Joseph McNeal of Guthrie presented
his candidacy for governor to the re-
publican voters of Chickasha last
night. It was a telling speech and
Mr. McNeal has made many friends
by his visit to the city. lie was
greeted by a crowd of over one hun-
dred voters at the hall.
iHe gave facts and figures in his
speech. He said that he had made
a business success of his life and he
believed that was the kind of man
that should be entrusted with the
government of the state of Oklaho-
ma.
He said that when the state offi-
cials took charge of the new state
of Oklahoma that the state had a
balance outstanding of approximate-
ly $100,000 and that now after a
little over two years of democratic
administration chat the state was in
debt to the amount of nearly $3,000,-
000. He showed tne difference in
the running of state offices and ter-
ritorial offices. It cos* the territory
-$5,600 to run the governors office
under the territorial government.
Under the state government it cost
$57,000 'to maintain the governor's
office and a deficiency appropriation
of $16,000 had to be made. The of-
fice of auditor under the territorial
government cost $2,800, under the
rule of /Haskell the same office has
cost $29,000; the territorial auditor
cost $6,700, the same office under
the state government 1 as cost $31,-
610; the territorial treasurer cost
$3,800, the same office under the
'present administration has cost $15,-
300. Under the territorial govern-
ment it cost $26,000 to maintain the
school land department while under
the 6tate government it has cost
$223,817. The actual expenses of
the last territorial legislature were
$5*5,000, the actual expenses of the
P^irst state legislature was $273,000
The expenses of the Second legis-
lature were $120,912. The last ter
ritorial legislature appropriated
$894,300; the First legislature ap
propriated $2,909,354, and the Sec-
ond legislature spent $6,831,431
the peoples' money. Under the sev-
enteen years of territorial rule Ok-
lahoma spent $1 86,000 for printing
under the first year of democratic
rule Leslie Niblaek himself received
$73,774. It will be recalled that Nib-
lack is the son-in-law of Haskell.

At a conference to be held tomorrow
Vote on| by representatives of the vui
virie associations it is expected that
the first definite steps will be taken
looking to the revision of the pres-
ent municipal charter. The most im-
portant changes advocated by the
ivie associations are amendments to
secure direct nominations, nonparti-
san municipal eletcions and majority
rule, an amendment to prevent fran-
chise grabbing, and amendments to
simplify and make effective the pres-
nt charter provisions in regard to
the Initiative, referendum and recall.
Guthrie, C'tla., March 29.—The
rumor is current that Governor Has-
kell has issued a proclamation calling
for a special election for June 11 to
vote on the initiative for the state
capital location proposition.
Yesterday afternoon the governor
heard a committee representing the
Guthrie chamber of commerce, who
opposed the issuance of the proclam-
ation on the ground that it was in
conflict with the enabling act, and
like the prohibition question, should
be put up to the supreme court. The
executive hHd that there were no
points of similarity as to the capital
question and the prohibition ques-
tion, 'but admitted that there was
"presumption of reasonable doubt."
The committee contended that in-
asmuch as reasonable doubt presum-
ably existed, the higher court should
first ipass upon the case before it
was submitted to the people. It was
contended that an election would
mean the expenditure of a big cam-
paign fund by Guthrie property own-
ers and in the event of coming out
second best the city would be re-
quired to put up $100,000 before an-
other contest could be waged. After
two campaigns the proposition might
be nullified by the supreme court

Arkansas. II was derided that it I which would mean th -usands of dol-

his medicine, and by turning him
over to the Arkansas officer, Can-
adian county will not have to pay for
the dose.

