The Governors Dilemma.

Governor Van SAINT of Minnesota was
In New York recently. Soon after his
arrival former resident OF Minnesota
called at the hotel and was shown tc
the governors room. He found the
governor sitting in a chair surveying
with gloomy countenance trunk
which stood against the wall.
What is the matter. GOVERNOR" ask.

Il want 10 get u suit OF clothes out
of that trunk was the answer.
We'll. what's the dificuly-lost the
key?'
No. | have the key all right" said
the governor, heaving a sigh. "I'll tell
you how 1t is. Ny wife packed that
trunk. She expected to come with me.
but was prevented at the last slouent.
To my certain knowledge she put in
enough to fill three trunks the way n
man would pack them. If | open II

is whether 1t would be cheaper to &C

NEW SHORT STORIES
The students Question.

The late John K. Proctor was one OF
the best story tellers in Washington. he
went to ii dinner the night before lie
died and told this tale of his college
days:
The professor in psychology when
was a senior was an erudite man VINO
sometimes talked of things SO Tar
above the heads of his class that no.
body understood what he was driving
at.
lone day he started in on some ab-
stract proposition and talked for hal
or three-quarters of an hour lie WAS
away over in the back of TIL booN'
The entire class was daZed. The pro-
fessor rambled on with his PROPOSE
tons until everybody was so tangled
that nobody was sure of his name,
Finally the professor took out his
watch, gazed at 1t lmpressiyely ana
said: Now, gentlemen. there are ten
minutes remaining of the recitation
hour. If anybody wishes to question
me concerning the subjects have Just
treated shall be glad TO answer To
the best Of my ability
There was CHASTITY silence. No
body knew what he had been talking
about. The old professor gazed com.
placently around. Finally a student
stuck up a timorous hand.
What is ltT asked the professor
pompously.
"'Please. professor said the stu
dent, what time is it?'"

to the door of the house of representa-

OF the doorkeepers turned him back.

man. The doorkeeper reminded him
that ex-senators were entitled only TO
the floor of the senate. Pugh walked
dejectedly back to the other end of
the capitol. Just as he entered the SEN
ate cloakroom he recalled that. after
all, he was entitled TO the floor of the
house as former member. He was
elected to the house of representatives
just before the war and resigned at the
outbreak of the civil war, but he had
forgotten all about II,

PROSPECT FOR
FIGURING MILL
vinita's Needs Likely Soon to
Be Supplied.
SPLENDID INvESTM ENT
Both Hard and Soft Vine at
Flour Can Be PrOftabIy
Made at Vinita With
out Any Kind Of
Doubt.
SPLENDID INVESTMENT

Vinita's need for a Touring mill is
recognized by all and the indications
now are that that need will be sup
piled before the coming grain season.
Mr. George Nidiffer and his associ-
ates in the Frisco Milling Co. have
about decided to put an extension to
their corn and feed mill, which stands
at valuation Of about s6000 BY this
plan, having plenty Of power, they
believe the requirements of the city
and community can be fully supplied
in this line, and that the increased in
yestment will prove profitable.
1t is the belief Of mill people, or
those conyersant with matters Of this
character, is that Vinita should have
mill Of 25O barrels capacity, prepar-
ed TO grind both hard and soft wheat,
as the use of the former -four is be-
coming almost as general as the lat
ter.
Although hard wheat is not raised
hefs the railroads, by their freight
tariffs, equalize matters, and NIL
can mSke just the same prices from
here as Shough situated in the wheat
belt Of Kansas Better TOO, in fact,
because a mill can he operated here,
where coal, labor and living are cheap,
and taxes practically nothing, on a
much closer margin than in the states.
These various points make an alluring
proposition TO men in this business,
and Ii is not to be doubted that in a
comparatively short time Ninita will
have a mill in keeping with its re-
Quirements.

STATEHOOD HEARING.
Thomas Doyle and Judge Chester
Howe Spoke Monday.

Hearings before the House commit
tee on territories was resumed Monday
with Thomas Doyle, of Perry, Okla.
as the speaker Mr.. Doyle held the
attention of the committee for TWO
hours. when a recess was taken. In
the afternoon he concluded his re-
marks in favor Of single statehood,
and Judge Chester Howe, formerly OF
Oklahoma Territory, was permitted to
take the floor and express his views
on statehood. 1t was at first expected
that Captain John N. Palmer, Of Paw
huska. prominent lawyer Of the
Usage nation, who had just reached
Washington, would address the COM
mittee; but, at his request, he will be
heard later.
Mr.. Doyle took for his subject the
Mcclure statehood bill, to which he
gave particular attention in his former
remarks. lie again pointed out its
many defects as regards the creation
Of seventy-fiye constitutional delegate
districts.
He argued that this section totally
ignored county lines, much 70 the i'm
jury Of the people.
During the argument Delegate Nc
CURE asserted that If two-thirds Of
the people of Oklahoma were not for
the admission Of Oklahoma into the
union, alone, he would forever cease
a measure that had for its
object snch a proposition.
Judge Howe's talk dealt chiefly with
figures, in which he compared the tax
able property Of the sister territories
lie shows that, out Of a total OF 27,-
600, OoO acres Of land IN Oklahoma,
only little over 1900, 900 acres were
now on the tax list. and while the
lands Of the Indian Territory were ex-
empt from taxation at present he re-
viewed the wonderful mineral resourc-
es in the country which, he pointed
out, If taxed would alone yield suf-
dcient revenue to run a state govern
ment.
Al the close Of Mr.. Howe's talk the
adjourned until tomorrow,
when II. f. Iiayens, OF Enid, will be
heard ln favor cf the Mcclure bill.

FORFEITURE IS DENIED
Act of Congress Being Silent,
Arkansas Penalty Cannot
be invoked - Other
4 Court Notes of
Interest.

A matter Of exceptional Importance
was passed on by Judge Gin yesterday
Iii usury defense. AS is generally
known the Arkansas statute pre-
scribes forfeiture OF the principal OF
the note IN the event that higher
rate Of interest than 10 per cent Is
charged. 1t is one OF but two states
sn the Union which is so pronounced
against usury
This law substantially fixed the rate
nf Interest in the Indian Territory at
10 per cent, until congress reached the
concluson that the banks and parties
creditor generally were too generous
bsith themselves, and so passed an act
two years ago making our legal note
Df interest per cent.
The general belief was that the PEN
alty Of forfeiture Of principal and in
terest followed but the matter had
never been passed upon until yester-
day.
The case IN question was that Of
Mrs. w. j. Kuhn vs. r. W. Milan.
PThe court sustained a demurrer 70 an
answer wherein the plea Of usury was
.saugiit TO be Invoked to forfeit prin-
lcipaI and interest on a note bearing
no per cent interest on its face. II
lwas urged that forfeiture now attach
-. If any rate Of interest ia excess of
per cent is named, but that conten-
sion was not sustained.
When the matter went TO trial by
Jury the court instructed that YER
dict for not more than $ per cent in-
terest should be brought.
The case will probably be carried 70
the appellate court, and until a decis-
ion has been reached by that tribunal
it may not be wise TO draw a note for
a greater rate Of interest than per
cent, but the belief is that Judge Gill's
yiew Of the law Is the correct one. To
arrive at a different one il Is necessary
10 read into the q. 5. statute, which
b silent on the subject. the Arkansas
penalty against a different and high
.er rate Of interest.
