BUSY DAY
Students Invite Him to the Alva
Normal.

Present Resolutions Endorsing Him—
Wellston Callers See School Land
Board-Some Township
Appointments.
Yesterday was one of the governor's
busy days. In addition to making sev-
eral appointments he received a num-
ber of delegations from various cities
of the territory and passed upon several
important quest:, ns.
There called on the executive a party
of students of the Northwestern Nor-
mal school at Alva for the purpos? of
inviting the governor to visit the school
at a time convenient to himself, but
prior to the final action of fhe board of
normal regents in selecting a successor
to the president of the normal school,
Mr. Ament. The students. \Vfco called,
favor the retention of Mr. Ament at
the head of the institution, despite the
fiact that the regents have decided tc4
remove him They state that practical-
ly all the students favor his retention.
In the party, which called yesterday,
•were the following students:—John H.
Beyer, George H. Hicks. B>rt Langley,
A. K. Ross. Frank Madis-on and
Thomas Miller. It is very likely that
Mr. Ferguson will visit the school at
no distant date.
The callers left with the governor a
copy of the resolutions, passed by a
convention of the students of that nor-
mal. as follows:
Atva, O. T., Feb. 8, 1902.
To the Governor of Oklahoma:
Whereas, It has become current that
you contemplate making a change in
the management of this school, because
you are not satisfied with the results
here obtained: and
Whereas. Neither you nor any mem-
ber of the present board has ever vis-
ited the school; and
Whereas. A large number of us have
been students in other colleges, univer-
sities and normal schools, and believe
the spirit, work and results here, arai
equal to those of any other school, and
superior to any of other educational
institution."-- of Oklahoma; and
Whereas, We believe this fact, togeth-
er with the phenomenal growth of the
school, and the high moral tone that
has always been the subject of remarK
from visiting strangers, are all due to
the faithful and effective work of our
beloved and honored president. Jamea
E. Ament: and
Whereas. We believe your contem-
plated action would do irreparable in-
jury to our school and a grave injustice
to our president, and that it is our du-
ty to stand for the highest interests of
the insittutlon: now
Therefore, We, the undersigned stu-
dents of the Northwestern Normal,
most respectfully invite and earnestly
urge you to visit our school and base
your opinions of it and its management
upon personal knowledge rather than
unjust and prejudiced report.
WELLSTON DELEGATION.
F. J. Maldaner, G. Wr. Hall, J. W.
Cowgar and H J Cullen formed a party
of callers yesterday at the governor's
office They were business men of
Wellston and their mission was in re
gard to the cutting of timber from
school lands, of which there are many
acres in that vicinity. The request of
the callers was that the lessees of the
lands be allowed to have the timber to
dispose of at their pleasure which is
cut from lands at the permission of the
school land board. It has been the
custom to charge the lessee a certain
price per cord for all the wood cut
from such lands. The lessees hold that
they should be entitled to the wood as
a recompense for cutting it
The board decided to allow no timber
no matter how 'worthless, to be cuf
without the consent of the board In
cases where the timber is of little val-
ue and permission is granted to cut it.
the lessee will be allowed to have the
wood for his labor When the timber it*
valuable the conditions of course arj
different and thel essee must pay for
the wood which he cuts for market

Hon. Judge Wing, of the Federal Court
of Cleveland, has just issued a perma-
nent injunction with cists and damages
enjoining a lawyer named Gorey from
the manufacture and sale of an imitation
of CAISCARETS. Gorey Imitated tho
boxes, the shape of the tablet and used
a similar sounding name. This decision
is to oe commended. It Is a long step In
the right direction. Any dealer who will
offer a substitute or say that something
"is just as good" when CAS CAREYS are
called for, does it for the purpose of mak-
ing a few cents extra profit, which must
always be at the expense of the custo-
mer's health. CASCARKTS have been ad-
vertised freely in our columns and as tin*

The project has occupied the nttenti >n
of Director of Work.- Taylor fur some
time, and It Is stated at the genera; <>!'-
lilces of the World's Fair company that
it has received serious consideration. Mr.
Damm has been asked by the director of
works to demonstrate by expert opinion

He has prepared all of Mn snecilicatlons

management today. Th estimated cost
• f the fountain and its discharge is
000. If the plan is finally accepted by trie
World s Fair authorities, the company
would build the fountain and purchase
the mercury. Damm is prepared to sup-
ply the plans for tho mechanism of the
fountain.
One feature of the display would be tho
projection of an iron ball two hundred
pounds in weight at the apex of the high-
est jet. The ball would be suspended In
space on the same principle thai the pea
is suspended on the pipe bowl by perpet-
ual propulsion. The fountain would con-
tain 2,000 jets of quicksilver. Tne natural
beauty of the silver sprays would be en-
hanced by the aid of colored searchlights
turned on the streams. Dynasmic force of
GOO pounds pressure to every one hundrt d
pounds of recury would be necessary to
raise the dense column into the air. Mer-
cury is sixteen times heavier than water.
An underground plant of one hundred
horse power would be required to operate
th,- fountain. Four iron globes, eight feet
in diameter, studded with various colored
searchlights, would revyjve continuously
on axes, so as to causo the rays of t i
lights to strike the quicksilver sprays alt
different angles.
The mercury cylinders from which ra.-h
jet would be forced are designed with
diameters of eight Inches and the steam
syllnders from which the power to operate
every jet would Issue would be twenty-
four inches in circumference. The foun-
tain would be arranged sous to permit tho
changing of the altitudes t > which tho
combined sprays might Ik raised and low-
ered. Water would bet used in tne bowl
of the fountain to deaden the fall of tho
quicksilver, which could lie carried back
Into the reservoir under tho fountain. Tho
nn rcury being heavier than VUlt r it would
sink to the bottom and prevertf the esca,i<
of th" lighter element by the force of ita
density.
Inventor Damm figures that at the end
of the exposition S'JOO.OOO can be realised
by the World's Fair company from the
quicksilver. Its depreciation, according
to the estimates of expert metallurgical
engineers, will not exceed 6 per cent. It
has also been declared to be harmless in
pure uncomblned state. Mr Damm st^.i
that he has bids for the contsructlon of
the fountain at including the p1$nt
to operate it. This would leave $225,000 to
