FAMjAOIOUH REASONING
In a newspaper nt raillc.il tendencies d
'purely olass appeal wo read tho following com-
ment on a recant utterance of ISIhert H. Gary
' whoreln the steel magnate expressed re.pttgns.nes
"to the Idea of rearing nn arlstoarnay 6f special
privilege and wealth In the United States!
"Gary In a member of the special privilege
'' clnw. Neither he nor nny other man gets
i that way (wealthy) except by special prlv-
. Ilego whlah enables them to take for them-
" selvcn tho earnings of others."
Tho World cannot permit such a fallacious
and mischievous b-tntemnnt to pass without ro-
.. bukn. It Is nuch tnonslrouii tenRhliiK.i oa thla

stitute tholr very trroatert blaoalnR.
To aay that no man ovor Brow rloh eavo
througli upcclnl privilege and taking from othors
their rlghta Is to pronounco a lie of the mewt
heinous kind. Let us consider only Oklahoma
whloh developed within the life of most man
now active In lt affairs; and take for our
' standard of wealth tha nlmple standard of this
. agrarian state.
'. When tho great rush was on for homes In
the promised landa men camo from east and
wo.it and north and south; men nt all vocations
find all types and all characteristics. Thero was
a man who secured a homeitead aide by aide
With another. Kach was at tha bottom of the
eoonomlo ladder. Tho one knowing full woll
tho terms of his acquisition hunir on endured
hardships subsisted on a faro that tried the
sternest flbor of tha Individual charactnr. The
other gave way early. When want met him at
' his door when tha future seemed dark and too
.trying for his nhallow nature ho sought a pvlr-
' chaser of his doubtful tltlo because ho wanted
to return east to his wife's pooplo where ho
ylnlcht If with less Independence certainly with
' greater personal comfort ko out an oxlstance.
tio ho offered to trade to tho flmt man. He
would loasa his right and title to his homestead
for n. team of youns hornea with which to make
' the Journey baclt cast.
The first man with an abiding faith In the
ftitura of Oklahoma then In Its crudost form yot
more because of a disposition to help his neigh-
bor than to benefit hlmsalf accommodates that
neighbor by trading Tlmo passes. The dark-
est cloud has a allver lining. Vlrturo hn Its
cortnln roward. Tenacity and singleness of pur-
ffiose always win. The plains yield to tho woo-
ing of man. Cities spring up population fol-
town and those landu have Increased In value
many many ttmee. But the lnerea.-.'! In values
simply measures sacrifices and thrift inn do
many Umss over.
Nature smiles upon tho land. Crops are
grown In abundanco and preaontly the man who
Muck who was willing to sacrifice and toll and
bear burdens during tho preaoitt emerged Into
ntfluenco and independence. He become a stock-
holder In ths bank at tho county seat. His live
ntock which he has attended carefully has
grown Into profits of splendid proportion. Ho
is a substantial figure in his community. He Is
a member of the school board a trustee of his
church and in a few more years tho magic
wand of oil having touched his soil Into a flow
of gold he In rich and tho wealth he has thus
made possible In providing; employment not ony
for hundreds but his neighbor of the pioneer
days who has returned to Oklahoma to bocoms
a tenant upon the very lands ho once owned.
What are you going to do about this condition
of affaire. Mr. Itadlcal Agitator? Tou want
the man who wovo tho very soul of himself and
his wife and his children Into the process of
development to divide with you now. You want
tho kindly neighbor of yeoterday to build you
a home to give you subslatanoe and to do some-
thing for you that you have never done for your
telf.
There are those who have profited unJiwtJy
because at speolal privileges from government.
There Is a sentient public sentiment alive to the
injustice of this sort of thing. Hut when the re-
mark 1 made that "no man becomes wealthy
Have at the unjust expense of his fellows" that
Is a He and It Is a mot mischievous II".
Ten years from today there will be other
cases thousands of them precisely llko unto
the one wo havo followed through; beoause the
pioneer opportunities of this state afford od
nothing like the great opportunities for winning

