"I will tell you what the atate
debt ia. and the record* will bear
me out. There are bond*. Iaaued In
1908, to the amount of $1,400,000,
to pay membera of the conatitution-
al convention, the member* of the
first legislature, and to takd up a
large portion of outstanding terri-
torial warrants. In 1913 there were
•2,907,000 of bonds iaaued for out-
standing warrants made the first
three years of statehood. There ia
•847,420.22 in outstanding warrants,
■with money in the atate treasurer's
office to take up every one of them.
There are uncollected taxes of $.184*
702.94, and if these taxes were paid,
the total indebtedness of the state
would be $1,195,400.99.
‘‘Yet John Fields tells you of great
indebtedness, and the records will
prove every one of my statements
true. If the governor wants to cut
expenses, he can do it, only in his
own office, and John Fields could
save the state something like $15000,
a year, if he worked for nothing and
paid his own expenses.

Metisa Pictures Meads? Night
The democratic state campaign
committee has prepared a series of
pictures, consisting of three reels of
1000 feet each, taken of each state
institution that has been acquired
or built since statehood, and these
will be shown at the Camera theatre
in addition to the regular show next
Monday flight, Oct. 19. .
These pictures were prepared to
show what had gone with the state
funds that the republicans of Okla-
homa claim the democrats have
squandered. Don’t fail to see these
pictures.
Dr. Carl Wetzel and wife returned
last week from a several months
visit with his mother near Stutgart,

ing of E. ft. Coss, G. L. Crswford,
ft. V. McBride, G, R. Choate and A.
Ray Smith went to Fort Worth last
week to compete in a stock judging
contest with teams from Tulsa and
Arkansas. Texas won first, and re-
tains the silver cup, having been
first for three consecutive years,
Oklahoma taking second place. The
boys had not decided to attend this
contest until about a week ago, so
were not very well prepared for the
contest. Dr. McCampbell of Man-
hattan, Kas., who was one of the
judges in this contest, accompanied
them to Stillwater for a few days
visit.
Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Kern have
moved from Yale to this city to

Psapfc
While in Stillwater railing upon
the voters, we had a pieaaant Inter-
view with Judge Dale, candidate for
Judge of the District Court. He is
certainly fine judicial timber. Ills
experience as chief justice of Okla-
homa territory for flve years, and as
trial judge of the district courts,
make It certain that the public will
lie well served In a judicial way If
he is chosen by the voters. He states
thst there is no place for politics on .
the bench, and that he ia not run-
ning as a politician. Many persona,
other than democrats are support-
ing him. The Logan County New*,
an independent paper, recently In
an editorial, had this to aay about
his candidacy:
"Possibly no stronger character, '
more efficient applicant and higher
class gentleman could seek the nom-
ination for diatrlct judge of this
district than Frank Dale. For n
quarter ofn century he has been
Identified with Hie courts of Okla-
homa, having served as Chief Jeatioo
of the supreme bench, having held
court in a number of counties. He
is a high class gentleman, always
courteous, fair, and at all time* con-
siderate of the other fellow'v right.
He is a progressive citizen, ever ,
alert to the advance of the county
and community in which he live*. •
His great knowledge of law, his knen .
conception of its fnfentfon, make*
him most excellent qualified-foe
the position of diatrlct judge, a po-
sftftfa which, 1f fie W chosen, he will
fill with dignity,
and that M sure to meet with the
approval of the people."
