Oklahoma Troops Are Ready
;iv;
S^' ..
Thirteen companies of the state militia have assembled at their
armories to await the oOcial call to mobilise for service on the Mex-
ican border.
A message came from the war department at Washington to Gov-
ernor Williams, ordering him to mobilise the Oklahoma national guard
at Chandler for recruiting and to be in readiness for further calls.
As commander-in-chief of the Oklahoma militia Governor Williams
transmitted the order to Adjutant General Canton and instructed him
to carry It out.
The unofficial word had already spread and the men were hurry-
ing to the armories before official orders arrived. The railroads began
assembling equipment at the proper points at once.
In all tho armories there was bustling and activity, packing equip-
ment. At Oklahoma City, a number of officers and men were held
In readlnesa by General Canton to assist in preparing for shipment the
equipment stored in the adjutant general’s department. This consists
of clothing, bedding, tents, twenty-four escort wagons and between
75,000 and 100,000 rounds of ammunition. It will require about four-
teen cars to transport these.

His Lines East, West
and South.
Washington, D. C.—Virtually the
entire mobile strength of the national
guard of all states and the District of
Columbia is ordered mustered into the
federal service by President Wilson.
About one hundred thousand men are
expected to respond to the call. They
will be mobilized immediately for such
service on the Mexican border as later
may be assigned to them.
General Frederick Funston, com-
manding the border forces, will desig-
nate the time and place for move-
ments of guardsmen to the interna-
tional line as the occasion shall re-
quire.
Patrol Work Only.
In announcing the orders, Secretary
Baker said the state forces would be
employed only to guard the border
and that no additional troop move-
ments into Mexico were contemplated.
Simultaneously with the national
guard call, Secretary Daniels of the
navy department, ordered additional
war vessels to Mexican waters on both
coasts to safeguard American lives.
No New Advices.
At the war, navy and state depart-
ments it was stated that no new ad-
vices as to the situation in Mexico
had come to precipitate the new or-
ders.
Within the last two weeks, however,
tension has been increasing steadily.
The crisis presented by General Car-
ranza’s note demanding the recall of
General Pershing’s expeditionary force
has been followed by a virtual ulti-
matum served on the American offi-
cer by General Trevino, the Mexican
commander in Chihuahua. Trevino
forbid Pershing moving further east,
west or south. To this was added the
possibility that American and Mexi-
can troops had clashed across the bor-
der from San Benito, Texas.
Relief Over Return.
Administration officials made no at-
termt to conceal their relief for the
safe return of Major Anderson’s cav-
alry squadron to Brownsville, after
their successful bandit chase. The
troopers crossed in pursuit of bandits
In the face of intimations that they
would be attacked if they did so. Gen-
eral Funston himself reported that he
anticipated fighting, presumably with
Carranza troops.
Mobilization of the national guards-
men to support General Funston’s
line will pave the way to the release
of some 30,000 regulars for immediate
service in Mexico in the event of open
hostilities with the Carranza govern-
ment. The guardsmen themselves
could not be used beyond the line
without authority of congress and un-
til they had volunteered for that duty,
as they are called out under the old
militia law. The new law, which

