WILL LOSE NO TIME
Governor Elect Haskell Says That
He viii Call the Legislature
Together This Month.

Guthrie, Oct. 4-C. N. Haskell, gov
erncr.elect of Oklahoma, came to
Guthrie today on his return from the
trip to St. Louis to meet President
Roosevelt. Asked if he feared that
statehood might yet fail ne said:
"We did not get to talk to the pres
dent on the subjecu but | have no
doubt that he will approve the Okla
homa constitution as he has said he
would. The constition provides that
/ Eshall call the legislature within
thirty days Of the admission of the
state, but I shall do SO Immediately
after the Inauguration and expect to
have the legislature in session by the
last Of this MONTH"
Governor-elect Haskell Will remain
in Guthrie until the state canvasslng
board meets
II do not believe the Republicans
will file any contests as to the state
ticket" said Mr.. Haskell, although
individual contests may be brought as
to some Of of the counties"
Mr. Haskell declares that there is
nothing in the talk that a fight will
be made on Z. P. Gore In the legisla-
ture. and that an attempt will be.
made to send Tom Doyle to the
United States senate instead Of the
blind orator.
"The people settled that matter at.
the primaries, and the election last
month and the legislature will elect
the primary nominees to the United
senate, said Mr. Haskell. He left
tonight for Oklahoma City, where he
will speak at the new state fair and
and return to Guthrie the first of
next week.

The November Election.

Although only six states elect gov
ernors this fall, for an off year the
November elections will have unusual
interest because of their bearing on
national politics and the presidential
campaign Of 1908,
Mississippi and Kentucky may be
conceded to the Democrats. But in
Maryland which the Democrats car
ried for Warfeld in 1908 by 1865, the
following year the presidential vote
was so close that one Roosevelt cleo
tor was chosen.
The Rhode Island Democrats last
year elected Higgins governor by 1918
but they lost the state to Roosevelt
in 1904 by 16, 1865. OF the two repre-
sentatiyes in congress elected last
year, Granger a Democrat and Capron
a Republican.
In 1904 the Republicans carried
New Jersey for Roosevelt by 80,59S
and for Stokes for governor by 5l,644
Last year, however, the Democrats
had a majority OF two in the state as
sembly.
Guild was elected governor Of Mass
achusetts last year by 3O,233 but the
tariff-revision issue, if the Democrats
are capable of taking advantage Of it,
may be a determ ined factor in the
elestion.
General significance will also at
tach to the election in New York of
two judges of the court of appeals,
the assembly and possibly of the state
senate. Among the state officials
elected last year Gov. Hughes was
The only Republican.

W|TTE SUCCEEDS PRICHARD
AS U. S. MARSHAL

McAlester, l, t., Oct. sc. w.
Witte, Of Poteau, was yesterday sworn
in as United States marshal for the
Central district of Indian Territory,
relieving George X. Pritchard, Of
Bakersville, N. q. Mr.. Prichard has
held the Office here for the past three
years. When Judge Witte was sworn
in Judge Clayton, who administered
the oath Of Office, took occasion to
pay handsome tribute to Marshal
Prichard as an efficient officer. Judge
Witte has lived at Poteau for the past
twelve years and is now mayor Of that
town. He is also a coal operator. No
changes will be made in the deputies,
as it is understood that the office will
last only a few weeks at the outside.

uNLucKY ro MEEr WOMAN.
Peculiar Superstition Believed in by
Irish Fisherman.

Superstitions as to its being un-
lucky to meet a woman when setting
out to fish, or upon any journey by
sea, are not uncommon. From a
headland on the Donegal coast the
writer was one day anxiously watch
ing small smack beating across the
bay against a heavy sea and stin
breeze, which had suddenly sprung
up. After long hard fight for it
the little craft made the pier in safe
ty, and upon condolences being Of
fered the skipper on his recent hard
ships he said: Sure, what better
luck could / have? Didn't | meet
red-headed woman in Sligo this morn
ing the moment left my lodging
to walk down to the boatl" In this
case the color of the womans hair
and the fact of her being the first
person met with after the man left
his house seemed to be the determin-
ing factors in the days luck. But in
other places the objection to such an
encounter embraces hair Of all shades
and any hour of the day, it being
amply sufficient to bring the ill-luck
that any woman should pass you by
just as you are walking down to the
boat. Only few weeks ago the
writer visited a small fishing village
on the Galway coast, and just before
getting on his car to return home
was chatting to the landlady Of the
little inn. A strapping young fisher
man, who was walking down the road
toward the harbor suddenly stopped,
climbed over the fence, and made
his way to his boat across the fields.
The writer observed to his hostess
that the young fellow must have mis-
taken him for a process-server with
writ for him. She laughed rather de-
risively, and said Its not you at
all, sir, he's afraid OF, but me! He's
just going fishing, and would not pass
me by if you gave him the fll Of his
hat of goldi"

SENATOR COCKRELL
Gives His Own Rule for the Attain
ment of longevity For Thirty
Years U. S. Senator.

Washington, Oct. 4.-Francis Marion
Cockrell, for thirty years United
States senator from Missouri now a
member of the interstate commerce
commission, is 73 years OF age today.
Many Of the friends OF the ex-senator
dropped into his Office to extend con-
gratulations. Nearly everybody in Of
fetal life remembered that this was
Senator Cockpell's S birthday. Mr.. Cock
rell would admit only that he was 7S
wears young. He did not celebrate ex-
cept in his usual way, by hard work,
when not interrupted by callers.
'Drink sparingly, eat regularly, get
plenty of sleep and work hard, If you
wart to live to green old age" he
said, in reply to an inquiry as to how
he had managed to live so long and
SO well. Barring the illness from
which he has just recovered, he has al
ways been healthy and rugged. That
indisposition followed his work Incl
dent to the preparations made in the
summer of 1906 to put the Hepburn
rate law into effect. He now looks
better than he has for years.
The senator says when he came to
Washington thirty years ago he was
pretty green, and decided that he
would keep away from temptation.
He cut out the use OF liquor, except
for medicine, and even turned Ills wine
glasses down at public functions. He

Earl Basey Dead.

Died, on the night Of October 4, at
his home two miles east Of Vinita,
Earl Basey in his fourteenth year.
1t was brief but sad sentence that
records the end of human life Of one
so young. A clear character, a pure,
white spotless life was his--and that
was all. He simply lived for those
about him it seemed, loved and labor
ed until at last he laid life's burdens
down and calmly addressed himself to
that long yoyage-led alone by the
loving hand of faith that sustains
when all else fails his life was SO

recalled at one time he was dining at
the White House with the president
and Mrs. Grant. He turned his wine
glass down, as was his custom. Mrs.
Grant was greatly astonished to find a
Democrat from Missouri who did not
drink.
For many years the senator confined
his MONDAY lunch to three red apples.
Recently he had to abandon apples as
a diet. He eats oysters instead.
