FOR
BIG ATTENDANCE
Students at the stat. University to
Have Good Accommodations
Next Year.

Norman, Okla, July S0.-The accom-
modations for students at the state
university of Oklahoma win be far
better next year than they have ever
been in the past Many people have
hesitated to send their daughters to
the university because of the lack OF
special dormatories where they would
be under the right kind Of supervision
while they were attending the univer-
sity. The unusually strong depart
ment Of music and the new department
of art that was established last year
provide excellent instruction in these
subjects and many have been desir-
GUS Of sending their daughters to take
advantage of this work but have hesi-
tated to do so on account of the lack
of systematic arrangements for lodg-
ing and boarding students. This diff
Guilty is now about to be removed and
the indications are that there will be
very marked growth of the entire uni
versity and especially of the depart
ments Of music, expression, and art.
One of the best private residences in
the city has been leased by the Episco-
pal church which is making arrange
ments to turn It into home for young
ladies attending the university. This
home will be fitted up with all modern
conveniences and comforts and care
full oversight will be provided. There
will be room for only about IA stu
dents in this home
Accommodation for large number
of young ladies will be provided by the

He is renovating this building and ex

and provide as ideal home life as is
possible in dormatory A compet-
ent matron will be in charge and there
will be room in this home for about rs
young ladies' No special religious
affiliation will be necessary to gain
admission to either of these homes.
Besides these two special homes al
number Of private residences are be-
ing erected in Norman this summer
many of which will have rooms for
rent to students The completion Of
the excellent sewer system and the
extension Of the waterworks system
have brought about great improve
ment in the accommodations for stu

NAMED
AS POSSIBILITY
Believed That Roosevelt Viii Look
With Favor on Exchief Fores-
ter's Candidacy.

New York, July 30.-Gifford Pinchot
former chief forester under Roosevelt,
took a place yesterday upon the list
Of possible candidates for the republi-
can nomination for governor of New
York and Roosevelt was asked to sup
port his candidacy.
The ex-president has not said any
thing that in any way resembles an
outspoken declaration in favor Of any
candidate, but it is believed he does
not look unkindly upon the boom.
DR. Samuel McCune Lindsay, for
mer commissioner of education of
Porto Rico and a professor in Colum-
bia univirsity, is the man who launch
ed the new boom. He had long and
confidential talk today with Colonel
Roosevelt and left with the air Of a
man well pleased with the turn things
had taken.
DR.. Lindsay explained that although
Pinchot had often been absent from
the state in recent years he had al
ways retained his legal residence in
this city and he regularly voted here.
DR.. Lindsay is close friend of both
Colonel Roosevelt and Pinchot In
common with other friends he has
been working quietly on the Pinchot
boom for some time and first suggest
ed to Pinchot himself the possibility
that he might run. No definite an
swer, he said was returned.
Colonel Roosevelt was told today
that in the opinion of Pinchot's friends
he could draw support from the same
sources which had been a power to
Governor Hughes in past campaigns.

The insurance commissioner has his
particular domain and does well to
Efill that. Other departments Of state
have their powers and duties and can
be relied upon under democratic ad-

administration needs no apology. AS

A roll call of the companies and as

companies with the approval of the
insurance commissioner will show that
the interests of the insuring public
have been carefully safeguarded and
al policy contracts unfair to the as,
