MA|NETT SUCCEEDS
LEWIS ON COUNCIL
Only Five Members in Attendance Last
Night Causing Emergency
Business to Wait.

John Mainett was elected alderman
from the fourth ward by the city
council, at its regular meeting last
night to succeed F, NJ. Lewis, who
removed to the country. There were
but five members of the council pres
ent and no business requiring the
emergency could be transacted The
contracts for some sanitary sewers
were approved. A petition of a. n.
Green to move a frame dwelling house
across the alley to the lot occupied by
the Green hotel on South Vann street
was granted. The disposition OF other
routine matters and the passage of the
finance bill was the only other bus
mess of last nights meeting. One
item of interest on the finance bill was
the bill for the furnace just installed
in the city hall building. This cost the
city about $3.50.

State VIII pay no Rent2

oklahoma City, Nov. S.-That the
legislature will not make an appropria-
ton to pay rent for state offices in Ok
lahoma City was the opinion expressed
by Senator j. B. Thompson of Pauls
Valley. who was here yesterday.
81 believe that a special session OF
the legislature is necessary to settle
the capital question" said Senator
Thompson. Il am in favor of requir.
ing Oklahoma City to keep its promises
to pay rent, or of moving the capital
back to Guthrie, and | intend to stand
on that ground in my campaign for
congress. The legislature, in my opin-
ion, never will consent to an appropria-
tion to pay rentals for state depart
ments in Oklahoma City, at least it
never will do so with my consent until
Oklahoma City has complied with the
terms of its contract with the legisla-
ture"

WONDERFUL DRAMA seen
At GRAND LAST NIGHT

"The Common Law" at the Grand
theatre last evening fooled a lot of
people who were looking for a drama
tization of Robert w. Chambers novel,
but not many of the large audience
who witnessed the play were kicking
this morning, for they are beginning
to realize that they saw, last even
ing, one of the biggest things threatri.
cal which has ever showed here.
The play is a new one by Lem Par
ker, who was with the company,
watching the production. The present
company and tour are experimental
The play is soon to be produced in
New York City. 1t centers about the
old theme of the proposition of a man
to woman for common law mar
riage," and the dramatic situations
come logically in the development of
the plot until, in the last act, Cyril
Blake, the millionaire, realizes the in
jury he would be doing the woman,
hands her over to the man who loves
her, and at the same time arranges for
him a successful coup in Wall street
Those who say MarcelIa Hamilton
in Three Weeks" will realize the
strength of the company in which sho
was not the star. Miss Daniels, as
Jane Adams. the woman who is tempt
ed and resists, Miss Meredith as her
shallow and snobbish mother, and Ber-
nice Atwood as Lotta, the addle-pater
blonde daughter-in-law, presented
three permanent types of womanhocd
with relentless fidelity to life. Every
one in the cast ought to have special
mention, but Roger DeCoverly, as
Blake, the millionaire, who tries to be
ruthless to the woman he loves, but
can't, though he sometimes stumbled
lin his lines, presented a practically
Ifaultless embodiment of the character
1t was a great show-but it took to
long to arrange the scenery between
acts. In spite of this delay many who
saw "The Common Law" pronounce
it the best play ever seen in Vinita.

THE UNIVERSITY OF
OKLAHOMA FOOTBALL TEAM

The sensational record being made
by the Sooner football team is bringing
it to the attention of people interested
in the gridiron game throughout the
entire west, without doubt it ranks with
the very best teams put out by the
older and larger schools in the Mis-
Isouri Valley conference and its chances
for annexing the championship of the
southwest appear rosy. The general
interest manifested makes a few facts
about the team itself of interest The
coach is Bennie Owen, formerly quar-
terback at the University of Kansas
and sub-quarter at the University of
Michigan Owen was rated as one of
the best quarters in the country when
he played The average weight of the
team is 161 pounds. 1t is one of the
lightest and by all odds the fastest
team Oklahoma has ever had. It's re-
markable strength lies in the speedy
back field which has never been equal
led in the west The men who compose
this back field are Hubert Ambrister
of Norman, quarterback Fred Cap
shaw of Norman, half back; Raymond
ICourtright of Anadarko, halfbaek; ;
Robert Martin of Oklahoma City, half
back; Claude Reeds of Norman, full
back; and Henry Weedn of Tribbey,
sub-fullback. The regular line players
are "Chuch" Rogers of Ozark, Mo, and
Glenn Clark of Comanche, ends; Roger
Berry of Pond Creek and William Moss
of Fairfax, guards; James Nairn of No
wata and Sabert Hott of Alva, tackles;
and Roy Spears of Granite, center. In
its first five games played the team
scored 239 points without having its

goal line crossed but once. thereby es-
tablishing a record that will not soon
be broken.
The winning of the game last week
from the University of Missouri was a
surprise to everyone except those who
have been following the Sooner's de-
velopment The backfeld is light but
unusually strong and the Tigers were
not able to hold them, the final score
being IA to 6 for Oklahoma. Oklaho-
ma fully expected to win and only re.
grets that the Tigers were allowed to
score at all. The team spends the week
in Missouri preparing for the Kansas
University game next Saturday. The
Sooners expect to get their long-sought
revenge on that day, for the defeats ia
the past at the hands of the Jayhawk
ers.