lars thrown away with the question
still unsettled.
There is division of sentiment in
Guthrie relative to a location elec
tion. Property owners and business
men and those who would be requir-
ed to furnish the sinews of a cam-
paign, are unalterably opposed to an
election now, or at least until the
initiative matter has been finally set-
tled by the supreme court. Those
citizens, who are not so deeply iden
tified with Guthrie's welfare, argue
that the question should be settled
now, once and for all; that the city
will take on greater growth with th
twenty years' capital bugaboo out of
the way.
Governor Haskell by replying to
arguments of the committee was
forceful and candid, and paid his re-
spects to those persons and interests
in Guthrie, who, under the cloak of
politics, stabbed the executive and
the state administration.
"My personal feelings shall not en-
ter into this matter at all," said the
governor. "This proposition ;has
been ! anging fire for six months, and
the petitioners are growing restive
and are clamoring for action, 1
have no desire to take summary ac-
tion and shall hear all sides of the
question, but I do not think the pro-
hibition question and tho capital
proposition as applied to reasonable
Hntent, are analogous.
Asked if he would grant a further
and more extended hearing to the
Guthrie committee, the governor
said;
"Yes, certainly; I will name Wed-
nesday morning, March 30, at 10:30
as the date and hour, when you may
have your counsel in the ease pres-
ent to go over the matter."
Attorney Jack 'Homer, who was
present, said that his associate coun-
sel in the ease, Frank Dale, was in
Oklahoma City this *eek, but that
he would notify him to toe present
at the hearing Wednesday.
The committee then disipersed.
Governor Haskell has not intimated
any change of plans as to the hear-
ing to be given the Guthrie commit-
tee.
Governor Haskell aiso called an
election for June 11 to vote upon
tne initiated petition to change arti-
cle 9, section 9, of the state consti-
tution.
Guthrie, March 29.—That was an
Innocent looking resolution, that six-
foot Abel Tooley, representative from
Beaver county, introduced during the
recent special session of the legis-
lature, to ascertain the whoreaibouts
of that $10,000 appropriated by the
First state legislature for the cyclone
su.fferers in former "No Man's Land."
■The Tooley resolution, like all the
other exposure resolutions introduc-
ed by the republicans, was smoth-
ered to death in the archives of the
special investigating committee se-
lected by the governor.
Tooley was seekiing an Itemized
accounting from President Connors
of the state board of agriculture rel-
ative to the course of the appropria-
tion, but the democratic leaders re-
fused to let the people know the
many things connected with the fund.
'But it is one of the unerplainable
matters that they will bo called up-
on to explain on the stump during
the campaign.
Two or three days afier the legis-
lature made the $10,000 appropria-
tion for cyclone sufferers, the money
was drawn in warrants by Connors
from the state treasury ar.d deposit-
ed by him personally in a local ad-
ministration bank. The warrants
were drawing six per cent interest,
which went to the bank Immediately
after the warrants were deposited by
Connors, to w'hose credit the bank
placed ten thousand dollars without,
however, ever investing a cent in the
deal.
The deposit of Conno.s drew three
per cent interest from the bank
just half of the amount on interest1
the state warrants were paying to
the bank. Of the $ 10,000 money,
Connors and several assistants spent
$495.60 in investigating cyclone con-
ditions in the country, for which the
fund was appropriated, and then re-
ported back to the state board of ag-
riculture that the alleged sufferers
did not need the moii'.y. All the
time however, the money was lying
in the local bank, drawing for it six
per cent interest on the warrants
and earning as a bank deposit but
three iper cent interest.
After the lapse of almost a year,
it dawned upon the mind of some
unember of the state board of agri-
culture that the ten thousand cyclone
fund was someWhote, and an investi-
gation disclosed it still resting snug-
ly in the local bank, paying to tin
bank six per cent interest and earn
ing but three percent as a stand-off.
A demand was made that the money
be returned to the state treasury,
and this was done together with the
very generous sum of $197.70 inter
est. The state during the entire
transaction, lost three per cent ln-
Partly because the arrangements

VETOED POOL
HALL BILL
Guthrie, Okla., March ?D. -Gover-
nor Haskell Lhls afternoon vetoed
the house bill by Earl giving cities
and '.owns the right to exclude pool
halls from within one mile of any
s hool. He gives as reason that In
Ai\a, Stillwater, Norman and other
towlis designed to be reached the
n lie prohibition would not remove
the pool halls from the range of stu-
dents; that the halls could be estab-
lished just over the milo line and
away from the restrictions of the mu-
nicipality, thus defeating the very
pirpose of the bill.

Congressman IXick T. Morgan in ex-

Speaker Cannon in his ruling against
the Norris resolution which was sup-

gents, gave out the following state-
ment: "Presented at the proper
time, I would have supported the
proposition to enlarge the commit-
tee on rules. But I could not sup-
port the democrats aud insurgents
in a proceeding that was revolution-
ary in character, and which makes a
precedent that will enable the min-
ority in the future to obstruct busi-
ness and prevent legislation. The
decision of Speaker Cannon holding
the Norris resolution out of order,
was unquestionably correct, and I
could not conscientiously do other-
wise than vote to sustain him.
"There is a proper way under the
rules to make amendments thereto.
This method should be followed. If
you may violate the Miles in order
to make amendments thereto, then
you may the next day violate the
rules as amended. I believe in law
and order and therefore couldn't
give my endorsement t--> a proceeding
