CHAPMAN ADMITS
RECEIVING MONEY
Railroads paid For information Which
Corporation Commission Has
Always Furnished Free.

Guthrie, Okla, July 29,-The action
OF Chairman Jack Love, Of the cor
poration commission, in summarily
dismisslng w. L. Chapman, the sec
retary of the commission, appears to
meet the approval Of most of the peo-
pie who are acquainted with the
facts.
1t is not charged that Mr.. Chapman
has violated any statutory law, or
committed any crime, but 1t certainly
is creditable in the corporation com
mission in seeing that there is no
taint attached to the action Of any
Of their employees.
Mr.. Chapman acknowledges to hay
ing received compensation from near
" all of the railroads in the state
for furnishing information which the
corporation commission has always
furnished free Of charge. It is the
policy Of the corporation commission
to hold every session as an open
session and to furnish all Information
free of charge.
The corporation commission of Ok
lahoma has gained national reputa-
tlon for the efficient manner in which
1t is serving the people. II has stood
as a guardian for the rights Of the
people against the greediness OF great
corporations and they cannot afford
to do anything or have any employee
do anything that would even cause a
suspicion that they we're not to the
very best of their ability safeguard
ing the sacred rights of the people,
anc the people cannot help but be
suspicious of an employee who is re-
ceivlng monthly salary from railroad
companies for information that they
ara entitled to receive free of charge.
Chairman Jack Love is and will be
upheld in his actions by the people
Of the state regardless Of party aiiilia.
