Madrk Seeking American Favor.

The only news received at the State De-
partment today from Nicaragua confirms
the newspaper report to the effect that
President Madriz is taking active meas
ures to bring to justice the persons re-
sponsible for the killing of the Americans,
Cannon and Groce. This information
came from the United States consul in
Managua and it is the opinion of the
State Department officials that Zelaya
may be implicated, together with Gen.
Medina and Solomon Selva. the attorney
who prosecuted the two men before the
court-martial Madriz is making every
effort to secure the favor of the United
States and to that end 1t is predicted
that he will go to any length, even to
the sacrifice Of his late friends. His uti-
mate object. 1t is declared, is to secure
the recognition of this government, and
if he deems it necessary he may endeavor
to have Zelaya returned to Nicaragua to
stand trial for completely in the death

MADRIZ SENDS MESSAGE
Believed That Prompt Action Will
Be Taken Against Those Who
Had Groce and Cannon Shot.

MANAGTA. Nicaragua. January 49,
President Madriz has sent a message to
the supreme court demanding the bring
ing to trial of all implicated in 1.-The mis-
carriage of justice which resulted in the
shooting of the Americans, Groce and
Cannon.
This is believed to indicate that prompt
action will be taken against Solomon
Selva. the prosecuting attorney in the
case; Gen. Medina. and possibly Zelaya
Medina is said to have documents ex-
cupating himself and establishing Ze-
laya's responsibility.

moved to Jail.
In his message President Madriz says:
''Ielaya does not appear officially in
the proceedings of the court-martial It
is possible, however. that Medina will be
able to produce documents which the
supreme court may consider sufficient for
the implication of Zelaya. There is no
evidence SO far that Zelaya was guided
by the proceedings, only that he refused
to commute the sentence and ordered
that the sentence be carried out. I know
that the sentence was illegal, according
to law higher than the executive"

OKLAHOMA MUNICIPAL
LEAGUE CALLED TO MEET
Muskogee, Okla, Dec IA.
To The Editor of the
Indian Chieftain,
Vinita, Oklahoma.

Vinita, Oklahoma.
Dear Sir: The Oklahoma Municipal
League was organized in Oklahoma
City on November 18th last. It's first
annual meeting will be held at the
state capitol during the early part of
January and while the legislature is in
session. This meeting will probably
continue three days during which
time interesting and instructive ad-
dresses will be made by persons com
petent to advise on municipal admins
tration. The call for this meeting will
be forwarded to the municipalities of
the state within the next few days. The
purpose of the league, generally speak
ing, is to obtain through cooperation
better municipal conditions in the
state, and to act in the capacity of a
clearing house between the cities of
Oklahoma by putting the experience
of all at the disposal of each.
Recognizing the influence exerted by
the papers of the state and that
through them much good can be ac-
complished for each and every COM
munity of the state, we are forward
ing this letter with the request that
it be published in order that your
readers may learn that Oklahoma, like
all other progressive states, has a
Municipal League and may know some
thing of its plans and purposes.
All the municipalities of the state
through their officers have been here
tofore advised by letter of the organiz-
alton of the Oklahoma Municipal
League, its purpose, and solicited to
become members thereof
Thanking you for such courtesies
as you may extend in this matter, we
remain,
Sincerely yours,
A. F. McGARR, President.

CLARK OUTLINES
HIS CAMPAIGN
Missouri Canidate for Speaker States
His Position on Tariff Revision
And Appointments.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 17.-Repre-
sentative Clark issued statement last
night fully outlining his platform as
prospective speaker of the democratic
house of representatives in the next
congress.
He proclaims himself in favor of
the appointment of committees of the
house by committee rather than by
the speaker, and he states as his be-
lief that the tariff should be revised
schedule by schedule, rather than by
a single bill
These two subjects, says Clark, are
the ones upon which he has been con
tinually importuned to make some
statement. The democratic members
of the house have sent out call for
caucus on January ~ of the demo-
cratic membership of the house of rep.
Iresentatives. Clark's statement is
botn an explanation call and declar-
alton of his own platform as the prob
able speaker.
The caucus will select the ways and
means committee and the rules com
mittee somewhat larger than the pres
ent committee of seven. Clark believes
that one of these committees should
then be empowered to select the other
committees of the house.
There are two theories of tariff
revision" says Clark in his statement.
Revision by one general bill and re-
vision by separate bills for the separ-
ate schedules. This matter is not of
the principle but the methods
Individually l prefer the scheme
of separate bills for the separate sched-
ules, taking the schedule first, perhaps
in certain cases having separate bills
for the particular items"
The statement proceeds to say that
whatever method is decided upon, as
full hearing and as comprehensive
as that which preceded the framing
of the Payne Aldrich law will be had
by the new ways and means commit
tee. Mr.. Clark declared that he is
heartily in favor of inviting to the eau
Gus all of the democratic members
elect
He goes on to say that his efforts
for the past two years have been di-
rected to the unihcation of the demo
Gratis in the house and for that reason
the members-elect should be given
every opportunity, if that unifcation
shall be maintained, to express in
name the members of the committee.
The weekly chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Craig County, Okla.) 1905-1913, 1910-12-23

are due to political appointments to
judicial and legal positions.
There appeared the old objection
that republican would be a more ef-
fectiye servant in a republican admin
istration than a democrat could be.
Even on the merits if the objection
ever had any, it is peculiarly inappro-
pirate to appointments of public pros
ecutors because the duties of these Of
ficers are purely the application of the
law, and there are no crimes, so far as
I have ever found, in the prosecution
of which it is important to know a
democrat from a republican Indeed,
it is vitality important not to know a
republican from a democrat, for the
moment any such observation occurs
there follow injustice, tyranny and the
betrayal of the oath of office"

