Guthrie, Okla, Oct. .-Governor
Haskell has made public appeal to
the people of Oklahoma for money to
aid him in overcoming his enemies,
whom he declares are the enemies of

peal says:
LAS for myself 1 am not possessed
of wealth and receive salary but
barely enough for the expense of my
family and myself. am giving my
entire time to the welfare of Okla

all these interests only with the sup

the moral, but also some small fnan

items of expense can only be incurred
when l have the means to meet them
I am standing firmly for honest gov
ernment and against graft, greed and
corporate oppression. I ask assist
ance, not in large amounts, because a
few thousand dollars will be a start
for the fight, but I ask that the multi
tude weigh this matter and render
such financial assistance as they deem

Will RESUME THE
PURCHASE OF SILVER
Metal Needed for Supplying
Subsidiary Coins.

Washington, Oct. AL-Director of the
Mint Leach has announced that he
will this week resume the purchase of
fine silver for subsidiary coinage. He
states that he expects to purchase
about 1000 ounces each week for an
indefinite period.
Director Leach said he was conf,
dent purchases would be made as long
as there was an active demand for the
coin. The mint now has on hand only
about 100000 ounces of fine silver
and this supply would soon be ex.
hausted at the present rate of demand
For several months prior to the late
financial stringency the demand for
subsidiary coins was so active as to
necessitate the operation Of the mints
to their full capacity, but the demand
ton in the treasury in April last Of
about $27, 10000 in standard dollars
and $26,000,000 in subsidiary coins.
Early in the summer the call for silver
dollars became more active and soon
the supply was practically exhausted.
Attention was then directed to the
halves and other subsidiary coins with
the result that now there is only
about $21,O0O,00O available, notwith-
standing the fact that in September
$634,OO0 in silver subsidiary was
coined and added to the stock on
hand. Mr.. Leach expects a still
stronger demand when the cotton crop
begins to move and the decision to
purchase more silver is in anticipation

charges against Senator Foraker and
Governor Haskell of Oklahoma and
read additional letters and affidavits
bearing upon the charges. Two let
ters addressed to Senator Foraker and

bearing date 1900, were read.
Mr.. Hearst paid his respects to

the action of the president in repudi-
ating Senator Foraker with that of
Mr.. Bryan, who, he said, was willing
to take the responsibility for Governor
Haskell's connection with the Demo-
cratic national committee.
Hearst said it was not true that he
and the president "have altered their
opinion Of each other and are work
ing now hand In hand" as the Demo-
Gratis charge.