Commissioners Locate Rridne.

The county commissioners today are
inspecting the monthly expense ac-
counts of the various county offices
and allowing various bills The COM
missioners have decided to locate the
bridge to be built across Little Cabin
creek, east of town, on the half section
line running east from the south part
of town. This line crosses Cabin
creek just south of Dave Wits house
and just north of the old Bracket
ford. This location it is believed will
satisfy nearly all concerned. The half
section line will be opened west to the
intersection of Illinois avenue and
thence into the city.

Loss Of Assembly In New York Is BIOw To
Dix Politics---New Jersey Also Elects Repub-
lican Assembly, democratic Governors
Electedln Massachusetts, Kentucky and
Mississippi Joseph TGggart New
Democratic Congressman
From Kansas

made OF the election of Phillip Lee
Goldsborough, republican, candidate
for governor by 5000 majority over
Arthur P, German, democrat while
counter claims of democratic success
were made. The constitutional amend
ment designed to disfranchise negro
voters was probably defeated.
The Ohio municipal elections re-
suited in the election of democratic
mayors in Cincinnati, Cleveland and
Columbus. President Taft cast his vote
in Cincinnati.
In New Mexico the democratic state
committee claims the election of Mac
Donald as governor by $500 in the first
election the new state has held The
result is in doubt. The election of a
republican legislature is indicated and
will mean the election of two republi-
can senators.
Socialist gains marked the elections
yesterday and gave that party power
| in districts where heretofore it has
been unable to muster a counting vote.
In Schenectady, N. Y, the socialists
elected mayor, all city officials, ex-
lcept one and majority of the county
board. In addition the assembly dis
trict in which Schenectady is located.
returned a socialist assemblyman. Ohio
was another winning ground for the
socialists. Ten cities elected socialist
mayors. Results yesterday give them
a total of thousands in advance of any
previous showing.
In the second Kansas congressional
district the socialists made extensive
gains. In several other states, among
them New Mexico, where socialists had
full ticket in the field, further gains
were predicted. In Mississippi, the
socialist candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor polled considerable vote.
Four congressman were elected to
fill vacancies, namely: Joseph A. Tag.
gart, democrat, in the second Kansas
district; w. D. B. Amy, republican, in
the fourteenth Pennsylvania district
William ]. Browning, republican, in
the first New Jersey district, and

Elections held yesterday in many
states and cities throughout the coun.
try resulted in the election of demo
cratic governors in Massachusetts,
Kentucky and Mississippi, a republi-
can governor in Rhode Island, re-
publican assembly in New York which
will challenge the continuance of Gov
ernor Dix's policies; a New Jersey leg
lislature with majorities probably not
in accord with Governor Woodrow Will
son of that state, with results in the
state elections in Maryland and New
Mexico still in doubt.
In Massachusetts, Governor Foss
democrat, was elected by a reduced
plurality of about 5000 over Louis
rockingham, republican. The contest
was Unexpectedly close. The republi-
can candidate for lieutenant governor
was elected by 1000 majority and
other republican state candidates prob
ably are elected.
In Rhode Island, Governor Pothier
republican, is reelected over Louis A.
Waterman, democrat, by a greatly in.
creased plurality. The state senate is
solidly and the assembly largely re.
publican
New York state furnished one Of the
chief surprises, reversing the present
democratic majority of "a in the state
ASSEMBLY and electing a republican ma
jority of fifty. The change removed
the united support which both branches
have heretofore given Governor Dixs
policies In New York City Tammany s
control was shaken but not overcome
Tammany candidates in Manhattan and
the Bronx being elected, while those
| in Brooklyn and Queens county were
defeated by fusion candidates.
! New Jersey similarly furnished a
surprise by the. probable reversal Of
control of the legislature, the returns
at midnight indicating republican ma
jorities in the senate and assembly
In Kentucky, James r. McCreary, a
democrat, was elected governor by a
majority estimated at 10000 to 100000
A democratic legislature was also elect
ed which insures the choice of Con,
gressman ollie James as United States
senator from Kentucky.
! Mississippi elected democratic gov
ernor and state officers by a decisive
majority.
