Speaking Chairrnanly.

Ever since that memorable gray morning
when Zach Chandler, wearing his bcst poker
face, announced. Hayes and Wheeler have lS5
electoral votes and are elected" Il has been
recognized that the first duty Of national
chairman is 10, claim everything lie who hest
tatcs is lost.
Since that day few chairmen have erred on
the side of moderation, They all have gone on
the theory that the election might be close
as that OF 1875 and as the ultimate victory on
that occasion went to the highrt clamer they
have not proposed to be caught claiming the
smaller end. But in the race OF zeal that ended
Yesterday It looked a little as though Chairman
white had been outclatmcd by Chairman Hays
II is uncertain how II happened, unless Il IL
that Chairman Hays spoke first. Ordinarily It
is an advantage to speak last. for then the
claImer knows how strong he has to 80, But It
was not so In this ease, for Chairman Hays
claimed all the votes there were. Chairman
White couldn't very wolf top that.
Without ccnsurnE Chairman white Il must

OKLAHOMA FINDS HERSELF.

Oklahoma has found herself. she is south
ern state, fact that all can take the utmost
prido In but she Is not a member OF the Solid
South, "a fact that all can take the utmost pride
in, too.
oklahoma declares herself for the republican
presidential ticket clectn the republican soma
torial candidate and shouts n scornful ana de-
risive mo" to the league OF nations hercsy. In
her sovereign deoison let bourbon democracy
read it's doom, For at last there has come an
end TO the political jobbery that has character
zcd the public service in tho state since the
first hour OF statehood.
Henceforth men may differ and be respected
Henceforth, the major party, be It republican
or democrat, will hesitate long before offering
Incompetence and much longer before looang
the siandcr squad on those whose only offense
is that they insist on being their own men and
on exercising their prerogatives under the con-
Hutution
The beneficial effect on oklahoma OF its polit-
ic0l decision cannot be ovores,imatcd. The fact
that she has demonstrated an independent spirit
Of rufft lent strength TO take her out OF the
prejudiccd and politically cnslaved south will
attract to her both population and investment,
and in addition to that the views Of her statcs-
men, editors and pubncis,s will command much
attention and great respect
In short Oklahoma has become an important
factor in the conduc, OF the United states gov
ernmcnt and solution OF public questions. No
party nor coterie OF politicians will hcnceforth
ignore this state or It's representatives. In this
respect tho victory OF Tuesday means great
deal to the democrats For In future campaigns
the democrats OF oklahoma, II they have the
courage and the pride can command more CON
alteration at the hands ~ their party than an
OF the states together which make up the solid
South.
In discussing this most tremendous event The
World frankly confesses It's embarrassment to
find suitable words with which to express It's od-
miration for and appreciation Of the thousands
OF democrats who made It possible. One OF the
delightful features OF the campaign against the
league OF nations has been the comradeshp It
has established between hitherto strong repuo~
Iicans and hitherto incorporating democrats.
