PLANS ARE BEING PERFECTED
AND MANY TOWNS ClAMORlNG
FOR ADMISSION.

The baseball fever has struck this
neighborhood, and 1t is evident that
a determined effort will be made TO
include Ardmore in the proposed
new Glass d League to be formed
of several Oklahoma and north Tex
as towns. Letters have been receiv-
ed from many of these places ask
ing information, and expressing a
willingness to get into organized
baseball.
A new feature developel last week.
1t was and is the intention of the
promoters TO create a Texas-Oklaho-
ma league. but the suggestion has
come from some OF the towns that
were not mentioned in the original
plans that it might perhaps be
good idea to create an Oklahoma
league exclusively. The matter will
be thoroughly canvassed after the
holidays, and an opportunity given
all towns TO state Just what they
will do toward making the league a
success. A meeting will be called af-
ter these towns have been visited
ut some central point and the league
perfected.

Ruling by Attorney General.

Guthrie, Okla, Dec. 10.-Gov. Has
kell has inquired of the attorney
general as to whether he can have
the state agency department deposit
$4,000 to the credit of his prohibition
fund, TO take the place of a similar
amount, which, he says, was wrong
fully paid out of the prohibition fund
to state agency officers. The attor-
ney general says the only way to get
the money back is through the leg
islature.
The attorney general today held
that county superintendents could
not draw s. per day extra pay for
acting as members of the county ex-
amining board, and that the So per
day allowed county commissioners
for bridge work is supposed to cover
all the expenses of such work.
The city of Edmond has inquired
of the attorney general relative to the
adoption of a commission form OF

REVENUE COLLECTOR.
President Appoints Personal Friend
and Schoolmate.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Dec. To-
The appointment by President Taft
OF George 7. Knott OF Oklahoma City
to be revenue collector for Oklaho-
ma, district but recently organized.
develops the fact that the appoint
ment was purely a personal one with
the president, as Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Knott We're schoolboys together back
in Ohio many years ago.
The Knott appointment has further
developed the fact, however, that IL
sidetracked the plan of the personal
and political friends OF George ii.
Dudson OF Oklahoma City, secretary
OF the republican state committee
and one of the organizers of the
party In old Oklahoma, to land him
in the revenue collector position. Mr..
Dodson's's recommendations, 1t is un-
derstood, were fully sufficient to have
secured for him the appointment, had
not Mr.. Taft made OF 1t a personal
matter. Mr.. Dodson became secre-
tary OF the republican state commit
tee, following the grass roots" state
convention last June, and was active
during the campaign, travelling over
the entire state TO organize the party
workers.
In this connection, It IS learned
that the friends OF Mr.. Dodson are de-
manding that he be appointed post
master at Oklahoma City, especially
since Mr.. Taft saw fit 10 make a per
sonal appointment Of the revenue col
lectorship. They show where Dod-
son was one OF the first Taft dele
gates elected in the state; that he
was secretary OF the first republican
convention ever held in old Oklahoma
Territory and that he has been a new
er-ceasing party worker since that
time. The present incumbent at Ok
iahoma City Is f. Il. Brown. who is
asking reappointment for a third
term.
