and wonilerfully made election law
after all.
You take nearly every statute
passed by any representative body
and upon a close Investigation you
will find that the Idea and to a
gnat extent the language has been
copied from some other state or law.
Someone has wild, "There Is noth
ing new under th" sun," and In an
abstract way this Is true since tun-
nisi lence always was and nlways !
will be The Taylor election law 1
Is no more novel than other bills
or laws. It has the Idea copied from
Massachusetts and the details wore
dove tailed In with the Oklahoma
law
This law does provide penalties
for violation; It tloes not place the
party machinery In the hands of tho
democrats any more than the law
did by which and under which the
last election was ( (inducted at which
time many republicans were elected
to office. Tho farmer, the business
man or the laborer who Ih placed
on the election board has both the
honor and Instinct of a free Amer
ican citizen and If there wero no
penalties to the law. he would nor
withstand the public opinion of his
nelghtxirs and defraud them of their
voles by his own corrupt work.
These men never have done It nor
did they refrain fiom doing it sim
ply from the small penalty of the
law j
His precinct contains the otiS
of himself and IiIh neighbors and j
trliMids and It means moio tlum pol
itlis to him to see that his pre
cl m t. Is counted. This front the
standpoint of the man. The law, '
however, provides for penalties. The '
Taylor election law says to every
man you must know the man you '
desl e to vote for; that Is. you must j
at Hast know his name hvery day!
4ind every day. the people are more,
and more rixUlzli.g that the nXK
means more innn ine party. . pro-
grislve republican is as different
from a ronetlouary one as a white
from a black man. while at the
same time there Is no difference be
tween the nsctlonary republican and
t'lti reactionary democrat. 1 Is a
qtusMon of men and you should
know nnd have a choice of the

illere is how ho did do:

nor at any time, called the attention. u,.n" that wo give five-year notes

The governor was present In his ' of the assessed value of our prop
office tho date that Norrls claims ..rty. The notes can be sold at par
to have carrletMils pack of papers to aim the money used In limiting fac-
the wooretary of state' office. .Mr.
Norrls could have found tho govern
or without any delay by simply com-
lug Into the governor's office and
making his wnuts known, this Nor
rls did not do.
'Norrls simply dropped ills sealed
huiidlctf or pamphlets in the secre
tary of state's office took the clerk's
receipt for the package of papers
d'd not ask to have anything done,
simply went away.
The governor did not know until
long after the newspaper gohslp men
tioned these petitions.
Thus by the negligence of Mr. Nor
rls himself no petition was ever maun
up or filed. Tfiie fact is that al
though Chairman Norrls Is paid by his
party for staying at Guthrie and look
ing after the party machine he was
off at Washington on a wild goose
chase after a bigger piece of plo foi
himself and leaving his official du
ties to be looked after by an Inex
perienced and Incompetent secretary
and thus ninety days was fooled
awoy with Norrls chasing rainbow
In Washington.
Now finding himself nlKiut to

blundered by failing to appeal from
the secretary of states ruling to tne
supreme court and now foolishly fries
to work a mandamus. C4ialrmau Nor-
is having neglect. I the wo.U his
party trusted him o do tries mv ti
evade rosponslblli by crltlcu ,: the
governor to the public, even thuiu'i
he admits In court he never aw the
governor or made any request of
him whatever.
There are several other errors a-,
well as whole p.ig.-s of signature
In the same handwriting that M
Norrls would not w.i.,i shown i p. So
the fact .s Norrls is willing to be
