POLITICAL ITEMS OF INTEREST
Collected and Compiled by The Democratic Preaa Bureau
Lee Hotel, Oklahoma City
Why Business Men Should Favor
the Constitution and Democracy
To the eni that there may be gen-
uine prosperity It la necessary that
there should be harmonious accord be-
tween all the elements of society In
the economics of a state. Laws must
be so framed as to be just, and not
only to preserve the public peace, but
also Oat every person shall have an
equal opportunity In life's race. Such
a governmental fabric can but pro-
duce a high type of citizenship, which
Is always a guarantee of just regard
for vested rights.
The wise, honest business man
should be as much opposed to the
pernicious action of predatory wealth
as the honest ranchman Is U ithe
range cattle thjef, and the at;m of
government should be extended tr
protect the business man in his le-
gitimate enterprises just the same as
It is to protect the cattle upon the
ramges from the thief, and we assert
that the proposed constitution as sub-
mitted to the people meets this high
standard. However, while every le-
gitimate business is safe under its
provisions yet the predicate is laid
therein to drive every monopoly out
of the state, and while that is done
legitimate business Is protected, and
the honest business man is safe.
The votaries of special interests
and of public service corporations
who always regard every enactment
for the regulation of such corpora-
tions, and for the protection of the
general "public, as 'an attack *upon
vested interests, have sought to pre-
judice the m'nds of the business In-
terests of this state against the con-
stitution. Had .a constitution been
so framed as to satisfy the greed of
public service corporations no legiti-
mate business enterprise in this state
would be safe, but would exist only
by sufferance of these giants of com-
merce.
Constitutional Provisions
We herein call the attention of the
people of this state to certain pro-
visions in this constitution: "All
persons have the inherent right of
life, liberty and the pursuit of hap-
piness, and the enjoyment of the
gains of their own industry." Sec. 2,
Art. 2, Bill of Rights.
"The courts of justice of the state
shall be open to every person, and
speedy and certain remedy afforded
for evfery wrong and for every in-
jury to person, property or reputa-
tion- and right and justice shall be
administered without delay, denial or
prejudice." Sec. 6, Art. 2, Bill oi
Rights. , ,
"No person shall be deprived of
jife, liberty or property without due
process of law." Sec. 7, Art 2, Bill
of Rights.
"No bill of attainder, ex post facto
taw, nor any law impairing the obli-
gations of contracts shall ever be
passed." Sec. 15, Art. 2, Bill of
Rights.
"The legislature shall pass no law
I granting to any association, corpora-
tion or individual any exclusive
fights or immunities within
state." Sec. 51, Art. 5.
Life, liberty and property are espe-
cially safeguarded and protected.
There is not another state In the
union w'here these unalienable rights
to life, liberty and property are more
carefully preserved, and yet you hear
the howling representatives of preda-
tory wealth saying tbat the framers
o this constitution have made a direct
attack upon vested rights.
Honest Property vr( Dishonest Prop-
erty
and other public service corporations
But for such safeguards towns and
cities might become a prey to the mo-
nopoly of some telephone company, or
electric light company or gas com-
pany.
Likewise but for such safeguard
preventing discrimination and extor-
tion and abuse by railroads, towns
and cities might be made or unmade,
manufacturing plants might be mad"
prosperous or become bankrupt a^
the whim of a general freight agent
of one cf these giants of commerce
Under these regulations all street
railways and trolley lines shall be
made to furnish adequate and prooer
accommodation to the public for a
just compensation.
Speedy Trials vs. Delayr
One of the impediments to effect-
ive legislation in the past has been
on account of delays brought about
MONDAY UNIVERSAL WASH DAY.
The man that owns a horse or any -- prellm,nary injunctlcns issued by
other property honestly and lawfully _
r nr / nnstltil-
acquired has as complete and "nde-
faasible title as if he owned it with-
in the borders of the magnificent old
state of Virginia, the mother of pres-
idents, or within the great state of
Massachusetts the home of the Purl-
tans.
But suppose that a man had stolen
a horse and had it in his possession.
Would not the strong arm of the law
deprive him of his plunder? Would
any man gainsay that? And yet when
we lay the foundatlcn in a constitu-
tion to divest public service corpora-
