We are in a campaign that means aud iu a remarkably snort time he
■ore to the people of Oklahoma , was informed that they could get
tan all the campaigns of the past, along without him, and the corn-
ad it is a time when every one I pauies were permitted to go on in
hould study the issues and in so the same old way. Is it not time
[doing should lay aide party preju- that the people got along without
[dice. such rule?
The best citizens have In-en jt jiat) beeu Haid that the railroads
[placed on the Democratic ticket, by
primary, It is the first time that
[the whole jieoplo of one party have
[had a voice as to who the standard
[bearers of their party should be, by
I nominating by direct primary vote.
The issue is the constitution, and
the republicans ot this county have
I met in convention aud passed reso-
lutions declaring against it.
For many long years the Repub-
I lican party has declared locally aud
(nationally for statehood for Oklaho
Ima, and the Democratic parly said
(that they were not acting in good
[faith, and their aetion at (the pres
[eut time certaiulv bears out the SC-
| cuzation.
They have said the constitution
was hard on the railroads. Under
the Republican administration of
the past, the railroads have been
permitted to charge unreasonable
rates and you have had to foot the
bills
A short time ago the Attorney
General, who is an appointee, had
in his office, as assistant, a young
man who felt the interest of the
«#V,mou people more keenly than
tfat of the railroads, and made an

Congress gave to Oklahoma,
Fort Supply, to he used for a state
insane asylum ' At that time there
was au uuexpired contract with a
company at Norman, Okla,, to care
for the insane aud the courts ruled
that the company could collect pay-
ment on the balance of the contract
in case the patients were moved be-
fore its expiration.
That has been nearly two years
ago and nothing has been done.
Has .Mr. Frantz kept good faith or
has he showu any intention of so
doing?
The Republicans have Dominated
for congress a man who was dis- men for the various ofliices of th.
charged from the governor’s office
because he would not perform his
duties. Do you feel as though you
would like to have a uiau of that
kind represent you iu congress?
Wa have iu the constitution one
of the grandest documents ever
presented to the people of any state.
A constitution which recognizes the
rights of the farmer aud day laboier
as well as of the largest corpora-
tion. It provides for thg intiative
aud referendum, which gives the
people the right to reject such laws
as the state lesislature may enact, if
they prove unsatisfactory. It
makes it possible to compel parents
or guardisus to send children of
school age to school, and that white
children will not be compelled to
get their education bv sitting or
reciting with colored children. If
it gave us nothing hut the hill of

of Oklahoma more than the Repub- , 1 ____, t , ^ n( ,.fo j

years. It declares for a speedy
trial, by jury, of all criminal cases,
which is a great improvement over
our present court system, iu which
| men have laid in filthy jails from 18
I to 24 mouths, and in some cases
I longer. It provides that ‘J men of
| a jury may fiud a verdict iu civil
I cases.
The constitution provides for
making the holding of a primary
election, manditory, thus compel-

their candidates by primary, which
