The candidates opposing Oklahoma

are united on two proposition TO de-
feat the ADMINISTRATION bill for I'M
mediate location by the legislature
II possible, and to provide ror a sub
mission OF capital location proposi-
tlous to a vote Of the people. They
desire another popular vote for the
reason that some Of the friends OF
the bill are claiming that It Is so
drawn as to suspend the powers OF
the referendum.
The Oklahoma city state capital
bill came out full fledged after it h.lt
undergone another revision at the
hands OF its trainers. Under the bill
as finally drawn provision is made
for the immediate removal Of the csDi.
ital from Guthrie to Oklahoma city,
and capital commission of three
members is provided which Is author
lzed to let contracts for the erection
Of the capitol buildings and to super
intend construction While the com
mission is authorized to accept gifts
OF money etc, lor a capitol fund yet
1t is not authorized to purchase land
for the site or to make deeds convey
ing title CT the state to lots in the
proposed capital site. The owners OF
land are TO make the deeds to each
lot sold conveying their own individ-
ual title. and are required TO deposit
the proceeds from such sales as fast
as received with the state treasurer
The bill appropriates from this fund
$l700,0o0 to be available only as Il
is turned In from the sale of lots, the
excess Of $1.500,0G0 to be used for
the expenses Of the commission and
for the removal of the state depart
ments from Guthrie to Oklahoma

Owners of the site are not requir
ed to give bond to insure the state
that they place to the credit of the
state the $l.700,O00. II these people
should fail in their undertakings there
would be no fund with which 10 com
plete the erection OF the capitol build

Land Price is Fixed.
The capitol commission fixes the
prices at which the lots for to heue-
fit OF state shall be sold and superin-
teads the sale but has no power to
convey the title which remains al
ways In the name Of the persoas who
furnish the site. The commission,
however, is authorized to receive on
behalf of the state. eighty acres or
la1d for capital site The bill does
not undertake to name a particular
site for the capital at Oklahoma City
but It is assumed hat the governor
IN view of his former action would
appoint commission favorable to
the Putram site. The state capital
commission is to be composed OF
three members and is TO hold office
until March /, 1912.

COLUMBIA TRUST GO. e
FAILURE INVOLVED
All Justices, Except Kane
Concur In Opinion BY
Williams

The supreme court this morning,
in decision by Judge Williams IN
the case Of the 'rhe State eX rel Q. A.
Taylor, State Examiner v. II. B. Cock
re,l State Banilng ConmissiE1e
decided that the state examiner had
a right to examine all the papers
In the state banking commissioner
Office in regard TO banks that had
failed. The case arose from the re-
fusal Of A. M. Young. the former bank
ing commissioner, to let Taylor ex-
anime the papers in regard TO the
Columbia Bank & Trust company of
Oklahoma City, whereupon Taylor
brought action by mandamous TO com
pei Young to allow him to go through
all the papers. Before the case was
tried Young resigned, Cockrell sue
ceeding him, and the title OF tne pro-
ceeding was changed 50 as TO make
1t against the latter.
Opinion by Williams.
Judge Williams says:
IN is contepded 'tlfat the state
examiner and Inspector In making
this examination - confined TO the
books OF the banking department up
on which the bank commissioner or
other Officers Of said department have
made entries OF record relative TO
such fund or assets received. disburs-
ed or disposed of. If this be true, an
examination OF such department IN
respect to the funds and assets OF a
failed bank that have been or are
being administered by said depart
ment should result in no practical
benefit. The result would be n value
less farce, for the state examiner and
inspector, being confined to such re-
cord as contained only the entries
made by the banking commissioner
or the banking department, would
have no way to determine If they
spoke the truth. Whilst all officers
are presumed to be without official
wrong, yet IL was the evident inten-
tion Of the trainers OF the constitu-
tion to have suck system Of checks
and balances as would bring about am
inquisitorial examination for the pro-
lection u the people SO that therp
could be no hidden wrong"
Justice Kane dissenjed from the
opinion. Chief Justice Dunn and Jus
tees Turner and Hayes coneurring.