tions of fictitious values, or so called
values that are stolen from the peo-
ple In the way of public privileges
and watered stock3, which privileges
belong to the people, they say we are
making a direct attack upon vested
rights.
Sometimes we make an effort to re-
cover the stolen property and fail.
It may be that under existing condi-
tions that we are not able to recover
from public service corporations what
they have plundered from the people.
But the fact that we have laid a rea-
sonable foundation for such action to
be honestly, conservatively and justly
administered does not make us ene-
mies to vested rights, but Is the
greatest earnest that we are the
friends of property rights when law-
fully and honestly acquired.
Same Offices as In Other States
The objection lis made by some
that too many offices have been cre-
ated. No more offices have been
created in Oklahoma than in any
other state of its size and of Its pop-
ulation and wealth. True, we have
created more elective offices, and for
that reason these offices have been
brought more prominently before the
public. In most of the other states al
grgat many of these officers are ap-
pointive and therefore not brought so
prominently before the people, special
attention being given thereto more by
the applicants for office.
Speedy Justice
In our judiciary system we have so
created the courts as to carry into
effect the declaraticn in the bill of
rights that the courts of justice shall
be open to every person, and speedy
and certain remedy afforded for every
wrong, and for every injury to person
or property or reputation; and we
have provided that the supreme court
shall render a written opinion in each
case within six months after such
ease shall have been submitted for
this I decision.
We ihave provided against delay
No money shall ever be paid out
Df the treasury of this state, nor any
of its funds, nor any of the fund3 un-
der its management, except in pur-
suance of an appropriation by law,
nor unless such payments be made
within two and one-half years after
the passage of such appropriation act,
and every such law making a new
appropriation, or continuing or rev 3
ing appropriations shall distinctly
specify the sum appropriated and the
object to which It is to be applied, and
it shpll not be sufficient for such law
to refer to any other law to fix such
sum." Sec. 55, Art. 5.
"The general appropriation bill
shall embrace nothing but appropria-
tions for the expenses of the execu-
We have sought to lay the foundation
for the enforcement of the law so
as to preserve the peace and afford
the business Interests a speedy op-
portunity to litigate their just rights^
HoneV. Corporations vs *
Corporations
These votaries of the special in
terests, through the venal press of
the country, have attacked the chap-
ter on corporations as being class leg-
islation and destructive of property
Interests, but when you examine the
constitution and laws of such states
as Minnesota, North Carolina, Texas,
Virgina and New York, you will find
that they have enacted similar pro-
visions relative to the regulation of
public service corporationsw These
five legislative and judicial depart- enactments, however, have been very
men'ts of the state and for interest on recent )n New York, only since the
wave of reform #vept over the state
ments
the public debt."
"The salary of no officer or em-
ploye of the state or any sub-division
thereof shall be increased In such bill,
nor shall any appropriation be made
therein for any such officer or em-
ploye unless his employment or the
amount of his salary shall have been
provided by law.'
"All other appropriations shall be
made by separate bills, each embrac-
ing but one subject." Sec. 56, Art. 5.
"The legislature shall provide by
law for the establishment and main-
tenance of an efficient system of
checks and balances between the of-
ficers of the executive department,
and all commissioners and superin-
tendent* and boards of control of
state institutions, and all other offi-
cers." Sec. 60, Art. 5.
Inalienable Rights
These provisions are set out in the
which was brought about by the ex-
posures resultant from the insurance
investigations.
It is nothing but Just and pr per
that public service corporations which
transact and conduct and carry on
their business by virtue of a privilege
granted by the state or municipality
should be so regulated and controlled
In all matters relating to the perform-
ance of their duties and their charges
therefor so as to prevent abuses, un-
jnst discriminations and extortions.
They should be required to establish
and maintain reasonable facilities and
nisi prtus courts. In our constitu
tion we have provided for an appeal
