HASKELL oEIoUNcED
BY STATE OFFICER

Guthrie O.da., Sept. 23-"President
Rooseveits statement concerning Gov
Haskells alleged Standard Oil con-
nections seems to me a very mild re-
buke." declared Charles West. Demo
cratic attorney general Of Oklahoma.
when shown the presidents letter to
William ]. Bryan by an Associated
Press representative tonight.
Mr.. Vests statement In full fol-
lows:
"The presidents statementas to the
Prairie OIL & Gas company suit is
less than the whole matter in its
whole iniquity. because on the 23rd
of April / had informed the governor
that teh action taken by the Prairie
company was illegal and should be
enjoined and that l had brought an
injunction suit. At that time. April
23. the governor agreed with me as
to the illegality Of the action and ap-
proved the bringing Of the injunction
"The same day the governor left
the state to go to Denver the Prairie
company started dts respassing This
1 believe was prearranged between
the governor andthe Prairie company
as the Prairie company rushed lay
ing of its pipe line during the absenc
OF the governor from the state.
"I wired the governor on the first
of July. asking whether he had given
the Prairie company PERMISSION 10
build their line. His reply evaded
my sole question and instead OF an
swering it, he said that he was sat
isfied that the Prairie companywouio
not violate the law.
Between the 22nd OF April and
the 22nd Of July Gov. Haskell rece's-
ed no advice from me as his legai ao
wiser as to the matter and If he had
received advice from his assistant at
torneys general, he did not do me tnt
honor of submitting the same TO me.
"When he heard of the bringing OF
the suit he directed the acting Cover
nor to order me to dismiss the suit
and dndulged In isolent language 10
the effect that he would not tolerate
any proceedings by me except at nus
direction. The use Of this insuieihs
language regarding me. together VIII
his sudden change Of heart between
April and July, evidences that some
very deep and controlling motive Oh

Washington. Sept, 23.-President
Roosevelt tonight. following upon a
prolonged conference with members
Of the cabinet at the White House.
prepared and gave out his reply to
William J. Bryan, the Democratic
candidate. relative to w. R. Hearst's
charges that Gov. Haskell, treasurer
OF the Democratic campaign commit
tee. had represented Standard Oil in
terests both in Ohio and Oklahoma.
charges. promising that in the ev-
ent OF their substantiation Gov. Has
kell would be eliminated from the
champaign.
Diminishing the Ohio case. which in.
volved an allegation Of attempted bri
berry, with the explanation that he
had made no direct charge against
Gov. Haskell as regards that particu-
lar instance, President Roosevelt TAX
es up the matter of the Prairie Oil &
Gas company and argues tnat Gov.
Haskells action in stopping legal pro
ceedings begun by attorney general c
Oklahoma, demonstrates conclusively
that he was controlled by the great
corporation to which the Oklahoma
company was subsidiary.
After contrasting Mr.. Bryan's de-
tense Of Gov. Haskell as against Jud-
ge Tafts reputation Of Senator For
aker, in connection with the Hearst
charges against the Ohio senator. the
president proceeds to declare that
Gov. Haskell's utter unfitness for
association with any man anxious to
appeal to the American people on a
moral issue, has been abundantly
shown by other octs Of his as COVER
nor Of Oklahoma"
The president condemns Gov. Has
kell's conduct In connection with the
various matters as disgraceful and
scandalous.
The latter portion Of Mr. Roose-
velt's deliverance is devoted to crit
icism of MIR. Bryan's plan for regula-
ting the trusts, which he character
izes as q measure that sounds more
radical than any advocated by the Re
publicans. but which In practice
would not work.
Concluding. Mr.. Roosevelt declares
that No law defyins corporations has
anything to fear from Mr.. eryan
"savs what Il would suffer from the
general paralysis Of business" which
would follow Lonocratie success.

tion could help was the Standard Oil
company and that he hazarded as
much as he did for them after his
sudden change of heart supplies the
necessary factor for any intelligent
man to reckon whether the governor
of Oklahoma has a leaning toward
the Standard OIL company, and there
fore the presidents statement seems
to me a very mild rebuke."

Apparently some stray sire from a

DYNAMITE OUTRAGE
Another One Discovered on Iron Rance
In Minnesota.

1Hosh0I VIC DISCOVeTcQ on iron RanQe
In Minnesota.
Another dynamite outrage on the
range has been discovered and made
public and Nick Brickirch was ar
rested at Hibbing. accused Of having
attempted to blow up boarding house
conducted by Matt Kronick near Hib-
bling. Kronick stated that he found
the banking about the house torn up
and space under the house large
enough for a man to get through. Up
on investigation he found fuse partly
burned leading to bag in which were
four sticks of dynamite, and beside it
were unburned matches. Kronick sus-
poets Brickirch of the decd for two
reasons. For some time prior to last
October Brickirch had been employed
under kronick. but had been dis
charged. Since then Kronick says he
has been having trouble with him.
A few days prior to the outrage
Brickirch had a suit of underwear.
Identical with that wrapped about the
dynamite, washed at the Kronick
house, according to the latter.

The Fairies

I have watched on moonlit nights for tho
fairies of the lea
Underneath the 'witching sky
Watched and waited for their cry
But the harpies and their crew scamper
off at sight of me-
And the dryads in the wood-I have
sought them by the stream,
Softly called to them, "Ho! Ho!"
Hank! They answer me go! 'o!'
Then, they dimly fade away, like the
fancies Of dream!
Up the airy mountain side, through the
rushy glen, by day
I have sought them, staff in hand,
Sought the elfn's fairyland-
Ever, always just beyond, I can hear
them glide away!
In the deep and tangled vale, like the
fairy elf. Success,
They delight in haunting me
With their fleeing revelry-
Sprites and COLLINS and Queen Nab, mid
wife of the wilderness,
Down the river, up the hill, where the
squirrel hides his pelf,
Underneath the lilac leaf,
Just behind the harvest sheaf,
Even in the blue-bell's cup, I have sought
to find an elf.
Have you seen Success and Fame, fairy
daughters of fay?
Sisters two I fain would find
Where the woodland pathways wind-
If they touch you with their wands,
you are famous from that day!
Have you seen the elves at play? Have
you passed the harpies band?
While my light holds out to burn,
Who will tell me where they turn?
Who will guide weary wight to thu
haunts of fairyland?
Who will bid them bide a wee In theil
honeysuckle den?
Who will speak to them and say:
"Touch him with your wand today?
Give to him the magic spell of the fairiea
in the glen"?

In a speech in Washington this
week W. j. Bryan says the democrats
shall incorporate in their national
PLATFORM all of Roosevelt's policies.
Then if they could kidnap Mr.. Roose-
velt and force him to become their
candidate, the decrepit old party
might stand some show. But if the
Roosevelt's policies are such good
thing, and everybody believes they
are, why not disband the democratic
party and let everybody line up be-
hind Taft, who firmly stands for and
has helped formulate those same
policies?
