A LAND OF LEGEND
A magazine editor has recently held
>i|> the glass of sparkling promise to
the pale, patched lips of Spain. If
Instead of Alphonso there was a sov-
erigu who was a student of econ-
omic and sociological conditions the
e. pects of Spain coming again into
u national reassert ion of industrial
and military power would be brightly
burnished, according to this observer
Which all df'pei ds on the point of
view.
It happens, however, to be an his*
• rical fact that Spain is really a leg-
endary land. The romance of the
Columbus tradition, the storied treas-
ures of the Spanish main have served
io give us a fictitious conception of
•Castile.
With the breaking up of the armada
Spain as a military power began to
dv. id!-, if is true, of course, that
: eir Most Christiai Majesties, Fer-
dinand and I ;ib< lb . conquered the in-
vading Moors but it should be observ-
ed thai the Moors had achieved a
finer civilization in Granada than any
led b) Spain. Today something
like half the )>opulatioi> of Spain is
unable either to read or write. The
country laclm the indispensable sta-
bility of a dependable common peo-
ple. There art suggestions of possi-
ble strength in the occasional flash-
es of rebellion against the oppressive
ord* r of things, but whether a spirit
sufficient to en lure a struggle against
the rule of the 'Bourbons abides in
supports justice
kane's contention
A great ii^lit has broken Into souu
' ia< io dark places, touching the en-
abling act and the powers of cort*
press in placing restrictions on a
to ate >hiie clothing it with statehood.
In discussing the sab- of the school
hinds, former Governor Haskell in
Ms New State Tribune, makes some
missions which are jit ,-,variautc
with his campaign utterances diS?n^
the enpiial location- election. Dur-
ing the capital campaign the "en
aiding act was not binding," accord-
ing to the formet governor, but in
h'y coin.mtion with ieli ience to the
. < hool lands he >i>s there are rules
iaid down by co<igr.\-s, WHICH THE
STATK IS HOI XI) TO FOLLOW.

ence, and in TI IK UVLTITl Dl-I OK

Rathe:- late foi1 the former governor
to acknowledge his mistake.
If congress could make "rules
which the state is bound to follow,"
in the matter of the school lands,
then congress was equally empower-
ed to prescribe rules locating tin
capital at Guthrie until 191:5.
Justice Kane's position is given
support by the ex-governor who
"move i the capital," in the follow
ing excerpt from the Tribune:
The Tribune presents the history of
the management and sale of state
lands and the profits derived there-
from. The state land was appropriat-
ed bv congress to the use of Oklaho
ma territory and later to the State
of Oklahoma for various purposes. A
portion for aid in support of the
common schools of the state; a por-
tion for the institutions of higher
education, and a portion for public
buildings. These lands have always
been leased either for agricultural or
grazing purposes ami under this pol-
icy, beginning way back in territor-
ial days ami continuing under state
government, there has grown up a
lease-holding element or tenantry
class, including a total of over ten
thousand lessees located in thirty-
nine different counties of the state
panama canal exposition
The house of representatives has
voted to hold n San Francisco the
expositio: thai will celebrate the op-
ening of the Panama canal. The (jues
tlon will now come before she senate.
While t ue quest ion was not decided
by a party \ >te. a large majority of
the Republicans favored San Fran
else . while a majority of the De-mo*
en-, .uj .parted Orleans, if a
simila ■ di. isif.iL is ij*iuio se -
a■ e S ni'Fi in^'wi 6 t. tli woo llf-hou-*
t ver, ' lie senate rever.-cs this decision
oi fails to act on the matter until the
term if the present congress expires
conditions in the house will be revers
ed. the Democrats will be in control,
and with such a division of the party
vote as was made last Tues ay New
Orleans would win.
There are many reasons whj Nsi
Orleans should win. The canal is
being built by the Fnlted States and
its celebration should be held where
it would attract the largest crowds—
or perhaps it would be better to say,
where the largest number of people
would be able to attei.d it. New Or-
leans is more accessible than San
Francisco. There are ten times as
many people in 1,000 miles of New
Orleans a:, in an equal distance of
8a*1 Francisco, seven cr eight times
as man; i; a radius of 5(M) in ea < !
New Orleans as of San Fran.-i co.
anJ four times as many witn n a rad-
ius of 'uo miles of the Southern as
of the Western city.
This wqum mean larger crowds at
X* v Orleans than at S.mi Francisco
more people would be able to attend
at Xew Orleai s than at San Francis-
co. and the cost of transportation for
i iren number won!,I be much less
ai New Orleans than at San Fran-
cisco.
Another fact Is worthy of consider-
ation. The cost of living is much
higher in San Fra: eisco than at New
Orleans and it. is reasonably certain
that hotel and lodging house bills will
be higher thi re. Not only the cost of
getting to San Francisco will be eat
er than that of getting to N >w Or-
leans. but the cos; of staying In the
western city will be higher than that
of stayln-in the city oil the big river.

CHANGE IS IMPERATIVE
Oklahoma at t • present time im-

is the natura! penalty of I he shortness
of ii.- lime which has elapsed since
tho state was settled, reasons th©
Ardinorcile. Ay, (cultural develop-
ment always precedes the develop-
ment of the manufacturing interests.
I lev i-vei i he time has arrived when
these con iiio.-s should change and
the next few years should s'e a mar-
veh.as increase ill the manufacturing
industries of the state.
In the development of manufactur-
ing. fuel supply is probably the most
important item and in this respect,
Okie (-ma has probably more natural
gas in sight than any other state in
the union and only a very small por
tlon of e pro'aide producing Held
lias been exploited. There is cer-
tainly enough gas to supply several
times I be p cent demand for many
years. The yield of petroleum usual-
