Progress Toward Liberality.

Not in fifty years have such liberal
ideas regarding the government of this
House prevailed among members. | ex-
pect to see in comparatively short while
the standing committees of this House
meeting i'm open sessions instead of Sc
cret sessions as now. OF course. the
military and naval and perhaps other
committees would have to meet in secret
occasionally as a matter of public policy,
but secret ways OF doing business here
are on the wane and will soon be over.
MANY interestin0 and perhaps startling
developments will result before this
House adjourns sine die"
Logical Coalition.
Tt is pointed out by those favorable
to the election Of Asher Kinds as Speaker
that a combination of the republican In
surpents and democrats can logically be
effected to accomplish this result. For
instance, the out-and-out insurgents, who
possessed the courage Of their convictions
to the extent that they voted to depose
Speaker Cannon, would be justified as
to the sincerity of their arguments that
the Sneaker should be shorn Of power.
The near insurgents, who voted to en-
large the rules committee. but who did
not stand up to their guns on the PROPOSE
t,or to depose the Speaker and who have
been hearing from their districts in con-
sequence, would find this proposition a
safe and certain means Of escape from
their present embarrassing situation. And
the democrats being committed on vari-
Gus ways, including their vote on the
Burleson resolution. to the deposition of
the Speaker, would probably be glad to
vote for the election of Kinds to succeed
Cannon. They realize that they couldn't
possibly elect their minority leader,
Champ Clark, to the speakership in a
House with large republican majority
even admitting that that majority is dis
orpanized-and they undoubtedly would
be glad to take half loaf rather than
no bread at all
But aside from all this it must not be
forgotten that there is not member of
the House, republican or democrat. radi-
cal or conservative. who has not the
greatest respect for Mr.. Kinds ability as
a parliamentarian. They believe that
Kinds "Precedents,' eight Volumes of
which were published a couple of years
ago by the government, is the most valu-
able work OF its kind extant. And they

CRUCE GIVES VIEWS ON

follows:
II never eyaded the prohibition
question. / said three years ago and

hat has no place In partisan politics
A man can be d good Democrat and be
an anti.prohibitionist And want to
say right now that am not making
this contest as a prohibitionist candi-
date for governor, nor am running as
an anti-prohibitionis candidate for
governor. but am Democratic can
didate for governor and It is the votes
OF the Democrats of this state that
expect to nominate me and to elect
me as governor Of Oklahoma.

tion, as have stated. that It was not

Splendid Meetings.

The school house campaign to bring
the School of Agriculture to the at
tention of the people of Stevens Coun-
ty and neighboring counties is meet
ing with considerable success. So
far meetings have been held in the
following townships: Pepperton,
Synnes, Framnas, Eldorado, Stevens,
Rendsville. Swan Lake, Donnelly and
Baker. The meetings outside of the
county have just began with one this
week at Cyrus. This was we'll at
tended. To illustrate the possibilities
of agricultural education, the subject
of seed corn and it's improvement is
discussed. Until one understands
the subject, one little realizes what a
splendid educational subject matter
exists in connection with study of
the corn plant. Although natural
selection aided by man has improved
corn from a dwarfed, nearly useless
ear which grew on the top of stalk,
to the present conditions when one ear
a few years ago was considered suffi-
ciently valuable to command a price
of $3.50, yet we are just beginning
to realize the possibilities of further
development, and corn is only one of
the many interesting and valuable
subjects that may be handled in a
school of Agriculture. 1t is hoped
all will pull together for a splendid
school that will be of real practical
value to this section of the state.
Following is the schedule Of meet
ings for next week:
Monday evening, September 26-
In the school house or at the public
hall in the village of Starbuck, as the
people there may ARRANGE.
Thursday evening, September 29-
at the school house in the village of
Tintah or at the public hall as the
people there may arrange.
Friday evening, September 30

school house as the people there may

MISS EDMONDs WINS.
Tribune Piano Contest Closed
Last Saturday.

The Tribune's popular voting con-
test closed last Saturday afternoon,
and the capital prize of Clarendon
piano was won by Miss Josephine Ed
monds. Miss Mable Whitmore was
second, and chose the lady's gold
watch, while the third prize goes to
Mrs. R. J. Ross, and she receives
the silver water set. Miss Minnie
Seaman won the fourth prize of a
gold bracelet.
The piano was placed on display in
one of the show windows at Tryon &
Hogan's furniture store early in the
afternoon, and was admired by many
callers. 1t remained on display there
for couple of days, and on Tuesday
was delivered to the home of M. z.
Grove, where Miss Edmonds resides.
The piano and the other prizes were
of good quality, exactly as represent
ed, and all of the contestants are we'll
pleased with the prizes they received.
The contest has also been a source of
satisfaction to The Tribune, for we
fell that we conducted it fairly, and
can be proud Of the fact that every
thing resulted so pleasantly. A con-
siderable number of new subscribers
were added to our list, and a num-
ber of the votes were also contributed
by the old subscribers, especially here
in Morris, but we can frankly say that
we do not feel that there was the re-
sponse there should have been consid-
ering the high grade paper we are
publishing. The Tribune is the best
and newsiest paper in Stevens county
and we want to place it in practically
every home in the county. This con-
test is only the beginning of a sub
scription campaign which will not end
until that result is reached. The Tri-
bune now has a good subscription list,
but we want to make it still larger,
and while this contest did not do all
that we might have expected, yet we
do feel grateful to the many friends
who helped make it the success it was.

Ed. Wunsch acted as judges and count
ed the ballots at the Citizens Bank
last Saturday afternoon, and found
that the following number of votes