Forces Now at Border.
The entire mobile regular army It
the United States, several provisional
regiments of regular coast artillery
serving as infantry and the national
guard of Texas, New Mexico and Ari-
zona, now are on the border or in Mex-
ico. Definite figures have never been
made public, but it is understood Gen-
eral Funston has above 40,000 regu
Jars and probably 5,000 or more
guardsmen, of whom 10,000 regulars
are with General Pershing or scat-
tered along his line of communications
from Namlquipa, Mexico, to Columbus,
N. M.
1,148 Companies Called.
By the new orders there will be
placed at General Funston’s disposal
two major generals and twenty-one
brigadier generals of militia, with
their complete infantry commands.
The entire Infantry divisions from
New York and Pennsylvania are called
out, as are fifteen full brigades from
other states. In all eighty-eight regi-
ments of infantry with thirteen sep-
arate battalions and many separate
companies are affected, giving a total
of 1,148 companies, each of which must
have a minimum strength of sixtyflve
men when mustered into the federal
service. The total enlisted force of
infantry, therefore, would be not less
than 85,000 men.
Less than 500 companies, scattered
throughout the country, will not be
mustered, and the national guard coast
artillery companies have not been
summoned. All of the field artillery,
cavalry, engineer and signal troops
will be employed, as will many of the
militia field hospitals and ambulance
companies. The war department has
on hand ample equipment and cloth-
ing to outfit and maintain this force.
Field Artillery.
The call applies to seventy-nine bat-
teries of field artillery, ninety-nine
troops of cavalry and one New York
cavalry machine gun troop; twenty-
five engineer companies and twenty-
nine signal companies, all with full
equipment already issued to them.
Twenty-six ambulance companies and
twenty-seven field hospitals also have
been ordered made ready for entrain-
ing.
No indication was given at the state
department of the course to be pur-
sued with regard to the reply to Gen-
eral Carranza’s note demanding the
withdrawal of the American troops
now in Mexico, ft was prepared last
week by Secretary Lansing and is still
in President Wilson’s hands. It had
been intended to dispatch it to Mex-
ico City by special messenger, but re-
cent developments may change this
plan.
MEXICAN BANDITS AGAIN
CROSS BORDER LINE
San Antonio, Texas.—Luis De La
Rosa made good his threat to raid the
border when 100 of his men attacked
a small detachment of the Fourteenth
American cavalry at San Ignacio,
forty miles southeast of Laredo. His
action cost him eight men killed, sev-
eral wounded and many horses and
equipment. The American loss was
three killed and six wounded.
Major Alonzo Grey is using every
man of his little command in a sweep-
ing search of the country about San
Ignacio for a hot tidal. If it is dis-
covered a third “punitive expedition’’
will enter Mexico, but at department
headquarters General Funston and
his staff have little hope that Major
Gray will be able to get into touch
with the band.
The first shot by the attacking
party was at the corporal of the
guard at 2 a. m. For thirty minutes,
according to a report made by Major
Gray to General Mann at Laredo and
by him transmitted to General Funs-
ton a brisk engagement ensued. There
were not more than eighty Americans
In the camp.
Will Ask Withdrawal.
Laredo, Texas.—Prominent Amerl
can merchants plan to hold a meeting
in St. Louis in the near future to pre
pare a petition to President Wilson
asking that the American puntive ex
pedition be withdrawn from Mexico,
according to a local Spanish news
paper. The newspaper points out that
since the trouble started In Mexico
American merchants have suffered a
financial loss of more than 350,000,000
Withdrawal of the troops would tend
to pacify the situation.

many things to devil their instructor,
were sent to the basement for pun-
ishment the morning of February 9.
Professor McDarment followed for a
conference with the boys regarding
discipline. At noon he rushed from
the conference where shots have been
heard, crying out:
“They tried to murder me in there."
Watts was dead and Moss shot
through the head. The latter recov-
ered and was the state’s star witness
against McDarment.
The jury took only two ballots; the
first stood 10 to 2 for acquittal and
the second was a verdict.

