Reasons. Charging Abuse OF rrust.
The president has appointei Thomas
Il. Ferguson governor Of Oklahoma,
vice William NJ. Jenkins, removed.
In taking this action the president at
tached to the papers the following
memorandum:
Governor jenkins Of Oklahoma Is
hereby removed because Of his i'm
proper connection with contract be-
tween the territory and the Oklahoma
sanitariun company The decision Ia
based wholly upon his own written
statements and his oral explanations
OF them at the hearing.
zone OF the duties OF the territorial
governor Is TO enter into a contract
with some person or corporation for
the keeping OF the insane Of the Terri
tory. Governor Jenkins made such n
contract with the Oklahoma sanitari.
um company, n corporation, the pro-
motors Of which reserved $4,000 Of It's
stock for the governor and subject to
his orders
'In the governors explanation Of
the affairs he says he told the promot-
ers at the time they desired him TO
sanction the contract that II was an
important contract; that had some
friends who l would like to have in
terested In the company to which /
owed some obligations which | would
not be able TO pay by an appointment
or anything OF that kind. The stock
was delivered to banker subject to
the governors order and was turned
over TO those friends whose political
services the governor had thus sought
TO reward.
1.-The extent OF the favor TO the gov
ernor and 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
H.
"As performance Of the contract was
TO be the sole business OF the corpora.
tion, II Is obvious either the territory
was obliged to pay far more than tie
service was worth, or that its helpless
wards were to have tho enormous
profits contemplated taken out OF their
keep.
1.-THE governors confessed relations
10 the matter displays such a lack OF
appreciation OF the high aduciary
nature OF the duties OF his Office as TO
unit him for their further discharge.
"a sound rule OF public policy and
morals forbids particular servant
from seeking or accepting any personal
benefit in a transaction wherein he has
a public duty TO perform.
"a chancellor would not for the mo-
ment retain trustee who, In dealings

A Cool uoussmaia

A rather curious method Of burglar
catching was resOrted to by an In.
genious m0ldservant recently In New
York. As The Electrical Review tells
the story, while in pursuit OF her
household duties the maid noticed
mans foot inside the clothes closet.
She did not scream, neither did she
jump at the door nor shut II with n
bang. Instead she took q broom and
began 10 sweep that corner OF tho
room near the closet. Her approach
was gradual. and the sweeping was
done 80 naturally that 1t would not
have aroused the most suspicious bur-
glar. At last the broom brushed the door
gently, but hard enough to close IL to
the fraction Of an inch. with lye or
six more gentle sweeps that closet
door was shut and almost latched,
which she at length succeeded In doing
by gently pressing her arm against II.
AS the telephone in her house was
so near the closet that the burglar
would be able TO hear her IL she called
for assistance. she bethought herself
OF another plan. In the back yard
some telephone linemen were at the
time making repairs ON n wire that
runs TO another house in the block
She went out and spoke TO them. They
promptly tapped a wire. attached a
testing instrument and called up one
OF the down town exchanges, which in
turn got the house owner. who In his
turn called up police headquarters.
From there the call was sent to the
police station nearest the house, and
two policemen were sent around and
got the man
