I shall be guided by tn;s experience
and appoint to its membership busi-
ness men OF the very highest caliber
who will see to II that your moneys
are honestly expended and that the
inmates Of our charitable. eleemosy-
nary and penal institutions are given
the care to which they are entitled
at as economical cust ns good care
and efficient will permit.

partment operated the people must

for every dollar spent Any and all

Taxatlon.
About % per cent of our tax laws
have been rewritten since state
hood. As a/consequence they have
become somewhat complicated. /
believe that at the proper time, aft
or study and preparation. the legis-
lature should. give attention to a
borough revision of our ad va'orem
system OF taxation, and that after
Lhn most comprehensive investiga-
tlon and study should. devise n sys-
TEN simpler in It's enforcement. In
doing this thought should be given
to the simplifying OF issuing tax re-
celpts. to the making certain of the
status OF all taxpayers and the pre-
vention OF unjust practices and the
compounding OF penalties and costs
to the taxpayer. The provisions of
the assessment laws should az that
time be revised and an equitable
bafis OF oil assessments made i'm
perative. However. / believe, based
upon my experience as state auditor
and member of the state board OF
equalization. that sufficient machin.
cry is-already provided for the
proper assessment and equalization
OF property for taxation purposes.
1der whatever assess ment law that
may now be in force or afterwards

posed to the creation. as has been
suggested already In this campaign

OF the executive officers OF the state
are now elected for that purpose.
In my opinion their work can be
made Just as effective a. could the
work OF another board elected or
appointed. The governor IN a mem
ber OF and chairman of the state

work is his sworn duty as we'll as

vote much time during the entire
year TO this work. and am confident
that the state board OF equalization
can be 30 organized that without
expense to the people. with the ex-
ceGion OF possibly one or two com
petent employees, that this work can
and will be properly handled. and
that as far "a equalization of prop
erty IL concerned tax burdens dis

A Warning.
In concluding my appeal to the
democrats OF Oklahoma feel II my
duty to sound to them as a demo-
rat warning. In recent years In
great many states there have
grown up political oliRarchies and
tiid'tihto nhNt DtNOHit Il
menace TO government In those
states Even In the national govern
ment II became necessary to pas
the Corrupt Practice" act. In our
own state the trainers of our early
laws attempted to prevent II by the
limiting OF expenditures in primary
and general elections. Oklahoma
being a new state, has perhaps not
been cursed with this system TO the
extent that other states of the ma
ton have. but as we grow Older
this condition Is beginning to appear
on the horizon OF Oklahoma and be-
fore we suffer from II as other
states have II should be stamped
out Wherever IL has appeared IL
has become the worst cancer upon

campaigns OF a few to gather them
