GOLD HEADS

Tie Yellow Metal Flows

Washington July l1.-Relief is ex-
pressed by treasury officials that the
import movement Of gold from Eu-
rope win approximate $4O,000,oO0 by
Christmas.
During the last fiscal year the Unit
ed States was drained for coin and
bullion to the extent Of more than
$5O,OOO,OOO. It was not thought by the
government experts that the home
ward flow would begin SO early, but
thatit would follow ordinary trade con
ditions later in the season.
1t has been the observation of the
treasury experst that foreign conti-
nenetal banks gradually have been
aiming to strengthen their gold re-
serves, which probably accounts for
the irenlries fnr the precious metal at
London.

Swamp" Campbell, Present Clerk of
the Supreme Court, Asks Re-
nomination Upon Record.

w. II. I. Campbell, familiarly known
as Swamp" is candidate for the
democratic nomination for reelection
70 the dfEice Of clerk Of the supreme
court at the primary election to be
held August End.
air Campbell was elected to the posi-
tion he now occupies at the statehood
election in November 1907.
The duties Of the clerk Of the SUI
prene court are chiefly in conjunction
with those Of the supreme court and
the criminal court OF appeals, and bring
him In daily contact with the courts
and attorneys throughout the state. No
stronger endorsement could candi-
date for this position possibly secure
than the endorsement Of the bench and
bar--they who transact the official
business with him. This endorsement
Mt. Campbell has, by them he is recog-
nized as both efficient and courteous.
Under his management the clerks Of
fice IL conducted in most up-to-date
and systematic manner; only the most
competent assistants being employed.
In making his campaign for re-elec4
tion Mr.. Campbell is doing so upon
the record he has made. and has no
apology 70 make for any Of his or
fetal acts His Office and accounts
are open for inspection at all times,
ard he invites the voters to inquire
into the facts before they cast their
ballots on August End.
An enthusiastic opponent. in his zeal
BUSINESS 10 succeed. is resOrting 10 mis-
representations, and has published
statements which are very untrue and
unjust Indirectly he casts an odiuIn
OF dlscredit upon every member of the
state legislature and the members OF
the supreme court as well as upon the
people who has elected these men to
the responsible positions they now
hold.
The fees charged by the clerk OF the
supreme court are regulated by the .su-
preme court Of the state. and is it
unreasonable 10 believe that any citizen
Of Oklahoma is willing to charge the
supreme court with permitting the
clerk Of its court to charge unreason-
able or extortionate fees, as indicated
by this opponent. DO you? Certainly
not The state examiner and Inspector,
in his report Of the condition Of the
Office Of the clerk OF the court, gives
some facts and figures which are sig
nificant. and which show that. after
paying all necessary Office, clerical and
other incidental expenses the clerk re-
ceives as his yearly salary only about
81 10000. which is several times less
than the amount indicated by this com
petitor, The statements set out will
but prove a boomerang, because the
voters are going to Investigate for
themselves whether these things be
true or not The day when candidates
can misoonstrue the facts and win is
past. The people prefer to choose
their candidates upon the merits OF the
men who aspire to Office. and when an.
official has made goodH they are going
to return him to Office. Mr.. Campbell
has done his duty as required by law
and viii be rewarded by another nomi-

PENSACOLAS
Win THE FIRST
FROM SAMSON
VISITORS SECURED ONLY ONE
HIT OFF ARMSTRONG AND
NEVER BROKE INTO THE RUN
COLUMN-GOOD GAME Elk
PECTED TODAY.

The locals nicked their gun-stock
again yesterday. The Samson team
was the victim. With only one hit
off Armstrong; sizzling delivery, the
visitors never had chance to ring
up a tally.
The Samson cohorts slammed Arm
strong rather hard in spots, but the
locals were right there with circus
stunts to cut off any embryonic raj
lies.
In the second Touart soaked a
beauty to right and swiped second.
Hertenbach poked slow one to
short and Touart was safe at third,
when Valentine bobbed the toss.
Armstrong shot one to right of pitch
er and Touart scored while Brunson
was tearing to first. Hertenbach was
out for cutting third on this play.
In the fourth Van Matre, Touart,
Hertenbach and Armstrong walked
up and slammed successive bingles
to all parts of the lot, three runs re-
sulting.
Touart walked and stole in the
sixth, took third on Hertenbach's in
field out and romped home on Ber-
gins safe slam to right.
Lurton's hand was hurt by foul
ZIP III thC SSuhiC anu III IhO
sixth the team was switched about to
relieve the hurt digit, Bergin going
to second and Sanchez to third, Lur-
ton taking up Bergin's mantle IN
right and Touart coming in behind
the plate. Touart and Bergin put up
a nice game in the strange posi-
tions.
The Samson team played strong
and consistent game, only Arm
strong's big league work and the fast
field work of the locals kept them
out of the run and base hit columns.
The visitors we're unfortunate in be-
ing without the services of their regu-
lar catcher, short-stop and one pitch
er, who missed connection with the
railroad schedule en- route.
The same teams play today. Jack
Baisden will be in the box for Sam
son tomorrow. Baisden will be re-
membered as the pitcher who pitch
ed the opening game for the Nash
vile Americans last year, holding the
locals in the hollow Of his massive
paw to the doleful tune of two pale
hits, or near-hits, and no runs what
ever. In face of the above it will be
seen that the locals will have their
work cut out for them and some
game may be expected.

RECALLS TAKE
ANOTHER GAME

The RECALLS won their third victory
yesterday in the Twilight League, de-
feating the newly organized OverallS
8 to l before the largest crowd Of the
season. The game was anything but
classy from baseball point of view,
especially on the part Of the Overails
but the antics of some of the players
in their efforts to do the Ty Cobb and
Hans Wagner stunts proved highly
interesting to the crowd, and many
were the peals Of laughter brought
forth as some unfortunate landed up
side-down" after Teddy Roosevelt
strenuous effort" The Recalls were
guilty of but few plumbers and with
"Dud' Barrow pitching steady ball all
the way, they put up their usual good
game. The Overalls are newly organ
lied and showed plainly the lack OF
practice, but they can do better and
will with more practice.
The game this afternoon will be in
the nature o ia try-out for the newly
organized Independents against the
Pastimes. The latter have been play
ing in great form and a new team will
have to travel some to head them off,
but this is what the Independents
claim they are capable of doing. 1t is
certain that they have been practicing
faithfully and have gotten together a
team of ''all stars" with which to go
after the pennant. Hodgeboom will
probably do the box work, while San
Sara win work for the Pastimes.
The management announces that
the formal opening of the season will
be held June 1, next Wednesday, and
arrangements are being perfected to
make It hummer. Nothing has been
made public yet but 4 is rumored that
an automobile parade, brass band,
and a pennant raising will figure in
the program, ending with a game be
tween the present leaders in the
league. Interest seems to be growing
daily and encouragement is coming in
from many sources, bespeaking the
splendid work the playground commit
tee is doing.
A double header will be the feature
Friday afternoon, the first game be-
tween the Alaga "Syps" and the Ath.
letics to be called at 4:30, and the
second between the Real Estates and
the Beavers at $50.
The lineup of the Independents
could not be secured, but the Pastimes
will use the following: Sara, pitcher;
Roche, catcher; o. Brawner, firSt
base; Nell, second base; Angelo, third
base: Graham, short stop; Brent, left
field; Chivers, center field; Griffin,
