FRANKLIN FILES FOR GOVERNOR AND ISSUES STATEIWENT I have repeatedly stated that if any one could show that I belong to any faction or political machine or that there is anything with my' private life, or official record, I would not burden my party by becoming a candidate for governor.

I have waited until the last day to file to see if some good, strong democrat, who belongs to no faction or political machine and who would show respect for the laws of this state with regard to campaign expenditures, would come out for governor, that no such person has filed for said office. I charge that some of the so-called leading candidates are flagrantly violating the spirit and letter of our primary election laws and that they are acting upon the assumption that the governorship of Oklahoma-is on the auction block. I charge that the meth- tfdSused are unfair and corrupt and that they are threatening popular gov- WOMACK REPORTS LARGE POTATO YIELD; ONIONS THAT WEIGH OVER ONE POUND The heavy tains this week gave set back to potato digging and onion harvesting in this part of the CQiuity. The potato crop here is reported tc be very good and the onion crop has produced well. Jim Womack, who is farming a short distance south of here, reports that he has a splendid Potato cfpp and that his yield will be heavy; Mr.

Womack also has a good onion crop some of his onions -weighing over a pound, but they generally weigh ab'out one-half pound is the right size for the market. Mr. Mabray also has a fine onion crop. Bob Walton reports that his onions so far have been fine. The local onion raisers will ship their onions to the produce markets in carloads.

In all probability the potatoes will be shipped from here by the carloads to market as the onions will be. The farmers hereabouts Jiave met ernment. It is useless to talk about with good success in their potatoes, remedial legislation or needed reforms onions, strawberries and other early until the people give rebuke to the market produce, this year 'the prdS" BOUNTEOUS RAINS FALL IN OF COUNTY town lots and lots with houses already built upon some of them; these farm.s__around liere that are for and not only this but when more capital is induced to enter this field you are to see the oil and industry developed, and then things will boom.

Johnson, democrat, that he will speak in Sequoyah county next Wednesday, June twenty- third. His general itinerary has not been announced, but it is believed that he will speak at several different points within the county, and probably in Sallisaw Wednesday night. Johnson is ranked as one of the leaders in the Governor's race and has been making a clean, gentlemanly campaign He is quite well to many local people and his visit next Wednesday will find a renewal of acquaintances on every hand. His strength is to be in the western part of the State, but of late would indicate that his visit to the east side is making inroads upon other canddiates and that he will poll a heavy vote along the Arkansas border.

Mr. Franldin's Announcement will be found elsewhere in this issue pf the Sun. penditure of vast sums of money ti elect candidates and machine politics, the stream cannot be cleansed so I long as the fountain is impure.

If can' didates who play for the votes of the. farmers and labonng people, while they are financed by predatory inter- 1 6sts, and who try to play the churches while they are satisfactory to the lawless element, are to be rewardetl, good government must wait for a change in public sentiment. The real issue is, will, the people control their own government or will they abdicate and turn it over to the political pirates to be used by predatory interests? Will merit or money and machine control Other questions are of minor Importance. Aljthough I announced for governor sometime ago, certain papers and ilividuals, without any reason or excuse, have left the impression uith many that I would not run for governor. The people should not bo surprised if efforts are made in the future to discredit my strength -ir leave the impression that 1 have no ch.ance.

My strength has always geen vdth the masses. I am the only' candidate for governor who has lived for many years on. the south side of this state. I have lived about twelve years' on llic south side of this state. 1 was to manhood just across the line, fn Cooke and Montague counties, 'i'exas.

Many of my Texas relatives and friends are now living in Oklahoma. I believe that I have an unorganized following that is equal to th efollcwing of any other candidate for governor. A little inquiry will ary 'unbiased minded person that about per cent of our people are opposed to those whom many cnosid.er are the leading candidates. Governor Trapp and Mr. Johnston have, each, a certain definite following which will not likely be materially increased, although there are indications that large sums of money will be spsnt to aii.gr ment tlie.ir strength.

While vast of money have already been spent for Mr. Cargill, it is conceded by mand observers of the political situation that while he is now probably fourth in the race he is losing ground inst, andithat becomes better knowi anil! the source of his campaign funds are discovered, Mr. Darnell or Governor Robertson may forge ahead of him. While I have spoken to a number large crowds and no one will likely deny that I am gaining strength, I lia-ve, as all know, sent out no paid; workers or spent much money adverr; tising. Because of my official and the facts that I belong if no faction or political machine and it is gent; erally conceded that I can be if I secure the that I am toi more of decided vote Jthan'any other fot governor.

I beliove; that pects are good for a larger crop of this early marketable produce here next year. An attempt will be- made this year to, organize a local market to buy and ship these "early crops and the farmers from having to go to Van Buren, Fort Smith, Sallisaw and other places. ipi the produfce. When is done it will help greatly in getting the farmers to produce more of these early crops. This part of the county is better fitted to raise berries, onions potatoes and many other early- vegetable marketable produce than it is for producing cotton.

In order to get the farmers tc farm these early crops they will-have to have good backing, arid this they will get when a market is established here, to insure the producers of such crops, a local market for their produce. When the farmers get to producing crops, they will evntually, get into better financial condition. For they will begin the year with berries, and early vegetable crops, then will come the potatoes, and son on pto cot ton gathering time. In this way the farming country will not have its dull seasons like a country that only produces cotton. This is the very thing that will be tried in this part of the within the next year or two.

That was the idea in the large realtors through this part of the country last week. of our people will be oppo to the nomination of a man who' will bo burden to our party. In filing for governor, I am Inspired by the hope that the people will, between thiS; arid election day, apply to our political situation some of the saving of common sense. WILLIAM M. FRANKLIN.
