tee that it has more bona tide paid

It is hard indeed to believe
that honest people, even though
they be republicans, would be
guilty of formulating the abso-
lutely false charges trumped up
against the election proceedings
of last Tuesday. In so far as
this county is oonoerned, it is
only a part of a general soheme
hatched out before the day of the
election by carpetbag bosses, as
a dying kick against Oklahoma's
freedom. As for the sig. ers of
the charges, may the deed be a
thorn in their sides so long as
they remain in these parts, and
we sincerely believe this will not
be long, for their kind are few

will be opposed by Senator Theo-

A dispatoh to the Oregonian

work in the mines, were escorted
to the river steamer Gleamcr by

and started back toward Vanoou

notice upon the Japs that if they
did not stay away violence would
be shown in protecting diggings

Wasn't it funny how the re
publican papers and campaign
urged their following to support
their candidates and vote against
the constitution? Said the presi

Well let's wait about thirty days

Then a Wednesday republican
paper headline says: "Incomplete
returns from various sections of
the state show that prohibition
will carry by a safe majority,
while the constitution will be en-
dorsed by a much stronger vote.
All indications point to the elec-
tion of prank Frantz". But no
indications like that now. Eh?
ABOUT THE ELECTION
Bv Various Ones
The result of the election de-
monstrated the fact that no can-
didate can be expected to gain
votes by carrying a satchel full
of "red water" over the country
while campaigning, especially
when he openly boasts that he
keeps it in his office for his friends
and the negro is thu most frequent
visitor to his offioe.
A man who runs for an office
in the primary arfd then gets out
and fights the ticket in the gen-
eral election should be held in
contempt by members of all
parties. He is a Benedict Arnold
to his party and should be treat-
ed so. If he had been nominated
he would have expected the sup-
port of his oponent. If defeated
in the primary, he was under a
moral obligation to support the
ticked upon which he ran. Even,
if not a candidate in the primary
election, if he voted in the pri-
mary, he was morally bound lo
support that ticket.
Some who claim to be demo-
crats, supported some of the re-
publican nominees, although, if
they had been running for an
office, they could not have re-
ceived the support of the one
they voted for on the republican
ticket. Fools have been and will
always be.
It is understood that one man
sold and delivered most of tha
socialists in this oounty to the ^
republican party. It was con-
tended by some before the elec-
tion that the republicans and so
cialista would fuse. Others con
tended that they would not as the

minority in the constitutional
convention. The republicans
want their support just like they
do the negroes. They want to
make them tools to serve their
purpose and have no sincere

for living now? Will the repub-
