men, about five hundred strong
worked for four days fixing the
roads. Business houses closed

mobile club led in the work and
contributed several hundred dol-

portant article of our constitu-
tion, which at the time of its
completion, was the most jeered
at, yet which stands forth today
as the greatest and the ^ best of
any state in the i\nton,’*
Alt over the state influential
men are fallingia fine for “Boh”
Williams for governor. His
Strength ia not in one section of
the country of which he happens
to he a resident, Men of affair^,
who realize that Oklahoma will
need an executive who will be
honest, economical, and absolu-
tely fearless of man* clique, ring,
faction or corporation* have de-
viled that Williams is the man
to, lead us. The democratic
members oi t»he Oklahoma Press
association’ are for him, the clergy
& for nim. He will be elected
the next governor, and here are
the reasons why he wUl be elect-
ed*'
Because an businea s man he
has made a success and: done it
honorably'.. '-3
Because as, chief justice and
jndge of the supreme court, his
opinions stand forth, as marvels
of simplicity,, justice and: pains-
taking interpretations of the law,
that commands the respect not
only of the people of Oklahoma,
but of the entire nation. Be-
cause he sprang from the toiling
masses, and his. sympathies abide
with the common people,
Because Oklahoma needs ah
executive that will command the
respect of all the people, and be-
cause he is. a shining example of
personal, economy* honesty and
thrift, and in, therefore qualified
to, put those virtues in force in
Oklahoma’s public affairs,

Oklahoma is setting the place
3or her sister stateain the matter
of road, building,, and each year
is making greater strides in this
direction.. The last year has e-

building of good.roads.. Perhaps
