homa City were alsojnembers of the
arbitration party.' '
All three of these gentlemen are
candidates ior the? name position
and tho conferenco was held for the
purposo of comparing strength and
tho elimination of two of them. Each
cla.'ms a substantial number of
pledges from democratic members
enough If combined on ono of the
candidates will be more than suffi-
cient to organize the lower houfyi of
the legislature and defeat Murray
Gibbons tho Walton favorite.
Statement Monday.
No Information could be obtained
from any of those present as to what
agreement was reached further than
that a formal statement will bo Is-

ton organization of the lower house
and It is understood that Stovall Is
In full abcord with them In this po-
sition. Disney denies that ho Is
against Walton or that he seeks the
leadership of the anti-league forces
In tho house as forecast several days
ago In The World but It is said that
Disney had an Interview with Walton
shortly after the election In the In-
terest of his candidacy for the
speakership and that Walton then
Informed him that Gibbons was his
rhoice. Disney is .alleged to have
laid down a defiance at tho termina-
tion of the Interview declaring to
the newly elected governor that he
would win the speakership without
the executive sanction.
Dortor Long a few days ago an-
nounced his opposition to the entire
reconstruction program favored by
tho new gpvernor and he claims to
have at least 21 votes pledged to his
randidacy two more than is credited
to Disney. Stovall's positive pledges
a-p slightly less than Disney's Mur-
ray Gibbons the governor's candi-
dal Is credited with about 38
pie Iged votes.

$293000538 will bo appropriated

DISNEY'S FIGHT
NOT ON WALTON
Muskogee Man in Tulsa
Objects Solely to
Clique Rule
FOR OWN PLATFORM
Says Democrats in 'Legisla-
ture Must Take Full Chargo
of State Matters
Replying to a statement Issued by
Aldrlch Blake secretary to Governor-
Klect Walton Tuesday W. 13. Disney
ofAMuskogeo candldato for speaker
of the house who was In Tulna
Wednesday said "the languago of
my statement a few days ago Is not
susceptible of the Interpretation
which Mr. Blake has placed upon It.
I am not In any sense one of Gov
ernor Walton's political enemies
neither nm I speaking for them On
tho contrnry. T am his friend and
am anxious to co-operate with him
In carrying out the democratic
platform." Continuing Mr. Disney
said. "
"My desire to keep tho govern-
ment in tho hands of tho democratic
officers to whom its control was
given by tho people in November
carries with it no unfriendliness to
Governor Walton. In my opinion ho
will find as a matter of fact that
the democrats who are elected with
him who perform the duties of tho
state government and who must suc
ceed or rail with him win prove nis
most genuine and most rellablo
frlenda
Objects to Coercion.
The statement of Mr. Miller man-
ager of tho reconstruction league
shows again tho spirit of universal
domination to which I objected In
my statement. I do not understand
where that political organization he-
comes authorized to speak for the
farmers. The real farmers have a
nonpolltlcal organization nlmllar In
Its nature and nurposca. to the bank
ers association the bar association
and other occupational associations
to which Mr. Miller refers. That
organization has represented the
farmers well in past legislations una
hns nlwava had then co-operation of
democratic members of the legisla-
ture myself included. It Is now well
officered has no purpose to serve
oxcept the welfare of tho farmer and
haH a deflnlto legislative program.
"I cannot see how tho mere as-
sumption of the farmer name by the
radical politicians who organized the
hyphenated league supplanted the
farmers union as the representative
of tho farming industry. Jut as I
.in nnt bellevo they have acquired
any right whatever to tell the senate
whom tney must eiect as secreuirj
or tho houso whom it must elect for
speaker or the govornor wnai
tniiat .in in the matter of appoint
ments or tho exercise of his oflclal
Influence.
It Is not necesaary to discuss the
question of financial extravagancoH
In tho league program. Ideas differ
nd to what constitutes extravagance.
Anyone who is laminar wim mo
published plans of the league and
who has watched the general pro-
gram as It begins to develop into
concrete proposals can draw his own
conclusions.
Democrats Huvo Choice.
My Idea and my purpoio Is mere-
ly this. "We have with us this ag-
gregation of politicians who without
any legal authority aspire to the
complete control of tho stato gov-
ernment. The elected democrat cun
either lie supinely down and permit
them without opposition to hoIzo this
control trusting to the future to
save tho stau In some miraculous
way from the injuries which are
certnlnf follow that control or IU
ran prevent thut damage now by
merely cxci rising their prerogative

