OKLAHOMA—OPPORTUNITY.
anticipated. It is not strange, either
that some of these when they get
"back home" among their "folks,
talk disparagingly of the state in
which they have failed to make good.
It is strange, however, that an
intelligent press Beizes so eagerly
upon such stories, and displays them
In a manner that appears ludicrous
to those Informed as to the condi-
tion they describe.
The following is a typical slander
o( Oklahoma from the Flint (Michi-
gan) Journal:
"That many of the 1,660,000 In-
habitants of Oklahoma are only a
short way from actual starvation
because of the failure of the crops
in the state for several seasons in
succession is the startling statement
made by John Partridge, who has
returned to his old home In Flint
township after spending five years
hi the southwest.
One has to be right In the
stricken state to fully realize the
predicament of the people,' says Mr.
Partridge. 'An idea of the poverty-
stricken condition of some of the
people can be realized, however,
when It is known that many farmers
did not have money with which to
buy seed to plant this year and
have been forced to ai;k federal aid.
'The adverse weather conditions
of the laBt few seasons have made
the crops almost total failures. Last
year there were no crops that
amounted to anything except In a
few of the eastern counties of the
state, where they had a normal
growth of cotton. This year there
are prospects of a fair crop of
wheat, and this will help some, but
the general condition of the people
Is really desperate.
As a result of the poor crops,
land values have been greatly re-
duced In Oklahoma City. There any

a physician, who said he had prop-
erty which he had held at 12,000
and would be glad to cash in for
$400.
" 'The people are being taxed to
death down there, and many of the
assessors have over-valued the prop-
erty. These conditions and the poor
crops have placed the people on
the verge of financial ruin.'"
This article contains the worst
form of misrepresentation,—exagger-
ation. It has just enough truth in
it to hurt. The News-Herald can
only hope that the good people of
the state who have made a success
here, by their determination and en-
ergy, will as industriously circulate
the facts as others are circulating
misrepresentations. Oklahoma is to-
day as she has been for a decade—
the land of opportunity, where ev-
ery man stands upon his merits,
where lineage doeB not answer the
purpose of horse sense, nor family
connections win the favor of the
people; where industry and honesty
In any line of business will win out,
and where the man who labors faith-
fully secures the maximum reward
for his labors.