GAME PRESERVE IS ORGANIZED
Oklahoma City Sportsmen To Raise
Their Own Quail.
Alva.—A party of Oklahoma sports-
men, headed by James R. Cottingham,
general attorney of the Santa Fe rail-
road, and R. E. Stafford, has taken a
lease on the ranch of Ben Hennessey,
In northern Blaine county for use as a
private game reserve.
Hennessey was formerly secretary
of the Oklahoma state board of agri-
culture and following his retirement
from office engaged in the ranching
business In the canyons north of Wt-
tonga. He has accumulated several
thousand acres of land which are al-
ready well stocked with quail.
It is the intention of the new asso-
ciation to build up a private hunt-
ing preserve and supplement the game
already there by extensive propaga-
tion.
Owen For President In 1920.
St. Louis.—Senator Owen of Okla-
homa will be a candidate for the dem-
ocratic nomination as president in
1920, unless unforeseen circumstances
make impossible the presentation of
his name. Announcement to this ef-
fect was made by Morton Rutherford,
chairman of the Oklahoma delegation,
as he formally issued a statement to
the effect that Oklahoa would not pre-
sent his name as a candidate for the
vice presidency to succeed Thomas
R. Marshall.
Tulsa.—Clearings in the banks of
Tulsa for the week ending June 14
showed a decrease of almost $1,000,00C
from last week but still maintained a
mark that probably will not be equaled
by the banks of any other city in the
state, both in volume and in percent-
age of increase over the clearings oi
the corresponding week last year.
During the past six days the busi-
ness transacted has amounted to $3,-
945,130, whereas the volume of clear-
ings last week showed business rtan-
sa/ctions of almost $5,000,000. The
clearings for the corresponding week
In 1915, however, were but $1,633,831
or a gain for the week of the present
year of 141.4 per cent.
Ban On Soap Box Oratory.
Chickasha.—Mayor Coffman has Is-
sued a decree that in the future no
one will be allowed to stop on Chick-
asha avenue, the main street of the
town, for the purpose of making
speeches on religious or political
questions. In the past, speakers of all
kinds have been making Chickasha
avenue the principal point from which
views of all kinds were aired at all
times of the day, stopping traffic to a
great extent, but the mayor now de-
clares this is a thing of the past and
will not be tolerated in the future.
Two Thousand Men To Harvest.
Oklahoma City—Two thousand men
are needed In the northwest part of
the state to harvest the wheat crop,
according to a telephone message to
the state labor department from Labor
Commissioner W. G. Ashton, who Is
in the wheat belt personally looking
after the situation. The four employ-
ment bureaus have been notified to
send harvest hands to that section to
supply the demands.
Old Romance Revived.
Alva.—Rev. C. B. Parkhurst, former
representative from Alfalfa county in
the state legislature, now a minister
at Amorita, has married Mrs. Mary J.
Knowles, in East St. Louis, after a
separation of forty-seven years. They
were engaged to be married in 1869
but the engagement was annulled and
they moved to different parts of the
United States. They married other
sweethearts and raised families but
both have become widowed through
death of the respective husband and
wife.
Aged Women Murdered.
Enid.—Mrs. Mary Giles, aged 84,
i was found dead at her residence three
miles from town where she had lived
by herself for some time. A bullet
wound in her chin and another in her
throat which were evidently fired at
I a short range caused her death. Sher-
iff Hume’s investigation indicated that
it was a case of murder, not suicide,
as there was no revolver found any-
where about the house. Robbery was
apparently the motive although noth-
ing appeared to be disturbed; the
house being in good order.
Fair Crops In Rogers County.
Claremore.—The recent heavy rains
are retarding the work of the farmers
in the section of Rogers county to a
great extent. Wheat, while the acre-
age is comparatively small, owing to
freezing during the cold winter
months, is stooling out and promises
a yield of from eight to fifteen bushels
per acre, and will be of fairly good
quality.
Biggest Gasser At Choteau.
Choteau.—The largest gas well In
the state is that of the Grand River
Gas Company, in the northeast corner
of the northeast quarter of the south-
west quarter of the northeast quarter
of section 19-20-19. It is only 307 feet
deep and making 70,000,000 feet.
Chance To Be An Admiral.
Oklahoma City.—Senator T. P.
Gore invites young men from 16 to
21 years old who seek to enter the
Annapolis Naval Academy to notify
him. They will be allowed to compete
for appointment as alternates.
Pay your automobile lax quick or
you will be arrested and fined $50
for violating a state law.
That is l lie substance of the final
warning issued from the stale high-
way department lo owners of automo-
biles who have not yet secured their
1916 license lags. It is estimated by
tin* department that there are tit least
10.000 automobile owners in tho state
who are delinquent In the payment
of their slate tax.
Agents to Scour State.
Every automobile owner who lias
not paid his tax is now subject to
arrest and u fine of $50. The proceeds
from the fine will go re the county in
which tlie arrest is made. In addi-
tion the automobile owner will lie re-
quired to pay Ills tnx. Agents from
tlie highway department are being
lent out over the state to assist coun-
y authorities in rounding up the de-
linquents.
Again In November.
The law requires that the tax be
paid by January 1 of every year, and
‘t is now planned by the highway de-
partment to begin the collection of
lie 1917 tax early in November and
have it completed by tne first of the
year.
A statement covering the work of
;he department since its reorganiza-
tion under the present law and the

piled by Commissioner Noble. It
shows that from May 1, 1915, up to
May 31 of this year tho department

Flag Day Observed.
Flag Day, set aside some time ago
in proclamations by Governor Wil-
liams and Mayor Overholser was ob-
served appropriately in Oklahoma
City. Numerous mercantile establish-
ments featured "Old Glory’’ in their
window decorations and in residence
sections America’s national emblem
was lavishly displayed. At noon of-

