Annual Report SUBMITTED by Warde1
Harris.

Annual Report SUBMITTED by Warden
Harris.
Warden Harris Of the District Jail, In
making his annual report to the Attorney
General for the year ending October 81,
1901, says that:
Since March 3, 1901. very few persons
under the age of seventeen have been COM
mitted to the jail. All juvenile offenders
under that age-with the exception of those
under very serious charges-are now sent
to the House Of Detention. where there is
no danger of their being thrown In contact
with hardened and habitual criminals. Dur
ing the year ending October 81, 1900, 2s2
persons under the age Of seventeen were
committed to the jail. some of whom were
mere children.
Notwithstanding the prevailing high
prices for supplies for the Jail during the
present year, we believe the economy
practiced will overcome these advanced
prices, so that we may be able to keen
ing the past year the daily cost per capita
for food for prisoners was % cents. Dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 80 1901 the
daily per capita cost, including subsistence
repairs, forage, live stock, sanitary adyer-
Using and printing. clothing, tobacco, bed
ding, stationery, convict stationery, fuel
light, officers salaries. etc, was 341s cents
and the annual per capita cost was
During the past year small sums OF
money have come into my hands from time
to time from the sale OF old barrels and
bones and old roofing. aggregatfng the sum
of 800. which sum 1 have turned over to
the United States treasurer.
Religious services are being conducted in
the Jail on each Sabbath by three distinct
denominations. the Catholic denomination
holding services during the morning hours
the Colored Baptist Association holding ser
Vices from IL m. until PM, and the Wes-
ley Chapel Association holding services
from until pm. We believe these SER
vices are productive Of good results, and In
this connection we desire to thank all those
who have taken such deep interest In the
spiritual welfare of those who are con-
fined in the jail. and to invite continuance
Of these services"

GOV, JENKINS REMOVED
THOMAS II. FERGUSON APPOINTED
TO SUCCEED HIM.
The President's Reasons for Changing
the Chief Executive of
Oklahoma.

The President has appointed Thomas B.
Ferguson governor of Oklahoma, vice VIII
liam M. Jenkins. removed.
In taking this action the President at
tached to the papers the following memo
randum:
Governor jenkins of Oklahoma is here
by removed because Of his improper con-
nection with contract between the terri
tory and the Oklahoma Sanitarium Com
pany. The decision is based purely upon
his own written statements, and hts oral
explanations Of them at the final hearing.
Zone of the duties Of the territorial gov
ernor Is to enter into a contract with some
person or corporation, for the keeping of
the insane Of the territory. Governor Jen-
kins made such contract with the Okla
homa Sanitarium Company, corporation.
the promoters Of which reserved $4,000 of
it's stock for the governor, and subject to
his orders.
"In The governors explanation of the af-
fair, he says he told the promoters at the
time they desired him to sanction the con-
tract, that it was an important contract
and that I have some friends whom would
like to have interested in the company, to
whom l owed some political obligations
which I would not be able to pay by an APP
pointment or anything of that kind The
stock was delivered to a banker subject to
the governors orders, and was turned over
to these friends whose political services the
governor thus sought to reward.
''The extent of1thez favor to the governor
or his friends Is suggested by the fact that
the only known sale Of the stock since the
contract was given out was at double the
price paid for it.in y 3rHsE
LAS performance ofo the contract was to
be the sole business of the corporation. it
is obvious, either that the territory was
obligated to pay far more than the service
was worth. or that its helpless wards were
to have the enormous profits contemplated
taken out Of their keep.
1.-The governors confessed relations 20 the
matter disclose such IAN entire lack of ap-
probation of the high fiduciary nature Of
the duties of his office as to unfit him for
their further disehar9s.
