ert H. Richards. former attorney gen.
eral and Mr.. Harman, had consulted
together on the situation and had
reached the same conclusion as to
remedying the situation. Mr.. Rich

Hartman as TO the method OF trying to
make the present unsatisfactory con-
ditIon OF city government satisfac-
tory.
Many Marriages Affected.
II was said today that Mayor spru-
ance has married thirty couples since
June Z. the legality Of which mar
riages is most doubtful The Mayor
declines to give the names Of couples

these marriages were secret and have
never been announced 10 will require
an act of Legislature or the remar-

One question now Is whether the

heavier this year.

SOUGHT

Oklahoma City, Sept. 13.-One more
case in the epidemic Of county boun-
dary changings that has infested the
state in recent months was taken Mon
day when a delegation from lhe two
and one-half southeast townships OF
Caddo county secured appointment
with Governor Haskell for Wednesday
as a time TO present their argument
why their two and one-haIf townships
should be detached from Caddo county
and annexed to Grady. What the ar
guments in this NATTER VIII BE-, is not
intimated. 1t is understood. however,
that closer proximity to county
seat will be the plea. Chickasha Is
county seat Of Grady county and Ana
darIzo is the seat OF Caddo county. The
land is part of that involved in the
Cook county matter now pending be-
fore the supreme court.
