In judging a bank's strength there are two im
portant things to be considered:
FIRST The Paid-Up Capital Stock. This
represents the amount of capital invested in the
business by the stockholders. The liability of
the stockholders of this bank is $100000.
SECOND-SURPLUS. Surplus is profits
from the business set aside as additional work-
ing capital. It adds just so much to the bank's
strength and is additional security to depositors.
This bank's surplus is $60000.00.
This bank ranks seventh place in the State
of Oklahoma in capital and surplus out of one
thousand and one banks.

Capital $200000.00

CHANDLER TRIBUNE.
November "0
There has been much talk over the
giiliernatcrial titration during the
last two months and the Tribune ban
spent much time studying the situa-
tion and the availability of different
Candidates.
We have bad a magnificent example
of what a real leader can do in the
recent work of President Wilson an 1
above evi r thing else commend the
diplomacy be has used in dealing with
a co-ordinate braiv of government
the Congress.
Vi lii-n we reflect on the state de-
partmental differences that were tried
in the courts and In newspapers of
Oklahoma and when e retail the
strngzle between the Governor and
the Legislature we cannot but hops
that some state leader possessing the
tame qualifications as President Wil-
ton can be raised up and lead us out
of the factionalism into whhh Okla-
homa politics has drifted. It is a con-
dition connected with every party. It
Is 1 egrettable. It is unnecessary. It
Is foolish expensive and defeats all
attempts of economy.
There is no nPed to look for such
a man among the new and untried.
It would be the height of Tolly to put
forth as the standard bearer ." de-
mocracy some man whose soli? qual-
ification is that he possess no enem-
ies. Wilson hud his Smith but he had
T1IK PKOP1.K.
A lactionalist would be as unhappy
choice as the untried man. We can
nut r fiord to nominate un Adminis-
tration mun or an Anti administra
turn man nor any man for governor
who has been a partisan iu any of the
departmental fights.
The nine department of our state
government that has been almost en
tirely immune from criticism is ire'
Supremo Court. It carries the con-
lidi nee of Oklahoma and the respect
of the whole world. In the tiriuament
if lciul jurisprudence it is a star of
tlie first magnitude.
Less Expense and Lower Taxes
Much is being snld now on the sub-
ject of lower taxes. The burden bourne
by the taxpayer is such that the ques-
tion is a vital one with him ami he
lends a willing ear to anything bear-
ing upon the subject and a golden op-
portunity is offered the demagogue
who wanting votes readily promises
lower taxes without any definite
knowledge of how such result can pos-
sibly be accompli! -died.
Friends of Judge R. L. Williams
point out that such desired reforms
requite thu co-operation of the Cov-
enter and Legislature and that the
Governor must be big enough to com-
mand the confidence and respect of
t lie Legislature in order that there
mav he team work before there can
be perfect harmony and co-operation.
When such confidence is established
the battle is only begun. The Gov-
ernor must be a man thoroughly con-
versant with the machinery of the
state.
No mnn can more thoroughly under-
s'and a machine than the man who
built it and as . member of the Con-
stitutional Convention Judge II. L.
Williams was one of the chief build-
ers of the Constitutional law of Okla-
homa and thoroughly understands its
construction.
As a judge on the Supreme Court
ever since statehood and as first Chief
Justice of that august court he has
been brought face to face with every
problem of revenue and taxation.
His experience enables hlin to dis-
cern the weak places in the machinery
and his training has given him the
knowledge to remedy such defects.
Ito.-iilcs hi3 life's nork shows that he
is a man of great initiative and with
both knowledge .and initiative if he
Is placed at the head of the govern-
ment of the State the specific ways
and nvans of reducing expenditures
snd thereby reducing taxes would be
brought about. In addition he will

to Lead Us
Hon. Robt. L. Williams was the first
Chief Justice of this court and has
been a member eiuce its organization.
His decisions have carried a weight
that has gone far toward giving tha
Supreme Court the reputation it en-
joy. Before be became a Justice of the.
Supreme Court however Judge Wil-
liams had proven to the world that he
was a constructive statesman of the
highest ability. J lis work in the Cou
stitutional Convention stauds as an
everlasting monument to his ability in
this line. He is the author of many
of the most important sections of our
constitution and had he not performed
seven years of the most valuable ser-
vice on the Supreme Bench he would
have still have furnished sufficient
proof i'uat n is big enough to be gov-
ernor of Oklahoma.
In endorsing his candidacy we dp
not in any manner reflect on any other
candidate. We enjoy the personal
friendship of every other man that
has announced for that position.
As we see it the real work to be
performed is to first harmonize the
warring factions and after that has
been accomplished in launch out on a
campaign of economy that will wipe
from our state government every debt
Incident to the stale "Selling up
Housekeeping" and at the same time
lower current levies.
We have talked with Judge Wil-
liams about these problems and be-
lieve that his theories and plans for
accomplishing these results are as
sound as his work in the Constitu
tional Convention and on the Supreme
Bench. We believe that he is the
man to bring order out of chaos. Har-
mony out or discord and the greatest
decree of economy consistent with
good government. Strong of mind
and intense iu purpose we helieve
that if elected to the Governorship of
this state .Indue Williams will be to
Oklahoma what Woodrow Wilson has
been to these I'nlted States.
! construction of hundreds of miles of
(good roads over the State by means
I of convict labor.
I The friends of Judge Williams deny
emor is all that Is required to lower
taxes. They insist that the Governor
should not only be a good business
man but also lie should be a judge
of men and know how to do team work
with men and that In addition he
Bhould be well informed as to the laws
of the Slate. In Judne Williams we
have a successful lawyer a success-
ful business man and a successful
man in dealing with men in a politi-
cal and governmental way. If he Is
Governor his experience on the Su
prenie Court and as n active practic-
ing lawyer w ill give him the benefit of
knowledge that the state would have
to spend thousands of dollais to get
in hiring counsel to aid in carrying on
the business of the State. In addi-
tion to that he will carry into the Gov-
ernor's ollice the experience of a
business man by having been a suc-
cessful town builder a successful
fanner and a successful banker and
all of these things were done by him
within a period of less than fifteen
years. Then be laid aside these mat-
ters and gave his efforts to the public
service in order to help build a state.
He has helped build the Constitution.
He has helped build the decisions of
the Courts of this state which rark on
a par with the decisions of any nurt
of any other state and now he offers
his services in building of the State
in an administrative way with a view
of bringing about order and harmony
and reducing the expenditures of gov-
ernment. In the Constitutional Convention
which was a legislative body he was
successful. On the Supreme Court he
has been a success. In the private
walks of life as a practicing lawyer he
has been a success. As a businens
man he lias been a success. Is this
not a sufficient assurance that he
would be a pre-eminent success at the
head of the executive department of
the State?
CLINTON NEWS.
Judge Williams as one of the flrt
Chief Justices of Oklahoma- and as
member of the Constitutional Conven-
tion has played an Important part ia
the formation of Oklahoma history.
In writing the opinion of the court on
constitutional questions the lion's
share has fallen to Williams. It was
lie who first held the corporation com-
mission had a right to force railroads
to build depots according to specifica-
tions; that Oklahoma s Hank Guar-
anty law was not in violation of the
federal constitution and many other
questions dealing with a constitution
bristling with innovations were placed
before him and to his credit it must
be said that the supreme court of the
nation seldom revrsed him.
And now a lot of folks are saying
that he will be tho next governor of
Oklahoma that In every way he ia
eminently fitted for the position hs
seeks.