out get under and dig if you would attain In

cither agitation or legislation although by

In re fatty Arbuckte returning to tho 
screen as published in Ths World today J
would like to see every paper in ths country
print editorials sir. using inn Impropriety of
sui'h a charni'ter being again set before tho
pleasure seeking public and especially be
fore the young who probably compose tho
majority attending tlm picture shows. Is
this not an insult in mir boasted civilisation
and a Not on the purity f our private llfo?
Are the growing children who will make
up the adult life of tho next generation to
be tnught that a man mnv live any kind of
an immoral life and after exposure bo
taken back Into the good graces of the iub
lie and wield such an influence as a screen
iiftnr wlclde"
In this a good example to set before tha
young? What If It had been Mtaa Fatty Ar-
buckle what would have boon ths attitude
of the genirnllsnlmo of the screen and the
screen magnaies7 Would she not have hen
east out snd branded as a harlot and not
to be touched?
As It Is a man Is he to be returned to the
folds of our social lite to rub against Inno-
cence and those who would like to live up-
rightly? His friends say a man should have
a chance to stage a come back. Would their
verdict be the same If the subject wsre
Miss Fatty? w are already In ths grip of
big business and millions. Will we con-
done It or attempt to break that Influence?
We can easily surmise whlrh It will he
when the censor Is pulling down $160000
per year t nri we ran Judge what It would
bo If the verdict was left to the common
people
Much riald hy our correspondent Is Incontro
vertible Hut there are n few points overlooked.
While ths position of The World on tho Ar-
burVI rase l well known the fnct remains that
Arbuckle stands legally' oxhonerated. There-
fore ho has a right to offer his wares o tho
public and it Is a serious question whether or
not any authority In moviednm has nny legal
right to prevont him froth doing so. No on
It under compulsion lo attend hln shows.
The "verdict Is left lo the common pooplo."
Arbuckle accorded the rlnht to ply hln trndo nnd
Vrhunklo finding It proWtable to do ho Is dls.
tlnetly two separata propositions. Hays allow-
ing the comedian to mako pictures Is but one
phase of the matter. Inhibitors booking those
pictures Is another. And tho reaction of the
common people rsforred to by our correspon
dent Is still another.
The writer will not patronlzo a house show
ing tho Arbuckle pictures. Uut ho will mako no
effort to punish those who do patronize nn Ar-
buckle show nor tho houso exhibiting them
beyond absenting hlmuolf. This hocnuso Arbucklo
In proven to be much less than a gentleman In
tho first place a sort of end in tho defanwe ho
offcod In ths second place.
Now It the "common people" gonerally tako
such a view of tho matter exhibitor will not
offer the Arbuckle pictures and tho action of
Mr. Hays will amount to nothing whntovor. nut
It tho Arbucklo pictures do prove ns popular as
over tho last word will have been said concern
ing this case Just nn tha acceptance of a book
by tho public In tho fnco of tho condemnation
of tho rovlowors provoa beyond cuet!on that
the book is a good book. Wntor can never rise
above Its source.
And beyond doubt thero are a good many poo.
plo who lose sight completely of the personality
of an actor In tho productions ho offers. To
theso Arbucklo a aalut or Arbuoklo a devil Is
ono and the same thing.
It Isn't New Years day yet but It Is a good
tlmo to bo thinking about what wo shall do to
mako the new year a constructive succor. Why
not highly resolve to mako Tulsa the best
lighted city in tho state then to mako lt streets
the cleanest which means that the wnsto papor
nuisance must be abated. No Mils no wasto

THE SOWER
I watched him trudging through the flold
Preparing for his harvest yield
A man of strength and vigor
Hut untutored and unclean:
The proud would scorn the garb he wore
And turn him coldly from the door.
The dainty In his prwence
Would have shuddered to be in.
And as I watched I thought of Him
Uough-handod and of visage grim
The sower ankle deep In earth.
Distributing his seed:
Yft those who looked at hint in scorn
And only saw his garment torn
Some day upon his snow-white wheat '
In luxury would feed.
Out of tho common comes the great.
Beyond the tusk the Joys await;
Kough be the hand which mows the seed.
Hut white and soft the bread.
Xrom them ths haughty may despise
The splendors of the world arhw.
The cradle in a tenement
May be a ruler's bed.
Turn not away from any man
Who rvts the Maker's mighty plan.
The sower does not walk In prldo
Or costly garments wear.
And from the mire which marked the ixist
A gwilus may urine at last
The mother In the tenement
A o.i  Hi I1 may bt-ar.

er things I don't mean social equality. But I
do mean greater recognition In our civil legal
and commercial Institutions. In other words he
simply demands thnt ho be given a man's
chance. It seems to me that the employment of
a constructive policy towards tho negro would
be a far bettor policy to follow. Instead of the
policy of destruction terrorism and hatred that
has been and Is now being employed. So far of
mu itiiiuuuciui party is concerned l will sav
that It Is hot a question of politics or principles
but a question of Justice nnd tnlr treatment thai
