STUDENTS STICK TYPE
College Paper at Saltwater All
Home Print" Now.
PRINTING AND PUBLISHING
May Be Learned as a Part of
the College Course.

Guthrie, o. T., May 16.-(Special.)-The
initial number Of the college Paper,
the successor to the college Mirror has
been issued by the students of the Okla
homa Agricultural and Mechanical col
lege. The composition and press work is
done by students, as a part of their course
of instruction in the department Of print
ing. The responsibility for the paper and
its contents rests with a committee of the
faculty and it's publication is under the
direction of the superintendent of print
ing. The department of printing in the
college was established for the purpose Of
giving instruction in the minor matters
of printing and job work. 1t is not the
intention to make the work other than
purely instructive, and work in the print
ing department does not count as a part
OF the regular course leading to the de-
gree Of bachelor 70 science, but is taken
either as extra work in the regular courses
or by special students, along with stenog-
raphy, typewriting and English. Frequent
press bulletins will be issued by the ex-
pertinent station and sent to the newspa-
pers Of the territory. This arrangement
will, it is believed. enable the college to
offer better and broader facilities for in
struction, and the station TO bring its
work into closer connection with the peo-

OIL CASE Arguments
EIoquentIy and Ably Put By
Both Sides.
DECISION STILL RESERVED
Issue Reduced to the Restrain
ing Order on Ewing

Guthrie, o. T. May 16.-(special.)-The
arguments in the oil injunction suits were
not concluded at Oklahoma City until late
last night and Judge BurweH went to Te-
cumseh this morning with the understand
ing that he would render a decision prob
ably tomorrow. The arguments covered
both sides Of the case very thoroughly.
A1essrs. Johnson and Shartell. attorneys
for the oil trust, combatted the constitu-
tionality Of the new law; that it violated
the provisions Of the interstate commerce
act that he legislature of a. territory was
without power to enact restrictive legis
lation against a trust, and insinuated that
in any event the Fifth legislative assem-
bly, did not know what it was doing when
it sought TO establish a certain grade for
oils brought into the territory for con-
sumption by the people. Mr.. Howard,
who appeared as associate counsel on be-
half of On Inspector Ewing, made a pow
erfu and mastery presentation Of his
side Of the case, submitting clean-cut
Interpretation of the Beouma scale, the
proper reading of which figures 50 largely
IN the present controversy. The argu-
1nent was closed by Attorney General Gun
ningham, who clearly showed that the
legislature had not assumed extraordi-
nary power in seeking to compel the oil
trust TO furnish pure oils to the territory.
In order to simplify the case the attor-
neys for the oil inspector withdrew the
application for a temporary injunction TO
restroom the oil company from selling oil
in the territory, 50 that the only matter
TO be disposed Of is the temporary order
restraining the oil Inspector from perform
ing the duties Of his office. Should Judge
Burwell dissolve this restraining order the
oil inspector will be free to renew his
application for an Injunction against the
oil company. or he may elect to prosecute
under the law.

good faith nor did he sign the agreement

he feared the opposition of Governor
Barnes. That's the truth, as shown in
Flynn's action in arraying the legislature

He set the ball in motion and then rushed
off to St Louis so that ne could deny any
