STORMY CONVENTION IN NEW
YORK WHEN ROOSEVELT WON

dlsbpUo,o. men who worshipod then

and liberties are fearing revolution.

Recalls Some History.
"When given power TO shoot the
trusts, Doe drew a line between the
good ones and the bad ones The steel
and sugar trusts were the good ones,
those which would not help along the
shooters political schemes were the
bad ones AS now those who cry
Vive le Roi" are good Republicans,
and those who arc putting patriotism
above all else and therefore will not
join the cry, are bad Republicans.
"While under the table ! touch Coxs
feet, can not with Lorimer sit down
and eat Fellow citizens Of New York
has the correspondence with Hartman
passed from your minds? While the
firm was Roosevelt & Hartman and
not Roosevelt d Lincoln, the shooter
and railroad man were engaged in a
joint plan TO get money, and, in writ
ing the senior member of the firm
assured Hartman that they were both
practical men and had better keep the
/ partnership under cover. Every gen.
Grafton gives opportunity to the pa
triotic and brave to keep our ship of
state headed in the right direction,
and all Of us business men, farmers,
/ laboring men, professional men, and,
/ yes, even the women of this country
may now, if they will, join in the great
/ fight begun in the convention to pre-
vent a third term or something worse.
No one enjoyed Grubers speech more
than Colonel Roosevelt, who chuckled
/ repeatedly. The delegates Kissed Cru.

( that two-thirds of Roosevelt's strength
in the convention came from Federal
/ oftice-holders.
Roosevelt Likes The Roast.
At one point the jeers and cat calls
became so great that Colonel Roose
welt leaped to his feet and. waving his
hands at the delegates, cried: q ask
a full hearing for Colone1 Gruber."
The speaker continued, but Kisses
almost drowned his attacks on Colonel
Roosevelt.
Then came the roll call.
Chairman Woodruff, amid thunder
ing cheers, announced that Colone
Roosevelt was duly elected temporary
chairman, and named Vice-President
Sherman and State Superintendent Of
Prisons ]. V. Collins as a committee
to escort Colonel Roosevelt to the
chair.
Mr.. Sherman came smilingly down
J the aisles and SHOOK hands cordially
with his successful opponent, congra
tulating him on his victory. The Col
onel whispered something in the Vice
Presidents ear, while the convention
shouted and cheered. There was a
volley of cheers when Vice-President
Sherman introduced Colonel Roose.

Hot Roast for Roosevelt.

Twelve years ago on this platform
warned a Republican convention
against turning the executive mansion
into d shd)ting, gallery. My advice was
not needed. Since that memorable
day the man who has ever since been
shooting has seen his party organi1a-
ton divided in every state, his party
candidate Overwhelmingly defeated,
business depressed and the intelligent
and honest workingman without EN-.
ployment and hungry. Looking for
other fields for shooting practice, this
man is now shooting atthe courts and
its Judges. Himself posing as a law
yer, who never had case or drew a
brief, he now finds sport in holding up
the courts and judges to the scorn OF
the mob. But this is not a new symp-
tom. 1t is an old disease. This apos-
tie of derringer practices, while he
was President, abused Judge Hum
phrey, a gentleman and honest man,
for rendering a decision which was
made according to the law, and which

BATTLE WON IN KANSAS.

William Alien White says in the
Emporia Gazette Wednesday:
1.-The fight to free the republican
party of Kansas from the domination
of the great business interests of the
east is won The fight was won on
the moral side of the tariff Issue.
Little else was discussed. Little
else interested the people When Bris-
tow, Murdock, Stubbs and Cummins
talked to the people Of Kansas they
turned out by the acre. When Senator
Curtis and the standpat congressman
tried to make TAFT the issue, the peo-
pie turned away Taft was dragged
into this fight as a shield for his
friends. He was battered down un.
necessarily in order to rebuke those
who sought to hide behind him. His
share in the defeat is none the less
humiliating because his friends, those
whom he consulted and favored in
Kansas matters, selshly brought his
name into the contest. The men who
are making the fight for free state
ignored Taft His name was not men
toned in any way by those who were
making the insurgent fight But the
standpatters from governor down to
congressman said: "A vote against
us is vote against Taft" So the peo-
pie voted against the stand-patters
and let the inference go where it
would This is unfortunate but Taft
has his cowardly friends, who hoped
to conjure with his name, to thank
for the result of the issue.
In state matters the result is the
same. Senator Curtis and his machine
were looking for trouble. They faxed
up a tax issue that any child could
see in moment was pure jugglery of
words and figures. Curtis lined him
self up behind Taft's coat tails.
brought out a candidate for governor
poured thousands from the big inter
ests into Kansas, made the Issue
squarely between himself and Stubbs,
and stubbs won by an overwhelming
majority. It was Curtis who dragged
Taft into it. 1t was Curtis who said
that vote ior Stubbs was a vote
against Taft, and the people accepted
that issue and nearly doubled Stubbs
majority of two years ago. But Taft
was not the issue in this fight. The
rebuke for him was merely political
not fundamental The issue was the

OKLAHOMA REPUBLICANS.

