PKDDIiKD EXAMINATION'

\ -
Foxy Colored School Teachers ('aught
With the Goods—Sold Question.
Lists at Ten Dollars Per.
Some of the colored school teach-
ers of Lincoln, Logan and Oklahoma
counties, now attending normal at
Chandler, will sure wear a surprised
expression upon their countenances
when they are handed the lists of. 3pirited citizens who donate the
,h“ examina- Ea(;h br,ck plBced ln the
permanent home for the Oklahoma
Historical Society on the capital
grounds. The cost to transport the
brick would be greater than they
would be worth. It is also a fact
that exhibit buildings at world’s
fairs are constructed of staff and
temporary material. The use of the
brick in the Historical building gives
them a permanent value and makes
a perpetual monument in the way of
a useful public building to the pub-
questions in the teachers’ examina-
tion. It will be a case of “there’s
many a slip ’twix cup and lip.” It
all happened this way:
A few days ego County Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction P. G. Raw-
don was advised that certain parties
had secured a list of the questions
for the teachers' examination (for
separate school teachers), had made
copies and were selling these copies
to prospective teachers at the mod-
est sum of $10.00 per list. It is re-
ported that several lists had been
disposed of up until the first of this
w'eek.
Supt. Rawdon immediately took
steps to prove the truth of the rumor
and by a neat little piece of detective
work soon had possession of one of
the lists—at the regular price. Once
sure of the matter he notified the
state superintendent and within a
fewf hours a local print shop was
grinding out entirely new and diff-
erent lists of questions.
According to the evidence now in
the possession of the county super-
intendent tw'o very prominent male
(colored) teachers of Lincoln county
are the guilty ones. One of these has
figured more or less prominently in
county politics, the same fellow’ who
was entertained for a couple nights
last campaign at democratic head-
building will bear the name of the
contributor. The bricks will be sold
at five dollars each. It was first sug-
gested and newspapers carried the
story that they be sold at a dollar
each, but it would require too great
an effort to sell the required number
and the expense of selling deducted
would leave the commission without
sufficient funds to complete the work.
JEFF. DA VI8 LICKED AGAIN.
Pawnee, Okla., June 21.—Jeff
Davis, formerly of Mississippi, but
now a resident of Chandler, Okla.,
and who ‘also ran’’ against McGuire
last fall for congress, was literally
wiped off of the face of the earth by
McGuire at Pawnee today where evi-
dence was being taken by McGuire
in answer to the bogus contest filed
against him by Davis. Some time
ago Davis and his attorneys took evi-
dence at Pawnee attempting to show
that McGuire w'as not a resident of
Pawnee. None swore that McGuire
was not a resident of Pawnee, but
they did swear that they had heard
it rumored that McGuire did not live
at Pawnee. The county judge of
Pawnee county swore that he had
heard it rumored Evidence was
... ____ taken before a notary public and the
quarters, at which time it is supposed I county judge’s stenograhper took the
that he sold out certain republicans, j evidence. The proprietor of one of
He will not get just what is coming j the hotels swore that McGuire had
to him. His certificate as a teacher j registered at his hotel many times as
will be revoked and Lincoln county j Bird McGuire. Paw nee, Okla. When
will become altogether too warm for ; the typewritten evidence was exam-
ined by McGuire it was found that
the stenographer had failed to tran-
scribe the testimony correctly in that
she simply wrote Bird McGuire,
omitting the words Pawnee, Okla.
This error upon the part of the steno-
grapher was so evident that she was
called upon the stand by McGuire,
upon direct examination she stated
that she was so rushed in transcrib-
ing that she omitted Pawnee. Okla.
When asked to produce her notes she
said the note book is not in the of-
fice but at home, she was sent home
after the note book and as she came
into the door of the court room with
the note book she looked up to Col.
Roy Hoffman, attorney for Davis and
exclaimed. “I made a mistake.’’ Her
La.uc, wi me 4wuuuuH, lulo notes showed that she had taken the
town’s annual sport revival, celebrat- j landlord's testimony "Bird McGuire,
ed his birthday this week by grad- Pawnee. Okla ” It is not probable
ing and oiling a block of street in that Davis or his attorneys knew of
the center of the city The good I this omission but there is a strong
roads spiri-t spread like measles j belief among McGuire s friends in
among kids, and the city council Pawnee that it was done to injure
this gentleman of color
Just w'here the original list was
secured is a matter of conjecture,
though it is supposed that th^re was
a leak in the printing office (not in
Lincoln county) where the lists were
printed. It is supposed, also, that
certain colored teachers in every
county in the state, where there are
separate schools, have been supplied
with the List and are disposing of
copies to applicants for certificates.
Perhaps there is a man ‘ higher up”
and. if there is, something is pretty
apt to happen to him

