withdraw from the race and leave a
clear field to +. McNeal
In regard to keeping the platform
pledges, Mr.. Cruce pointed with pride
to the fact that the democrats had
faithfully given the people every law
promised in their platform of three
years ago. He told them of the crea-
ton of the corporation commission,
clothed with more power than any
similar board in any state in the I'm
ion. He pointed out the reductions
made in freight rates by this commits
sion and the relief given the people
from indignities heaped upon them by
the public service corporations and
cited many instances where Mr.. Nc
Neal, by signing the appeal bonds of
the railroads had thwarted the will of
the people and by such action showed
that he would rather favor the cor
porate wealth than the people of his
state.
In unqualified terms Mr.. Cruce de-
clared the bank guaranty law passed
by the first legislature to be the best
banking law ever written upon the
books of any state or nation He said
that with his years of experience as a
national banker that he believed the
law superior to any other banking law
enacted both from the standpoint of
the banker and depositor, for he said
it was the only law of the kind ever
enacted and operated under the terms
of which no depositor had ever lost a
dollar.
On the whole Mr. Cruces speech was
direct convincing statement of facts
and it was evident that there was not
a man within the sound of his voice
but was convinced of the folly of en-
trusting the destinies of this state to
the republicans. After the speaker
closed he shook hands with several
hundred of the people who had as
sembled from all parts of the county.
Many were the hearty endorsements
heard today of this splendid appeal to
the intelligence of the voters and fav-
orable to Cruce were comparisons
made with the mudslinging attack of
McNeal upon the laws enacted by the
democrats for the protection of the
peoples rights.
Mr.. Cruce left this morning in an
automobile for Centralia, and will
speak at that place, Bluejacket and
Welch today.

DISTRICT COURT
TERM GUT SHORT
Judge Brown Called to Kansas City on
Account of Serious illness of
His Wife.

The first week of the October term
of the district court was cut short late
yesterday by a telegram to Judge
Brown, from the hospital in Kansas
City, where Mrs. Brown is very low as
q result of an operation. Just before
the recess was taken last night Judge
Brown announced that he would have
to. absent himself from the court for
a few days and adjourned the court
until next Monday morning.
The grand jury also was adjourned
this morning to meet again next Mon
day. The grand jury was Just EN-
paneled yesterday and did not have
much time for work before the recess
was taken
The afternoon session of the court
was taken up with the disposition of
a number of motions and demurrers.
The hearing of these was finished how
ever and all is in readiness for the jury
trials which will start upon the re-
sumption of the term next Monday.

STATE CONTROL OF
ROADS IS URGED
For Three Hundred Years System of
Local Construction Of Roads Has
Failed, Says Page.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct g.
while construction is the first requis-
ite to road improvement, maintenance
of the roads is of equal Importance"
Logan Waller Page, director of the
United States office of public roads,
said in an address to the National
Good Roads convention in session here.
ITO have both good construction and
good maintenance we must have a
centralized administrative system. The
one point of clearly demonstrated SUI
periority which the European road sys-
tenn possesses over our own is in its
exceptionally effective administration
and maintenance
"All the roads of the state should
be under the control of the state" Mr..
Page continued. 1T is absolutely es-
sential to good roads that the road ad-
ministration should be taken out of
politics and this can be accomplished
only through plan of appointing local
highway engineers by state highway
commission. For three hundred
years the system of local road con-
struction had resulted only in bad
roads except in spots under peculiar
conditions. With the advent of state
construction and state aid in local
construction and with state control
over the whole inter-rated system,
some of the states are getting a really
fine road system"
Mr.. Page urged that in all legisla-
tion for good roads separate funds be
provided for construction and main
tenance. He advocated the patrol sys-
tenn of keeping the roads in repair,
under which, as in France, one man is
given a short stretch of the road to
keep under his constant supervision.
This patrol system Is now in opera
tion in New York, where the state has
lrecently voted so million dollars in
bonds for road work. The New York
system provides for trunk lines to be
built and maintained entirely at the.
cost of the state, for country roads to
be built jointly by the state, county
and towns and for town or township
roads to which the state contributes
lonly for maintenance.