to be taken by any interested party
from the decision of the corporation
commission direct to the supreme
court of the state. By that means It
will become more difficult for in-
junctions to be secured from nisi
prius courts. Federal courts will have
less excuse for Issuing injunctions, for
when a petition is presented for an
njunctlon the petitioner or complain-
ant can not show that he has not an
adequate remedy at law, for It can be
shown that he ha8 the right to appeul
to the supreme court of the state, "1
when a federal question has become
Involved he has the further right to
appeal from the supreme court of the
state to the supreme court of the
United States. In other words, wo
have provided our battle ground. We
have selected our own vantage
ground. We have provided this pro-
cedure in order to expedite such liti-
gation. It is especially stipulated that
all such appeals affecting rate
charges or classifications of traffic
shall have precedence on the docket
of the supreme court next after the
habeas corpus and state cases.
We have sought to profit by the
experience of the past and prevent
such delays as have been occasioned
by the issuing of preliminary injunc-
ti-., by nisi prius courts, either state
or federal. Mark you, we have
vouchsafed to public service corpora-
tions due process of law and Ithe
protection cf the courts. Whilst we
have done this, however, we have
sought to provide that such litigation
shall be as speedily terminated as
possible In the interest 6t public jus-
tice and before our own tribunals.
We invite the attention of the bus!'
ness men of this state to the chapter
on corporations in the constitution
submitted for ratification or rejection.
We submit that there is not a sen
tence therein that is hostile to hon-
est business methods,
What state can be fair and permit
all of its public privileges or fran
chises to be acquired by corporations
which are overstocked and over bond
ed, and by such means the people are
forced to pay tribute in the way of
excessive freights, rates, tariffs, etc.
in order to pay dividends upon stocks
which have fictitious values cf bonds
which have predatory values.
Is it in the Interest of good hon-
est government to frame laws so that
such values shall become legalized so
that the taint and the fraud and tho
corruption therein shail be removed
and the approval of law written there-
on, while at the same time it means
the extorting from the shipper, from
the consumer, and from the laborer
an excess in charges In order that fat
dividends and interests may be de-
clared and ordered paid thereon. If
that Is to be considered the legiti-
mate business of the country, then It
is only a question of time when there
will only be a few business enter-
prises and everything else will be in
attitude of commercial vessalage
and tutelage.
Education, Public Institutions and
Public Improvements
We have laid the foundation llke-
wls# for a broad system of education,
including common schools and staU)
institutions. Likewise we have made
ample provision for charitable, penal
and eleemosynary institutions; tand
also provided for a system of public
highways, roads and internal improve-
ments, and for levees, drainage,
ditches and irrigation.
Banking Department
We uKewise have laid the founda-
tion for a safe banking department
and have regulated the rate of inter
est in a considerate and conservative
way We have made the legal iate
six per cent and the contract rata
not to exceed ten per cent, and hav«
adopted tho same penalty for usur>
that is prescribed by the federal gov-
Recognized as Such Over Almost All
the World.
W:hy does nearly all the civilized
world wash clothes on Monday? What
has Monday to do with washing? It
was originally tha moon's day and
was sacred to the queen of night.
I read in a schoolboy's history that
the Pilgrims landed on Monday and
the good women immediately set
about washing the clothes that had
been soiled on the trip over. We
might judge from that alleged fact
that no washing was done aboard
ship; yet the finest place for such
necessary work of sanitation and
blessedness Is «mt at sea where there
Is plenty of water and nearly al-
ways a drying wind.
The voyage of tho little Mayflower
lasted 63 days, I believe, and as near-
ly as we can now reckon the landing
was made at Plymouth Hock on a
Monday, though some historians in-
sist on Friday. It must have been a
vile and filthy vessel on arrival, with
102 passengers and crew going over
two months without washing their
linen. Linen? What did they wear
in 1620? Can you realfto liow big
was the Mayflower? A miserable lit-
tle bark of 160 tons (Capt. John
Smith) or 180 tons (according to
Bradford).

