Guthrie. Okla., Sept. 24.—If condi-
tions at Tulsa during the former
pendency of the cases are to be taken
as a precedent, there will be a gen-
eral pilgrimage of Democratic politi-
cians next week to Ardmore, where
the town lot conspiracy cases against
Governor C. N. Haskell and other
prominent Muskogeeans are set for
trial In the Federal Court on motion
to quash the Indictments.
There are four Indictments, one
against Charles N. Haskell. Clarence
W. Turner and Walter E. Eaton; one
against WtlHam T. Hutchtngs and
Clarence W. Turner; one against
Frederick B. Severs and Albert Z.
English. and one against William T.
Hutchlngs, Clarence W. Turner,
Charles N. Haskell. Walter R. Eaton,
Frederick B. Severs and Albert Z. En
gllsh. All are for hearing on Monday,
Oct. 4th.
Another case of considerable Inter-
est for the same aay Is the contempt
case against William 8tryker, editor
of the Tulsa Democrat. Stryker was
cited for contempt on account of un-
complimentary allusions which he
made In his papers to District Attor-
ney Gregg and the conduct of tbe
prosecuting officers In the Haskell
cases.

Ed R Cook, a prosperous farmer
living four miles north of Cement,
has a new kind of wheat and it Is as
wonderful as It Is new, according to
reports coming to Guthrie friends yes-
terday. Mr. Cook calls It California
wheat, but It Is a new cereal. He
sowed one-quarter acre and harvested
one hundred bushels. It grows very
tall, from ten to twelve feet, and the
stalks look somewhat like cdrn but
are smaller in diameter and the
blades are narrow. Each stalk has a
wide spreading head filled with round
shaped grains. This crop was seven-
ty days In growing and maturing, and
after the heads were taken off there
were forty-two shocks of excellent
fodder on the ground.
The stalks which were cut off with-
in a few inches of the ground are
new sending out buds and In a short
time there will be eood pasture which
will last well Into the winter. Cattle,
horses and hogs will eat this grain
and the fodder In preference to any
other. There Is a marked difference
In hoes that have been fed this grain
and those that have been fed corn.
The wheat fed hogs put on fat much
! faster. But perhaps the greatest
value for this new wheat Is In mak-
ing flour.
It Is almost astonishing how this
plant grows and produces. A test
was made whereby'seven grains were
planted and It produced 11G stalks
with well developed heads, and each
head contained more than ten thou-
sand grains which would make the
yield more than two hundred and
thirty-two grains, or one eraln made
an averace of sixteen stalks. This
was by the method of s'oollng. the
•<ime as oats, rye and other gains.
Oklahoma soil seems to be the place
where this plant thrives and from
demonstrations and tests this Is to >>e
one of the most profitable snd quick*
est crops than can be grown.
Guthrie, Okla., Sept. 24.—A close
question was today put up to Assist-
ant Attorney General E. C. Splllman
for a decision by Ben Franklin, coun-
ty attorney of McClain County.
That county is renting a courV
house and the county has a chance
to purchase a site and building for
a court house on the rental plan, on
payments that would be less than the
rental the county Is now paying. It
would therefore be possible for the
county to buy a court house on the
rental plan and pay for It without
making any additional levy for that
purpose, merely converting the levy
now used for rentals to the new pur-
pose.
County Attorney Franklin Is of the
opinion that under a decision of the
Supreme Court the county commis-
sioners would be authorised to pur-
chase the new court house on the
rental plan without submitting the
matter to a vote of the people for
the reason that no additional levy
need be made. He submits briefs
and asks Assistant Attorney General
Splllman for an opinion.
