William Lyon, the seventh Earl OF
Beauchamp became Great Britain's young
est colonial governor when in 1899, at the
age of twenty-seven, he was made governor
and commander in chief of the colony of
New South Wales. He remained at that
post only two years however, as he proved
to be lacking in the experience required for
so important a place. His chief mistake
was a reference TO the ancestors Of the
colonists in a public address. As New
South Wales was a penal colony this made
him unpopular.
He was born in 1872 and succeeded to the
earldom at the age of nineteen. In 1885.
when only tWenty-three years old. he was
elected Mayor of Worcester. At twenty
five he was a member of the School Board
of London
The Lygons have been seated at Madres-
field since the fifteenth century. Early in
the following century the head Of the
family married one of the co-heiresses Of
a Lord Beauchamp whose title had fallen
into allegiance. When. therefore. the new
title was created, in 1915 the name Beau
champ was chosen.

SETBACK FOR HASKELL
Oklahoma Capitol Fight Goes to
Supreme Court

Guthrie, Okla, June f6-Judge A. H.
Huston, in the County District Court here,
to-day overruled the demurrer OF Governor
Haskell TO the petition of County Attorney
Hepburn for an injunction preventing re-
moval of the capital from Guthrie to Okla
homa City. The temporary injunction
issued Monday was continued in force until
further order.
The court held that the enabling act was
valid in imposing the condition that the
capital should remain in Guthrie until 1918;
that the court had Jurisdiction over the per-
son of the Governor in matters where he
had no discretion. and that the County At
torney had the power to file application for
an Injunction. The decision differed from
Attorney General West on all points.
The attempt to remove the capital to
Oklahoma City will now come squarely be-
fore the state Supreme Court. Attorney
Genera, West will apply to the higher court
for a writ of prohibition to set aside the
orders of the District Court. Governor
Haskell IN his demurrer took the position
that as chief executive he was not amen
able 70 the state courts.
Oklahoma CITY, Okla. June Ex-Governor
Haskell issued a proclamation tonight de-
clarins the capital location bill carried and
officially announcing that Oklahoma CITY
had received the greatest number Of votes
The proclamation is based on the complete
election returns furnished the Governor
bv the State election board. The measure
carried by approximately $1,000 majority.
Governor Haskell said tonight that the
overruling of his demurrer by Judge Rus
ton in Guthrie would not in the least inter-
fere with the determination of the State
officials 10 remain permanently in Okla
homa City.
The demurrer was merely basis for
securing a writ of prohibition in case 1t
was overruled." said the Governor. He did
not indicate his intention with reference TO
a writ of prohibition.
A message from William J. Bryan TO
Governor Haskell, received to-day, con-
graduated the Governor on his administra-
ton of State affairs.

Bryan. You have with great ability and
