Principal TirrelI.


The cheering trbled in volume as he
was led forward into the freight and
smilingly addressed the crowd. say
ing that he was glad to offer con-
gratulations to the successful team,
and one thing he liked about them was
the spirft they had shown in constant
~ improving through the season. Their
first game had been a defeat, but 1T
had seemed to do them good, and they
showed the right spirit by coming up
for better fight after the first
Touchdown. Principal Tirrell said he
did not wish to make any comparisons
Of the members of the team, but he
believed that Capt Jimmy Murray had
had much to do with its success. This
proved good cue for later speakers
who managed to make their escape
from the box by advising that it was
time to look for Captain Murray.
Cheers for the favorite Academy cap
tain greeted Principal Tirrell's ref
erence and the scouts set out to look
him up. He was reported to be over
in Chelsea parade. but nothing result
ed when search party went after
him.
Dr. BunneII Heard.
sJJr Bunne1l was next extricated
from the crowd by a dozen willing
helpers, who rushed him over to the
box and held him on the platform, in
spite of one vigorous attempt at es-
cape DIR. BunneI briefly addressed
the crowd, saying that he was having
honors thrust upon him to which he
was not entitled, since he had not
had anything to do with the baseball
team, but he would talk football any
time. He was proud to be connected
with a school that could boast such a
team as represented the Academy in
baseball this year, but he thought ii
was about time again to look for Cap
tain Murray.
With cheers the scouts dispersed
on the search for another orator, this
time capturing Charles 1cLaughlin
who pitched the Academys 19-innins
record breaking game against Bulke-
ley in 1908. He was boosted to the
box and replied with a few words OF
congrarulation for the team. The eel
ebration went on in a general way UNI
til shortly after 9 o'clock when the
fire had burned out and the crowd dis
persed.

MESSAGE STlRS LEGISLATURE
Members Aroused to Protect States
Public Building Warrants.

Oklahoma City, okla. Feb. 9-The
recent message OF Governor Cruce
in WHICH he stated that nearly $780,
OOO Of public building warrants re-
main unsold with no immediate mar
ket for them. has aroused members
of the legislature to the necessity
of remedial legislation to make the
warrants more salable.
State Treasurer Dunlop stated to-
dav tha; he believes if the public
building warrants were made to bear
6 per cent interest instead Of 5, and
IL the state would place itself square
ly behind them, that a much better
market would be created for this
class of paper He is also of the
opinion legislation should be enacted
requiring banks to pledge state and
county warrants. including public
building warrants, as security for de-
rosits Of state school funds. At

present the school land department
accepts surety bonds among other
classes OF paper permitted by the
constitution as security for school
funds. Treasurer Dunlop says that
he had adopted the policy OF ex-
GLIDING surety bonds as security for
state deposits under his control. II
all departments OF state having con
troll of the state funds were compel
county and municipal securities. Of
the kind approved by the consti.
tuition as security for state deposits
a greatly increased demand for state
warrants, would be created among
the banks This remedy. together
with a law putting the stae behind
the public building warrants and
raising their interest rate to per
cent, which would make them equally
as good an investment as general
revenue warrants, in the opinion Of
State Treasurer Dunlop, would solve
the financial problem the state is
now facing with reference TO its
public building fund.
Treasurer Dunlop today sold sl2,-
500 of public building warrants to
he Second Bank of Enid He also
stated that in April he expects to
take up from sl,OO0,OOO TO 1880 900
of general revenue warrants. which
viii cut the warrant Indebtedness OF
the safe materially. While The state
began drawing against the general
revenue fund created from 1901
taxes July last. very little money
has yet come into the state treasury
from the collection Of these taxes,
owing TO the fact that they were
not delinquent until January /. He
expects, however. 10 collect nearly
Sl50O,O00 from state taxes between
now and April. when he expects
to issue the next call.
II is very probable that a bill
Will be introduced at this session
carrying out the plan, in part at
least, suggested by State Treasurer
Dunlop. House and senate leaders
have already had several confer
ences with Governor Cruce in re-
gard to the matter.

criticism which has been leyeled at

failure TO utilize a large part OF the
money appropriated by congress for
the installation of rural free delly-
cry routes was answered today IN

condition exists. The explanation is
in form Of a letter to Representa-
TIVE Sissons of Mississippi, one OF
the many congressman who have
been demanding to know why the
congT essional appropriations have
no. been used up in the creating Of
new rural routes. Denying that the
failure TO establish new routes was

my in governmental expenditures by
depriying any part of the 'ade-
quate postal facilities the letter
says
The advantages OF a merger OF
the rural toutes and star routes, so
as to bring them under one bureau
of the department, are app2rent
Some department reorganization was
necessary TO do this, involving the
creation of a new division. designa,-
ed the division OF rural mails The
effect of this merger is toward econ
omy and greatly increased efficiency.
The enormous expansion of the rural
service, which, in recent years. has
caused II to be the second largest
source of loss in the pos.al opera
ton, makes necessary the careful
and comprehensive survey of the
field, and until such -eview and con.

Kansas City. Mo, Feb. "a state

place where inebriates could be kept

should be effectively cured.
"Drunkards and drug users are
brought here every day Doctor Lus-

for We have no authority to keep them
here against their wishes.
Our experience has been Il at near
ly all the patients released in that
way return to their old surroundings.
The spirit OF good fellowship, or per
haps desire TO cure the blues,
prompts them TO fall back into their
old habits. The cure has been only
a temporary benefit. The trouble is
they are not kept under treatment
long enough.
My idea is 20 have state farm
to which courts, on the advice OF med
ical examiners, could sentence drunk
ards and drug users for a term long
enough 10 break them permanently OF
their bad bahits. | believe the way
TO deal with intemperance is to deal
with individual cases. Keep the vic
tins in wholesome surroundings a
year or more. not like criminals, OF
course, but as patients, voluntary or
Involuntary. Give them work and
wean them from their old surround