Economy, Publicity and tha Paramount
Interest of Policyholder
President Klngsley. 'of tha New
York Life Insurance Company, says.
In an address to the policyholders,
that his plan of administration in-
volyes those points:
"First: Strict economy; second,
the widest, fairest and fullest public-
ity; third, the continuance of the New
York Life as a world-wide institution;
fourth, such an amount of new busi-
ness under the law as we can secure
while practicing intelligent economy,
and enforcing the idea that the inter-
est of the policy-holder is paramount."
The Advantage of Reading.
'Beg fardon, sir," said the weary
hobo as he stood at the farmhouse
door, "but might I sleep in your barn
to-night? 1 haven't had a roof over
my head for ten days."
"I congratulate you," said the kind-
ly farmer. "That is a splendid thing.
I have just read in one of my ten-cent
magazines that it is not too much to
say that to the delicate, highly-strungr.
easily-knocked-up individual the ad-
vantages of sleeping in tho open alt
are enormous. Pallid cheeks take on
a ruddy hue, colds - are unknown,
nerves are forgotten, and irritability
becomes a phase of the past. A
small plot and a little perseverenca
are tho only necessaries and the re-
sult is assured. You are very wel-
come to the use of my potato patch,

Long Time to Sweep.
Everything, even a magnificent
church, must be regarded from th
point of view of the beholder. A Lon-
don paper says that two country girls,
who acted as if they might be enjoy-
ing a holiday from domestic Bervice,
were observed walking down the
aisles of St. Paul's Cathedral. Under
the great dome one of them stood
and gazed around her with an air of
such wonder that a spectator might
well suppose that she was awestruck
by her solemn surroundings. Bttt
when she spoke, the idea was dissi-
pated. "Oh, Sarah," s' a exclaimed,
"wouldn't this place take a long time
to sweep?"
Proof.
The Bride—How do you know that
man across the aisle is a pugilist?
The Groom—Why, just listen how
fluently he talks.
If he has a large family to support,
man can't afford to have any other
extravagant habits.
SOAKED IN COFFEE
The porter smiled pityingly at Lam-
bert's Ignorance. "Pinln' kyar?" he
echoed. "Why boss, 'taln't been a
year since dey put on dls hyer parlor
kyar on de line. Whaffor dey put a
dlnin' kyar on?"
Lambert looked at the car occupied
only by himself and Miss Fulton and
agreed. A diner would have been a
useless luxury. It was only a 100-
mile branch, and they were supposed
♦o do it In five hours.
The conductor was on the steps,
puffing at a cigar, and Lambert sat
town beside htm.
"How far are wo to the next sta-
tion?" he demanded.
"We're in a station now," explained
■he conductor. "It's on the other side
of tho train."
"Do you suppose I could get some-
thing to eat over there?" he asked.
"it's a store," was tho noncommit-
tal answer. "I remember we put oft
a box of crackers last week."
Lambert dropped to the dusty road-
bed and strode across the strip of
sand. The store was closed and dark,
but the light shone from the kitchen
in tho rear and grumbllngly the pro-
prietor consented to accommodate the
stranger.
The stock was small and uninviting.
"Hog and hominy," the staple foods,
were produced locally. A barrel of
flour, a small cheese and a limited
stock of canned goods constituted the
grocery department, but search dis-
covered a can of Vienna sausages,
some canned peaches, some soda
crackers and cheese, and the store-
keeper's wife promised a pot of cof-
fee.
Lambert sat on the steps
The kidneys have a great work to
do in keeping the blood pure. When
they get out of order
It causes backache,
headaches, dizziness
languor and distress-
ing urinary troubles.
Keep the kidneys well
and all these suffer-
ings will be saved
you. Mrs. S.A. Moore,
proprietor of a res-
taurant at Water-
ville, Mo., says: "Be-
fore using Doan's Kidney Pills I suf-
fered everything from kidney troubles
for a year and a half. I had pain in
the back and head, and almost contin-
uous in the loins and felt weary all
the time. A few doses of Doan's Kid-
ney Pills brought great relief, and I
kept on taking them until in a short
time I was cured. I think Doan's Kid-
ney Pills are wonderful."
For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a
box. Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
Always In the Way.
Recently a country doctor in the
north of Ireland, a bachelor, who was
locally noted for his brusqueness and
irascibility, was drfving along a nor
row lane, or "boreen," when his pas-
sage was effectually barred by an old
woman, who was returning from the
bog leading an ass whoso panniers
were filled with peats. The woman
led the ass to the side of the lane as
quickly as she could, but not quickly
enough to please the short-tempered
doctor. "Faugh!" he exclaimed, with
a snort of disgust. "Women and asses
are always in the way." "1 m glad ye
have tho mannerB to put yourself
last." Baid the old woman, calmly.
The doctor drove on without anothes
word.

