The Deal
Looks Crooked
Everv voter should vote NO 011
the capital move scheme, unless
he wants to contribute six hun-
dred thousand dollars to the state
administration for lot speculation ;
and when we recall Haskell s bad
lot deal in Muskogee, now in the
federal court, we think he is not
safe to trust with §600,000 more
of taxes. The proposed bill pro-
vides for a committee ot three to
be appointed by the governor to 1
handle the transaction under
bond for $50,000. Compare that!
A bond of $50,000 to secure
$600,000 cash! And who is the
committee? W ill it be some 01
ihose indicted with Haskell now.
or some others of equal company.'
They talk of the big speculation
in lots at Oklahoma City, and
cite the packers .is being success-
ful. Yes, but where are the
packers and where will the cap-
ital lots be? As everybody knows
Oklahoma City is sold out in lots
for about ten miles north and
south and six or seven miles east
and west. More land than Chi-
cago covers now. Where will the
state capital lots ber Out near
Edmond is where the ring at the
legislature got their options. Do
the tax payers of the various
counties want to speculate out by
Edmond, buying from a syndi-
cate that already has the land
grabbed? We think not. There's
nothing in the speculation scheme,
li is a bait to sell the tax payers
$600,000 worth of outside lands.
If the whole state administration,
excepting the booze box, was
fenced in on an 160-acre tract it
would not make a lot worth $30
to anybody. The packing houses
are no comparison. They came
flaunting expenditures of imagin-
ary millions, the employment of
untold thousands of men and
have sold out on that basis. They
will spend a few hundred thous-
and and employ a few hundred
men---sometime. Is the moving
of the capital to cost the state
millions? Will the capital em-
ploy as many men as the packers?
If such extravagance is to be
foisted on the public to speculate
in lots, it is best to let the cap-
ital alone. Our taxes now are ex-
