Guthrie, Okla., June 17.—(Special>
Members of the state banking board
controlling the $300,000 guarantee
fund, and the school land hoard con-
trolling $5,(X)0,IH)0 appropriated by
congress, are at outs because of the
high salaries paid some of the offi-
cials handling these two funds. The
latest raise for lieutenant governor
George Bellamy as president of the
banking board, has brought!) the
tight to a head and an explosion is
expected soon.
A section of the constitution pro-
vides that state officers shall receive
the salary fixed for their office, but
"sbaii not receive to his usc, any
eosts or perrequisites of office or
other compensation."
Since the organization of the state
banking board lieutenant governor
Bellamy has received $125 a month
as its president, in addition to hi,
$1,000 annually as lieutenant govern-
or. In April he was raised to $175
a month by the banking board. When
Roy (Jakes, secretary, was voted
$125, Bellamy objected to the secrc
tary receiving as much as tin prcsi
dent of the board and secured this
$50 raise.
Bellamy receives $2,1(H) ajinually
from the banking board and $1,000
salary in addition to his $1,500 con-
tingent fund as lieutenant governor
His total salary is $3,100, or more
than state treasurer Menifee, state
auditor Trapp or J. Conners r,
ceive and it is understood there is
move on foot to reduce Bellamy's
salary to its original proportions.
The fact that Bellamy received
other compensation than as lieu
tenant governorr was made an issue

I run a hash bazaar, just tip

yelling for meat; hoarders carniver
oils, boarders herbiverous: Allah
deliver us! just watch thein set!
Boarders are ravenous all the world
oer; "feed till you spavin us," thus
they implore; boarders are glutton-
ous, roast beet and muttonous;
"come and unboton us, so we'll eat
more! Little they pay me for chick
eli and rice; yet they waylay me for
J dainties of price; "bring us canarv
birds"—these are their very words,
bawling like hairy Kurds—"bring
them on ice!" I give them tea and
toast, jelly and jam, sonic kind of
stew or roast, codlish or ham; their
words are Chaticerous: "Dame Cup

GOVERNOR THREE DAYS;
GRAHAM DIDN'T KNOW IT.
Senator Clint Graham, of Mariet-
ta, was governor of Oklahoma fur
three days last week, but did not
know it. Governor Haskell was at-
tending the Confederate reunion in
Memphis, and Lieutenant Governor
Bellamy was in San Antonia, each
y.bsent without the other's knowl-
edge. Ily the terms of the constitu-
tion the president pro tempore of
the senate, in this instance Senator
Graham, is governor of the state in
thi' event ot the absence or incapaci-
ty ol the other two. Not having no-
tice of their departure, the senator
lost an opportunity to act as gov-
ernor.