The failure Of the Oklahoma republi-
cans to meet the expectation Of the
people has been the trouble with the
party in that state from the time Of
nominating the delegates to the con-
stitutional convention in 1906 down to
the date of the primary election in
1910. But after every election, result
ing in defeat to the party, the republi-
cans wonder what brought about the
democratic victory.
The republicans permitted the spe-
cial interests to dominate their nom
nations tc sae constitutional conyen-
ton What few OF them were elected
opposed the best features of the con-
stitution upon which Oklahoma was
admitted. In the fight for admission
the Oklahoma republicans took an alb.
surd position; the position of hostility
to the movement without any appar-
ent reason for such an attitude except
that the Standard Oil and the rail-
roads objected to the constitution.
This year the Oklahoma republi.

state officials of Oklahoma in the re-
cent application for writ of pro-
hibition against District Judge Hus-
tons restraining order.
The petition for rehearing was
served on Guthrie attorneys Wednes-
day afternoon and it is expected that
it will come up for argument in the
supreme court in the near future.
The petition sets UP the claim that
the recent decision of the supreme
court is in conflict with the constitu-
ton and the express statues Of Okla
homa. which provide that the state
officials of Oklahoma shall maintain
Offices at the state capital and that
they shall transact their official bust
ness there.
The petition sets up that the people
of Oklahoma at the special election
June IL, fixed Oklahoma City as the
state capital and that Oklahoma City
became the immediate capital on the
announcement of the official vote by
the governor by reason of the fact
that measures which are initiated by
the people are emergency measures
and take effect Immediately.
The petition sets up that inasmuch
as state officers are compelled by the
constitution to maintain their offices
at the capital, 1t is incumbent on the
court to Immediately pass upon the
question Of the validity Of this initist-
ed law adopted by the people June
II, and to answer the question:
where is the capital?"
The petition also cites the provision
of the constitution which provides
that the supreme court itself must sit
at the state capital, and there is
hint that the supreme court should
take judicial notice of the fact that
the people on June II chose Oklahoma
City as the capital
The petition urges that the question
as to whether or not the $600,000 ap-
preparation in the capital was legal
should not be mixed UP with the other
question as to which city is the legal
capital of Oklahoma, and that even
though the appropriation might be il
legal, yet the removal of the capital
could hardly be legally made
Where is the eapital?" and ais it
legal to appropriate 100000 to buy
land on which to build new capitol
buiIding?g are different questions,

vlNlTA HIGH SCHOOL NOTES:

The Vinita high school will open
this fall with more than one hundred
students and for the first time in the
history of vinita full four year course
will be offered and there will be a
large class in each year of the high
school and we are expecting many
more than just our regular pupils to
join us from the surrounding coun-
try.
All of the work done by our high
school is acceptable at our university
and also by the best colleges so any
young man or young lady who ex-
poets to go on higher with their edu-
cation cannot afford to stay away
from our school at all There is not
a high school in Oklahoma that is of
fering a better course than is the Vim
ita high school.
The teachers in the high school are
all experienced and some are gradu-
ates of universities and state normal
schools and with these conditions,
nothing but the best kind of work can
be expected in our school, and with the
city and board of education standing
behind u.s. the results will be made
greater
Through the kindness of Mrs. W. b.
Coley, the public library has been
turned over to the high school and we
wish to thank her and all of the ladies
who were interested in same and SO
kindly gave up their interests in favor.
Of the high school There are many
that will be of great use to-
our school work and it should not be
long new until we have a fine collec-
ton Of books with the money that is
allowed US each year for such mater
ial.
If there are any pupils either in the
city or country who are expecting to
enter our high school this fall, who
have not been in before, it would be
well and likely save time for them to
see the city superintendent in person
or write him in regard to the matter.

cans have renominated their stand
pat congressman. That means the
loss of what little foothold the party
still has in the new state.
Why is 1t that the republicans of
Oklahoma are willing to surrender all
hope of victory at the polls in order
to maintain patronage-controlling
machine? Surely the majority of that
party is not more deeply interested in
the division of postofiices than in max
ing their party factor in the develop
ment OF such splendid young state.
But thus far they have been content
to allow their party to stand in the
position of being mere offlce-broking
