MOTION TO DISMISS
MORE INDICTMENTS
Attorney Claims One Of Jury Commits
sloners Was Interested In Case
Then Pending.

A motion, which has for its pur-
pose the invalidation of every indict-
ment returned by the recent grand
jury was filed in the county court this
|afternoon by Preston Davis. attorney
for the defendants in the cases where
indictments were drawnffor the alleg-
ed violation of the prohibition laws.
The motion asks the court to set
aside the indictments on the ground
that the court is without jurisdiction.
inasmuch as the indictments, the mo-
|tion AYERS, are not properly returned
to the Oklahoma jury law
There are eight points of contention
in the motion filed today, all of which
except one are similar to those filed
yesterday. In addition to the grounds
for dismissal set up in yesterdays
motion. the motion today states that
one of the jury commissioners who
empaneled the grand jury, which re-
turned the indictments, was at the
time he acted as jury commissioner
and is now interested in civil and
criminal cases now pending in the
courts of this state, and interested in
a criminal cause, pending in the dis
trict court and set for trial and dis
posed of at thel March term of this
court, for which the jury was drawn.
The court received the motion and
will probably hear the arguments
early next week.

! the members of the committee having
expressed their pleasure at the oppor-
tunity Of hearing Mr.. Bryan's views.
Besides appropriating the $375,OO
for the eradication Of the hook-worm
and also establishing a Pan-American
college in Porto Rico, this govern
ment, in Mr.. Bryan's opinion, also
should establish similar college in
the canal zone, Mr.. Bryan predicted
that the population OF South America
win have increased in fifty years from
25,OO0,OOO to 5O,OOO,0OO. That conti-
|nent, he declared, viii do for Europe
what North America has done in the
last 100 years by affording home
and refuge for immigrants. f'
Representative Hitchcock of Nebras-
Ika accompanied Mr.. Bryan to the
White House. The democratic leader
was with the president almost an
hour. The conversation related almost
|entirely to the countries which Mr..
Bryan had just visited, especially
Cuba and Porto Rico. Colonel Bryan
lis heartily in favor of citizenship for
the Porto Ricans and he gave his
views on that subject with the presi-
dent. Mr.. Bryan left this city last

HEAR ARGUMENTS FOR
LOWERING ASSESSMENT

|
Guthrie. Okla. April 2O.--With Gov
ernor Haskell absent, the state board
of equalization met Tuesday to hear
further arguments of Warren X. Sny.
der, Of Oklahoma City. attorney for
the Byllesby interests. Plants are con.
trolled by the Byllesby's in Oklahoma
City. Muskogee. Enid and Ell Reno.
Snyder protested against high valua
tion of the Oklahoma city property on
the ground that an injustice would be
worked because Of low values fixed
on other properties by local assessors
| OF course the board disclaimed re
sponsibility for this condition.
Attorney Snyder compared the as
Isessment Of the Byllesby plant with
values placed on Office buildings in the
Icity and cited instances where build.
lings worth at least s225,OOO were as.
|sessed at $4,000 He noted one build.
ing yielding 20 per cent on a basis
of 100000, assessed at 100000 and
he stated that national banks had been
assessed at As per cent OF the book
value of their capital. in cases where
the stock was worth probably 150 per
cent
Last year the Byllesby company re-
ported its valuation in Oklahoma City
at $1,SOoOOo, which might be ac-
counted for by the fact that a good
showing was desired to bond the prop
Ierty. Their report this year. fixes the
valuation at 100000. The state
board took the report as a basis last
year. but 1t is believed, will raise the
assessment over the company's figures
this year. Snyder did not oppose a
81, 900, 900 value.

Expresses Confidence That Present Administra
ton is all Right as to Intent Refused to Dis
cuss the Proposed Retirement of Aldnch
Refers Briefly to.Leiter Issued on JEFF
ferson Day-Appearsd Before Com
mitfee on Insular Affairs

