Golf and Pacific Cable.

The statement is made in all serious
ness that the golf fad may postpone. II
not prevent, the laying Of the proposed
Pacific cable. The explanation is this:
The great demand for golf balls has
created a gutta percha famine. The
supply is limited. the market has been
cornered and the price has gone MP so
high that the promoters Of the new
submarine cable are unable to buy
what they would need for insulating
purposes. II is claimed that the gutta
pereha used for golf balls In the course
OF year would furnish insulating ma
terial for a cable across the Atlantic.

Oklahoma City Times Journal; Mrs.
Douglas wrote to Mr. Carnegie some
days ago, explaining what progress
had been made In library matters and
inquirlng whether he had any sugges-
tions to offer In relation TO the plans
for the building. Today a reply was
received. Mr.. Carnegie said that he
had no plans and did not care to make
any suggestions, believing that the
library association was capable of
handling the matter satisfactorily.
Replying to statement printed In
the Saltwater Democrat that large
number of the pupils enrolled in the
Alva normal school were from the
Alva public schools; that, in fact, the
two schools were run as one, Ira Stout,
principal OF the Alva public schools,
makes affidavit that there are 304 pu-
pills enrolled four teachers employed,

The Republican has always been for
statehood, but not in favor OF double
statehood. The Oklahoma and Indian
territories would make one grand,
great state, but we have no. right TO
expect congress to grant us statehood
alone. Governor Barnes deserves
much credit for vetoiug that foolish
bill OF Senators Havens and Clarke,
which was an effort on their part 20
force congress in an extraordinary
way to grant statehood for oklahoma
alone. II seems strange that Mr..
Flynn would urge Mr.. Clarke TO come
TO Washington TO assist in getting a
statehood bill through for Oklahoma.
II is strange in view OF his jefferson
speech in which ho denounced the ef-
forts Of certain people TO assiat him IN
passing the free homes bill. In the

Cassius NJ Gllett. United States en-
gineer corps, was FIRST placed on the stand
for cross examination by Lawyer Abram
j. Rose.
Mr. Rose questioned Capt Ginett with
reference to his Identification OF each of
the defendants and then asked for the
production OF the original contract be-
tween the United States government and
the accused contractors. Commissioner
Shields ruled that the counsel for the
accused contractors would have TO in.
troduce his copy OF the contract II he
wanted the paper as evidence. Mr.. Rose
then went into a minute examination OF
his witness as to his personal knowledge
of the opening Of the bids for the con-
tracts, OF the presentation OF claims on
the contract OF certain checks said to
have been issued by Capt. o. M Carter,
etc. United -,ates District Attorney
Burnett objected, saying that the only
points to be determined at the examlna-
ton were the identification OF the accused
and n there was probable cause on which
TO hold the men. Mr Rose said he was
endeavoring TO prove that the Indictment
was untrue
This ended Capt. Gnletts examination
and then Attorney Baldwin introduced
the bail bonds as additional evidence to-
ward proving the identity OF the accused
contractors.
Commissioner Shields allowed the
papers in evidence and the government
then rested the case. The examination
