No matter what sinister purpose may bo rond Into tho aennto's Action regarding n tariff on pe troleum, or Into tho hou.to's nctlon In respect to tho same subject, tho explanation Is simple nnd entirely natunil. Hero In Oklahoma In Tulsa, tho oil capital of tho world It In difficult to understand tho lndlffercnco of loMslntorn to what U n tremendously Important Industry threatened by forolgn Invasion, Jlut tho mombor of congress sce tho oil In dustry through an entirely different glass. Ho iocs a comparatively small number of citizens domandlng n legislative net which tho great mass of cllljens disapprove Naturally ho ylolds to the larget number. Thoro Is significance In tho fact that only 0 votes out of 98 could bo mustered In support of Senator Hiuruld' man lutlon; and tho slmplo reason Is that the con sumers of petroleum nnd Its derivatives com manded tho enr of tho senato as ngulnst tho pro ducers of petroleum. Senator llarrcld made a Hplomlld and courageous fight for tho chief In dustry of his state, ono that will bo appreciated here, but ns much can baj said for tlnno sonntors leprescntlng consuming shiteH who voted ngnlnst him. Tho tariff on petroleum Is largely n local Issue, Tho government, whether Intentionally or not, hnn, through lb rjeulogln and ilntlntlonl de partment, been for yonrs withering ntdtlstlcs to support this opposition to n petroleum tariff. Time after. tlmo tho alarm ban bean sounded by ell men nnd government exports thnt tho oil deposits of tho United Statoa nro rapidly being depleted. It that Is true, then the only reine, cconomlo thing to do Is to open the United St.'tcs to tho free entrance of petroleum from olher countries, Kor tho economic law Is Im mutable, If tho reservos of petroleum hero nro capable of being accurately measured nnd thus tho discovery Is made that they are being do j )i Til by ecniumptton, prices on petroleum nnd I Vmatlves will H'ir to the embariajmont of tho consumer. Mind you, we are not asserting the nccuracy of statistics; too frequently lm The World ex pressed Its contempt for those oil statistics and the silly assertion that tho oil producing nroa of tho United States has been oven approxi mately charted. Hut wo do assert that In view of the ntatUtlcnl record It was a hopcki task to attempt to have tho congress write protec tion for petroleum. THU PltUSMUCXT AN'I) Til 12 STIUHi:. Tho announcement Is mndo, semi-official in Us character, thnt President Harding hns de--Ided to wash his hands of tho strlko by laying .he situation before emigres. Whether ho will idvocate any particular lino of action or any particular solution of the problom, remains to be seen. The World la one ot those who believe thnt ths only proper posIMon for a president or e. governor to take In n, controversy between em ployes and employer Is thnt tho law shall be enforced In respect to the safely and preserva tion of property, and thnt the Individual citizen shall have the full of his guarantees under tho constitution. There Ih not on record n single Instance where executive authority )iai been used ns mediator, or In n. temporising manner, that It ha not eo compllehed moro ovll than good, Wd Invito critics to name. a. single such aaso. If tho roply In ltoosevett's Intnrmeddllng In the coal strike yenm ago, the smtwer will be that Itoosevelt Is the -epiton which prove alt rules, and that the pteniMlent (hue established has been more mist hlevous than ben'(elal. And thli Is writ ten by one who remain a anu admirer of thu ssan of oyrter Day, and who loved him no len because of his proilunesn to err than because of his signal courage nnd hnneety, I'reslrtent Harding, wo permit ourselt to be lieve, weakened hlmeelf when he proposed a compromise on Impofulble grounds, to-wlt: The recognition of thn labor oligarchy's demand thnt It be restored tn Us original seniority and pref erence In tho rornliint of lh rl yi!j of. the country. If congrtw shall decide thnt there Is but ono course for It to pursue, to afford (ho presldont of tho republic not only the authority to en force .tho law In renpeet to property nnd tho rights of citizen tn eecept employment nnd bo protected In such exercise of a olenr constitu tional right, hut to order the executive to such a oouree of action, then prgre will have been made towards , satin nnd constitutional solu tion of thin ever growing problom. If In tho most remote nnd bolald section of tho republic ono man desires to necept employment nnd Is proventod from exorcising such right In a penee ful manner by other men, whether thoy be out laws so recognized or union men prntlng of their rights, thn enttro army of the United Stales If necessary should called out to protect suoh citizen In the exercise of the rlghtn guar anteed htm under tho constitution.

It was moro tlinn revolutionary, It was trensonablo, an Inllch so as tho spirit of those hyphenated Americans who blow tip malcrlnt manufactur ers,' planted bombs In ships and destroyed rail road bridges In the hope nnd expectation of fordng government to comply with their Im proper demands. Sooner or later constitutional government npd those functioning under'a solemn oath to do fend nnd presorvo constitutional government, must meet this revolutionary labor oligarchy with Its revolutionary purposes faco to face and determlno which shall rulo tn this country. It the president's resignation of tho strlkn con troversy Into tho hnnrts of congress should eventunto In such nn issue being Joined now, tho whole country would bo tho gainer.

A. ltobertsun, Waltr-i thus far lias very appropriately kept his silence ' until ho has hnd a chance more tlosely lo study Ihe new doatiinent.'' Oh, what s good time they must havo hart! When J.

To tlo that would bo to break his own word, which he uttered tho other day when he said: "1 h-taud Irrevocably for the pro gram and platform of the Shawnee conference until it Is amended, changed or modified by the groups that gave It birth." The only other reasnnablu course ho has Is to refuse to necept the doctored document. If ho does that he bus spat Into tho f.iee of the democratic party of Oklahoma, and, to maintain Its self rospect. It wlil have to renounce htm. Of course It would be remotely possible for Walton to gather tho Itoconstructlon league to gether at least n, sufflolont group of men that ho ran call tho lUoonstructlon lengue nnd have that body mnko the changes that the demo crntlo party has order!. Hut, If ho gathers men of the typn that mot nt Hhawneo and gavo tho platform birth bu cannot expect them to do thnt kind of n Job, The flames are licking at tho feet of J, C. Walton. That uustore gentloman from Okla homa, Senator llnbert J.. Owen, pleaded Ills cnune. So did other democratic leaders and they pleaded for Walton oven boforo they know that Walton's very platform on which ho ob tained the nomination, had boon altered until It was scarcely rocognlsnblo, with Walton htm solt nppnrenlly In doubt as to where ho would consign tho democratic party for Its nctl Neither Mr, Walton nor Senator Owen, nor yot Charles N.

Wnlton has hut ono thing hu can do, honorably, anil that Is to renounce tho child ot the demo cratic, convention, because ho said ho would. When ho does this, Sonutor Owen, tho two do footed candidates for the nomination and Charles N.

It hns long been n conjecturn In my mind why such a bold, flashy attack was mndo to lnvostlgato tho klan in Washington, and havo such nn nbrupt end ing without comment. Perhaps this point might be cleared In continuing In part: "I hero and now plodgo my life, my property, my -vote and my sacred honor to uphold Un flag, Its consti tution nnd constitutional laws and will protect nnd dofond nnd enforco sumo until death."