Washington, April 19.--"The pres
ent administration has my entire con
fidence so far as it's good intent is con.
cerned," said William ]. Bryan, to the
house committee on insular affairs,
yesterday. Mr.. Bryan was appearing
voluntarily before the committee to
urge an appropriation Of $4,000 for
the determination Of the hookworm
lin Porto Rico, and to advocate the
establishment Of Pan-American col
llege on the island.
Il don't care to discuss at length
Senator Aldrich's proposed retire,
ment." said Mr.. Bryan, in reply to one
question. but think many people will
feel about it as man once expressed
himself in regard to the death OF. a
man with whom he radically differed,
| He said: While one ought not to re-
joice in another's death. yet this was
one of those dispensations of Provi-
ldence to which one could easily recon
Icile himself. ("
The colonel said that he was pleas
led at the results Of the recent revolu-
tion in the house of representatives.
There is no reason said Mr.. Bryan,
why the speaker should be given the
Ipower which he now wields when he
lis able to largely control legislation by
putting committee members under OBJ
Legations to him"
Mr.. Bryan would have all the com.
Imittees. selected by party caucuses. as
1.-THE new rules committee is selected.
He opined that the new rules commit
ltee was selected with view of loyalty
| to the speaker, rather than because of
an accurate rejection of the sentiment
of the republican party.
The Nebraskan referred to his re
cent letter to the Jefferson day dinner
committee OF this city. in which he
llugged out the old 16-to-1 ghost by re-
lferring to his quantitatiye theory OF
money.
There was nothing new or startling
in the letter." said Mr.. Bryan, "and it
| is hardly necessary for those who
favored the restoration of silver to sup
press their qualification that time has
completely vindicated the quantitative
theory OF money, which was the basis
I for contention The republicans have
enjoyed the prestige and emoluments
of victory, and they should not be
grudge us the pleasure we find in the
fact that their president is now com
Ipelled to admit that the scarcity OF
money made low prices. He now con
tends that increased priceiI were main.
" due to an increase in the currency
and he necessarily admits that low
prices were mainly due to lack OF
money"
The house committee on insular af-
fairs, before which Mr.. Bryan appear
ed in the interests of Porto Rico seem
ed considerably impressed by his ar.
guments, and Representative Ohm
lsted of Pennsylvania, its chairman,
and a number Of other members, made
comments indicating that they were
ready and willing to stand for the
proposition advocated by Mr.. Bryan.
| The appearance Of Mr.. Bryan be-
fore the committee was arranged by
Champ Clark, the minority leader. all

KENNEDY SHOWS
UP THE KNOCKER
FARGO CONTRACTOR CALLS At
TENTIoN TO FALSE STATE
MENTs MADE BY THE MORNING
oRGAN-ThuN SEWER Is Dis.
cussED AND FACTS SHOWN.

To The Forum: I see that the
morning Knocker'' Is out again with
us mslnuations as to the cost of con-
Iracting work done In this city. maxi
ing a statement that it cost rs per
cent more for work done here than in
other cities in the northwest. brand
the charge as false, and challenge
Ehem to furnish proof
will prove that the work dona
mere mas cost no more, and in many
cases less than work of like nature in
une surrounding cities; taking into con-
sluefatlon the cost of material and
freight, and the year in which the work
mas been done.
TO show the absurdity and lying
statements the "Knocker'' has been
making, IL has made the statement and
LSLlerated same that the trunk sewer,
tnat ! am now building, is being con-
structed with view OF draining the
pig slough. This sewer varies in size
from six feet at the outlet to twenty
incnes at Sixteenth street. and any one
knows that a twenty inch opening
would carry off very little of the water
that courses through the big slough.
ana IN order to get any of the water
oI the Dig slough through the trunk
- sewer, II would be necessary to force
~ through with a pump, as the big
slough is nine feet lower than the end
of the trunk sewer
The 'Knocker" also makes a state
ment that the time for completion of
the trunk sewer was Feb. ~. and
should have been commenced Nov. -.
work would have been commenced on
that date, but the machinery that was
necessary for this work, which was
shipped and loaded as soon as the con-
tract was awarded, did not arrive I'M
I'll Jan. 10, and allowing the time which
was lost on account of the switchmen's
strike, and add it to the time of COM
pIetion, the work will be done nearly
on the time specified And If a stranger
had this work, he would receive the
same treatment which / expect to re-
ceive, as the records viii show that
strangers who have come here and dic
work in the early days were always
well treated.
1t seems that the Cassie Chadwick
that we have here, thinks he must be-
little my work at home and abroad.
and as he cannot say anything derog-
atory Of my work in truth, he resorts
TO lies and insinuations. And If it
were not for the many new people who
are in our city, that know little of him
or the paper which he supports /
would not deign a reply.

SAD ABANDONMENT
CASE At BISMARCK

Bismarck TribuneI Chief of Police
Mcdonald received notice that there
was a deplorable condition existing at
the home Of Russ Bolton on the bot
toms Friday, and upon going to the
place found most disgusting state of
affairs.
Mrs. Bolton was confined to the
house and about to give birth to a
child and three little children were
about the place doing what they
could to keep alive. 1t appears that
during the recent food the lower
floor of the house was under water
about five feet, and the family had
moved back on Thursday but the
house had not been cleaned as Mrs.
Bolton was unable to do any work
and Bolton could not, or would not
furnish the money to hire the work
done.
The walls were pIastered with mud
to height of several feet and things
in the little house were just as they
had been left after the water had re-
ceded from the house. 1t was a place
that would be death warrant for
a well person, and to a woman in the
condition of Mrs. Bolton was such
that she would surely have contract
ed disease that would have resulted
in fatal illness in a few days
The chief secured rooms for the
woman in the Dakota block and she
is, there at the present time Her
condition is serious.
A search was made for Bolton and
he was found in beastly state of in
toxication, having been drinking hard
for the past several days. 1t is stat.
ed that a charge of criminal neglf-
gence will be brought against him in
police court.
