cussing the political situation in
this state. In Oklahoma, as nation
ally. when the ticket is defeated,
the party Immediately begins prep
arations for the next battle, and you
can quote me as saying that the
campaign to win Oklahoma for the
national ticket in 1912 is now in
progress.
"The republicans of this state
made a magnificent fight for the
state ticket, this fall. 1t was the
best fight the party ever put up.
There was not county in the
state where the boys were not or
ganized and ready to do battle. The
fact that an unfair and dishonest
| election law governed in the pre-
cinct, county and state, ami further
fact that the grandfather clause
was brought into the game by the
democrats, defeated us this year We
had the state won otherwise, and the
democratic leaders now in control
realized that fact and were COMPEL
ed to resort to disfrapchisemen and
intimidation OF voters in order for
them to win. The democrats have bu'
little to crow about IN Oklahoma
and the republicans have everything
TO be thankful for. They male a
clean fight, n campaign OF facts and
figures, an organized fight, and the
party today is organized for just
such another day.
ITO the newspaper boys OF the
state great credit Is due for the fine
showing made. They have been 10y
al at every stage OF the game. Much
depended upon them TO get the facts
and figures, which the republican
state committee had gathered, be
fore the people and have never
known a more cerditable campaign
male by newspapers. They have the
ginger and Il is in them 10 stay.
Never before in this state were
the republicans OF the southern coun'

campaign. They are to be congratu
lated. 1t means much for them. 1t
means that they are 10 be and re-

again inertia is known among them
They buckled on the armor and
fought as vahantly as did the boys
in the more northern counties where
it was possible TO elect district and

FOOTBALL GAME ON HIGH SEAS
Sailors Entertain Captain Of Steamer
Delayed by Storm.

An international football game with
eleven wiry Cinnamon pitted against
eleven sturdy white sailors, one team
representing the East, the other the
West. was fought out on the decks
of the steamer Comeric one morning
while the ship was steaming along
in mid-Atlantic.
Like the HarvardYale football
game. which bad weather prevented
Capt. ]. c. Hall from seeing, this
unique contest ended in a tie. But
unlike the famous college game the
marine game finished in free-for-
all fight. settled only when the stew
ards art had reached the players
minds by way of their stomachs.
Whatever hard feelings the game
had caused had apparently passed
away. for as the Comeric warped IN
10 her berth, the white and Chinese
sailors We're chatting and laughing
together outside the forecastle.
Away back in September, captain
Hall and Captain Beers of the hor-
anna. which docked Saturday, met
in n club in Calcutta and there agreed
10 NEE. each other in Boston and at
tend the great Harvard-Yale game
CAPTAIN Beers arrived in time for the
game.
CAPTAIN Hall on the Comeric ran
into heavy weather outside OF GoraF
tar and was so delayed that ne
thought with envy of his fellow Cap
tain and the pleasure he was enjoy
ing.
But Captain Hall is philosopher
As the game would not come TO him.
and he certainly could not go TO the
game. me resolved TO have a little
game of his own. The men took en-
Enthusiastically to the suggestion ior
a game.
"It was the fiercest game of foot
ball ever saw in my life said Cap
tain Hall. last night, in telling OF tht
qame 81 had taken the precautior
to avoid any trouble by laying away
all marlin spikes and anything else
which might be used as weapon
or else there would have been mur
der.
TT was lucky did or | might
have had young mutiny to dea
with after the game was called.
The Cinnamon took to the game
much better than l thought they
would In a few plays they had The
white sailors going, and quick to see
their opportunity they played like
fiends.
"One Chinaman, Hop Long Fine
was a wonder. He was strong as
bull and every time he got hold o
the ball he went through the white
line like a streak of lightning.
In spite of all they could do th'
Cinnamon were fast pushing them
yard by yard, off the deck and woul'
certainly have won the game only 10

SPECIAL SESSION CALL IS RATIFIED
CAPITAL REMOVAL TO OKLAHOMA CITY

By an overwhelming majority in
the senate and a safe vote in the
house the proclamation of Governor
Charles y. Haskell, calling for a spe-
cial term of the Legislature in Ok
lahoma City, for the purpose of Sc
lecting a permanent location for the
capital of the state of Oklahoma, was
ratified Monday afternoon a short
time after the extraordinary term
met in the Levy building in this
city.
The vote of so to 26 in the house
and 33 to 8 in the senate in ratify-
ing the call for the special session
and approving the action OF, the gov
ernor in convoking the legislature to
hold its meetings in Oklahoma City,
cast a gloom over those who have
striven for months and years and are
sill fighting to permanently locate
the capital at Guthrie. The senu-
ment of the legislature, by far more
than two-thirds vote in ratifying the
call and endorsing Oklahoma City as
the place of meeting, indicates that
the first city in the great young staIe
i destined to be the permanent capl-
taI when the matter is finally and
unrevocablv Settled within the next
few days.
The subsequent action of the SEN
ate and the house in adopting reso-
lution to remove from Guthrie the
furniture, typewriters, and other hx-
tures for the use of the legislature,
ia another indication, every repre-
sentative who favors Oklahoma City
as the place to locate the capital
declared Monday night. The SER
eeant at arms of the senate and
house were instructed to proceed at
once to Guthrie and take possession
Of and Immediately ship to Oklahoma
City the furniture that belongs to the
legislature.
The bill which provides for the To-
cation of the permanent capital OF
the state of Oklahoma In or withln
five miles of Oklahoma City was plac'
ed on its first reading in the senate
and the house Monday afternoon
shortly before the legislature adjourn

BYERs AND THE FARMERS.

Attorney General Byers is out in a
statement in which he diagnoses the
conditions which cause hish prices.
and he has no trouble in finding a
remedy. OF course he does not locate
the trouble in Iowa, for he is after
votes in district which has varied
industries. He lays tn trouble to the
trusts, tariff and inequalities and high
cost OF transportation. Noting these
things, the Iowa City Republican says:
The great trouble with his view
point is that three of the articles o.
which the people are complaining y,
to price are not affected by the tarsI,
nor by the trusts. nor by the cost Of
transportation If the price of eggs,
butter and meat were reduced com
paint would cease. but the willy attor-
ney general intends an ask the farm
ers of the Ninth district to send him
to congress. and he will hardly urge
a reduction in the price of eggs, ut

EAT THE sPARRows.

It has been suggested that the
meat question could be solved and
the English sparrow trouble disposed
OF at the same time by eating tn.
sparrows which are so numerous in
every community. There is the au-
thority OF the biological survey at
Washington for saying that their
flesh is palatable and nutritious, and
in city restaurants they are often
served under the name of reedbirds. :
English sparrows are not. protected
by law in the United States and may
be killed by any means. at any time,
in any numbers.
The English sparrow was intro
duced into the United States about
sixty years ago. and is now distribut-
ed generally over the eastern sea
board and southern Canada and To-
cally westward TO the Pacific coast.
This rapid dissemination is result
of the birds hardness, extraordinary
fecundity, diversity of food. aggres-
sive disposition, and almost complete
Immunity from natural enemies
through It's sagacity and its prefer
.ence for thickly settled communities.
In the opinion of those who have
tried both, sparrows fried are better
than frogs legs. for which fancy
prices are paid. and they make good
pies and stews. That they are good
eating is not at all new AS long ago
as Horace Greeley's time it was sug-
gested in the New York Tribune to
settle the sparrow nuisance by eat
ing him." The advice is especially
timely now in view of the general
complaint about the high prices Of
meat and other supplies.
