with many party lines will not
be a barrier to voting for the
best man. They will hear, if
they listen, that men declare
that if tricksters manage to
secure nominations and the op-
position party puts up a gooc
man they will vote outside their
party. They do not look upon
the making of a constitution as
a party measure or one in
which a party could or slioulc
seek .an advantage. The people
are freely passing opinions on
various individuals who have
been suggested for this impor-
tant position and it is astoni-
shing with what freedom they
express objections and the reas-
ons on which objections are
based.
These things should make all
men consider well their applica-
tion for honor of being nomina-
ted for the important position
of delegate to the convention
which is to frame a code of fun-
damental laws. Candidates
should consider well their own
strength and weakness. A man
who has in a thousand ways
made himself unpopular does
his party an injustice when he
forces his candidacy. Such men
when honest, should seek some
other honest but more popular
candidate t i push.
The amount of discussion, the
freedom with which the citizens
pass criticisms, all show that
the masses are thoroughly in-
teiested and this insures the
nomination of good men. The
people make no mistakes when
they attend to this work them-
selves and at no time were the
people more in earnest than
right now. This is no time for
extremists nor will the people
choose the agent of special in-
interests to look after their in-
terests in the construction of a
constitution.”
Many a man now push-
ing himself forward for this ex-
alted place will wake up to find
his hopes shattered and his po-
litical prospects blighted for all
time to come, for the days of
the demigog or political trick-
ster is past. And Oklahoma,
wise with the experience of her
sister states, will arise in her
might, “bright as the sun, fair
as the moon, and terrible as an
army with banners,” and woe
betides that candidate that
when he is sifted his character
will not shine out like pure gold. _

a great celebration next Mon-
day in honor of Congressman
McGuire,
STATUS Of THE PURE FOOD BILL.
Just when it seemed almost a
foregone conclusion that an-
other session of Congress would
end without the enactment of a
general pure food law, the Pres-
ident took a hand in the mat-
ter and revived legislative in-
terest in the measure. In a
letter addressed to Speaker
Cannon the President noted
the great importance of the bill
and the demand existing at the
present time for protection a-
gainst adulterations and de-
leterious ingredients in prepar-
ed foods, drugs and liquors.
The Speaker, who had doggedly
refused to permit the bill to be
called up, at once announced
that he would arrange for a
report.
The bill was originally intro-
duced in the Senate, and was a
lairlv good measure as it pas-
sed that body. It was good
enough to raise the suspicion
that it was sent to the House
to be smothered. This s s fi-