Some Disagreement as to Proper Course to Pur
sue---Many Attorneys FAVOR No Action
Until Decision of Supreme Court on
Rehearing Is Announced--- --Soate
Officers Will Not Attempt to
MoUe Until Decision Is
Rendered.

Guthrie, OKLA, Dec. 17-Guthrie
will oppose in the courts the imme-
date removal of the capital from this
city to Oklahoma City.
This was practically agreed upon at
a meeting yesterday of the attorneys
who all along have represented this
city in the capital removal matters.
The only disagreement is regarding
the course to pursue. The attorneys
generally believe no move is neces-
sary, however, until the state supreme
court passes upon the case now pend
ing and in which arguments were made
two weeks ago wherein Guthrie's at
torneys declare there can be no cap
ital removal excepting by constitu-
tional amendment
1t is cited that the pending case will
act as an injunction against any at
tempted removal until the court gives
a decision. This seems to be the gen.
eral opinion too of the state officials
who declare they will make no
attempt to remove until the supreme
court itself declares for removal.
Presiding Justice Henry M. Furman
Of the state criminal court of appeals
yesterday withheld seven opinions that
were ready for handing down, until
the supreme court shall act on the
capital removal case.
1t is also shown that the district
court injunction granted last June by
Judge A. H. Huston here, and which
was affirmed recently by the state SUI
preme court, is still in force until the
supreme court shall hold otherwise.
1t is understood the supreme court
will not decide the pending case until
the regular court day. next Tuesday.
No doubt remains, if the court decis-
ion is against Guthrie on the point of
constitutional amendment to move the
capital, that Guthrie's attorneys will
then Immediately seek an injunction
against removal on the ground that
the special legislative session in Okla
homa City is illegal, as are also all its
acts. This is based on the allegation
that Governor Haskell could not legally

Officer Killed BY His Wife.

Holdenville, Okla, Dec. 1T. ].
Johns, justice of the peace for Bilby
township, in this (Hughes) county, a
wealthy farmer, was shot and killed
by his wife about 2:30 o'clock Friday
afternoon, after a quarrel with her.
Nothing has been heard from the dep
uty sheriff, who was sent from Holden
vile to arrest Mrs. Johns, and a tele-
phone message from that place says
she left there soon after the shooting.
The weekly chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Craig County, Okla.) 1905-1913, 1910-12-23

convene the legislature at any other
place than the seat of government
which the supreme court had said was
Guthrie.
Present indications are there will
be sufficient court actions to hold the
capital at Guthrie until after 1918,
until which date the enabling act pro-
vided the temporary capital should
be maintained here.
A few of the state officers, however,
believe there will be an immediate re-
moval. Colonel A. P. Watson of the
state corporation commission said he
would Immediately lease a residence
in Oklahoma City.
Leo Meyer, assistant secretary of
state, who will on January take his
seat as state auditor, stated last night
he would demand a court test of the
capital removal bill just passed by the
legislature because he alleges it takes
from the auditor the handling of mon
les to be used in connection with the
capital building construction.
IF no other person demands a test
of the bill, will" said Meyer. The
latter's friends declare this provision
was purposely aimed by Governor
Haskell at Meyer, between whom there
have been political differences.

AN INVESTIGATION
Sensational Charges Printed in Mus.
kogee Paper Relative to Manage
ment of Penitentiary.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Dec 17-Gov-
p~zsaor Haskell Friday afternoon sent a
message to the legislature requesting
investigation of the state penitentiary.
Sensational charges were printed in
a Muskogee paper relative to the man
agement of the Oklahoma state peni-
tertiary at McAlester by Warden Dick
on purported affidavit from DIR. D. D..
Love, prison physician who was sus-
pended by Warden Dick short time
ago.
The affidavit pri. ted declares that
murderers have disappeared in broad
daylight and that convicts gamble in
} the dining hall with the knowledge of
/ the officials.
DR.. Love was suspended October 26,
and he declares that he was promised
!. an investigation by Governor Haskell
Immediately after the election, but so
sAflr there has been no investigation.
Senator Horton introduced reso-
AQllOlA AOA un llf COLlSdllOn
of the affairs of the penitentiary in
1.-THE senate during the present session
which he sought to have incorporated
as an amendment in a general concur
rent resolution, providing for an in
.spection of the various state institu-
tions by committee from the legis-
Stature relative to appropriations. 1t
was voted down. He gave notice that
would later introduce the resolu-
Tlon, but was compelled to return to
his home Thursday to try an import
ant case without having had the op-
portunity of introducing the resolution.
He proposes to present it at the regu-
lar session in January
