Guthrie, o. T., Jan. H.-The board of
education for the normal schools will hold
meeting tomorrow at Edmond, at
which time more matters relative 10
the Alva normal school will be taken up.
1t is probable that the Ament matter will

three instructors. and these charges will
be examined more fully and "A report

Crum OF Caddo county. From there
Judge Strsng VIII go TO the county seats
to make the investigation relative to the
numerous charges which have been made
against probate judges in the proving
uD OF townsites IN the new country.
Many charges have been placed on file
in the attorney generals office. Every
toHnsite proved up, with one or two
exceptions. have had charges fled in
connection with it. What these charges
really amount to no one here knows,
but Judge Strang VIII make a rigid ex-
animation.
It is intimated that II Judge Strang
finds that the charges are well founded,
that Governor Ferguson will take some
decided action toward the removal of
the probate judges. The attorney general
has stated. it is said. that the judges can
only be removed by due process of law.
but it seems that in the early DAYS a
precedent was established in the re-
moval Of officials. Judge Strang does not
know how long he will be out of the
city. but desires 10 return 10 Guthrie
as soon as possible. He takes with him
the charges made against the officials,
which makes quite a bulky bundle.

BUcKNER FIGHTS M'ATEE
Suspended Attorney Makes Effort to
Be Reinstated.

Guthrie, o. T., Jan. 14-C. r. Buckner,
an attorney OF this city, has filed a pc
tition asking for a writ OF mandamus en-
joining John L. McAtee. judge of the
Fifth judicial district to vacate his order
suspending Attorney Buckner from prac-
ticing in that district and directing him
to restore Mr.. Buckner to all of the rights
and privileges as an attorney in good
standing as well as q counsellor at law
On the 18th day of last October, Judge
AIcAtee suspended Buckner, who was an
attorney in a case then pending in Nc
Atee's court. The order of the court at
that time stated that "the court had
found Buckner guilty of wilful disrespect
and discourteous conduct toward the
court in the presence of and in open
court" and therefore the order at Enid
was issued.
Buekner denies. all of the charges
against him and states that he petitioned
to give him an opportunity TO be heard
and to purge himself of contempt if such
a thing existed, but that McAtee refused
to accede 10 his request.
Buckner further states that the order
Of suspension is unjust illegal. void and
made without Jurisdiction.
There is, considerable interest in this
matter among attorneys owing to the fact
that it IS said that this is not the first
time Buckuer and McAtee have come to-
gether In judicial matters. What the out
come will be is problematical and the de-
cision OF the court win undoubtedly be in
terestfnc

FoRGERs AT PERRY
TWO Fellows Pass Fraudulent Checks
on Innocent Butchers.

Perry, o. r., Jan. 14-Shortly after
dusk on last Saturday evening two men
entered three different meat markets in
this city, purchased p cents worth of
meat. presented a check for eight dollars
and twenty FIVE cents in payment, secured
the meat and eight dollars in each case
and decamped and have never been seen
since. Here is the strange part of the
story: An hour before this occurred,
Sheriff Foster was called up over the
phone from Guthrie and notified that
some men had Just worked Guthrie with
checks at several butcher shops and no
titled him to keep a sharp lookout. So
Foster went one way and his deputy the
other, around the square, and notified
all the merchants and particularly the
meat markets that checks with the dol
lars perforated and the name Of the firm
or company with the word per in stem
ell, and the rest OF the name in ink. might
be presented and if any were to prompt
~ notify the sheriff's office and they
would promptly arrest the parties. The
sheriff remained in his Office. and about
half an hour after the first check was
presented one of the butchers called him
UP. The sheriff ran over. but he was too
late. About an hour had elapsed and the
thieves and forgers had fed. Three
meat markets We're worked. Had they
promptly notified the sheriff, several very
clever rogues would have been captured.
The checks were perforated with small
dots, giving the amount of the check in
dollars and then for signature on one of
them were the words printed with rubber
Sfarn "H Il PuIIen Trr7ha,- 20 nor
and then the signature in ink Of "H. B.
Bullen' Immediately below it. This de-
ceived all of the meat markets. although
they had been notified. The sheriff pur-
sued four men, who had some trained
spaniel dogs in town, but on overhauling
them he found nothing suspicious, and the
meat men could identify none of the
ment. The rest of the territory must
look out for these fellows. for they have
already worked several towns.

pacity, but who the register VIII be is

The land Office matter has caused ruch
conjecture IN political circles. The tIuth-
RE office has about finished its business.
as viii be the case with the Perry office
within q very short time. 1t is necessary
for these offices TO be continued in Cme
form and it seems that the only local
solution is for a consolidation. The Enid
people have been making earnest efforts
TO have the land Office retained at that
place, but it seems that the work. thus
far. has been OF no avail.
What viii be done with the Alva and
Woodward land offices is not known.
These offices are doing large amounts of
business and the consolidation ct this
time would be more for political effect
than anything else, il seems.
The charges said 20 be filed against
Brownlee and Admire evidently have no
foundation, II they were filed. for state
ments from Washington show that there

The meeting was informal. Ex-Governor
Jenkins entering the Office unannounced.
The greeting was cordial and the two
men talked for some little time Only
once die the sanitarium matter come up
in the conversation and then only for a
short time. The conversation was Of
general affairs and there was no evi-
dent embarrassment on the part of either
of the men.
\ few nights ago, at the Brooks the
ater, Governor Ferguson and Ex-Governor
Barnes were in the same box. After the
first act. introductions were in order
for the party and after that the CONVEX
sation was carried on back and forth
in alively manner. This is the first time
the men, considered enemies in politics
have met since Tom Ferguson was made
governor. Ex-Governor Barnes has not
been a caller at the executive offices
since the Ferguson administration began.

dating from the last trial.
There are many signers to the applice-

governor is radically opposed 10 grant
ing pardons unless there are extreme
reasons for so doing. lie believes that
these matters should be settled In the

There have been many applications for
pardoBs since Governor Ferguson took
the oath of Office. a woman from west
ern Oklahoma, with thee children, ap-
peared in the governors Office a few days
ago TO ask for a pardon for husband and
father. The man was sent up on a
charge of stealing cattle which seemed
to have been a clear case against him

her statements that he should be released.
This is only one of the many situations
which have confronted Governor Fergu-

The other day at the meeting of the

was about the cooperation of the farm

had to accept most any old price that was
plt upon his commodity by the purchaser
and take about whatever price was Of
tered him. If he bought coal oil he paid
whatever price was asked by the grocer,

SPEAKER. who is one Of the professors in
tho a. & NJ. college. said that he was
fully. informed as to the kind of oil that
was being sold~in Oklahoma, and although
the law requires that OH shall test about

not that high The professor went on to
roast the coal oil inspector and his depu-
lies. Eli9wing what q great farce the in

people are getting no results from their
money. The matter viii be taken up
