Oratory and Logic.
The above tules woro the cause of
ono of the strongest moat Interesting
debates over witnessed In Oklahoma
wlion the senate sitting as a commit-
tee of the whole hist evening con-
siilerud the adoption of rules to govern
that body.
How it Started.
With Senator Hchols In the chair
the clerk reading rapidly but distinct-
ly all was well until Hie live minute
clause of Rule 37 wa read. The de-
bate on rule 31 a to printing Mils
after llrst reading was the commence-
ment of friendly rivalry with Brasell
speaking generally on that topic.
Stanford open ml tho ball by statlug
that he was chairman of the commiUee
on enrolling and engrossing and of-
fered an amendment to rule 31 by In-
serting "the committee have power
to reKrt a bill for printing only when
the committee thought such was
proper
President Pro Tern Johnston op-
Iiosed the fciiiendment and Insisted that
the adoption of the rules as now
printed would be fair to all parties and
expedite matters.
Emergency Question Arises '
Kusaell Roddle Stanford and others
led for the amendment being stopped
by floor leader BUlups who moved a
substitute which he later withdrew
to clarify the final action. Davis ob-
jected to tho phraseology of tho
amendment but thought It had points
In Its fuvor.
As Uie emergency question was
used by tho majority of tho spankers
for and against the amondmout Kus-
sel brought upplause by declaring
"the big emergency before us Is to
make careful and honost consideration
of each measure before us for consid-
eration.'' Mathews feared the amendment
would mean a lobby to print bills In
the place of effort to have them acted
uon In a flu el manner
Stanford explained his Idea was that
where so many bills of a like nature
ffl'COMB EXPECTS
Referring to Insurance Companies Brrred From State-
Attorney General Withdraws Petition for Receiver.
State Insurance ConimUstonsr T. J.
McCorab in responding to a question
in regard to the alleged movement
started by ofrteer of the Bankers Life
i la t loo of Das Moines Iowa to
8gh4 his recent order to them to cease
doing business in Oklahoma said;
"Ye 1 expect them to howt; 1 am
here to enforce the law and will put
any company out of business which
does not meet wltsi the requirements
'or our law. The talk that the Bankers
Life puts up About It being a job. Is
all rot. As I do not allow the old line
companies any favors and am going
to put aonie of their oosHWntee out ol
li thiess in this sta a elwrtly. It shows
o ucluslvoly that their argument Is
unfounded. I don! care whet kind
of a company they are whether they
lx fraternal old line independent
(; any other kind I will put tbm
ll out if I find hat they are not
obeying the law.
Withdrew Petition For Reeelwcr.
Attorney General West hu evenlug
withdrew Ilia petition filed . In the
supreme court yesterday afternoon
asking that a receiver bo appointed
lor the Owens-Don ley pipe line which
it I- alleged has formed a combine
were before the committee It could
simplify matters by reporting out one
measure printing It to the advantage
of having all the senators know the
content section by section.
An Amendment by Davis.
Graham noddle and Franklin came
to the assistance of those favoring the
adoption of the rule as printed Rod-
die moving to table. At the same time
Davis backed an amendment to the
plan of Stanford. Stanford accepted
the change of Davis who won unani-
mous consent to classify the measure
as rule 31 A and It prevailed in sub-
stance allowing tlie committee on en-
rolling and engrossing to bring out
bills for printing if Uioy think ad-
visable subject to the action of the
Senate as s tyody.
Cunningham moved that Rule II be
amended to that three members could
have a measure placed on the calendar
for amendment but failed to receive
a second.
' The Unlimited Speeches.
The real work commenced when
Sorrels asked that Rube 37 where Are
minutes was allowed for -speech and
one hour for the entire body be so
amended that the debate would 'give
each member an opportunity to speak
longer and broader lines of general
debate lie given. lie moved that "one
hour" be stricken from the rule.
President Johnson opposed. lie
cited authorities galore wherein there
had to be a cessation of speech and
a beginning of work appealing to his
colleagues not to permit a minority to
hold up a majority with unlimited do-
nate as had been the case in many
bodies.
Cunningham declared his motion In
the formerdtscusslon was due to uie
fact that he wanted every member of
the body to have to record his vote
and give his reasons why. He was em-
phatic and waB a surprise to those
desiring the rule amended.
Roddle Points Out Bad Feature.
Roddle came to the support of those
desiring the amendment; declaring
'the one hour clause and the live min-
ute limitation would oblige many to
vote for a measure with bad sections
because they could have no oppor-
tunity to explain their disapproval of
the bad sections.
Russell followed along the same line
of debate as Roddle.
Johnson defended his position ex-
plaining In detail how all were given
opportunities prior to the last reading
to make amendments mid olfer objec-
tions further showing that the consti-
tutional conventions of New York and
Oklahoma had used tile sflnie rule as
had been offered to the senate by
the committee.
Agee Hrownlee and Johnson weie
agreed with Sorrels and his amend-
ment. Eggerman Supports Committee.
Kggerman wade a Judicial address
supporting President Johnson and his
committee followed by Sorrels who
denied any Intention or doing more
than wishing to provide for a full and
olfear dtebBte. stating "with Senior
Agee I fear not to go on record ami
want other to do likewise." Roddle
grew eloquent in his support of the
amendment Insisting failure to pass
it vould rob the members of their
rights and make the senate a mere
machine. Ih also declared! his Idea
in supporting Uie amendment was to
knock out Rule 38.
At tills juncture Little moved post-
ponement ef action until Rule 38 could
be disposed of and his motion pre-
vailed Russell Moves Elimination.
Russell moved that Rule 38 be elim-
inated and the debate was lead again
by the president pro leni. who declared
tho elimination of the nne would per-
mit a minority to block legislation.
"I have no personal Interest In the
rule" said Johnston "savo that lt
ono recognized as good for all legis-
lative bodies. It Is tine work of the
famous Rufus Choate admitted good
by Klihu Root and was used by the
constitutional conventions of New
York and Oklahoma and It will aid
us In work: save us from having the
house to do more tlian Its share of the
work and it is fair to all."
Davis and Hatchett to the Rescue.
Roddle admitted Johnston meant
well but declared the rule permitted
a coward to dodge and ho wanted all

SCHOOL BOARD RUNNING
THINGS WITH HIGH HAND
The Guthrie school board Is not
making a record for economy. This
isevidenced by the fact that but 32
eclored pupils are enrolled at Lincoln
school and 9 teachers employed an
instructor for ten pupils. In the
Capitol Hill school HO pupils are en-
rolled and 6 teachers employed. In
the face of this wanton extravagance
the school board complains that it has
no money for improvements.
