J. T. Highley for State Printer.
J. I Highley, Oklahoma City-
popular police judge, was here Wed-
nesday interviewing the voters rela
tive to his candidacy for state printer
subject to the action of the demo-
crats on \ugust 2nd. Mr. Highley
resided in Norman several years ago.
He is a splendid campaigner and
makes friends on first acquaintance.
He started in life as the "devil" in a
print shop and worked up to editor
and owner of a leading paper. He
served a term as postmaster under
Cleveland's first administration.
He founded the Bridgeport (Tex.)
Reporter, the Geary (Okla.) Gazette
and the Bridgeport (Okla.) Reporter,
all democratic newspapers lie pul
lis heel the Labor Signal in Oklahoma
City for three years previous t«> his
election as police judge. When the
second legislature provided tor the
Boys Training School local.- 1 at
Paul* Valley, Governor Haskell ap
pointed him a member of the board
of control, a position of honor and no
salary.
Tom Highley is a man of sterling
honesty and integrity, a democrat
among democrats and thoroughly
qualified to till the position for which
he aspires.
He ha- maso- friends in Cleveland
county who would be "lad to see him
state printer.
Where Murray Stands.
Tishomingo, Okla., June 16.—I ob-
served in yesterday's Capital that Joe
McXeal (forty-per cent-Jot-) stated at
Cherokee that "Bill Murray i- repudi-
ating the state administration."
Reolying to t hi - I have t- say that
neither in my Altus speech opening
my campaign nor in any other speech
have 1 repudiated or even referred to
the administration. I ha\e usually pre-
faced my remarks with the statement
that "I do not at this turn feel call
ed upon to match the tight between
the democratic party and any other.
We will defend the party and iire*
ord after the Jnd day of August: nor
do I feel called upon to defend or
condemn any man now in office or
who has ever held office, for the rea-
on that I am not personally responsi
ble for any good things done by anv
man in office and should not attempt
to ride in on some other man's merit,
and if anything wrong has been done
I am not responsible for it and should
not be charged with . I am concern
ed with my own record and ready to
defend it as the people will want to
know ' what is there in Hill Murrav '
"But now since Mr McXeal make-
this open statement I want to say
that 1 endorse the democratic party
delegates to the constitutional ronvi n
tion up to the present time .and wln-n
I do this for a large portion of th« I
time 1 am endorsing my own record,
and the man or candidate who praise- >
the constitution of the state and the
laws, as the large body of our laws
were passed by the first legislature,
is praising tny own work as well a-
the other gentlement charged as 1
was, and in the matter of enforcement
of the same I have to state further
that there are men in public office
whose conduct I do not approve but
such would have occurred under any
administration.
Referring especially to Governor C.
X. Haskell, I have to sav that he has
done many things that I heartily ap-
prove. I differ with him on other poli-
cies, particularly his appointive poli-
cy, as I differed from him in the consti-
tutional convention. There are other
questions that have excited criticism
that 1 knew nothing of and no one
can know except the man who knows
the details of the matters criticised.
I realize also that his difficulties since
statehood we;e greater than that sur-
rounding the formative period of any
state. Notwithstanding all these thing-
no man can deny that on the whole
he has made a good governor
L make this statement solely in view
of the wrong impression sought to
be made by Mr Mi Neal in hi- ( hero
kee address My sincere desire i- to
make this canvas upon my ow.i rec-
ord and upon my own integrity and
ability to till ihat position, because 1
have said that if elected I will be gov
ernor. Beyond doubt the people will
want to know whether by my record
or by other qualifications 1 shall be
capable of performing the duties of
the office.
Yours truly,
YVM II. MURRAY.
Arc You a Vandal?
In the last i-sue of the Transcript
I notice that the participants in the
present state administration arc re
ferred to as vandals, and as the demo-
cratic party for the most part are re-
sponsible for tin- administration they
as a whole and individually are re-
ferred to. They arc not all however,
as it is generally well known that a
large number of republicans and per
sons of other parties also had a part
in bringing about the present state of
affairs. I hese also must be considered
under the class above referred to, for
all persons concerned in the perpe
tration of an act are equally guilty as
the perpetrator or perpetrator*. So all
you democrats and others sit up and
take notice of just what you are in
the estimation of the authors and
sanctioned of this statement. The
term vandal is not a common one.
but is rather broad in the amount of
meaning it conveys, and it is just to
inform all you who come under this
class what you really are that I am
writing this article. You know from
what is written above whether or not
you are included and if you are not
eligible to be classed among us you
need not harken to this article. In
everyday life one who take- some-
thing belonging to some one else, for
personal gratification, and with de-
triment to the person relieved, is a
tliiel. A person who robs a house at
night or dav using stealth and if nec-
essary violence is a little more danger
«mis thiei and i- styled a burgler. One
who al<>ne oi aided and ab«tted 1>\
others who relieves another or others
of personal belongines using force or
inimidation or both i- a robber. And
any one who i- a vandal is all these
and more When the Roman empire
began her decline and was being over
run by barbarians and half civilized
tribes, who burned her cities, killed
her people, defamed her women, plun-
dered her treasures, destroyed her
evidences of art and ducation, and
robbed her dead, she was in the hand-
of vandals, and there were millions of
them, all equally guilty. And if we
accept the view of the author of the
article, who says that Oklahoma is in
the hands of vandals, one hundred
thousand and more of the people of
Oklahoma who are responsible for
this by their vote, belong to the class
described above. It may be that the
author of the above term, applied to
a large number of the people of Ok-
lahoma, is narrow minded enough not
to understand the full significance of
hi- faying and for charity's sake K t
us hope this is so. According to to his
view if you are a republican and vot-
ed the right way you are absolved and
made clean, but if vou are a democrat
or if you are in any way or to any ex
tent respon-ible for the present state
of affairs in Oklahoma or any part
of Oklahoma, you are from this view
everything the term vandal implies
If you are guilty you can very grace
fully acknowledge same, by joining
the ranks of the sinless and repudiate
your past misdeeds by your future
act-. But if your past wrath rises up
in revolt against t hi - unjust accu>a
tion. and deep down in your soul you
resent this base implication, bow can
you change your front and acknowl
edge that vou art a vandal: And I
wonder if there are any who will not
resent being classed as such.

