that on account OF detective balloy

Guthrie has won with respect %

the contention that the enabling act
fixes the location Of the capital until
1913.
The News never favored the Okla

question was before the people The
News was for Guthrie as The perman-
ent capital location with Oklahoma
City as second choice, The News
knows much more about Oklahoma
affairs now than II knew In June.
