The political authorities in Oklahoma
are trying to make its educational funds
serve three purposes-the education of
machine and the interest OF a sectarian
propaganda. The facts which. in our
judgment. justify this statement are as
follows:
Last March, under a ruling OF the attor-
ney general. the control Of the state
university was taken from the board of
Regents and vested in the board OF edu-
cation. Immediately thereafter Or. Boyd
was removed from the residency of the
university and A Grant Evans. who
had done effective campaign work for
the governor, was appointed in his place.
The supreme court of the state reversed
the ruling of the attorney general, and so
undid the work Of the Board of Edu-
cation. The Board of Regents OF the
state university thereupon proceeded to
reverse it's former action and even outdo
the action Of the board Of education.
President Boyd was a second time re-
moved, and with him more than a third
of the faculty, including three of four
deans, four heads of departments. an as
sistant professor, the treasurer and sew
eral instructors. Even so humble servi-
tors of the university as the night watch
man, the carpenter and the mead janitor
were not exempt from the general decapi-
tation. This action has had the approval
OF Governor Haskell; indeed, it has been
taken under his administration and
through his influence.
Why this general removal?

Two defenses of this action are reported
to us. First, that the men removed were
"~carpetbaggers." Oklahoma was not
opened to settlement until April. 1889.
Every person in Oklahoma over 10 years
of age is. therefore. a carpetbagger, if by
that term is meant a recent immigrant.
Some of the men removed have been citi-
gems of Oklahoma three or four times
as long as its present governor. Is he a
''carpetbagger?" Mr.. Boyd is one of the
oldest citizens in the territory. Sixteen
or seventeen years ago the pioneers. look

The removal could not be an endeavor
to secure superior scholarship. DIR. Boyd
Is a college graduate and a doctor Of
philosophy; Mr.. Evans is not a college
graduate and has no college degree.
Among the professors removed one was
a graduate of Harvard, one a graduate
of Johns Hopkins university, three had
the degree of of master of arts Cone from
Columbia, one from Harvard, one from
Chicago, and one had taken such high
rank in the University of Michigan that
he was appointed by the bureau of stand
ards in Washington for special work in
determining the measurements of cleo
trical currents. Some of them nave al
ready been called to other institutions
of learning at increased salary. Among
the new appointees, the new dean of APP
piled sciences was the principal of a sec
ondary school for girls in Oklahoma, the
new head of philosophy and psychology
was an eighth grade teacher from the
same state, the new head Of the English
department is a young man with one
years experience in collegiate teaching.
We have not learned that any one of the
new appointees had collegiate advantages
equal to those Of the men whom they sup
planted. In this statement we purposely
omit names because we wish our readers
to consider the principles. not the per-
sons, involved. q
The removal could not be due to the
'pernicious activity in politics of the
persons removed. None of them were
active in politics. President Boyd, al
though a republican, pevsr belonged to
any political Organization, never at
tended a political convention in the state
even as a spectator and never inquired
into, and never knew, unless by accident,
the political views of any member of the
faculty.
