Lx Gov., Folk’s Presidential
boom seems to bt taking on some
momentum but the real tight
will be between Champ. Clark
and Woodroe Wilson.
I hk political party which will
do more for those who “Feed
and clothe the nation,” than any
other, deserves to win over all
other parties.
You will never get rid of
grafters until you kill the tosen-
tive to graft. Kill the insentive
to graft and brainy men will turn
their attention toward lines
which will uplift hamanity.
Several parties are arranging
to knock out high taxes, while
others are going to pay theirs
then howl” about it, but they
certainly have one comming.

Whenever the people find that,
government controle won’t work
they will adopt government own-
ership as a means of relief from
i ie unrullv trusts.
Everybody you meet will
readily admit that taxes are too
ligh. but when you ask them to
place their finger on the parties
who are to blame, many of them
will try to “squirm” out of it.
“Money has its limit. It wil
not buy brains, common sense,
virtue character, peace of con
science, forgiviness of sine, love,
freedom from death or eternal
life. In other words the persuit
of money means that all the best
things in life is left unattained
while searching after a very
doubtful good.

Oklahoma has taken a verv ad-
vanced position, one which may
,bne “adf.lhe Precedent for action
in the other states, that will be
beneficial to the whole people.
Having complaint against the
price of cotton which it was
claimed was fixed by agreement
the state corporation board has
declared the Geary plant a pub-
^ld has undei'taken

tOn. If the state can fix prices
for gmmng cotton, if it can de-
clare that a cotton gin is a public
utility it can also declare
railroads and all sort of manu-
factures public utilities and fix
the price that shall be paid for
service from them. This will
not be collective ownership, but
the same principal that will se-
cure control of these things may

ut before the nation can control
industry, it must abolish the
supreme court.

would have to work or starve
Reason they do not have to work
today is because the workers
foolishly vote a system of private
ownership that has always sifted
the property through them into
a few hands and made them serfs
and slaves. By owning the pro-
perty the people must have or
perish, they own thep o >le more
surely than if they were chattel
slaves. The masses are so
blinded by education they do not
realize their condition. Long
used to it, they do not see their
mental bondage.
