BEING ICE MAN
ISN'T so SOFT
CONFESSED.

Another grartcr has confessed.
This time it Is Abraham Ruef. of
san Francisco.
In pleading guilty he made an i'm
pressive address to the judge. stat
ing that he had commenced his ca
reer in politics with high ideals for
himself and for the city, but that
conditions had broken him down.
and he now desired only an oppor-
tunity TO make reparation and re-
store his character before tho world.
After he concluded his address he fell
back into his chair, almost fainting.
and tears ooursed down his cheeks.
His health, he said, could not on
dure the strain of the trial which he
was facing, and the torture was be-
yond the endurance of those who
were nearest and dearest to him.
Before Ruef arose, his attorneys.
Henry Ach, Samuel Shortrldge and
Frank Murphy one by one, arose
and stated that. owing to grave
difference of opinion with their eli
ent, each OF them must withdraw
from the case.
Further action in his case was
postponed for two weeks.

TO KEEP
OKLAHOMA OUT
REPUBLICANS WILL FIGHT AD-
MISSION OF DEMOCRATIC
TERRITORY.

Washington, May l6.-Oklahoma
Republicans will fight to the last
ditch the adoption of the Constitu-
tion for the new State as it is now
framed. President Roosevelt pre-
fers that an energetic fight be made
before an appeal is made to him to
disappToye the Constitution on the
ground that it does not provide for a
republican form of government, as
the enabling act requires.
This is the result of a day of con
ferences which delegations of repub-
licans from Oklahoma and Indian
Territories, headed by Governor
Frantz, have held with President
Roosevelt, Secretary Taft, Represen-
tative Sherman of New York,
and Representative Loudenslagor,
of New Jersey, the chairman and
secretary, respectively, of the Re
publican Congressional Comittee.
The touble Is entirely political. AS
the Democrats control, they have
gerrymandered the State A decis
sion rendered in Oklahoma today
prevents the carrying out of the
gerrymander and will delay the cleo
tion, which was to have been held
August 6.
President Roosevelt has been un-
able to obtain any certified copy OF
the Constitution The president Of
the Constitutional Convention, Mr..
w. II. Murry is said to have pos
session of the seven copies of the
instrument and has thus far refused
to file them with the Secretary of
the Territory. The Republicans al
lege it is materially changed from
time to time.
The President i'm informed that the
Constitution provides that no Judge
can punish a man for contempt of
court except after trial by jury. Oh.
the educational tax was limited TO
miles, although the existing law
limits it to 20 miles; that any cor
poration which appeals from the
state courts TO the Federal Court
forfeits its charter, and numerous
other radical provisions, which Ad-
ministation leaders declare sound
more like a Democratic Populist
platform than a Republican Cousti-
tuition.
Besides Secretary Taft, who will
attend the Indian Territory Repub-
lican Convention in June, it IS proba-
bic Chairman Sherman and other
members of the Congressional com
