already suffered from the drouth were
killed by the low temperature early
in January" continued MIR. Hansen,

trees stood both drouth and cold.
Some Of the buds were also killed, but
in spite Of the losses from both Of

also suffered to certain extent but

STEPHENS MAKES
STRONG DEFENSE
OF SENATOR GORE
Texas Congressman Submits Minority
Report on the Investigation Takes
Some Hot Shots at Mcclure

Washington, D. c., Mar. 2.-That
Senator r. P Cores charges made in
the senate chamber last year in con-
nsction with the McMurray contracts
were sustained in the subsequent in
vestigation by the Burke committee
and that at least one member Of con
gress, Representative b. 5, Mcclure
Of Oklahoma, displayed a questionable
activity in connection with the Nc
Murray contracts is the conteition Of
Congressman J. H. Stephens OF Texas
in his dissenting report made public
yesterday. Mr. Stephens in his report
says that ~the preponderance of evil
dence shows a questionable activity
on the part on one member that to my
mind indicates an interest"
The evidence proves, says Stephens
an improper proposal to D. G. Mccur-
tain on the part OF McMurray and inn
proper proposals to Governor Green
-.cCurtain on the part Of George w.
Scott, and an improper proposal to WI
A. Durant, speaker Of the Choctaw
council, by George w. Scott and Tom
-Sanguine as well as other questionable
methods and transactions.
Referring to Senator Cores relation
with Hamon and J. F. A7cAIurray sub
sequent to the alleged bribe offer, Mr..
Stephens says:
There is no fixed standard OF con
duct in such a case. Different men
would act differently under such cir
|cumstances according to the differ
ences Of temperament and Judgment.
Some men perhaps would have an
swered Win A hlaw Gore stated $hat

Chicago. Mar. 2.-The Chicago Trib-
une, which caused the sensational in
vestigation Of the election Of Senator
Lorimer by publishing the confession
Of Representative White who declared
that he was bribed to vote for Lorimer
today bitterly arraigned the verdict
returned by the senate yesterday.
In an editorial the Tribune says;
"The vote as corrected leaves Sena-
tor Lorimer a majority of four as the
mathematical measure of his vindt
cation by the senate.
"The quality of the vote cast against
him more than wipes out the majority
for him. In the sense of the nation

body strikes straight at the hand d

his conduct consistent with the end

He forbade Hamon to mention the
subject to him again. and the visits
Of Hamon and the visits OF ATcsfurray
were Of their own seeking. His OBJ

from May until the disclosure was
made in the senate, be wrote letters OF
protest to the attorney general. He
secured the passage Of bill on May

made He also told Senator LaFol-

Carter the next day. He assured La
Toilette that he would make the dis
closures whenever II ever. it became
necessary to protect the Indians. He
did make the disclosure when it be-
came necessary for the protection Of
