Public Health in 1911>.'
During the year 191(1 the people
of Oklahoma in every city, every vil-
lage, at every cross-road and in every
rural community will be urged to
give matters of public health the
fullest possible donsideration. Not
only better health, but good health

means larger incomes in dollars and
cents, as well as greater happiness.

It has been charged that the state
administration and the leaders of the
Democratic party were contemplat-
ing the calling of a special session of
the legislature for the sole purpose cf
“playing politics” and in making this
charge the opponents of the Demo-
cratic party have proceeedd to “play
politics” bu publishing in such news-
papers as they can eontroll all kinds i
ol violent presumptions as to what
the legislature will do and what the
state administration will endeavor to i
have it do.
If a special session is called—and 1
while such an event is probable it is i
not yet definitely settled that it will |
be called—it is possible that the j
Democratic majority in that body will i
admit the soft impeachment and j
really “play politics.” Not the low- j
browed, mercenary, machine politics
which our Republican friends always!
have in mind when they discuss the '■
subject of politics, but the clean, pro-1
gressive and intelligent brand of poli- [
tics which is comprehended in a de-
sire to so amend existing laws as to
stop litigation and make the operation
of government more economical and
practicable, and have it furnish better
service to the people. To secure this
result, the legislature, if it is called in
session, will probably adopt its old j
organization and proceed at once to j
the consideration of the subjects!
outlined by the Governor as worthy j
of attention at this time. Such new
matters as he shall see fit to propose
will be vigorously discussed and acted
upon by the majority of that body,!
together with the amendments to ex-
isting laws, chich experience in their
enforcement has marked as necessary.
This work will he completed within
thirty days, and the body will be
ready to adjourn. That is the kind

The pig is a valuable animal,
it is less valuable than a boy or a

hogs are regarded as pets, and in
many an Oklahoma town the pet pig

The people of Oklahoma are intelli-
gent and well read. Therequests for
these amendments to present laws are
coming from the people, and the de-
mand for some new legislation is
made from the same source, and if a
special session is called, it will he be-
cause the Chief Executive of this state
and the members of his party in the
legislature have the courage to fact
their responsibility and the confidence
in each other to know that the time
of the legislature and the money of
(he taxpayers will not be wasted by
the legislative body, and that no crazy
or wild-cat measures wll be either
proposed or have any chance for pas-
sage at such a session. The party
that lays that kind of politics need
not fear adverse criticism from the
great mass of the people and in case
cf a special session, the two minority
parties in Oklahoma, whose members
are now so loudly denouncing a ses-
sion and whining about the Demo-
crats “playing politics” will be found
using every effort to delay action on
important matters and prolong the
session in the hope that they may
thereby gain some partisan advantage.
The Democrats cannot benefit by
playing “cheap” politics. They are
responsible for government in Okla-
homa and have proved their compet-
ence to conduct it, hut if the passage
cf beneficial measures the needed cor-
rection and amendment of some pres-
ent statutes in a brief and business-
like session should turn out to be
“good” politics, we see no reason why
the Democrats should hesitate to hold
a special session or he seriously con-
cerned about the charge that it will
“play politics.”
