tiers upon which they have the right
TO adjudicate and the right to use a
discretion
"In this class OF cases. the courts
are slow in issuing injunctions, but in
a case where the officers paying out
the money have no discretion what
ever, where the threatened payment Is
absolutely in contraventicn OF the law.
and would be no more authorized by
the language OF the act than the buy
ing OF 36-inch guns for our Territorial
Navy, courts do not tempor!ze In the

Blocking Contemplated Action.
As TO the argument Of the defense
that the bringing OF the cases was
premature, and that threats alone will
not justify the granting of an iniunc-
ton, the judge recalled that the actual
payment OF the money would have re-
quired only a short time after the par
ties began TO act.
He declared that the making out
and fling Of a claim was a very dis
tinct step in the wrongful act, as was
also the consideration OF such claims
BY officers, the declaration by officers
that they would allow and pay the
claims.
Not Commended Az Local.
1T Is not SERIOUSLY commended By
the defendants" Judge Stuart con-
tinued. that such contemplated action
Is legal. As regards the acts OF the
governor, the attorney general refused
to justify them IN any fespeet, or to
argue the demurrer.

War Saved Country, Says
Tulsa Writer, Formerly
New York Editor.
ARTICLE APPEARED
IN RECENT OUTLOOK
Economic Conditions Now
at Most Unhealthy State
of History.

NNE Of the ablest, most lucid and
" forceful discussions OF national
politics that has appeared during thu
present campaign Is from the pen of
a citizen Of Tulsa, H. n. Gardner, who
has recently located in this city. prior
to coming TO oklahoma Mr.. Gardner
was prominent New York state
editor. His article. which has at
tracted nation wide attention, appear
ed i'll the current issue of The out
look and was in reply to an article in
that publication ~ Theodore Price in
defense of President Wilson and his
administration Being practical
newspaper man, Mr.. Gardner wastes
no ords in discussing the situation,
and for sledge- hammer strength,
terseness and brevity as well as for
Its soundness and logic it is one of
the best things that has appeared dur
ing the campaign.
He literally punctures the bogus
prosperity argument in support of
President Wilson and his administra-
ton by pointing out the results Of his
policies enacted into law before re-
lief came from the unexpected but
temporary source, the European war
BY permission Of The outlook, The
World is privileged to reproduce the
Gardner article III full 1t is as fol-
lows:
President Wilson and his Demo-
critic associates could ask for no bet
ter advocate than Theodore II. Price,
whose extremely able article in The
outlook of August 23 was an argu-
ment in favor OF the continuation of
the present administration-from an
Industrial and financial standpoint
alone--which could not be surpassed
Mr.. Price presented statistics and
n carefully selected array of facts
which. to the ordinary mind not given
to analysis. seemed to make out an
incontrovertible case to prove the
power of the Democratic administra-
ton to advance prosperity.
Like the able debaters of all
parties, Mr.. Price, in carefully select
ing the facts which he wished to pre-
sent. as carefully refrained from men
tioning even more important facts
and statistics which would have
proved the fallacy of his entire argu-
ment. He presented statistics from
the department of commerce and la
Dor in which he compared the indus
trial condition of the country in 1916
to that of 1912, and these seemed to
show that the country had waxed ex-
tremely fat industrially under the
Democratic administration. He care
fully refrained. however, from pre-
senting statistics for the years 1913,
1914 and 1915, which would have
shown the terrible industrial lean
ness suffered by the United States for
