HASKELL STATES POSITION
ATTORNEY GENERAL HAS NO
POWER TO BRING SUITS UN.
LESS DIRECTED BY HIM.

Guhric. Okla, July - The posi-
tion OF Governor Haskell as given
by the chief executive in a formal
statement ON suits brought by the
attorney general is as follows:
First. The attorney general is tae
Law officer for the executive depart.
mcnt without any power or authori
ty to begin any suit II the attorney
general should be advised that there
are any violations of the law. II is his
duty to report these facts to the gov.
onor, and bring the suit only after
The governor directs. Up to date. in
every case where the attorney general
asked permission 10 bring a suit. the
governor has issued an order: but In
many instances the attorney general
has brought suits without consulting
the governor and the governor knew
nothing about them until he saw
them In the newspapers.
The cases heretofore brought to
prevent the Standard Oil company
from laying gas pipe lines Including
the one the morning statehood was
proclaimed, were brought by order OF
the governor himself. and I'm the first
case, the attorney general being alb.
sent the governor directed another
attorney to represent the state and
bring the suit The position OF the
governor in this case Is based on the
provisions of the constitution and laws
Of Oklahoma, which place the su-
pieme executive authority In the
hands of the governor.
The two cases started by the attor
ney general against the Prairie Oil
and Gas company while the governor
was attending The Denver convention
were brought without the attorney
general making any statement to or
request of the governor.
The governors position as TO these
two cases IS. that he is having the
facts examined into, and II there Is
a violation OF law, he will have the
cases prosecuted; Otherwise, he win
have them dismissed The attorney
general has never made any report
to the governor or submitted any
statement Of facts concerning either
Of these cases mp TO this date. al

The cardianl was born In Louisiana
July %, 1884 In his infancy he was
taken TO ireland. where he received
his early education. Returning to
America, he graduated from st
Charles College, and on June 30 1861,
was ordained priest He made rapia
advancement and in 1865 was cousc-
Grated bishop and vicar apostolic of
North Carolina. In 1877 he succeeded
to the see of Baltimore. I'm 1856 he
received the crowning honor Of his
life, and tribute was paid to the
American church, by his elevation to
the college of cardinals.
With all his learning and attain

most modest of men, and is dearly be.
loved by the priests under his charge
and thoroughly admired and esteemed
by citizens of every creed. The per
scnal habits Of the cardianl are of the
simplest character His daily life Is
one of incesant activity, and viewing
his age and Slight frame, the wonder
is how he can possibly accomplish so
mucn.
As a preacher he is always learned
and interesting and often eloquent.
His sermons he writes out in advance
but he is also a good extempore ora

ducung the great functions of the
church, he Is never Hurried or nervous,
but when he rises to make an address

is that his sermons should be- as good
