The bill relating .to fees and salaries

musical program at Pawnee last even-
ing.
Prof. Holter gave his junior chemis-
try class a lecture on the Kjeldahl
method for nitrogen yesterday. This
is the method used by the experiment
station for determination of nitrogen
in foods. Nitrogen is one of the' chief
neutrients of a food, as it is the muscle
producer. The lecture was intensely
interesting and instructive.
"Everything g(,ps just like clock-
work up here," said a yesterday's visi-
tor. Yes, the botanist could hardly
take the place of the linguist or me-
chanic : the agriculturalist could scarc-
lj fill the place of the veterinarian;
but each wheel at its place, and the
clock keeps ticking.
id.i wtw-u There are ten good numbers 011 the
vote for such 10[m'Kn literary society program for
next Saturday evening. Assembly hall
7:30 p.m. Public invited.
A carpenter is at work constructing
four large cases for the display of the
grass and wheat samples of the agri-
culture department. They will be
placed in the northeast room on the
first floor of the assembly building
Good manners forbids telling tales
out of school, or some comment might
be made on the boy who tried to ride
the museum "pony" through a written
recitation yesterday. But that's all.
It's true that Dr. Interest has many
patients, and many that absolutely
have to be cared for, but atbleties and
oratory seem to be suffering most just
at present. Let some of your minor
patients go, Doc., they must write ad-
vertisements for the institution.

ative here that he will surrender and

STEPHENS
CONFESSES
TO FLYNN.
If the Bill Fails to Pass, Stephens
and the Democratic Party
are Responsible.
| Special to the Daily Gazette.
Washington, D. C., Feb. ^-Yester-
day, Mepbens went tt> Flynn and they
dbcussed their differences at length.
Stephens admitted the charge that
Flynn lodged against him in the heat
of their debate a week ago—that imme-
diately on the passage of the hill open-
ing the Kiowa-Comanche country last
spring, he, Stephens, wired acoustiu-
ent of his, a blacksmith, immediately
to close out his business, and go into
the mineral lands and locate a olaim.
1 he substance of the charge was that
Stephens knew something of tne means
by which that mineral provision crept
into the bill.
Stephens practically told Flynn the
incident was true, and also practically
acknowledged that his denial on the
floor of the house, when Flynn charged
him with this, was made for effect, and
was untrue.
Ihen came the proposition of Steph-
ens to the Oklahoma delegate that he,
Stephens, would interpose no further
objection to consideration of the Flynn
bill for the disposition of lands, etc., if
Flynn would let him have a share of
the patronage. Of course, Flynn made
no promise; will not do so; yet, if it
becomes necessary to make some sort
of concession in the interests of the
bill he will do it, believing it better to
have the bill a law, even thougti with
some change.
Stephens intimated if Flynn did not
make the promise lie would object and
log-roll from now until adjournment.
It was a direct challenge.
Flynn has not faltered so far, howev-
er, and he will not. He is working for
Oklahoma and Oklahoma people—not
fo. Texas and Stephens' democratic
following.
The whole thing can be boiled down
to this—if Flynn fails to pass his bill
the blame will attach to Stephens and
the Texas delegation. If Flynn wins,
it will be scarce less a victory than free
homes, or the original Kiowa-Co
mancbe bill.
Oklahoma ought to know the facts:
to realize what is happening here and
how it-is happening, it ought to know
what Flynn has to meet, and how the
little delegate meets it. It ought to
know where to attach blame in case
the bill does not pass.
