J. W. Dickinson, a newspaper man
of Turner's Falls, a summer resort

cannot cancel without considerable

Quits University Faculty
NORMAN: Dr. Ernest T. Bynum,
head of the modern languages de»-
partment in the University of Oklaho-
ma, tendered his resignation to Pres-
ident Boyd aio the board of regents
to take effect ut the close of the pres-
ent school year. Dr. Bynum has a
pood deal of political prominence In
democratic circles in the territory.
He Is a grad,'ate of sevetal American
colleges nnd a Ph. D., from the Uni-
vet slty of B--rlin. He will go to Ep-
worth University at Oklahoma City to
accept the associate presidency of that
Institution.
allow the bill to pass without hi* pro-
posed amendment, but his dt termina-
tion did not wuiver and tht*. togrther
with tho opposition of other Interests,
Is causing a holdup of the statehood
hill until such a time as Senator Bev-
eridge and . the stat< hood pushers
think It safe to allow It to come up
without ruining Its chances.
The great opposition to the Foraker
amendment is the fear that the house
may not concur In it and the bill will
be left In exactly Ihe same shape aa It
was Inst yenr. If the Foraker amend-
ment was ihe only obstacle fearel the
statehood advocates might risk the
chances, but other Interests are feared
and so long as this bugaboo looms
up tho members need not show their
hands.
Representative Hamilton Is quoted
ns privately saying that statehood leg-
islation is doubtful, although In speak-
ing to members of the press he says
he believes It will pass by a small
margin.
It is eertain that by the time the
bill Is reached both sides will be In
readiness to fight and that fight will
be prolonged and bitter.
Delegate from the several territories
are here in the hopes of aiding the
passage of the bill on .the one side
or of defeating It on the other. As
far as their Inlluences have any bear-
ing there might just as well remain
at home. Promises are all they get
here and promises were all they could
expect were they at home. The sep-
aration of the bill so as to allow ac-
tion on the Oklahoma proposition alone
is out of the question as It will not
be done.
President Roosevelt has been report-
ed as saying that a special session will
be called If the statehood question
was not settled at the regular one.

Issues Warning In Divorce Cases
DAVIS: Junge J. E. Dickerson has
issued an order to the members of th6
bar, warning them not to nndertako
to represent non-resident deftndants
in divorce proceedings without giving
the clerk or hls court due notice. It
appears that numerous cases have
been docketed which gives the names
of attorneys who are supposed to rep-
resent non-resident defendants and
when the cases come to trial they
deny any knowledge of the suit. It
has been the practice in numerous
cases, to use the name of any attor-
ney without hls consent and this order
will put a stop to It.