Indian Tee Nett Cewetltwtlenel,
©klahdm»5s riom production tat 1
law was declared unconstitutional la»
ao far as It applies to Osaae end de* >
part mental oil and gas leases in a de*
Clslon handed down In federal district
court bjr Judge Cotteral. The law waa
passed by the specially convened state
legislature last February,
The decision carriee with It tem*
pornry Injunctions against E. II. How*
ard, stato auditor, and Sheriff Freas
of Osage county. The former is en*
Joined from levying on the property
of tlie Barnsdull, Indian Territory Il-
luminating, Okla and Gypsy oil com-
panies in Osage county and on de*
partmentnl leases, under the terms of
tho state law. The latter is regained
from serving tax notices.
Judge Cotteral gave S. P. Freellng,
attorney general, ton days in which to
file briefs. It is thought the state will
appeal the decision to the circuit
court of appeals.
The gross production tax law was
declared unconstitutional after Judge
Youmnns of Fort Smith, Judge Cot-
teral ami Judge Hook of the circuit
court sat simultaneously In Oklahoma
City to ltear arguments by tho state
and attorneys for the companies
some time ago. Throe federal judges
are necessary in a case involving con-
stitutionality of a state law.
Time of Injupnctlons.
The injunctions against the oil com-
panies will hold good until the case
has been finally decided.
No estimate of the amount of money
Involved by Judge Cotteral's decision
could he obtained at the office of the
state auditor, but since Osage county
contains some of the moat productive
oil leases in the state it is certain
that, the sum of money Oklahoma
will lose under the decision will
aount to many thousands of dollars
annually.
Gault Proposes Merging Offices.
Consolidation of the state game and
fish department with the department
of agriculture is favored by President
Frank M. Gault of the state board of
agriculture.
All state work pertaining to live*
stock, agriculture, horticulture and
the protection and preparation ol
game should be handled by one de-
partment, in the opinion of Mr. Gault.
He believes the work now done by the
state game and fish department could
be handled In connection with the
work of the board of agriculture at
less than half of what It Is now cost*
ing the state to run the department
separately.
It also is the opinion of Mr. Gaull
that the law should he amended se
as to give the department of agrlcuV
ture supervision over the inspection
of medicated stock food offered foi
sale In Oklahoma. This work Is now
done by the state department ol
health at Guthrie.
Express Refund Order.
The question of issuing an ordei
directing express companies operating
in Oklahoma to refund approximately
#500,000 in excess charges to shippem
is now entirely in the hands of th*
corporation commission for determina-
tion. After numerous delays and
continuances the hearing on the peti-
tion of the attorney general to deter
mine the amount of the refund waj
concluded late Thursday afternoon and
the case was taken under advisement
According to figures submitted bj
the express companies the amount to
be refunded is $473,675. This it
slightly less than the amount estt*
mated by the corporation commission,
However, it is understood the corals'
sion probably will issue an order dl
recting the express companies to
make the refund according to their
own figures. This will likely be done
to avoid further controversy regarding
the amount.
Million Dollar Oil Fire.
Cleveland—Lightning set pre to five
55,000 barrel oil tanks belonging to
the Gypsy Oil Company near here,
causing an estimated loss of a half g
million dollars.
Neutrality Required of U. S. Officers.
Strict neutrality, even In commer-
cial matters, is required of employes
I of the federal department of justice.
This fact was brought to light in a
statement by Herbert M. Peck, assist-
ant United States district attorney.
No advertising matter of any char-
acter is allowed to be exhibited in
offices of the district attorney. Blot-
ters and other desk accessories must
he of “neutral” design. The only cal-
endars are those issued by the gov^
eminent. Strict rules applying to dis-
position of books, are In effect.

State Twine For Next Wheat Crop.
Machinery and equipment, for tha
binder twine plant to he operated by
the state In tho penitentiary at Me-
AleHter was purchased by the state
board of affairs from the Watson Ma-
chinery Company of Patterson, N. J., *
for $35,465.
The contract calls for the delivery of
the machinery not later than Jan. 1,
1917. The first shipment is expected
to reach the penitentiary within the
next sixty or seventy days. The work
of installing it will begin immediately
and will be rushed with the view of
having the plant in operation in time
to make binder twine for use in the
1917 harvest.
The machinery purchased by the
hoard Is sufficient to equip a plant
with a daily capacity of 12,000 pounds
of binder twine.
An appropriation of $125,000 was
made by the last extra session of the
legislature for the installation and
equipment of the twine plant. Of this
#75,000 was set aside for the construc-
tion of the building and the purchase
of the machinery, the remaining
$50,000 to be used In the purchase of
raw material.
