THE NEWS FROM OKLAHOMA.
Got tome word from Oklahoma on the Wednesday morning wire; Just some facts about election and they filled us full of fire. • Just some good election figures, and we just leaned back and laughed At the way young Oklahoma handed limes to William Taft. Clear from Enid down to Guthrie, and from there to Chikasha Everything is democratic and we’re feeling blithe and gay. Got some word from Oklahoma and it filled us full of glee— But there’s gobs of gloom now headed straight for Washington, D. C. Got some word from Oklahoma, and we’ve swept the platter clean; Licked the grasping corporations and the carpet-bag machine. Forty thousand for the ticket—speed the news upon the way Till it bumps against the wharfing fronting on Manila Bay Ftom Kingfisher to Okmulgee, clear down to tbeTexas line. Everything is democratic and we’re feeling mighty fine. „ Bully news from Oklahoma—democratic to the core— And when Taft gets word about it he will feel almighty sore. Three times three for Oklahoma! Forty thousand! Hully gee! Please excuse us if we holler, for our souls are filled with glee. Bucked the whole administration and the g. io. p. machine. And we whipped ’em. boots and breeches—licked tbe bloomin’ platter clean. Yee, we heard from Oklahoma, and we swing our hats on high, And onr cheers crossed tbe Pscific to Manila Bay.P.l. There’s a new star on the banner and its shining mighty bright. And she’s safely democratic—Oklahoma, you’re all right. —W. M. M. in Ths Commoner.
