a great mffting closes today.
One of the :nopt successful revital* e\<r held any-
where will clove totlwy in Tulsa. Its re*ults will be far
reaching and of lasting benefit to Tulsa.
Dr. Lyon aud Mh corps t-f assistants make up :i
wonderfully strong and winning combination. Their
work Will not soon bo forgotten In Tulsa.
The basis of it has been an appeal to reason and to
the highept anil best in those who have listened Dr.
I.jren is one of the most profound thinkers and the most
logics! speaker that the people of Tulsa have had the
irood fortune to hear in many a day.
It is certainly to be hoped that the contributions
made today to Dr. Lyon will be liberal Money can not
measure the benefits to the city as a whole nor to the
many Individuals who have declared for a better life.
The people of Tulsa are prosperous. Dr. Lyon and
hi* party should lake away with them an offering in
proportion to the prosperity of the city anil the earnest-
ness and effectiveness of the work accomplished here.
If this If done the ottering today will be n record-breaker.
The Democrat wlehes Dr. Lyon and his party the
abundan' success they so richly deserve in their work
in the future wherever they may go.
There will always be a warm place in the hearts of
Tulea people for this little band ot devoted workers,
whose lives are consecrated to a noble cause and are
iieUig given earnestly and loyally to it.
The importance to this auction of the atate and espe
rtally of Tulsa of having In this important efflce a man
a Tutsan and a man intereWed in Ibe oil business and
who knows il« needs and interests can not lie overesti-
mated.
Tne Democrat is pleased to '><• able to piewnt siii h
a man to the voters: of Oklahoma in llie person of C.eor^e
D. Key. We quote with unqualified tmli rsem 'iit the |
fallowing taken from an exchange
"Hon Cetrfce D. Ke> of Tulia, hat mail*- his an-
nouncemen' a* a candidate for attorne> general of tlvc
state of Oklahoma Mr Key will be remembered as the
gentleman who ran Attorney fie 71 era I West such a close
race four years ago, when West ifas a candidate tor the
M-ionil term That campaign was (ondui-ted by Mr. Key
in such a lair and gentlemanly manner that he made
I many enthusiastic and lasting friend* throughout the
' nate all of whom will most surely rally to his support
■ in the present contest. He Is joung, capable, honest and
I energetic, well \ersed in his profession and should he be
1 to fortunate as to receive the nominatiou which he
. covets, the legal department of this commonwealth will
I he in the hands nd under the guidance of a safe, sane,
I and reliable attorney general. He is a native of the state
{ ol Tennessee and after finishing his studies and gradu-
ating from the Southwestern Baptist University of Jack-
son, Tennessee, he experienced service In the
Spanish-American war. When Southwestern Ok-
lahoma was opened for settlement in IW'1 Mr. Key took
iiis abode in the cltj of Lawton lor the purpose of prac-
ticing his profession, where he remained until more than
a year ago, when he removed to the city of Tulsa, which
is his nome at present. It would not be possible lor us
to write in a more glowing manner of Mr. Key than he
actually deserves. His democracy, in staunchness, in
equal to that of Speaker Champ t'lark. He haa always,
in every political contest, given of his time and means
in the most liberal way to the support of the democratic
party aud Its principles. If the democrats will nominate,
and we are sure he will be elected in November, our
slate will ha\e an attorney general whose spinal column
will always be ir. Joint, and at no time susceptible of
being twisted one way or another to suit the big inter-
ests or any other element In the commercial avenues of
our country."
That fieorge Kej; will be the next attorney general
ot Oklahoma there >s little doubt and that the people of
Tulsa will be proud of him and the work he will do is
more certain.

