soldier of the war. One fell in the
trench; the strength of the other was
broken in the enormous labor of his
office. But others were ignored-the
men and women who labored at home

hands that moved the = lathe by day
and the needle by night? What of the
organizations, superbly effective, that
conserved food and fed the world
that carried nourishment to the front

that nursed the wounded back to
i1ife---that buried the dead in the dark
shelter, of the ynight-that. inspired
business men and artisans of all par.
ties to work in harnony? What of
the millions of men, women and child
rem Of all creeds, religious and other
wise, who stood in the ranks as firm
as soldiers overseas, undivided by
things they once quarreled about?
What of the government itseH-con-
firning the faith Of our fathers as
sufficient to meet the storms of
time? Why the -sneer at labor with
the yelled charge that it was a mere
Stacker? The spectacle is sufficient
to convince any unprecedented MN
that the republican leaders who have
taken charge of their party and nomi-
mated it's candidate, are no more
possessed of the spirit of the hour
than they were in 1912 when they pre-
cipitated a revolution within the rank

further proof were needed the action
of the present Congress supplies it.
Not constructive law can be cited.

4 PICTURESQUE CHARACTER.

Not only does william H. Murray refuse to be
a candidate Tor any office but he makes It clear
that oklahoma Is to lose her most picturesque
political character Murray Is indeed going to
! olivia. to establish an American co,ony along
political lines that he has long cherished IIo
has acquired title to Yea tract OF land In that
country, ana he Is now engaged in making con
tracts with Americans to people It. lie, OF
course will he the feudal lord but his form
OF government and tho laws he will insist on
enforcing are all written In tho bond
There Is no question but the continent south
of offers opportunities to American courage
nnd industry, It is light matter for a man
to uproot himself after he has passed tho
meridian and start all over again IN a new land.
Put that success can be mado to attend upon
such an adventure IL beyond doubt II Is re-
ported that many Oklahomans are going with
Murray, ana that the success OF his undertaking
Is already assured. THAT rhay be. We wish him
and his associates well.
But we confess regret that the other OF the
two original oklahoma designers should feel
called upon to abandon us to our fate For
Charles Haskell and William Murray were the
artisans that carved out the state we now
boast OF Theirs was tho craftsmanship that
wrought in politics and statecraft during the
first years OF statehood. what one did not think
Of the other did And what one OF them could
not do the two together found easy.
Haskell left us years ago Now Murray is
gong. And wo shall not be surprised to hear
moro OF him. For william Murray. after all
"a said, remains the nearest approach to a
constructive original statesman oklahoma has
produced. We suspect that it was not the op-
portunity Ia add 20 his material welfare that
drove him into the wilds OF South America, SO
much as ne desire TO try In a practical way
certain political theories which have long on
gagged his attention.
