hold a first grade certificate. Bray
claimed to hold a certificate from Pot
tawatomie county, aud the auperin
tendent of Pottawatomie claims he did
not issue the certificate. The Shaw
uee Capital has the following to say
under the caption of, "Work for tht
Grand Jury:"
The forged certificate granted to
Bray, of Lincoln county, shows up a
terrible condition of affairs under the
late populist administration in this
county. Think of the vicious blow
this kind of corrupt practice strikes at
the school system of the territory. If
men as notoriously incompetent as
this man Bray can be foisted upon a
community by the bribery and forgery
of a political clique in another county,
what is the sense of holding any ex-
aminations at all, aud where the need
of having any superintendent or
teachers'.' Of all the crimes committed
in this territory since its organization,
this is certainly the most infamous,
since it strikes at the very foundation
of our system of government and in-
jures not only the individual, but all
the people, from the innocent child to
the mature man and woman. It
puts a premium on the vilest in-
competency, and sets a precedent
for the most vicious corruption ever
practiced in any country. The grand
jury now in session should probe this
matter to the bottom, aud the guilty
parties should be made an example of.
The honor of our people and the pro-
tection of the children of this and
every other county demands it. County
Attorney Lackey, who was one of the
examiners, owes to himself and the
good people he represents, that the
guilty participants in this crime shall
be brought to justice.
The Capital has been in possession
of the general facts of this monstrous
crime against the intelligent teachers
parents and scholars of the comma
nity from the time the supreme court
commission began its investigation,
but it had been cautioned in the pub-
lic interest to await the publication of
that report. It is now a lit matter for
the grand jury, and will undoubtedly
be thoroughly sifted by them. The
wrong done was so wanton and out-
rageous that no innocent man should
be denied the privilege of purging
himself from the infamy of such a
crime, and no guilty scoundrel should
be allowed to go unpunished.

The Oklahoma Ni.erllt Decllnea tu Settle

WAC.), Texas, Feb. !i2.—[Special.J
There was a lengthy conference, last-
ing several hours, between the attor-
neys on both sides in the controversy
growing out of the Edwards extradi-
tion case. The attorneys for Prof.
Hdwards were willing that he should
surrender for extradition and abandon
the habeas corpus proceedings for
which he had applied in the court of
criminal appeals, but another point
arose. The sheriff's association is un-
willing that the cost of the contempt
proceedings should be taxed against
Sheriff Lake, the Oklahoma officer,
and at the suggestion of the Texas
sheriff's, Sheriff Lake has refused
settle che cost bill, which amounts to
about SfiOO. In remitting the fine in
his proclamation of pardon, Governor
Culberson did not remit the costs, and
it is understood that the executive
clemency cannot extend to costs in
granting pardons. The question of
costs is now the only remaining cause
of detention in Texas of Sheriff Lake
and Prof. Edwards. When the ques-
tion of costs is settled the entire con-
troversy will come to an end. In or-
der to settle the question as to who is
to pay the costs, the attorneys for
Sheriff Lake have taken the contempt
proceedings to the court of criminal
appeals. In his application to the
court of criminal appeals for a hearing
on a writ of habeas corpus Sheriff
Lake states that he was fined 8" o and
costs and that the governor pardoned
him as to the fine. He states that he
was not in contempt of the court and
lias committed no offense, and he asks
that the court of appeals discharge
him from custody.
"OUR STRATEUISTS."
rile Weston Comedians Greeted l y a
Crowded House
Those who attended the presenta-
tion of "Our Strategists" at McKen-
non's opera house last night by the
Weston comedians, left their sorrows
behind and returned to their homes
holding their sides and with hearts as
light and happy as school children.
Mr. Warren Noble and Miss Nellie
Miller presented their roles with that
grace and ease which at once wins the
hearts of the audience and brings them
in full touch with the different char-
acters. As a fun maker Mr. Noble has
few equals, and as "The Strategist"
kept in close touch with his audi-
ence and at once caused them to for-
get the trials and worries of every day
life and enter into the troubles and
mishaps of an ardent lover and his
sweetheart. Miss Miller won the
hearts of the boys by her pretty face
and sweet voice and was at once de-
clared a favorite.
The troupe throughout are artists
and at once impress their audience.
Their specialties are new and catchy,
and their stay in this city will be
marked by crowded houses.

agement to thank the ladies for re-

with which the ladies are adopting
this method is pleasing and gives
those behind them a clear view of the

Guthrle'N Itig Dry
Inns, Preparing for the
Spring Trade.
The Rush has long been considered
as one of the leading dry goods houses
of the territory, and people from all
parts of Oklahoma make frequent
visits to The Rush to do their trading.
This year Mr. W. T. Coleman, the
manager of this big institution, has
almost exhausted the markets of the
east in order to place before the peo-
ple of Oklahoma the many new and
handsome novelties that are shown in
the east. No cheap, shoddy or bank-
rupt sale goods are carried by this
firm, but all goods are bought and
shipped direct from the eastern mar-
ts, thus giving the people of Guthrie
and Oklahoma good goods at the same
price that they would have to pay for
inferior articles This season Mr.
Coleman is making extraordinary
fforts to get what the people want,
and the space which The Rush will oc-
cupy in Tiik Static Capital will con-
tain many bargains which the people
will do well to take advantage of.

the commissioner of pensions on the

Every four years objections are made
that March 4 is usuaJly t<*> inclement
to make the outdoor inaugural display
a complete success. It is not generally
known that the fathers of the republic
intended April 3u to be the day of in-
auguration, but t he congress of the con-
federation in 1788 fixed U|M>n a giv
Wednesday for the next inauguration,
and that day being the 4tJi of March
each succeeding candidate has gone into
office on the subsequent quadrennial
anniversary. The popular impression
that March 4 is established by the con-
stitution as inauguration day is er
roneous, and any congress could de
cree a change to April 30. And as long
as the public seems to desire a public
show whenever a new president as-
sumes office such a chang« would do
away with considerable hardship and
subsequent illness.
