For The I omtnon uootl of All Tie People?
AN APPEAL For Help
TEACHERS TO i s I IN
It is lepotted tlnii Eieenian I.. Muiiiu says lie oppoed the up
poiutment of Cttpt. Jackson as p.iinliiiiiii mi the police fence of t hl
city because "Hie Star was for him and this was his ouli ieaoii lot
autuiiouizinij Cant. Jack.son.
The Stur will always be glad In champion the cause of Mich men
aa dipt. JuckitOu, especially when puhlie demands ure calling foi
true, brave uieu, meu of integrity, public spirited men who stand
lot- something arid who are eupnble of commanding u resjieetuble lid
lowing of hotiesi men, raid women. The Star's miIIc.v is ihoioitghli
established as touching public morals and public men. lu our hum
ble way, we huve tried to improve public tondilioiis in Tulsa iiiiiI
to some extent, at least, we lime succeeded.
The ie-icctuble men uud wome n of this clti, the pun-nth of little
boy and girls who lore and uppreciMte puhlie decency, owe it to the
influence of The Star that they mat no w walk along East Archei
street (.more no than ever befoie) without witnessing disgraceful
nets of immorality anil fmced to listen to all kind of vulvar, pro
fuue and obscene luug'uuge.
We have uot waged wur against the low, vicious, block: elemein
only, but when the occasion demanded it. we fought (sticccssfulli
too) the same element of white degenerates. We hare done all oi
this for the public good; hcciiu.se we honor mid respect the-good worn
to Of thin city. "No doubt Mis. Mai tin, the wife of the man we cannot
honor, whom we respect with oilier decent women of thin cili, Mill
admit that this is mi Irast one good tiling accomplished by the Tulsa
Star.
iu advocutiug tlieapitoinimeni of C'upt. Juckson to the position
of putioluiau iu this VI ty Me have done so Isdiev'iug that it was tin
light thing to do, having in mind only the hetteimetit of the jieoplc
iu this community. '
Mattin's position in this matter brands hint a very small man
indeed. He say's he opposed the appointment of Cuirt. Jackson sole
ly because the editor of thin paier was tor him. Wax this a manlv
act? '
If he bad (he Interest of the people as a whole at heart he would
doubtless have advocated the beat thing tossihle for the-people, all
tin. people. Did he do it? Xo!
And now he would have some believe that Capf. Jackson failed
to DeupM)inted because he opposed him. This, however, is not so
and Mat tin may prrtfit by the knowledge of this information.
The Star will continue ro follow honest convictions, and will
advocate without fear or favor those things which we believe to be
for the public good. We will light eternally all things and all men
we know to be duugeiou to the well being of our people.