who will raise the money
Hire are the names of the finance committee for
the democratic cily campaign. I!. N. Wright. M. A Hat"
rison, Oscar Upward, J. S. (loppings. Tom White, A. E.
Bradshaw, L. D. Mnrr( L. W. Ilaxter. Henry Greis, Fred
Dunn, T. O. f'rimmlns, Al Brown, l.e Clinton. M. A Hat-
ton, a. Baker, W. W. Stucxey, Kd Crosaland, Lee Kilns-
man.
Every bank In the city is represented. The charac-
ter of th" men «ill settle in the minds of every thought-
ful person the sources from which the campaign fund
will be drawn and how it will be expended
Almost without exception the business men of the
City are for the election of the democratic ticket because
Ihey know, as do the jnember* of tills finance committee
that this ticket and the democratic party stands for the
best possible in the administration of city affairs for a
*afe, sane, clean, capable administration of the city's af-
fairs.
They know as doefc every one else who is informed
that financially anil otherwise Tulsa is in the best con-
dition in the management of Its city's affairs as well as
in all other ways, of any city In Oklahoma.
They know that the democratic party represents the
Tvest to be found in Tulsa's affairs and that Its good name
and reputation Is at stake and that the aflairs of the
city are safest in Its Keeping.
This finance committee will not raise a large fund
«nd It will none of it come from questionable sources.
Money will be spent only for strictly legitimate pur-
jKjses, for getting those not registered and entitled to
vote registered, for getting voters to the polls and such
Ihings as nre agreed by all parties are fair and proper.
■When men who are notorious for having made and
orokeii political promises as Walker, Oliphant. Foe, Ma-
gee. Wilson. Biddlson, Sanderson and in fact, practically
all of the leaders of the independent movement have,
fill the columns of their newspaper wiih the violent slan-
ders of Tulsa and promises of what they would do if let
to the pie counter, it is only neccssary for patriotitc citi-
zens of Tulsa to look over this list of men making tip
this finance committee and of the men prominent In the
management of the democratic campaign as well as the
candidates to decide that their support will go to the
democratic ticket on election day.
There is no doubt nt nil of the final election of the
democratic ticket. The thlnp to do Is to put it all over
on the first election.
A second election wIM be a imeless annoyance and
expense. Better get along without it. If everyone who
believes this will register and vote on April 7, that elec-
tion will settle It and Tulsa will settle down ugaln to its
usual busy w j anil the slanders now being peddled
about will be heard no more for i> couple of years, or un-
III a new crop of political aspirants start upon another
campaign to place themselves at the pie counter.

Wonder why people keep on coming to this town ami
building homes? t'nrl Magee says this is a bad town,
and he is alleged to know all about sin.
An Moka attorney, writing 10 a republican news-
paper at Oklahoma City, expresses astonishment like
a young man when he declares it strange that demo
cratlc newspapers, advocating their particular men
for position in this slate, talk of the men as such and
not of the broad principles of government which arc
ol vital importance
The gentlemen needs no one to tell him that the
deinorracy of this state will write a platform and tha
whoso Is made the candidate for high party honors must
subscribe thereto or not be a candidate. It does not re
quire a philosopher to forecast the majority of that com
iiig democratic platform. Anyone conversant with the
democratic platform as enunciated at Baltimore in 191
will have a speaking acquaintance with the platform of
our party will have in this good year of our Lord.
Just now a number of democrats are asking the peo
pie of that party faith to make them their choice for
high position. It is taken for granted that the majority
ol those aspiring are actual democrats, men who are of
the opinion that democratic plans and policies of gov
ernnent nre correct and that Oklahoma musi be so gov
erned, Such Is taken for granted. Of course the gen
tleman from Atoka went to a strange bureau for infor
ination- a republican newspaper which boasts that
heads the doleful mourners in our state, but The Demo
crat takes it that the questioner was in good faith. An>
how we hope lie was He can wise up to the democratic
way by reading the hlBtory of his party, it will do hin
good, too, for v lioso gets his tliinktank stored full of
good old democratic history generally becomes a shout
ing patriot, al! the bile of mugwunipery and mongrel
politics gets out of his system, and lie becomes pre
pare for a constructive form of government and him
self a producer of good results.
The democratic party, when the due season arrives,
will promulgate a platform, and it will not be a mourn
er's bencli declaration, either. It will recite the '.iistory
of govi rnmeiit in our state anil nation and reaffirm our
allegiance ti the teachings of Thomas Jefferson. That
platform will not be pleasing to those who want to be
wai! end nurse a grouch, but It will appeal to the great
constructive citizenship in the state of Oklahoma and It
will not fail of Its purpos. What is more, a loval and
patriotic state democracy will chose a ticket which will
carry out those policies.
No one should ever get excited about the doleful
songsters and their fears of something going wrong
That crew Is ever on the sorrow pedal and singing with
the sob tremolo stop out to add to their meanings. The
people at large, however, continue prosperous and hap-
py and they have no time which they will waste trying
to soothe the feelings of those who do not wish to be
soothed.
General Kelley's army of unemployed grew so dta
gusted at the proffer of work they will not inarch from
California to Washington. W hen a loafer can't pose ns
an unemployed without being thrown in contact with
work wherever lu goes, it makes inarching lor a job too
disgustinv to be long followed
The eastern newspapers in a concentrated attack on
Seen tary Brvan is not a new thing. Since 18!i$ ccr

In middle ami late life, ami mostly In

The pain in the region of the heart,
