OF THE PRACTICAL POLITICIAN
President Scott DiscOurses Taking
sCassius" as His Text

Guthrie, o. T.. Dec. 30.-In the course
Of his remarkably fine lecture before the
Teachers association, on Shakespeare's
Julius Caesar" in Oklahoma City, on
Thursday night. President A. c. Scott
drew a vivid description of the practical
politician, as drawn by Shakespeare in
the character of Cassius and the pract-
cal politician as he exists today. The
lecturer said: THE fact is, Shakespeare
has portrayed here with wonderful fdel-
ity a character with which all times and
all countries have been familiar-the
practical politician. I realize the peril
OF attempting a sweeping characterize
ton Of the practical politician which
shall be true and just. It cannot be made.
But take those. the potential. the sue
cessful. the accomplishing ones, what an
interesting and complex and contradict
DRY combination they are-bad. tragically
bad: good. magnificently good: lovers Of
money and place and power and willing
to trample conscience in the dust to at
tain them And vet, how often lovers Of
country, lovers Of liberty, lovers Of wife
and children and home; and from the
dun clouds Of evil living and evil think
ing. what lightning flashes OF nobility. of
sacrifice. Of devotion. Of heroism. now

the secret becoming known led to the
hour being changed to an earlier one
Aside from the fact of the marriage
taking place without the consent of the
brides parents, the union is a most hap
Ply one. Miss Bessie was social favor
tie in Guthrie, where she was reared
from early childhood, and her lovable
disposition, coupled with a lively vivacity
of manner, made her a general favorite
with all classes. She received her early
education in the public schools Of Guth-
RE and at Bethany college in Topeka
finishing with a musical course under
Gottschalk Of Chicago.
Her husband, Mr. Carl Havighorst, Is
easily one Of the most popular young
men in Guthrie society. Like his young
wife, he too, has lived in Guthrie since
childhood and early formed those ex-
emplary habits which have given him
such high character and standing in
business and social life He has for years
been an employee of the Guthrie National
bank. where he holds the position Of
paying teller.
Governor Barnes was first Informed Of
the marriage in a brief telegram from
his daughter He took the announce
ment philisophically. and there is hardly
a doubt but that the young couple will
receive his forgiveness and blessing.

robertson came to his death by gunshot

Robertson came to his death by gunshot
wounds from pistol in the hands Of
John Robertson and that the shooting
was done with felonious intent. In con-
versation with a News reporter the cor
oner said that the wounds indicated that
the shot through the head was fired first
and that neither shot seemed to have
been fired at such close range as the de-
PENDANTS story would indicate. Mrs.
Robertson, the wife of the dead man,
says that the defendants name is not
McGowen, that it is John Robertson and
that the defendant is the nephew of her
husband. She denies there is any truth
in the story Of the defendants in re-
gard to the names being assumed. Others
who at first thought the killing a case
Of self-defense. are now OF the opin-
ion that it was simply a case Of murder,
though no satisfactory explanation OF
the motive which could have prompted
the killing has been suggested, other than
the defendants own explanation.

FIRES IN INDIAN TERRITORY
Congress Will be Asked to Permit the
Issue of VyaterwOrks Bonds

Guthrie o. T., Dec. 30.-A Washington
dispatch says: Owing to the disastrous
fires which have occurred at WaggOner
and Muscogee, the people Of the Indian
Territory are much concerned in the es-
tablishment of adequate water works.
The town council Of Muscogee recently
PASSED an ordinance authorizing the
issue Of bonds for this purpose, but brok-
ers Have declined to float them, doubling
the authority Of the town to incur
debt of this kind. Chief Porter Of the
Muscogeesr has forwarded to Senate
Jones Of Arkansas and Delegate Flynn
Of Oklahoma resolutions passed by the
Muscogee nation, praying for legislation
which will enable towns in the territory
to incur debts for municipal improve
ments. Judge Springer, formerly of the
federal court there, is now in Washing
ton, and knowing the Importance of the
question, has prepared a bill to be intro
duced as soon as congress meets. t IS
framed in accordance with the constitu-
ton of Illinois, which contains such
stringent provisions in matters Of this
kind that both debtor and creditor are
protected amply. It is prescribed that no
town can incur an Indebtedness exceed
ing per cent of its assessed value and
this provision can not be repealed. Sec
ton l Of Judge Springer's bill authorizes
Incorporated towns in the Indian Terri
tory to issue bonds for the construction
of water works, sewers, school houses
and other public improvements, provided
that no Indebtedness shall exceed in the
70 If "a al ~ ba
taxable property therein, to be ascertain
ed by the last assessment for the pur-
poses Of taxation. Section provides that
any city or town mourning any Indebted
ness for the purpose of this act shall,
before or at the time Of doing SO, by or
dinance which shall be irrepealable, pro-
vide for the collection of a direct annual
tax sufficient to pay interest on such debt
as it falls due, and also to pay and dis
charge the principal thereof within TWEEN
ty years from the time of contracting the
same. Section 3 provides that no ordin-
ance shall be passed providing for the
issuing of bonds until this act shall take
effect, or be enforced until the same shall
have been approved by a majority of the
voters of said city or town. at a. special
election called for that purpose. Chief
Porter states that in the past ten years
fires in the AIuscogee nation have damag-
ed more than 100000 worth Of property
and at Waggoner more destruction has
been caused than would build COM
plete system Of water works twice over.
There IS general pressure in the territory
for this legislation. and there is little
doubt IT will be passed early IN the pres
ent session
