TELLS WHY
ELECTION
SET MAY 7
j. A. Temple Makes Statement
AS to Reasons for Naming
Courthouse Bond Voting
Date.

J. A. Temple chairman of the
board Of county commissioners made
the following statement this morn
ing relative to the naming Of May
Z as date on which Grady people
are to vote on the court house
bonds:
1.-TWO reasons were strongly. sug-
gested and urged as to why the
election for the court house bonds
should be held ON the 7th of May.
In the first place it was undesira-
BILE to hold this election on the
same day on which the road bonds
were to be voted on, for the reason
that it was believed that the senti-
ment realtiye to the road bond is
sue would be much stronger and ac-
tive than that relative to the issu-
ance of the court house bonds, and
that therefore many voters would
cast their ballot relative to the road
bonds and fail to vote on the court
house proposition, and likewise that
many voters would be influenced to
vote against the court house bonds
by reason of their opposition to the
read bonds, and that we would there
by have failed to have secured the
real sentiment of the electors Of the
county relative to the issuance of
the court house bonds.
1.-THE second proposition was that
at the time the petitions were pre-
sented to the Board Of County Com
missioners requesting the calling OF
an election for the issuance of the
court house bonds, it was stated in
the public press that the election
on the road bond issue would be
prevented by injunction proceedings
and that in all reasonable proba-
bility the election on the road bond
issue would not be held on the 9th
day of May. 1t was believed how
ever. that even though the road
bond issue should be tied up by in
junction that the necessary arrange
ments would proceed for the holding
of such election until the time OF
the election. and that therefore the
period used for the registration of
voters and the registrars to regis
ter the voters by reason of arrange
ments for the road bond issue could
be utilized in connection with the
court house election
ut was also suggested that the
same election officers and officials
when they made arrangements for
the supplies to hold the court house
election, thereby saving expense to
the county, the time of the election
officials and in all things secure a
more accurate expression of the vot-
ers of the county relative to the
court house and bond issue.

Oklahoma City, May 5.-Governor
Robertson Today made his final ap-
peal to voters of Oklahoma to sup
port the $5OOOo,0OO bond issue.
The chief argument Of the opposi-
tion-that Oklahoma has not trust
worthy men able to handle the build
inb projects "the counsel of cow
ardice," the Governor declared, "a
SANDER on our people" whose ar
duous record Of things done con
dennis this petty plea as the whine
OF weaklings."
The statement follows:
BY j. b. A. Robertson,
Governor of Oklahoma
In this last word TO the people Of
Oklahoma | sould like to answer
briefly the objections raised by the
opponents of the road bond plan.
Many of these objections, as the
people are aware, have already been
retracted
They could not stand up against
the facts. Conspicuous among those
was the charge that the constitu-
tional tax limit of 31A mills would be
abolished That complaint has been
silenced.
Similarly the statement is no
longer heard that the bill specifies
the material with which the roads
must be constructed The specifica-
tions in the measure are explicit
enough to guarantee that the roads
will be permanent good roads, but
their construction is an engineering
problem, and the chief engineer of
national reputation, whom the COM
missioners will employ, will natural
ly pass upon all technical questions
of this character.
Indeed, the only plan now left to
our non-progressiye opposition is the
ability to manage and carry through
this enterprise. That is a counsel of
cowardice. 1t is a libel on our
history 1t is slander on our peo-
pie 1t cannot be dignified with
denial. The facts of Oklahoma s
accomplishments, our arduous record
of things done, from which there is
no appeal, condemn this petty plea
as the whine of weaklings.
But there is one condition, or rath-
er suspicion, which | wish to consid-
er. Our opponents. retreating from
one untenable position to another,
have taken their last stand on the
allegation that the road map which
accompanies the bill, and on which
are shown the roads we are going
to build, is a political map drawn