WASHINGTON Dec. 13. Bamuol
Oomperw president of tho American
Federation of Iwbor frankly told
tho house Judiciary committee to-
day that tho executive commlttoo of
the federation had authorized tho
employment of counsel to assist
Representative Keller republican
Minnesota In prosecuting Impeach-
ment proceedings against Attorney-
General Daughcrty.
Didn't Start Impeachment.
Mr. Gompers' stntcmcnt wni undo
In tho courso of cross-examination
by I'aul Huwland of Cleveland per-
sonal counsel for Mr. Daughcrty.
Ho emphatically denied that ho had
first suggested tho impeachment
proceeding" declaring that ho had
not known ot thu Introduction of
the Keller resolution in the house
until he read about It In tho news
papers-
At tho outset of his testimony Mr.
Gompers culled oa a witness for tho
prosecution told or ins visit to Mr.
Daughcrty In July. 1921 at tho tat
ter's invitation at wnicn tue ap-
pointment of W. J IluriiH as chlof
of tho bureau of Investigation of
tho department of Justice was dis-
cussed. The witness said hn hnd shown
Mr. Daughcrty a copy of tho ro-
port mudo In 1912 by Attorney-Oon-eral
Wlckcrsham to President Taft
on Burns' alleged activities In the
drawing of a jury In tho Oregon
land fraud cases In 1905 and
Mr. Daughcrty had cqmparnd It with
ono brought to him by n. depart-
mental clerk.
"I told Mr. Daughorty." Mr. Goni-
pors testified "that It would bo a
publlo scandal una bring discredit
to the department and thu govern-
ment of tho United States If any
such man wno appointed to as Im-
portant a position as was proposod
for Burns and that aa a man and a
citizen I protested against It."

George W. Wlckcrsham attorney-
general under President Taft who
followed Mr Gompers denied that
politics had entered Into tho par-
doning of Wlllard N. Jones con-
victed in the Oregon land Sraiid
causes.
Tho former attornoy-genoral said
he "ii'oontcd" any suggestion that
President Tnft was moved by po-
litical considerations. As to his own
rocommendntlon that Jones bo par-
doned the witness said It was
based enloly on tho official roports
In tho case alleging Improper activi-
ties by Mr.. Burns In connection with
tho drawing of the trial Jury.
Chairman McChord of the Inter-
state commerco commission was
called to testify concerning enforce-
ment of the safety laws applicable
to railroad equipment during tho
six months beginning June this year.
Some roads he said had been un-
able to keop abreast of their repair
work particularly during August
and were compelled to use loromo-
tives without the full Inspection re-
quired by the federal statutes.
Mr. Keller's counsel argued that
Mr. Daughorty could have gone Into
a court of equity to obtain an In-
junction compelling tho railroads to
observe the laws just as he had gone
Into court and obtained art Injunc-
tion against the strikers.
Detailed reports as to the condi-
tion of railroad locomotives from

were presented to the committee by
by Mr. McChord.

Clomonccau the Tiger of Franco
symbolized the dovo of peace when
he sailed for home Just beforo noon
today on the liner Paris. He do
clarod against further occupation of
Germany by French trooi saying
that "no real Frenchman wnnm to

Many Women Sob.
Whether or not M. Clemenceau
was eiuccesxful In bis patriotic efforts
to draw Franco nnd America closer
togother In International friendship
thero was nn doubt about his own
personal popularity as a vast throng
of Americans and French residents
crammed the French liner pier
choerlng shouting faruwella and
waving 1) a in and handkerchief.
Women overcome by emotion

Tremendous Importance was at
tached to nn exclusive statement on
French policy made by M. Clemen
coau to the International News Herv
lea Just before he sailed. The for
mer premier who Is still a power
In French politics said.'
"I do not want to eeo the French
army go into tho Iluhr. I fear the
consenuonrcti of nuch a movo. I am
afraid of the effect of such occupa-
tion upon the German democracy
already bearing a heavy burden and
having a hard struggle with the
Junkers. No leal Frenchman wants
to annex a loot or liertnau tern
tory."
Opposite to Polncnre.
Clemonceau's dictum Is Just tho
opposite to the present policy of
Premier Polncaro who Is Instating
upon military occupation of the Ger-
mnn Ituhr.
M. Clemenceau received the fol-
lowing tolegrnm of farewell from
former Presldont Wilson his old
peace conference colleague:
"Allow me to bid you nn affec-
tlmiato farewell and to congratulatu
you on the admiration you have won

M. Clcmenrenu sent tho following

"I cannot bo but most grateful for

enough to send to me. j our feel-
