TO SECURE TWO PARDoNs
Attorney From Enid Makes an Appeal
for Two Beginners.

Guthrie, o. r., Feb. 27.-John ". Rob
inson, an attorney at Enid. has returned
home after making an attempt to Sc
cure a pardon for two men sentenced
from Garfield county to the Kansas peni-
tentiary Tor highway robbery. The men
were employed at railroad work in Enid
two years ago ana held UP an old man
one night, robbins him of his money.
The case was brought before the notice
Of Judge J. /. AIcAtee. and he sentenced
the men to ten years in the penitentiary
each. The men only secured a few dol
lars, it is said, and statements have been
made that the men We're under the in
6uence Of liquor and had never shown a
disposition to rob anyone before that
time. Mr.. Robinson win be in the city
again to see the governor, but it is very
doubtful if he viii be able to secure a
pardon for the two men.

hotel last night the Woodward man held
a large crowd Of people around him
while making his statements in regard
70 the matter. His statements are as
follows:
This new section in the Flynn bill.
inserted by the committee in congress.
is the most unjust legislation ever at
tempted in regard to Oklahoma, for the
following reasons:
When old Oklahoma was opened to
settlement, comprising seven counties,
section 13 was not reserved for college
purposes, neither was any section re-
served in the openings Of the Sac and
Fox. Iowa and Cheyenne and Arapa-
hoo countries \ lobby, consisting of
President Boyd of the territorial uni
versity and number of other gentlemen
OF southern Oklahoma succeeded in lob
bying a bill through congress. when the
Cherokee Strip was opened. reserving
section 13 for college purposes. and the
only sections 13 reserved for college pur-
poses were in the Cherokee Strip, Greer
county and the Kiowa and Conmanche
country. recently opened TO settlement
Mr.. Flynn. representing Oklahoma
territory. had presented a fair bill for
distributing the funds among the educa-
tional institutions, now located in the
territory; Mr.. Scott. president of the A.
and NJ. college. and Mr. Boyd. president
Of the territorial university, instead of
attending to- their duties for which they
are paid by the territory, have been in
Washington lobbying TO steal away from
other educational institutions their Just
proportions of the sections I3.
we have now in Oklahoma the uni
versity. the A. and NJ. college, three
white and colored normal schools Tn
der section 5. as amended. teh university
and the 4. and NJ. college would get
one third each of the sections Is, and
all the other four institutions of the ter
ritory would get the remaining one third.
The territorial government, and also
the legislature, have distributed the rem
tails from these lands equally among
the territorial institutions. so that each
has had an equal amount. Section s, as
amended. is a steal on the part of Scott
and Boyd, and should not be passed by
congress Every institution in the terri
tory is doing just as good work toward
the education as the people of the uni
versity and the A. and NJ. college.
THE result Of this steal would be the
solidifying Of western Oklahoma and the
Cherokee Strip against Oklahoma proper
when the time comes to locate the cap
ital and the other state institutions, and
should not be put in the statehood bin
for that purpose. All the Cherokee Strip,
Greer county and the Kiowa and Co
manche country ask is to be placed on
an equal basis with the other institu-
tons and not be Disseminated against.
The bulk OF the population is now west
of the Rock Island railroad and this
portion OF the territory only has the
Northwestern and Southwestern Nor
mails within their boundaries.