SYNOD IS
IN SESSION At TULSA

Tulsa, Okla, Oct. 5-Commencing
yesterday at 2:30 the Presbyterians
are holding their annual conference on
Indian work in the city of Tulsa at
the NJ E. church south. Delegates
from all portions of the southwest are
arriving in the city to attend the four
days program that will be held here
this week.
The Prebyterians are making pre-
parations for busy week. Today the
Brotherhood of Laymen will hold their
annual session in connection with the
Synod commencing at one o'clock.
The Synod proper will commence at
1880 o'clock this evening when Rev.
James Kidd Thompson of Muskogee
will address the delegation.
On Thursday morning the session
will be held in the auditorium of the
Henry Kendall college building when
the matter pertaining to the school
and the appointment of committees
will occupy the attention of the dele
cation. All other meetings will be
neld in the NJ. E. church, owing to the
fact that the new Presbyterian church
is not completed.
The purpose Of holding the Synod
and other meetings here at this time
is to draw the parents and those in
terested in the success of the Henry
Kendall college to Tulsa to give them
the chance to investigate the condi-
tions Of the school.
One Of the important features of the
meeting will be the Inauguration Of
DR.. S. r. Gordon D. .. L. L. D as
president of the Kendall college.

CLEAN SEED CAMPAIGN
PROVES GREAT SUCCESS

Guthrie, Okla, Oct. 6.-The farm
demonstration department of the state
board of agriculture yesterday dispos-
ed of the last of the carload of pure
seed wheat obtained from Medicine
Lodge, for distribution among Okla
homa farmers. No more seed wheat
will be purchased by the department
this year as the planting season is
rapidly coming to close.
The department received several
orders for seed from sections of the
state that have heretofore raised little
or no wheat, indicating that the cam
paign for pure seed wheat carried on
by the railroads and the state has
aroused widespread interest in wheat
growing, and will doubtless result in
considerable increase in the acreage
of that crop in Oklahoma next year
and in succeeding years.

GUARANTY LAW WILL
AGAIN Be OPERATIVE

Topeka, Kans., Oct. 4. - Attorney
General Jackson received notice from
the clerk of the United States circuit
court of appeals yesterday that the
motion filed by the banks for a rehear-
ing in the Kansas bank guaranty case
had been denied and that the man.
date would be sent down in a few
days.
This means that the bank guaranty
law will go back into operation short
ly. AS soon as the mandate is re-
ceiyed Bank Commissioner Dolley will
begin receiving new banks into the
fund if any more desire to enter. He
also will levy the annual assessment,
as the law provides, but when it fell
due on account of the laws being held
up by the courts.
The United States supreme court
has not yet ruled on the application
of the banks for a writ of certiorari,
but the attorney general says if the
writ is granted, which he doubts, it
will not tie up the law The action
of the court of appeals dissolves the
injunction and the law now will be in
operation, even if the supreme court
takes jurisdiction until final decis-
ion is rendered

MUCH ENTHUSIASM IN
COMING SALE Of LANDS

Muskogee, Okla, Oct. 5.-Unusual
enthusiasm among bidders from every
part of the United States is being dis
played in the approaching sale of 75,-
600 acres of restricted Indian lands
in eastern Oklahoma which will con-
tinue from October 10 to IA.
The sale will be conducted under
the sealed bid system and officials at
the union agency in this city think
the forthcoming sale will break all
records heretofore made in the dis
posal of Indian lands.
The lands to be sold extend from
the Kansas to the Texas lines and bids
are being received from every nook
and corner of the country, many of
the prospective buyers never having
inspected the land which is listed for
sale.