Billion Dollar Congress.
Democrats in congrcss are amused
and thi republicans are considerably
put out by the discrepancy between
the statements of Senator Hale and
Chairman Tawney of the house ap-
nropriations committee a- to the to-
tals of the appropriations made at the
session which closed on Saturday
night.
Mr Tawney, by ignoring the an
thorizations for expenditures on riv-
er- and harbors, on public buildfngs
and other accounts, made it appear
that the totals amounted up to only
$K93,120,700.64, thus apparently sav-
ing the session from the $1,000,000,
000 stigma and vindicating the prom-
ises of the nresident that expendi
tures would be reduced under his ad
ministration. But Senator Hale of
Maine, not being particularly interest-
ed in the vindication < f the adminis
tration pledges, and sometimes hav-
ing an uncomfortable way of telling
the truth and shaming the devil, at
least in matters of no personal coil
cern tohimself, refused to juggle the
figure- a- ( hairnian Tawney did.
Before final adjournment Saturday
night lie made a statement of the ap-
propriations for the session, which
shows that thev ran above the $1,000,
000,000 mark. He did not hesitate to
include among the expenditures that
must be charged up to the late ses-
sion tlu authorization for future con
tracts for river and harbor work and
the authorizations for new public
buildings and for improvements of
existing ones. Whenever the money
for ilie-c objects is expended it of
course can not be denied that the
session i- responsible for making
them.
According to Senator Hale, the to-
tal appropriation* of the sc>-ion were
$1,026,537,500, while the totals for the
last previous session he give- as $1.
055,663,267 He thus explodes the
claim of C hairman Tawney that the
late se- ion was not a $1,000,000,000
one and puts the republicans in a
somewhat embarrassing position, so
tar a- making campaign material out
of the alleged economical tendencies
of this congress is conecrned.
Representative Livingston of Geor-
gia, the ranking democrat of the
house anpropriations committee, con-
tends that even Senator Halt- failed
to tell the whole story of republican
extravagance in the late session. He
a-scrts that the total of appropria
•I-ii
IH'O.OOO. but that it wa- about $15,000,
IIIKI.OOO greater than the last -e- -ion of
the first or special session of this con
gre--. He puts the grand total at $1,~
096,952,051.44, while the grand total
for the la-t session of the sixtieth
congress he figures out at $1,081,-
142.88.
Railroads or People—Which?
Shall the people rule the railroads
or shall the railroad- rule the people"
Such a question has agitated the mind
of the public for these many years. It
was entertained generally when the
\merican people were discu -ing pub
lie ownership m the days of populism.
It was entertained seriously when a
democratic constitutional convention
declared in 1907 that the railroads
should obey the law and that the peo-
ple should be supreme in Oklahoma.
It is being entertained as a vital ques-
tikase declaring that railroads -hall
have unquestioned power to ignore
anv or all state laws

