WANTS JENKINS REMOVED

Guthrie. o. T, Oct. 8.-PoliticaI discus
eions were given a new turn this morn
ing by the announcement that charges
had been preferred against Governor W.
N. jenkins, and that it is asked that he
be removed from Office. The charges
in Washington against the governor were
made by Judge J. J. Merrick OF Lincoln
county. He requests an immediate inves-
tigation Of charges made by him, which
are that Jenkins has attempted to use
the appointment of territorial treasurer to
his own ends. He also charges Interior
motives in retaining certain members Of
the Alva normal faculty
The document is said be a lengthy one.
Just why Judge Merrick should prefer
charges on his own account is hard 10
understand as he and Governor Jenkins
have always been on good terms. The
governor said today:

no grounds to bring charges. against me

It is not believed that the effort being
made to defeat the confirmation of Gov

Flynn has said that he win DO all in his
power to confirm Jenkins. The only
method in which the confirmation could
be stopped would be for seven Republicans
in the senate TO vote with the Democrats
and this is not considered likely.
