Big Picnic.

The sunday School picnic of the
First Presbyterian church was a big
success Almost five hundred in all
took passage on the excursion train
that left at eight o'clock for Coaldale,
Men. women aud children of all ages
composed the crowd All alike had
left all cares behind and were out for a
day of pleasure. The day was per
feet one and the time WAS spent very
pleasantly until the train started on the
return trip.
Many took advantage of this chance
for days fishing and some. caught as
many as twenty trout. While passing
through the canon the train stopped
for few minutes and allowed the
passengers to alight and view the seen
cry. Rev. Mcmillan expressed himself
as more than pleased with the result of
the picuic. 1t may be tha, thus was
only one OF series of annual outings
OF this kind.

ted some of the largest medicine COM

all contagious and intlemmatory dis

organized 10 knock out the text book law

legislature Mr.. Ross is now in CORE
spondence with several large text book
DrhIfshing houses. not members OF the

the situation and pointers as 10 now 10
attack the new law. ~
The bill passed by the legislature gives
the American Book Company monOpoiy
of the business here for the next five years
at a 20 per cent reduction from the pres
ent prices of books. That large amount
Of money WAS used TO secure the passage
of this law Is not disputed. Mr.. Ross claims
that the law is unconstitutional for several
reasons: First, because the bill was not
signed by the speaker of the general as
sembIy until four days after the hnal ad-
iournment of the legislature; second. be
cause the governor did not sign the bllt
until the eXpira ton OF the time provided
by law that he should do so: third, because
evidence can be produced 10 show that the
bill was passed by corrupt means. Mr. Ross
has promised TO furnish all necessary eNl-
dence to prove these charges.
II is said that Crane & Co. book
publishers of Topeka, will go in with other
companies outside of the combine TO knock
out the law. Oklahoma is fertile field for
the school book business. There are l0,ON
schools in the territory and f1guring that
of SIS worth of books a year, this would
aggregate $2J000 year. or N.2JO,O0O for

CONFIRMATION OF M'coRD.
senate Spends Four Hours Consider
ing the Nomination for Gov
eru0r of Arizona.

Washington. July 16.-The senate spent
more than four hours in executive session
to-day in IN effort to confirm the nomina-
ton of NJ. II. McCord, to he governor of
Arizona, and adjourned after o'clock
without having succeeded in that purpose.
The failure was due, however. only to the
absence of a quorum. A vote was secured,
firmation. eight less than a quorum
The contest was over McCOrd's record,
as developed by the investigation of the
committee on territories and was made
by Berry and Teller. while Messrs. Davis.
Carter. Spooner and Kyle took the lead in
Mr.. McCord's behalf. Senator Carter being
especially active. as Senator Berry was
upon the opposing side.
The opposition was based on the plea
that a man against whom there were SO
many charges should not be elevated TO
so high an Office until he was absolutely
cleared OF the charges.
II was asserted that the committee had
refused to make an investigation of some
of the charges and that the McCord family
had made an immense fortune out of land
legislation in his congressional district in
Wisconsin for which he was responsible.
1t was declared on behalf of the com
mittee that its investigation had been
thorough and that it fully exonerated Mr..
McCord.
McCord's friends feel greatly encouraged
over to-day's vote. and say that 1t is a
sure precursor OF confirmation with a
quorum present when the nomination Is
next considered.

CATION here no CrCdenCe Is given to the
report cahIed from London that the Span
ism and Japanese governments have enter
ed into an alliance against the United
States 1t is pointed out that the Span
ish newspapers are nearly as bitter in their
denuuciations of the japanese whom they
charge with giving mateTlal AID TO the
Philippine insurgents, as they are against
this government for permitting arms and
men to be sent to Cuba. 1t was stated in
the most positive terms that there was alb
solutely no truth in the rumor. and II was
explained hat the presentation OF the chrys-
anthemum decoration to King Alfonso
had no significance whatever, so far as the
United States is concerned. and does not
imply any change in the relations between
Japan and Spain.
The state department has no information
whatever of any alliance between Spain
and Japan.
London. July 1.-THE Daily Mails Paris
correspondent says:
United States Ambassador Porter as
sures me that the TumOr that he said an
alliance existed between Spain and Japan
is quite unfounded.
The Spanish embassy also oeciares the
report TO be a Canard.
THE Daily Chronicle says 1t believes
that the ruulor of the formation OF an al
lance between the governments OF Spain
and Japan against the United states Is a
bogy intended to frighten America INTO an
neXing Hawaii before congress aGlourns
because it is believed that II the Islands
are annexed now Japan will not move IN
the matter but II action is delayed Japan
will perhaps take action.
