TEXT BOOK PROBLEM
BOOK DEALERS REFUSING TO
EXCHANGE FOR OLD BOOKS
AS PER AGREEMENT.

Guthrie, Okla. Sept. 19.-State
Superintendent Cameron was notl
fled yesterday that book dealers
handling the books of Ginn & Co, a
publishing firm which secured near
ly a third of the contracts from the
state text book commission, were
refusing TO accept old books on
exchange, as stipulated in the agree
ment between the book companies
and the state. Mr.. Cameron imme-
diately telegraphed an ultimatum,
holding the publishers to their con
tract. The publishers disclaim all
knowledge of the refusal of the re
tail dealers to accept exchange.
The skirts of the book concern
while all Oklahoma is buying its
school books and paying cash, the
state is powerless, apparently. With
in the period it would take for the
company to reach an understanding
with the scores of dealers the pur-
chasing of the books would be prac-
tically completed.

In the shape of relief" said SUI.

Local union men have declared
through their official body. the Ard
more Trades Council, that they will
render the commissioner of labor all
the assistance within ethir power to
the end that the eight-hour law
may be enforced in this section of
the state. At meeting of the coun-
cil Friday evening 1t was decided
that all members keep an eye on
those who violate this law, and re-
port such violations to the commits
sioner of labor, who will be asked
to come to Ardmore and carry out
the provision of the law. "All labor.
ing men of this country have been
striving for the past six years TO
establish an eight-hour workday on
all state, county and municipal work.
and nov that their fondest hopes
have been made law, they do not
propose that 1t shall be violated
without contest" say the local Of
ficials of the council.
There seems to be some question
as to the extent of the law regard
ing the erection OF school buildings
for township and other improve.
ments Of similar nature, but the
local union men claim that all such
work comes under the head of mu.

Mr. Daugherty, commissioner of
labor, will doubtless visit the city
in the near future aud consult
with those interested in the en-
forcement of the eight-hour law.

CANNON MAY PULL THROUGH
Majority of the Republicans viii
Support the Speaker-Rules
Will Be Amended.

washington, Dec. Friends of
Speaker Cannon profess to be highly
pleased with the responses to letters.
which Representative James r. Mann
of Chicago has been sending to the
members announcing that the Illinois
delegation will present the name of Jo-
seph @. Cannon for speaker of the Six
ty-first congress. They state that these
answers assure the reelection of the
speaker.
Representative Mann today admitted
that he had received unequivocal an
sWers from more than a majority of the
Republicans of the house saying that
they would support Mr.. Cannon This
number has not yet reached a majority
of the house Mr.. Mann explained that
a number, principally new members,
had written that they desired to look
over the situation and investigate the
subject more thoroughly before reply
ing in a way that might be considered
as a pledge. II is said that only one
member of the house has replied that
he will oppose the reelection of MI
Cannon as speaker
Attention is gradually shifting from
the speakership to the proposal 10
amend the rules of the house. There
are indications that the speaker may
not offer much opposition TO some
amendments at least.

Restrictive of the Standard?" said Mr.
Kellogg.
Mr. Archbold was questioned about the
purchase of the Globe Refining company
and Western Pipe Line company. Other
pipe lines which were taken over by the
Standard were subjects of interrogation
by the federal counsel. Mr.. Archbold
said there were several pipe lines which
the Standard cid not own.
The witness said that the Standard S

of way of railroads, which were paid for.
The vice president of the Standard said
the refineries which had been purchased
were not disInantled, but rather taken
down and available parts consolidated
with the larger refineries of the Standard
Would Consult Counsel.
Mr.. Kellogg wanted to know If it was
not fact that the Republic Oil company
was organized by clerks in the Standard s
office and that for a long time its real
ownership was not made known. Mr..
Archbold said he knew nothing of it, Mr..
Kellogg asked the witness to produce a
list of all companies which had been ac-
quired by the Standard from 1882 to 1899.
Mr.. Archbold said he would consult with
counsel on the request.
Mr.. ArchbOld said he was one of the
owners of stock of the Acme Oil com
pany of New York. which he said, was
held under a common ownership with
others and was not under the domination
OF the Standard.
Adjournment was taken until tomorrow
when Mr.. Archbold will be further cross
examined.
