TREAT THE TEAOIERS FAIRLY. School teachers in this city want more pay, says the Portland Tele gram. They want the fair treatment leHies fairness, however the School Direc tora iriay regard.it. or however they' may" feel compelled .o treatth inati ter officially. There is no. good rea son why we 'should rdake invidious distinction in the case of Joe. school teacher... Ttarejhfnq. pv.blic servant of whom we require more in accord ance with the compensation.; There are few. who require such preparation or upon wbohi the exactions of .duty rest more heavily or more constantly. It Is certainly the fact that no other- line of service produces results of greater importance and value to the community. If favor is shown to any class of public servants above an other, It should be shown to the school teachers. If anyone is to enjoy vacation with pay, the teacher is .that person. It Is only fair and reason able that the request of the teachers, In this regard at least, be granted. Whilev apparently it was unfor tunate fo Governor Haskell ever to have been elected to the highest ex ecuuve emce in uuanoma more could; hardly have been expected .of . new statthat seemed to develop in a single night In the. rush of Okla homa tias-ell won the governorship, and ever since hla inauguration he has failed to -measure up to what Okla homa ia entitled to in the way of an wecutlvev"' . . ,.,';.

She has the -bank guaran ty law and by demonstration it ' has proved anything but successful. And Oklahoma has other lawa that are al most, as foolish; It takes years to ripen a state into safe action, just aa it takes years for a man to become well balanced and jfr from .flighty thoughts. In years to come Oklahoma will reach a cane condition and will then be one of the best states in the union, for she has resources in abundance and. markets close to her door.
