FALLEN POLITICAL IDOL

At the November election in 1922
j. c.. Walton was the outstanding
political figure in the state of Okla
homa as he had Just been elected by
| the people of his state by majority
in excess of $4,000 which, by the
| way, was a regular endorsement
when the number of voters in Okla
homa are taken into consideration.
Today Walton has been repudiated
oy the people of his state and inn
peached by the legislature.
Upon assuming the executive po-
sition Walton began to run things
In high handed manner, over-step-
ping the powers which his position
gave him, regardless of the rights OF
wishes of his constituency.
Walton is a radical of the radicals
and his elevation to the high of
flee of governor of Oklahoma was
made possible by fusion of all the
the state of Oklahoma the governor
has full spardoning power and within
a short time after he assumed Of
flee the prison doors began to open
to allow notorious law breakers and
felons to march forth with complete
pardon to again prey upon society.
Many of the crimes committed in
the state Walton charged to the Klu
Klux Khan. The Herald hasn't any
sympathy with the Khan or any 9TH
er organization wearing a mask to en-
force its ideas of 100 per cent
Americanism;" neither has this pa
per any sympathy with any organiza-
ton one of the principal objects of
which appears to be to set one nations
atty against another, or one religious
sect against another. Undoubtedly
the law has been violated by the
Khan In Oklahoma as in other states,
but it is stretching ones imagination
to considerable extent to charge
the K. K. KS with being the crime
ring of the commonwealth
The Klu Klux WELD considerable
influence in Oklahoma and from this
distance one must conclude that that
organization threw its strength in
the balance against Walton.
Things came to climax a few
months ago when the legislature at
tempted to meet at a special session
to consider impeachment proceedings
against the governor. As command
er in chief of the National Guard of
Oklahoma the governor threw a.
strong military guard about the
state capitol and prevented the Leg
stature from gathering; many towns
were placed under martial law and
a censorship was placed on the lead
ing newspapers of the state.
At special election following, the
people repudiated the acts of their
governor by vote of about to 1 |
and when the legislature convened, |
~ impeachment charges were fled |
He was given a fair trial by the |
Oklahoma senate, was found guilty |
IN II of the indictments and was
mpeached by tie unanimous vote of |
hat body.
Walton was a former resident of
being theatrical bill
poster in ST. Paul, drifting to Okla
IONA few years ago, where he
considerable wealth in the
Ill game.
His administration has been an ex-
,ensive experience for the people of |
lis state and the Herald predicts that
here will be many moons before an
,ther radical is elected governor of I
hat commonwealth.