When I drank coffee I often hnd
sick headaches, nervousness and bil-
iousness much of the time, but when 1
went to visit a friend I got In the habit
of drinking Postum.
I gave up coffee entirely and the re.
suit has been that I have been entire-
ly relieved of all my stomach and ner-
vous trouble.
My mother was just the same way.
We all drink Postum now, and with-
out coffee in the house for 2 years, we
are all well.
A neighbor of mine, a great coffee
drinker, was troubled with pains in
her side for years and was an invalid.
She was not able to do her work and
could not even mend clothes or do any-
thing at all where she would have to
bend forward. If she tried to do a
little hard work she would get such
pains that she would have to lie down
for the rest of the day.
At last I persuaded her to stop
drinking coffee and try Postum Food
Coffee and ifho did so and has used
Postum ever since; the result has been
that she can now do her work, can
sit for a whole day and mend and can
sew on the machine and she never
feels the least bit of pain in her side,
'n fact, she has got well and It shows
coffee was the cause of the whole trou-
ble.

other neighbors who have been cured
by quitting coffee and using Postum
In Its place." "There's a Reason."

smoked while he waited for the cof-
fee and pondered the situation.
All winter ho had sought an Intro-
duction to the girl who was his one
fellow passenger in the parlor car. He
knew that her name was Jessie Ful-
ton and that she lived down south. Be-
yond that his information did not go.
A dozen times he had run acrosa her
In the city, but the opportunity for an
introduction never came.
Here they were, joint occupants of
the parlor car and blocked by a
wreck that promised to hold them for
hours, if not all night. The freight
had gone up in the forenoon and had
broken through a rickety bridge. A
temporary bridge must be built be-
fore they could go ahead.
The porter came across the road
and smiled as he saw Lambert. "Ahm
lookin' for some sandwiches for ma
lady," he announced. "She done
offer me a dollah."
"I'll give you the dollar," he prom-
ised."You go back and rig up a table
I'll be right there."
The girl looked expectantly as Lam-
bert entered bearing aloft his plun-
der. "With your permission," ho
said, with a bow, "we will have sup-
per such as it is."
"The porter promised to get me
something," she protested.
"I have cornered the food supply of
the town," he explained. "If my com-
pany is "
"Not at all." she hastened to pro-
test. "It will be more pleasant this
way."
Lambert laid out the food together
with the knives and forks he had bor-
rowed, and opened his various cans.
Hunger gave them appetites even for
the coarse fare and the girl was soon
chatting merrily.
"Your face Beems familiar," she
said, the faint color mounting to her
cheekB.
"I worked in the building where you
used to call on your lawyer," he ex-
plained readily. "I have seen you in
the elevator more than once."
"It seems almost like knowing you
to meet down here in Georgia," she
said, smilingly.
Lambert beamed. To think that,
after seeking her all winter, he
should find her down here and under
circumstances that made for success
seemed too good to be true.
He sent the porter back with the
dishes and settled down to entertain
the girl. It was almost midnight be-
fore they realized how time had been
flying, and he arranged with the por-
ter for a makeshift bed for Miss Ful-
ton in the drawing room, while he oc
cupled the smoking room.
They were Just drawing into the ter-
minal station when they met in the
morning.
"It seems that we are out of trouble
at last," he said in greeting. " The
track was cleared about five o clock.
"1 am rather sorry for it," she con-
fessed. "It has spoiled our picnic."
Lambert's face glowed.
"I am glad you onjoyed it," he said
earnestly. "Perhaps we may arrange
another picnic here before I go back
north. I have a title to look up. It
may take a week. I rather think It
will."
I shall not wait for the picnic," she
insisted. "1 am going to have you at

Ail In Cold Storage.
An Oregon attorney, representing
a cltent whose title to a certain cold
storage plant was under fire, closed
an able argument before tho Oregon
supreme court recently with the fol-
lowing bit of pathos: "Your honor,
there is more resting upon your de-
cision than this cold Btorago plant: a
human life 1b at stake. My client's
life's efforts are in this cold storage;
his life's blood is in this cold storage;
his body and soul are wrapped up

Watching the Knife Play.
"There Ib an awful fascination
about seeing people eat with their

a week on tho farm for this health,
with a retrospective look In his eyes.
"A knifo is such an unexpected In-
strument. You never know just where
It Is going to strike. You can't keep
your eyes off. You are afraid to look

"Alas," he answered, "tho Bea is tha

"But you married again," we mur-
mured.

know that all laBt winter I tried to

"Did you notice me, too?" she asked
quickly.
