Voters of School District.
The last legislature changed the
time of holding ihe anual school
meeting to the last Tue*dav iti May.
This year it make* ; fa on the 30
of May, and th \tiornev General
has decided that th * 30th is a legal
holidav and that the election will
have to be held on Wednesday, the
31st of May. All blanks will be

County Supervision.
No one can tell how long the far-
rs of Oklahoma will be able to
tain and maintain their homes
under the adverse und vicious laws
acted by the professional men
out of practice, and the business
n out of business sent bv the va-
rious towns to our territorial as
mblies.
What Is known a* the County su
rvision road law enacted by the
ghth Assembly is one, if adopted,
add another to the long list of
salaried officers supported by the
tax payers. It will more complete
entralize the counties, and fur
ther destroy the independence and
lutonomy of the townships. It will
enormously enlarge the powers and
patronage of the county commis-
sioners, already too large, ana
thereby increase the tendency
extravagance and corruption.
The law is not operative in any I
ountry until adopted by a vot
the peoplr. Alt election may bt
alied at any time by a petition of
100 freeholders it provides for a
division of the country into S or 4
districts, not more than one for
ich 5000 pofJUIatlOh h will be
seen that all the districts itiav. and
Aturall.v will be Centered to the
county Spat ttfwn by this means
the taxes fi'ottt all the farms in the
count > may be efcpgnded on tin-
roads adjacent lb the faVored town
The law then provides for the
office of a County engineer at a sal
of lltMtl to ftlVIW) with a de-
put \ at a tltv and as many
rod men and chaimrien he may
lect to employ;
Some dhUnken galoot of an alleg
d cbunty engineer toUld waste
wenty thousand dollars of the
peoples Inonev. and the bounty
would have nothlif^ fd «<hrt\V for it
but a lot of profiles and notes, as
worthless and inacurate as Logan
bounty's loOO map
Then do the people elect the sup
ervisors in the road districts? Not
much. They are appointed by the
lunty commissionriefl upon the
nomination of tne County Engineer.
Then the bureauocracy is establish
ep and the countv ring is buttressed
ind fortfied on every side. Then the
ommissners are authorized to levy
a tax of 9 mills on the dollar on all
the property in the County for the
wherewith to keep the machine a
going The fjoll tax is deduced to
two dollars. As the district super
visors must necessarilv bfe Uhae
juainted with nine tenths of the
>f the people of his district he will
ce unable to collect the poll tax ex-
cept from those who war.t ti) pay it
The latV practically wipes th<' prll
tax out.
The law is. tile result of tbd ndca-
deintc discussion of the good road
problem. It is the work of road
builders who never held a scraper
It is the legislation people-who pav
little or no taXes.
It it is based on the theory of a
number of jack leg lawyers and other
laz aroni that the people are unable
conduct their own affairs, and elect
their own officers. It removes the
whole road supervision from the
townships and places it with the
counties.
Township affairs are generally
conducted honestly, economically
and effectively. County affairs are
often conducted extravagantly,
wastefully, and not all ways honest-
ly.
A striking comparison of the two
systems may be seen in this neigh-
borhood.
An unapproachable and inaccess
able bridg.- has been built across
Campbell creek by the county at a
cost of about $2500. It will cost
yet $400 to make it passable. The
township bridged the same stream
2 miles further down its course for
*100, and the bridge is used every
day. There is not even a suspicion
of dishonesty or graft in this county
bridge either. If this is the result
of honest work, what would it be if
there was plunder in it?
There is one mighty good point
about this law - the people have a
iu a future issue.
Legislatures have in ate years. !
perbap> unconsciously adapted the I
spirit aud pract ce of tin- referen |
dum. Laws of great import have |
been submitted to a vote of the peo i
pie. The people must understood
that laws have much more weight |
aud authority when ratified v pop-
ular vote than mere acts of the leg
islature. For this reason these
laws should be thoroughly discuss-
ed and well understood by the peo*
pie before the.v vote on them.
Countv hi^h schoo , this roa dlaw
or the consolidation law may be
sprung on the people at any time.
The columns of the Aovasck are
open for any one who has ideas to
offer on either side af the debate.

Socialism as a Lit e Issue
With a suddenness that must be
startling to those who note only
the surface of events, Socialism has
become a factor in our political
and industral life. The Socialist
vote for President last fall
attracted a great deal of attention
—more, perhaps, than in itself de-
served— but it was in no way a
measure of the importance of the
Socialistic movement. And year by
year as science compels consolida
tions and eooperutlons on a scale im-
possible In the past, the collectivist
proposals formulated bv the
German Jew. Karl Mart, out of the
theorizing?1 of the great French
economists of the eighteenth centu
are bound to receive mora and
more Attention
Whatever one believes about it,he
must inform himself. Fo< . while
Mark Hanna s prediction th e S > i-
ii i.-m would be the storm center
of the next great political battle
in this country seemed exaggerated
wheh he made il a few yeat:" ago,
his farsightedness is alreadv vindi
cated. To fight for Socialism, you
must understand it. to fight against
Socialism, you must understand i'.

It is funay, how we have all found

existence we denied ten or a dozen
years ago. The Question tKiit

The other da* a pamphlet came
to the Gazette which seemed about
the right thing. It was going after
railroad discrimination. It seemed
sane and calm and well poised. The

through the wheels of logic. When
io and behold the pamphlet yvas
written and printed in lS'JO, and
was written by Percy Daniels! The

This is neither a rhvme i,or a

or philosophy. It is mearly a plain
statement of a lact,aud those who
read it. inav draw their own conclu-
sions.
A few weeks ago district court
was in session in a western city
and one of the jurymen, durir.g
a recess ot the court, finding him-
self temporarily wlthdut funds,
accosted an attorny interested in
the case then being tried and
sought the loan of a dollar.
The judge learned of this,and when
court convened cal'ed the juror be-
fore him andadmin istered a judicial
rdbuhg that fairly sizzled. The juror !
was dismissed with a rebuke,and j
the trial began over again with a j
new juror in the box.
The case it. question was where-I
in a railroad company was a party to
the suit. The judge who dismissed
the juror who had tried to borrow |
a dollar from one of the the attor-
neys, leaned back In bis judicial
Chair and resumed his hearing of j
the case, notwithstanding the fact|
that he carried in his pocket an an-
nual pass over that same railfoal,
the paSs being good for himself a
