6UQQE8T8 RURAL 8CHOOL8.
Nortnun, Oklo., Nov. 17.—President
Boyd uatiniates that 80 per eent of
tho sohttoi Khtldren of Oklahoma can
advance no farther than the 8th grade
for the reason thnt the facilities are
not offered. It is fcr this reason that
he suggests the rural high school as
a remedy. He maintains also that
the hoys and girls on the farm will
take advantage of schools thus offer-
ed more quickly than will the children
In tho cities. He considers the estab-
lishment of county high schools, such
as now are heated and in operation
«l Guthrie and Helena, a step in the
right direction, as they give the coun-
try jtudents an opportunity to obtain
a high s.hool training. But the
greater number are still not reached
by the county high school.
Ton* F. Carey, ol Shawnee, has an-
nounced himself as candidate for
chief clerk at the constitutional con-
vention. He announces himself as a
rock-ribbed Democrat and is making
a strong race for the position. He Is
at present, president of the Demo-
cratic club and treasurer of the uni-
versity. He lias had considerable ex-
perience in the banking business and
as long as there was a bookkeeping
class here he was Instructor. He is
undoubtedly competent to fill this po-
sition and his many friends would be
plea, od to see him honored with the
position.
Tho Umpire, the semi-weekly paper
published by the students, lias at last
been granted right of entry as second
class nail matter. This places the
Vmplre upon a much better basis.
in order that as many people of
the new state as possible may receive
some immediate benefit from the
State University of Oklahoma as au
institution established and carried on
for the dissemination of learning, the
faculty committee on university ex-
tension has compiled a list of the lect-
ures offered by members of the facul-
ty to Oklahoma communities. No
charge is made for these lectures ex-
cept actual expenses of the lecturers.
These Kcttre^ are suitable for deliv-
ers before various kiuds of literary,
educational or religious societies.

CRIME OF FATHER
Muskogee, 1. T., Nov. 19.—Infuri-
ated because his son today was com-
pelled to marry a girl who accused
him cf betraying her, II. C. Campbell,
a wealthy farmer residing near Taft,
15 miles west of this city, last night
shot and instantly killed George Sulli-
van, father of the girl, and Marion
Marren, Sullivan's son-in-law. A negro
bystander was fatally wounded.
Several weeks ago Charles Camp-
bell, son of the accused murderer, was
arrested at South McAlester, charged
with seducing Sullivan's daughter. He
was brought to Muskogee and placed
in jail. Saturday Sullivan and his
daughter caa» to town, young Camp-
bell was taken firm jail, a marriage
license was procured, and the wedding
ceremony was performed in the court
houes. Campbell was returned to his
cell and his wife ami her father went
back to Taft.
It is said that the elder Campbell
did not believe his son was guilty of
the crime with which he was charged,
and that when he learued of the "mili-
tary" wedding at Muskogee he be-
came infuriated.
From reports which have been re-
ceived here it appears that, Campbell,
Sullivan and Warren met iu a drug
store at Taft about 9 o'clock, llet
words were passed and all three drew
guas. Campbell, however, was the
quicker and killed both of the other
xen before they could fire a shot.
GATES CONFIRM3 8T0RY
OF THE BIG PIPE LINE.
Tulsa, 1. T., Nov. 10.—Word was re-
ceived in this city yesterday from the
effico of Chillies G. Gates In New
York Cits', that the Gatos interests
had purchased tho piping for the pro-
posed gulf line spoken if in The
Leader at various times in the- past
two months. This confirms tlio state-
ment that Gates is to build, or assist
in l.iiiidiug a line to the Gulf of Mex-
ico from Tulsa.
The Associated Press story to the
efiVct that piping for 340 miles of pipe
lino front the territory to tho gulf,
had been purchased from the National
T'i.be corrrany, mentioned Pittsburg
people as the purchasers. This is
looked upon by oil men as tending to
confirm the double project proposi-
tion.
A prominent eil operator said last
night, that there was enough produc-
tion i lithe territory to furnish any
number of companies in all the oil
they wanted.