BRICKS VI $.’> OO 1*1 R.
Oklahoma City, June 2 4.—Some
confiicting statements have been pub-
lished concerning the method of pro-
ceedure in the raising of the funds
for the Oklahoma building at the
Panama Exposition and selling of the
brick for the purpose. In order to
give the public a definite idea of the
program the following statement is
made The bricks are furnished free
of charge by the Oklahoma Cleveland
Vitrified Brick company This com-
pany agreed to furnish the commis-
sion fifty thousand or as many as
would he necessary. They realize the
advertising advantage and are taking
the opportunity to advertise an Ok-
lahoma product. The brick will be
stamped with the name of each pur-
chaser Instead of the brick being
sent to Han Francisco where they
would have only a temporary inter-
est, they will be used to construct a
him.
When the news spread about that
Mr McGuire was to take testimony
iu answer to the Davis contest on a
certain date 300 men irregardless of
politics came to McGuire and wanted
to go on the stand in his behalf.
Owing to the limited time allowed
in taking testimony only a few' were
put on the stand to swear as to Mc-
Guire being a resident of Pawnee,
those who did swear ridiculed the
charge that McGuire was not a fel-
low townsman Bird McGuire has
grown from early manhood to one of
the great men of the American con-
gress right in Pawnee, he was a suc-
cessful young lawyer in Pawuee.
President McKinley’s attention was
called to his unusual ability as a
criminal prosecutor and he appointed
him assistant United States district
attorney. No man ever made a bet-
ter record in that position and the
records show today that he sent more
horse thieves and bootleggers to the
pen than any man in the country. All
that he is. all that he accomplished
he owes to his loyal and true friends
at Pawnee and when Davis charges
that he is not a resident of Pawnee
it is a joke to them as is the whole
contest It is openly charged in
PAwnee that if congress did not allow
$2000 for contest fees that Davis
would never have started the con-
test.
Davis has gone about over the
First congressional district with his
two-by-four press agent and tells the
people that he will beat McGuire and
be seated He has made an endorse-
ment in every case that has come
before him for everything from a
fourth-class postofflee to minister to
the court of St James, in this man-
ner he has i4>een able to get a little
evidence from candidates for post-
offices and other appointments He
has not yet been told that if con-
gress should declare McGuire's seat
vacant that he would not get to fill
it for if congress declares a vacancy
Davis could not get the place but a
new election would have to be held
Davis is having about as much luck
witb^us congressional aspirations as
his iimstrious name sake had when
he attempted to secede

MILITIA COMING IN JULY.
Promises To Be the Biggest and Best
Encampment Ever Held in Okla-
homa—Several New Organizations
Coining.
The entire Oklahoma national
guard will be ordered to report on
the state encampment grounds at
Chandler on July 27 for fifteen days'
maneuvers and work at the targets
on the state rifle range.
The guard, this year, will contain
several new organizations, unless
present plans miscarry. In addition
to the regiment of infantry, the med-
ical. signal and engineer corps and
the band, orders have been issued
for the organization of a troop of
I cavalry. The headquarters of this
'troop will be at Okemah and Gen.
1 Alva Niles, one of the best known and
jiuost efficient militiamen in the state,
will have command. The selection
of Gen. Niles for this command is a
i compliment to the f oresight of Adpt.
j Gen. Canton. Niles ill make good.
' The addition of the ivalry to the
(regular force of arms v Ml swell the
; membership of the guard, now that
each command has been enlisted to
capacity, to over a thousand men,
w hile, but the pleasure and character
of a recreation in military work is
such that can not be obtained in
any other way. Every man in Ok-
fuskee county who is eligible to mem-
bership whether he liv'es in town or
on the farm, is iuvited to attend the
meeting to which your attention has
been called and become a charter
member. The plan of organization
and service theru^> will be fully ex-

Oklahoma for the purpose of being
present while testimony is being tak-
en in the contest case w’hioh has
been filed against him by J. J. Davis,
of Chandler. The Davis people only
recently completed their testimony.
They should have finished months
ago, but asked for more time and
Mr. McGuire granted them as much
as they wanted. Just as soon as he
received notice that they had finish
and new feature to the encampment.
In addition to the work of solving
army problems and maneuvers, ex-
tra time will this year be put in upon
the rifle range. It is the wish of
General Canton and his brother of-
ficers to send a crack rifle team to
the national shoot.

meeting at which the preliminary
work of organizing will be started,
has been called to meet at the dis-
trict court room, Wednesday evening,
June 25, at 8 o’clock p. m., at which
time every man eligible to member-
ship is requested to be present.
To be eligible to enlistment you
must be between the age of 18 and
45 years. Also, each man will be
expected to furnish his own horse
when on duty at drills and encamp-
ments. The government will fur-
nish all equipment for this organiza-
tion without cost to the members or I
the state. The equipment will be
new and of the latest regulation ex- j
actly as is now used to equip the |
cavalry of the United States army.
The term of enlistment will be for I
three years. The conditions of en-
listment, however, are different from
that of the regular army in that a
man enlisted in this cavalry organ-
ization can secure his discharge there-
from before the expiration of the
three years for the following rea-
sons: Disability, change of residence
or when his duty therein interferes
with his business
Provisions aw also made by the
government for an armory or head-
quarters here at Okemah which will
be large enough, not only for the
proper care of the fine equipment
that will be furnished, hut for a
reading room, gymnasium, etc.
Every young man in Okfuskee
county should feel a keen interest in
this organization, as membership
therein will not only c >nfer upon a
man a distinction that is well worth
any place else fils home and
never voted at any other place.
It is thought that the case can
closed and all the testimony will
in before the first of July.

ij ’•«. vv.«..w j--o .routes, which necessitates a re-print,
rnent he has show n in the selection j The following dispatch from Sparks
to the News-Publicist gives the gist
of the story:
"Sparks, Okla . June 20.—After
going to his wife in church and warn-
ing her not to allow Sam Huggins
to accompany her home, J. A
Reames, a mail carrier out of Sparks,
went outside of the Pleasant Grove
school house Thursday night about
10 o’clock and as his wife and Hug-
gins together came from the church,
fired tw’o shots into Huggins, from
the effect of which he died almost
instantly. «
“Reames and hi* wifo had net
lived together [qx nearly a year, and
*TTs. Reames was suing him for di-
vorce. *
“It is said that Reames had heard
that his wife and Huggins would at-
tend church together Thursday night,
and wrote to both warning them that
trouble would follow’ Mrs. Reames
and Huggins attended the church,
however, and during services sat
across the aisle from R ames. Short-
ly before the services ended Reames
went to them and delivered the last
warning to Mrs. Reames.
‘Following the shooting Reames
went to (’handler and surrendered to
the authorities, and is lodged in jail.”
