Defends Oklahoma Election and
His Administration.
Governor Williams has commented
on the alleged statements and insin-
uations by Republicans and Social
lists of Oklahoma with reference to
conduct OF elections i'm this State. lie
said the statements are calculated to
make people believe that the Demo
cratic party has been crooked in the
conduct of elections.
II was elected governor on the
promise that my administration
would be a6business administration.
said the Governor. "and thatN only
capable men we're to be placed in Of

this promise has been kept. If we
were faithful in this, is It not likely
that we would be faithful in the mat
ter OF elections?
Here in Oklahoma we are trying
to work out the initiative and refer
endum. 1t is new thing i'm govern
ment. The experience of the recent
election on proposed amendments 90
the Constitution shows that limita-
tions which have been imposed by
some States on the number of amend
ments which may be submitted at
one time is a wise limitation. In Ar
kansas not more than three amend
ments may be submitted at one cleo
ton other States have other rules,
but in most of them there is a limit.
Oklahoma ought to have a limit, so
that voters would be able to digest
all questions submitted to them. and
cast intelligent ballots"
Governor Williams reviewed ef-
forts that he had made to have pub
licity pamphlets provided by law sent
by mail to all registered voters of
the State. and told of the difficulties.
owing to oversight by the lawmakers
in not making provision to pay for
the work of copying the lists for the
purpose. He suggested that this law
be remedied and that some other
changes be made that will help to
get all the facts before voters in such
cases in the future.

. fusion of the Republicans and So

for some, if not all, of the Democrat
ic nominees for county office.
In past years the Democratic pri-
mary has been the whole show. Until
this year other parties didn't have a
county ticket in the field. that is, not
a full ticket; and If there was one,
no interest was taken in its success.
The result was that the general cleo
ton was a formality and very light
vote was polled, many people even
overlooking election day entirely
This year the Republican and So
cialist parties have complete party
tickets in the field. Several nomi-
nees of each party have commenced
systematic campaigns over the coun-
ty in an attempt TO capture the big
end of the vote; and both parties, we
are reliably informed, are planning
large advertising campaign in be
/ half of the entire party ticket
: If the full Democratic vote is poll
ed at the general election there is
little danger. it is believed, of anv
nominees being defeated; but the
danger lies in the disinterestedness
of the Democrats in the election. If
the party organization in the county
has not already taken steps to pro-
mote the party's interest. it should
be done shortly.

ma City vice chairman, and f. X.

The committee organized with the
greatest possible outward show of
harmony. Monday night. however,
there was considerable caucusing
among some of the members known
TO be insurgent as to the present ad-
ministration of the State.
The committee voted to hold big
State rally in Oklahoma City during
the State Fair, at which men of ma
tiOnal prominence will be invited to
be present; resolutions en-
dorsed the Wilson administration,
Congress, the State administration,
and the State Legislature. The So
cialist fair election bill' was de-
nounced in the resolutions and by
speakers. The bill has been initiated
to be voted on at the election in No
vember A campaign committee of fiji
teen members is to be selected and a
finance committee chosen by the ex
ecutive committee. 1t was urged
that beginning with 1918 members
of the State Committee be chosen fol
four-year terms. Alex Stewart OF
Hollis was chairman of the resolu'
ticns committee.
Two secret sessions were held tC
consider financing the campaign. The
report of the treasurer was approved
in these meetings.
Addresses wer made by the nOmi
nees for State offices and by Govern
or Williams, j. b. A. Robertson, S
p. Freezing. Attorney General, and
II. Johnston, second high man in the
race for tho nomination for Ccrpor
