OVERLAPPING THE PARTISAN GAME

Republicans ont OF power are strong for non-partisansm but
when given the opportunity they show remarkable talent IN play
ing the partisan game. The truth OF this statement IS abundantly
proved hy the course pursued by the lower branch OF the Okla
homa legislature.
For the first time the G. O. I. is in control of the house. The
senate. however, remains in the hands OF the Democrats When
the legislature met, il appears that the leaders OF the Republican
organization in the state laid down one great principle Tor the
guidance OF the house: dscrcdit everything Democratic and every
Democratic ofce-hoder in the state. To carry out this principle
the house appointed an investigating committee, a thing proper
and laudablc enough in itself. but capable OF doing vast harm when
prosttutcd to strictly partisan purposes, as it has been. 1t appears
that the orders given TO the probcrS were TO bring in reports con-
dcmning every state official when there was the slightest grounds
for criticism. railroad the reports through the house, pass them up
10 the senate where due consideration would assuredy result IN
their rejection and thereby lay the foundation for the political
the people viii the dope that the house probers had found ev-
crything rotten in the state government and the Democratic sen
ate had refused to clean up the mess; her the only remedy for
the people to apply would be TO turn the entire state administra-
ton over to the Republicans.
1t was a cleverly concoctcd scheme on the part OF the master
politicians who man the G. @. p. machine and it worked well till
the house probers finally o~verplaycd their game. This unexpected
turn came when the committee brought i'll a report containing
wholesale charges against the State Board OF Public Affairs and
recommending the removal of the members. In this case the
report was promptly met by a challenge from the accused board
TO probe the matter to the bottom and with a report which by
reference TO official records proved the fahsity OF the charges
The smelling committee had gone too lar and when its report
came up for action, the house rejected it, the Republican state ma
chine being unable to hold enough representatives in line to adopt
il. thus generating the board.
The pla-a l the u puhieaal leaders as- the impeachment OF the
governof,. on charges some Of which on ffeif lace redched' the nth
degree of absurdity, blew up in the same manner< s the attack on
the board Of affairs, and thus the scheme OF the q. O.. ]. state
machine is somewhat queered.
A large part of the time set apart for the session OF the.
legislature has been wasted in the attempt OF the q. q. T. leaders
10 use the house investigating committee for the manufacture OF
campaign thunder. Democrats no less than Republicans want Of
fetal c~rookedness ferrcted out but they don't want the taxpayers
money s~quandered for purely partisan purposes.

coFFMANs STATEMENT TO VOTERS

Mr.. Coaman, the Democratic nominee for mayor in a state
ment mailed to voters and also published in this paper, makes
plain his position on the issues which enter into the city election
next Tuesday.
On the park proposition, Mr.. CoTman declares that he accepts
the result OF the referendum held in connection with the primary
as a mandate to the mayor and council and ! he IS elected ne
will move promptly toward carrying out the expressed will OF the
people. He favors the purchase tt the tract OF land cast OF the
Rock Island as approved by the voters, and the expenditure OF
the remainder of the available funds for small parks, Fairgrounds
and boulevard improvements. This is also the expressed policy Of
his Republican opponent, Mr.. Ashton. and therefore this question
does not seem to call for division Of sentiment. Mr.. Coffman
has a record as an energetic executive and it is certain that he
will take effective measures for carrying out the Will OF the
people. So
on the subject Of law enforcement. Flauy contracting the often
repeated charge that he favors an open town is his statement
that he stands for strict enforcement. Mr.. Cofnlan has lived III
Chiokasha Tor more than twenty years and his lite has been an
open book. His personal character and his personal habits are
known to all. Despite the fact that he was removed from office
on the grounds that he permitted the law to be violated, those
who know him we'll do not believe that he ever knowingly or in
tenttnallv deviated from the path of official duty The view Of
those whose confidence in his integrity is mistaken in spite of the
verdict in his case is that he was tie victim OF circumstances and
that he was not responsible for the conditions which caused the
rpheaval in the community three years ago.
Mr.. Coffman was the choice of the majority of the Democra-
tic voters in the primary and as such is entitled to the support of
all participating in the primary. 1T is openly admitted however
that he would be the easiest Democrat to defeat in the general
election. If this be true, it is an excellent reason why Democrats
and Republicans alike should refuse to fall in with the plans of
those who would pervert the law and the purposes of primary
elections. 1t is vital that all election laws be rigidly enforced and
robodv AFFORD. to countenance the violation of their letter or
shirt. The primary is a farce and a means of debauching pohti-
callife if the public is to give its approval when adherents of one
party take a hand in naming the candidates of the opposing party.
When they beat their swords into p~lowshares, the next move
is to beat their competitors into foreign markets--Utica Telegram
