the
row over the submission Of the liter
acy test qualification to the verdict
OF the peope. The law provides that
in case Of referendum the voters
shall tie supplied with the arguments
for and against the measure proposed.
The Socialists have submitted vitri-
olic brief against the measure. but the
administration forces are seeking to
have it omitted from the the litera-
ture being printed for distribution.
The claim is that the legislature made
no provision for the Socialists to be
heard on the subject, which, whether
true or not, would have the effect OF
nullifying the spirit Of the law which
proposed to give all sides a hearing
before the voters Of the state. But
Justice In this case has a champion
in the person Of the secretary OF
the state, Mr.. Lyon, who says that the
Socialist argument must be included
in the literature or he will refuse to
accept or pay for the printing of any
Of It: and as the secretary has the
privilege of accepting or rejecting the
claim OF tho printers, it is reasonable
to suppose that his will will prevail.
Nevertheless the board of affairs Is
dead set to prevent the printing of the
Socialist argument. and an interesting
struggle Is on between the admins
tration and the secretary. AS pure
question Of justice. all the voters
should have the opportunity to study
the arguments for and against any
measure they are asked to vote upon.
and II follows equally that each side
CT the contention should have fair
chance to present its arguments. The
state administration is only laying up
for itself additional scores to be set
tied with the people in trying to
smother a free and full discussion,
and the fact that they are anxious TO
do so can only be taken to mean
that they fear to have the light
turned on to their schemes.

GETTING ON THE NERVES.

The action or the president in call
Ing out eight thousand additional
troops for police duty in Mexico has
stirred up a feeling of tension that is
not confined to the border states. and
the public nervousness is by no means
less on account of the fact that the
national guard of three states Is in
cluded In the call. While the law
makers up at Washington have been
in doubt about the ability of the ma
tional government to command the
services of state troops. the president
has gone ahead and put the matter
to the test. The citizen soldiers Of
Texas, Arizona and New Mexico will

AN OBSCURE HINT.

There are those who claim to read
between the lines of the German note
a hint that it is time for the United
States to take steps looking toward
mediation between tine warning pow
ers. The impression is heightened by
the visit OF a papal delegate to the
president to urge upon him the ad-
visibility OF sounding the European
governments as to their readiness to
talk peace. There may be some such
meaning hidden in the language OF
the German note but IL 1t Is. 1t Is a
very obscure hint. 1t seems to us
that what the note does say on that
head Is not a plea for help to secure
peace, or an acknowledgement that
Germany Is tired and ready to quit;
but it is rather a justification Of the
German. position. What the note did
say in substance on this subject was
that Germany was not to blame for
the continuation Of the war, because
she had made repeated Efforts to in
duce her enemies to discuss the terms
upon which they would be willing to
cease fighting. These proposals could
not, OF course, be given in concrete
form, for national dignity would for
bid that the Teuton should appear to
be crying "hold. enough. Yet in a
roundabout way the German govern
ment has let the bars down for a
consideration Of peace terms. The
kaiser cannot afford to take the in
itiative in proposing peace without
risking the loss OF his throne. The
German people demand that they
come out OF this war without humilia-
tion. Unless they can do so. they will
continue to fight-and we can't blame
them. But the allies. as long as the
advantage Of conquest is all with
Germany, will not think Of peace ex-
cept on terms that contemplate the
humiliation of Germany as the chief
condition. Germany undoubtedly
wants peace. but as long as her en-
emies sec hope ahead there will be
no peace until somebody gets licked,
Germany was the first to grasp the
sword, and now she can't let go with
cut the sacrifice of honor. But Ger
many is a long ways from being
whipped. and she is not begging some
one to help her turn loose.

Representative of Electrical

At well attended meeting of the
Tulsa Trades and Labor Council on
Thursday night. one Of the most i'm
portant matters taken up was the
difficult one which had resulted from
the recent disagreement between the
management of the Public Service
company and several of the union
electricians of the city, who walked
out earlier in the week. ffs

, mite understanding, the electricians Of
Tulsa communicated with the head Of

sentative Of the electrical workers.
came to this city and last night ad-
dressed the organization. He said in
part:
I'VE have been negotiating for five
days and half with the Public Ser
vice company to effect an agreement
"a verbal agreement only, whereby
the scale OF wages would equal that
paid by like companies doing business
in Tulsa. SO far we have failed. We
are not asking recognition Of the
union, and we are not trying to regu-
late working conditions Other COM
panies are paying their Iinemen. trim
mers and metermen 81 per day; the
Public Service company pays only
w for the same class OF work and has
paid this for the past ten years. in
spite OF the fact that the cost Of liv-
ing and electricity has advanced over
so per cent.
This occupation is hazardous and
this council, no doubt, remembers
three of our men have been electro
cuted in the past ten years.
Less skilled labor in less hazardous
work In Tulsa is being paid $2.75,
$3.50 and 1926 per day and these
skilled electricians are only receiving
50 per day from the Public Service
company; other companies paying 81,
and that Is what we are asking for
and we think we are justly entitled to
the same money that the others are
getting. This Is the entire matter and
any other statements are misleading"
Following the address 1t was an
nounced that the council will hold a
joint meeting with the Womens Union
Label league on Thursday night. At
this time II program will be presented
ii also was announced that great plans
were being made for the state fedora

County or precinct registrars under

out of the contingent funds Of tho
counties for the fiscal year 1917, Is
held in an opinion from the attorney
generals office to Governor Williams.
In the inquiry sent by the governor
II was suggested that the contingent
funds of the counties for 1916 were
practically exhausted and that the law
says these expenses must be met by
the different counties from the con-
tingent fund. Ii Is pointed out by
the attorneygenerars office that reg
istration, with the supplemental Pc
riods. extends over into the 1917 fiscal
year and that the registration Is not
finally done and completed until
shortly before the fall election Hence
it makes little difference il the reg
istrar files his claim at the end of
the service. If he waits until that
time, he may include his whole serv.
ice and then the county contingent
