PEOPLE OF BUCKEYE
 ID HAVE RELIEF
The Roads There to Be Put into Good
 Shape Immediately.

The letter of William Walton of the Buckeye country, printed by The Re publican yesterday, complaining of the state of the roads in that part of the country, left by railroad construction, was read with interest by the board of supervisors yesterday.
 Chairman Hoghe, though, made the chopping block by the writer, admitted that the grievance of Mir. Walton was well founded. He said he could not complain of the strictures of the writ CT, for he said that he had made his own campaign for office on the plat form of good roads and good govern ment and he was therefore naturally in sympathy with any complaint about bad roads.
 The board ordered Road Super intendent Acuff to proceed to the point of complaint forthwith and afford the people of that part of the country all possible relief
 The supervisors said that the rail road company had been doing its best to cause the people of the Buckeye country the least possible inconven- fence in the construction of the rail- road and as fast as it could after con- struction had put the road through which it had passed in good shape The county had already made d good road one mile south of the line of construc- tion and will now proceed to fix the thoroughfares so that the people in no part of the country will have anything to complain of.

understood that the greasy, green look ing fluid had come from the old Gard iner well long unused but which had been broken into. There was a vision of long imprisoned typhoid germs which had been given their freedom.
 But nothing of the sort had hap pened. Chief Engineer Thompson told last night just what had occurred. There had been some excavation for T new engine in the vicinity of the old Gardiner well and it was broken into as has been described This we'll had long ago been cemented and had been used as dump to take up the drippings of the engines which carry more or less machine oil. The we'll from which water is supplied to the city is a short distance away. This well is 15O feet deep and is tightly closed for loo feet deep from the top, so tIbt no surface water nor any wa ter of the upper strata can get into it. But below 100 feet the casing is per forated for the admission of water of the lower strata.

This casing is sixteen inches in diame- ter. The pipe of the pump in this well is fifteen inches so that it fits reason ably close. The top Of this pipe is covered with flange which will ex- clude surface water.
 But when the old Gardiner well was broken into, the water probably rose In the night and the "skimmings" of oil percolated through the sand and gravel lying between the two wells and ran down the outer pipe or the casing of the well and so was pumped out with the first flow.
 There was nothing poisonous, how ever unpalatable and unsightly the fluid might have been. As soon as Chief Engineer Thompson dis covered what had happened he caused the earth to be dug away around the top of the casing filled it in with boulders and made a cement covering so that an accident of that kind in the future will be impos- Sible

BREAD STICKS

When you are making raised bread it is a good plan to take out a little dough and make some bread sticks. Take out the dough when it is ready to shape into loaves and make it into a roll about three-eights of an inch thick: then cut it in strips about six inches long, put the strips into a pan some distance apart, brush the top with beaten egg and sprinkle poppy seed over it. When it is raised suf- ficiently, bake it.

PLANS DRAWN FOR
 TWO NEW BUILDINGS Moore e Mcclellan to Build Chapel and p. 4. Tharaldson to Re-
 model the Hub.

Two important steps in the building up and improvement of Phoenix will be the erection of a morturary chapel by Moore X Mcclellan next to the Presbyterian church on Adams street, and the entire remodeling of the Hub by r. A. Tharaldson.
 The chapel will cost close to $10.000 and the improvements made on the Hub store will reach possibly S12,000 or $15,000.
 The chapel, which has been de- signed by l.. c. Knipe, is of Spanish architecture, a two-story building with basement. There will be apartments on the second floor In front there will be two towers of mission design. It is probable that the building will

GOVERORS ULTIMATUM
TO ALL STATE OFFICERS

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 17-It develop
ed Monday night that at the meeting
of the state board of equalization at
Oklahoma City Saturday night, Gov.
ernor Haskell practically delivered an
Iultimatum to the state officers, Civ.
ing them the choice of obeying his
calls to come down D Oklahoma City,
or having their officers declared va
cant and successors appointed by him.
The governors ultimatum was not
in the form Of a formal proclamation,
but was an emphatic statement made
to the state officers there assembled

State Auditor NJ E. Trapp, State
Treasurer ] A. Menefee, Secretary Of
State Thomas P. Smith and others
State Examiner and Inspector c.
A. Taylor, a member OF the board,
after repeated telephones from the
governor, had wired the chief execu-
tive from Guthrie that in his opinion
the Huston injnnctions forbade him
attending a meeting Of the board in
Oklahoma City. This brought forth
the governors statement, which in
part was as follows
"Im through wasting the money Of
this state humoring a district Judge,
If one district judge could suspend the
business of the state nine weeks, the
other district judges could take their
turn, and we would never be in oper-
ation. My proclamation locating the
state capital at Oklahoma City in ac-
cordance with the initiated BILL was
issued nine weeks ago do not see
any right of the state officers but to
obey the governors proclamation.
From this on this government win be
run at Oklahoma City and all steps
necessary to keep It in motion will be
taken When the state officers fail to
maintain their offices at the state capi-
tai, they have simply created a va
cancy by their own act. II Judge Hus-

CAPITAL CASE TO
Be AIRED IN FULL
Oklahoma Governor chafes at Delay,
But other State Officials Won't

Guthrie, Okla, Aug livery phase
Of the capital location case is embrac
ed In the perfected appeal taken tc
the supreme court by the attorneys
for Oklahoma City from the action OF
Judge Huston in granting temporary
injunctions in the district court to re-
strain the removal of the state capital
from Guthrie to Oklahoma City. The
petition filed yesterday is supplement-
al to the one filed yesterday by T. r
Smith, secretary of state, and is made
on behalf of all the other state officers
who are enjoined from removal of their
Offices and records. The perfected ap.
peal raises all the merits Of the case,
including the question of the validity
of the initiated bill, the binding force
of the enabling act and the legality OF
the 100000 appropriation.
B. r. Burwell and G. B Stuart, at.
torneys for Oklahoma City, yesterday
tried to get the supreme court to set
date for hearing the case, but no ac-
ton was taken because of the fact
that only two Of the justices are in
the city
Il Is virtually certain, however, that
the case will not be taken up until
the September term. which starts Sep.
