Open Letter to Judge Crump

Editor World Enclosed please find copy Of
letter addressed to George Crump:
Hon Geo. G. Crump. Holdcnvillc Okla.
My dear Mr.. Crump:
Freedoms battle once begun.
Bequeathed by bleeding sire to son,
Though baffled Oft, IL ever won"
Mondays issue OF the Daily Oklahoman quotes
you as saying in a speech at Durant that the
primary campaign was "Our own family fight;
that we made good fight but lost"
II was not a family fight with US in Semi
mole county II was fight for principle; a
principle our forCfathcrs won after seven years
of awful conflict with the Tory ancestors Of
the autocrat Of the white house. We made a
good fight and we met the blind senator like
the maidens OF Judea met Saul and David. We
vindicatcd him with handsome majority.
Please say to your audience in your next
o%s s%gsed SS[f SR
boshevikcs; we are willing to take a chance on
being run out OF the state. "lVc tell II in Gath
and publish II in the streets of Ascalon. We
are standing and will continue to stand for the
principles M were rocked in the cradle OF
liberty by Washington a Warren, Hancock
and Jefferson. We are still Gore men and
like General Reed who "cussed out" the mem
bcrs OF the Internal Conway Cabal, such as
we are, the King OF England isn't rich enough
to buy US" We have vowed Hannibal vowed
and we are going to turn the polls election
day and with a muttercd curse seek vengeance
as Charlemange and his legions sought 1t at
Roncesvalles.
All honor today, tomorrow and for all time 10

Tyre sends IL reverberating from hill to dell,
Oklahoma will lay at the feet OF her blind scna =
