Almost complete returns from all |

r by a safe majority. Every read-
er of the Tribune knows how v.<
have stood oti the governor's ru'*
hroughout the primary campaign,
.iii'i foi ua, aa mil n« for u largi
najorti> ol our Democratic readein
Lee Cruce is bard to swallow. W.
had one choice for governed on*
inly and that was Hill Murray
Wo bad no second choice, and out
readers will therefor* very readily
understand why we have not fallen
head-over-heels In love with l.ee
Cruce, because he happens to be
the Democratic nominee. He nev-
er wus our choice for governor,
and hence we are not at this time
occupying a front seal In his band
wagon. We have always believed
that there were scores of men In
Oklahoma better iiualilled for gov-
ernor than l.ee Cruce and a can
ful and unbiased consideration ol
the achievements of many Oklaho-
ma men of public note, in com-
parison with the public record ot
bee Cruce will prove to any fair-
minded person their absolute «u
periorlty over the "tall sycamore
of the Wabash." Furthermore, tin
entire Haskell machine, the most
obnoxious power In the state, wn:
backing Cruce, and this, even if
not dishonest, was to say the least
unfair. The king of four-flushers,
(iov. Cbas. N. Haskell, while say-
ing very little, threw tbo whole
force of Ills machine behind Cruce,
double-crossing and defeating Hill
.Murray, the man who made Haskell
governor. These ure some of tlio
reasons we are not frantically wav-
ing a Cruce banner. Whether
Cruce Is better or worse than .loo
McNeill, the Republican nominee,
wo are not able to say. Joe s plat-
form Is "more business and less
politics;” Lee's platform is an
endorsement of everything Haskell
lias done, and doubtless, a willing-
ness to do everything Haskell wants
him to do. Cruce's platform nilglit
appropriately he condensed In the
following complete form:
"I'll go where you want me to
go. dear Charlie,
"I'll do what you want ws to do.”
Of course Cruce will be elected
In November, and the closing scene
of the Inaugural ceremony will be
Governor Cruce kissing lOx-Gxovern-
or llaskell good-bye, and a selected
choir render the anthem:
“Where he leads I’ll follow.
Follow Haskell all the way."
Lee Cruce's "Sunshine and Pros-
perity" phrase doesn’t sound right.
Poo much sunshine lias blighted lots
of prosperity hopes this summer,
lint then Lee says lots of tilings
that don’t sound right.
Hurrah for Lee Cruce and Joe
McNeal! Try that and see If it
doesn't leave a bad taste in the
mouth.
.loe McNeal and l.ee Cruce would
make ft pretty good team. It's a
pity we can't, elect both of them
at the same time.
We havo been asked liow we
like the ticket. For tho most part,
wo believe It Is one of the best
tickets the Democrats have evei
put Into the Hold—-we’re talkinj
about the county ticket- and with
an aggressive campaign tho Demo-
e
crata ought to lrtiid a big niuJorit>

Dick Morgan says with great

ailed to tell us that the sixth and

Majority did.

Owing to physical disability, he is

The boys returned home last Tues-

First Election Under “Grandfather”

Guthrie, Okla., Aug. 9.— Elec-
tion returns as to the guberna-

seventy-one counties having re-

21,595; Fields, 15,789; Jones,

seventy counties the vote on the

The first election held in the
state under the recently adopted