LEE O'NEIL BROWN TO
Be PLACED ON STAND

Chicago, H., Oct. 6. - Lee O'Neil
Browne, democratic leader of the Hi
nois house of representatives, under in
dictment in connection with the cleo
tion of William Lorimer to the United
States senate, will be called to testify
before the Lorimer congressional COM
mittee.
The same ruling made by the COM
mittee today in regard to State Sena-
tor John Broderick, under indictment
on a charge of having bribed d. w.
Holtslaw to vote for Lorimer applies
also to Representative Robert e. Will
son, against whom bribery charges
are also pending.
Neither Browne or Broderick on
the stand today were questioned be-
yond formal requests for their names.
On the plea of Attorney Thomas Daw-
son, counsel for each, that he wished
to confer with associate counsel be-
fore advising his clients what course
to pursue, the committee reluctantly
granted counsel until tomorrow to
decide their course and then the wit
ness must answer or plead constitu.
tional privilege and decline to answer
on the ground that their words might
be self-incriminative

SUPREME COURT ENJOIAS
SWANSON COUNTY OFFICERS

Guthrie, Okla, Oct. 6.-The Okla
homa supreme court has issued a tenn
porary restraining order enjoining the
officers of Swanson county from de-
manding or receiving records, books,
taxes or property from Kiowa county
pending final disposition Of the cases
brought to dissolve Swanson county.
District Judge Tolbert of Kiowa coun-
ty refused to issue such an order on
the ground that he was without juris-
diction and County Attorney Stand
ever of Kiowa county appealed to the
supreme court.
This effectually ties up the business
of the new county so far as collecting
taxes and settling financial affairs is
concerned, until the legal proceedings
to dissolve the county are disposed of.

WHY POSTAL BANK
MET OPPOSITION
No Fear of Competition But Because
System is Wrong Fundamentally,
II-Advised And Un-American.

Les Angeles, Cal, Oct 6.-Address-
ing the meeting of the American Bank
ers' association, OF which he is presi-
dent, William R. Greer, secretary of
the Cleveland Savings and Loan COM
pany, of Cleveland, took occasion to
say that, though the association mad
opposed the Postal Savings bank as i'll
advised and un-American while it was
being considered, the bankers should
now give it their support. Mr.. Greer
said:
"Our position on the subject of the
Postal Savings bank has been misun-
derstood by both press and people to
a considerable degree. The measure
was opposed, not because we feared
competition to our business on the
part of the government, but for the
reason that we considered it wrong
fundamentally, ill-advised, unneces-
sarv and un-American.
The discussion of the subject has,
however, been Of great good, affording
a better idea of the number, work and
success of the various institutions for
savings all over our country. One of
the most important contributions to
savings bank literature of this section
of the savings deposits of the various
states, and the character of the finan-
cial institution holding them. This
was so vastly different in the number
of banks given, and the total amount
of deposits, that it came in the nature
of surprise and the article was cop
led and reproduced in all parts of the
country.
''The postal savings bill has become
law, and as loyal patriotic citizens
it is our duty to see that the utmost
amount of good shall be secured by
the act, and that as little harm as pos
sible may result. That the banking
fraternity is not only willing but anx-
ious to operate with the government,
in this work, is shown by the report
recently made that three times as
many banks made that threHM H NH
many banks had asked to be made de-
positories for postal savings funds as
there were applications from post
offices to be designated as postal
banks. From the activities Of our pos
tai savings bank committee a large
amount of knowledge has been given
us regarding our own business. The
committee has done loyal work, of
which we are proud, and it is deserving
of great praise for its efforts.
Following the financial disturb
ances of 1908 there has not occurred
that adjustment of prices, to lower
scale, that usually follows panic. On
the contrary the cost of living has
steadily increased. There needs must
be an adjustment between prices and
wages, or there is a serious problem
ahead of our savings repositories. Fig
ures recently issued would indicate
that savings deposits have increased
largely during the past year, but a
careful analysis will in many cases
show that it is. the amount of interest
credited that increases the figures and
not increased deposits. Thus, while a
greater total in savings deposits is
shown in some states, in reality the
Withdrawals have been greater than
the deposits for the same period. The
present situation demands greater
care and conservatism than usual upon
our part"
