£ Lc S Si: be governed by the ^
w. c. K.A1&S that his decision would be. wholly im-
personal, but was ^specially desirous
. 0f selecting a man upon whom all
and State Tlcket ,could unite and who was a thoroughly
able and worthy man.
Mr. Calvert is one of the most cap-
able and worthy young men of the
state. lie did not seek the place but
accepted it after repeated solicitation
by our people. He is thirty-four years
of age and has lived in Oklahoma since
early childhood. He was reared and
educated in the publjjc schools of Lo-
gan county, Oklahoma, and has lived
in Nowata county for the past ten
years, is married and has two child-
ren. He was twice elected County
Judge of Nowata county on the demo-
cratic ticket and was U. S. Probate
Attorney for the Rogers-Nowata coun-
1 ties district for a period of time, is
active in civic and public A^ork, took a
leading part in war activities and
work during the war and was chair-
man for the Woodrow Wilson founda-
tion during the campaign.
The democratic party as well as the
the whole people of the district are
fortunate in having Judge Calvert of-
; t'er himself for the office of Stafe
Senator.

paying no commission to any person.
ilcpartment has $19,000,000 loaned
< 9,000 farmers of the state. Shaw
said in his statement challenging
Fields' assertions:
"According to the press, John Fields
persistently makes the charge against
i.0 School Land department that a
loan cannot be obtained except
through some one to whom a commis-
sion must be paid. I do not have the
pleasure of knowing all of the borrow-
ers from the school funds, but do
know jnany of them personally, and do
not hesitate to say that I feel sure
they have not sworn falsely in order
to obtain this money. Before an ap-
plication /or a loan is considered, the
:ipplicatn must swear to the following
"I have not paid or contracted to
pay any fee or commission to any per_
'•on, firm, or corporation for procuring
this loan, and if the loan is made, I will
not pay any such fee or commission.'
"If the accusation of Mr. Fields is
true, then each person who has a loan
with this department has made a false
affidavit. It is easy to make accusa-
tions, but on behalf of the nine thous-
and citizens of this state, who have
loans with this department, ask that

"Granting that the accusation that
some politician has recveied a commi-

Have you met the men who travel
about the state proclaiming in the
smoker on trains, in the lobbies of ho-
tels and every place he can get a hear-
ing that he is an old-time democrat
and never voted for a republican in his
life, but this year he is going to vote
for John Fields?
The republican State Central Com-
mittee has employed scores of propa-
ganda spreaders of this type and is
paying them well to travel over Okla-
homa and spread the dope to deceive
voters into believing that disaffection
is rife in the democratic party. Usu
ally the bunk peddler says he is an
"old Texas democrat," an "old Ten.
nessee Democrat" or an "old Arkan
sas democrat," presumably on the
theory that these are supposed to be
the most consistent democrats there
are. The chances are the declaimer
never voted for a democrat in his life
and hails originally from Pennsylva-
nia, Iowa, Kansas or some other rock-
ribbed republican bailiwick.
