Will Be Followed.

Guthrie. Okla. Aug 1S.-'Relatiye
10 a story that has been given gen
eral publication in some afternoon
papers, Chairman Royal J. Allen OF
the state board of affairs today is
sued the following formal statement:
The report now going the rounds
Of the press that there is friction
between Governor Haskell and the
state board of public affairs over
the capital removal question is un-
true, and does all parties concerned
an injustice. There is no friction
between the governor and this boar',
and has been none. Governor Has
kell has not ordered this board to
Oklahoma City. and while he be
ieves under the law that oklahoma
City Is the capital and all should
be there. yet we have all been wait
ing patiently for an early judicial
determination of this matter
The public should remember that
the members Of this board are ap-
pointed by the governor, and it,
therefore. follows than any order
the governor might make concerning
this board he may expect TO have
followed"