been fought in Oklahoma the rail
roads have taken a hand. They op-

Resume of Legislation.
Washington, June 20.—With the ad-
journment of congress apparently in
sight thi- week, the situation in both I
houses indicates that at the time of
adjournment President Taft will have
obtained the following legislation in
substantially the form in which he
wanted it
Establishment of postal savings
banks (pending).
Statehood for Arizona and New
M exico.
Creation of a bureau of mines and
mining.
Two battleshins.
Reorganization oi the lighthouse
service.
\ commission to report upon eco-
nomics in expenditures.
I lie suppression • f white slave im-
portations.
A bond i.-sue to complete reclama
tion projects (pending).
Extension of the law relating to
safety appliances on railroads.
A tariff commission (weakened by
the standpatters).
In addition to the foregoing con-
gress enacted legislation on the fol-
lowing subjects recommended by the
president, but -o rewritten by the in
siirgents and democrats as to be in the
main entirely different from what the
president had recommended: The rail-
road bill and the land withdrawal bill.
The folio wing legislation recom-
mended by the president failed of pas
sage, the first three items being re
publican platform demands:
Legislation defining the power of
federal courts to issue injunctions.
Legislation to revive the American
merchant marine.
Creation of a bureau of public health
Creation of a commission to sim-
plify and expedite the procedure of
federal courts
Publicity of political Campaign con
tributions.
New form of government for Alas-
ka.
Increase in postage rates on maga-
zines and periodicals.
Ami ndment to the Sherman anti-
trust law permitting the federal incor-
poration of corporations engaged in
interstate commerce.
Seven of the foregoing bills, which
have pa.-sed or which are regarded as
safe are also in the main in compliance
with the demands of the democratic
platform as follows:
Postal savings banks.
Further regulation of railroads.
Curtailment of power of the speak-
er of the house of representatives.
f ederal regulation of telephones and
telegraphs.
Statehood for Arizona and New
Mexico
Legislation to conserve natural re
sources.
Legislation to effect economics in
public expenditures.
No Relief For Consumer.
However satisfactory the railroad
bill passed bv the -enate may be as
the outcome of a hard fought battle
between the great railroad interests
and the champions of the people, there
is nothing in it to arouse enthusiasm
onthe part of a public that wants re-
ate rates.
The progressive senator-, backed bv
public opinion, found Aldrich and

tion on the bill Dangerous provisions
were eliminated. Amendments in the
public interest were in-crted. Hut no
amount of pressure, either in the form
of arguments by progressives or of in

to overcome the opposition of the
machine t' anv proposition to bring

Reasonablt rates cannot be secured
without a valuation of railroad prop-
erty.
I_hc interstate commerce act of
1KS7 ilt <Tared for reasonable rates, but
omitted to prvide for the valuation of
railroad property, thus making the
reasi nable rate provision worthless.
The supreme court and the inter
tate commerce commission declared
the valuation of railroad property
neci-ssary to a determination of reas-
"liablc railway rate-, years prior to
the -nssage of the Hepburn bill, en-
acted in 1906.
Ne vertheless the congres.s which
passed the Hepburn act refused to
provide for the valuation of railroad
property.
President Taft recognized the im
portance of the valuation of railway
property in his speech of acceptance
but omitted to mention it in his speci-
al message to congress on interstate
commerce.
The democratic national platform
declared in favor of the valuation of
railw av property.
But the railroad bill pas-ed by the
sen;.te contains 110 provision for the
valuation of the physical property of
railway companies engaged in inter-
state commerce.
Hence we have, after forty years of
struggle, 110 basis f<.r determining the
reasonableness of railway rates.
How much longer will the people
stand at the dors of a railway-con-
trolled congres-. knocking vainly for
admission.—La I ollette's W eekly.

ia ready to mail. It will be sent to any person interested in
fruit-growing on receipt of 7 cents to cover postage. The
Stark Year Book for 1910 represents an entirely new idea in
nurserymen's literature—it is a work of art as well a* a
catalogue of Stark Nursery products. Within its covers are 32 full-page illustrations of
fruits and flowers, representing 175 varieties, done in four colors, and exactly reproducing
nature. 84 pages are devoted to descriptions, prices, I records.
Stark Delicious, the apple that has revolutionized orchard planting and established a
new standard of apple values (selling at $10.00 per bushel box this year,; Stark King
David, another apple of wondrous quality and merit; Stark King Philip, a hardy black
grape of California grape quality, and dozens of the very best things in the horticultural
world are fully described, illustrated, and priced.
To any one planting one tree or many, of fruits or ornamental, this book is of
inestimable value—a horticultural text-book—a guide to proper sel ction.
Stark trees have stood the supreme test of actual planting for 85 years they are the
yard-stick by which all other nursery products are measured—they are the tirst choice of
this country s most successful orchardists. The success of the orchard is dependent on
the kind and quality of tree planted. Stark varieties are the best of the best. Our record
of 85 years of successful selling is a positive guarantee of tree quality.
Before you decide to buy, send 7 cents for the Stark
Year Book—do it today before the edition is exhausted. O
