ELECTION BOARD
DISREGARD ORDERS
OF STATE BOARD

Oklahoma City, August 3.-The Ok
lahoma county democratic central
committee adopted a resolution bar
ring democratic recruits from the re-
publican ranks and independent vot-
ers from the democratic primaries.
On Monday last the criminal court
of appeals handed down Dead Mans
Decision" or The voive From the
Tomb" so-called because the man in
whose name the action was brought
died two years before the offense al
legged was committed The opinion
held against Independents and recruits
from the republican party
On Wednesday, the state election
board sent letter to all county cleo
tion boards, directing that independ-
ents be allowed to re-register and that
registration certificate be accepted
as evidence of party fealty.
Friday, E. A. Ringold, secretary of
the Oklahoma county election board,
declared that he would disregard the
orders of the state board, thus carry
ing out the original disfranchisement
idea of certain political element
From the time that certain element
began playing sharp politics, reac-
ton set in over the state, and criti-
cism of the faction responsible for
methods employed has been criticised
bitterly, and this condemnation is still
growing.

SCHOOL BOARD
TO SIGN BONDS
If Governor Won't We VIII, Is the
Substance of the Resolution
Adopted.

Oklahoma City, August 3.-The an
swer of the state board of education,
constituted as it was before Governor
Cruce ordered the removal of certain
members, to the action of the COVER
nor in refusing to approve the bonds
and sign the contracts with successful
bidders for school textbooks, is con-
tained in set of resolutions which
were adopted Thursday night by R. H.
Wilson, president of the board, and
Robert Dunlop, Scott Glen and Frank
Hayes, "deposed' members.
The substance of the resolutions is
that if Governor Cruce refuses to o.
K the bonds and sign the contracts,
the president and secretary of the
board will approve them in behalf of
the people of the state. It is further
set out in the resolutions that the
bonds which were presented to the
governor for his approval are furnish
ed by the same people who have hith-
erto furnished bonds for book COM
panies, qualified under the laws of the
state to execute such bonds.
The state treasurer Is ordered to re-
turn to bidders the certified checks
which were deposited at the time the
bids were entered.
Whether this action of the board
will start the court proceedings which
will determine whether or not the gov
ernor has the power to remove mem
bers of the board, and if so under what
conditions, remains to be seen. Gov
ernor Cruce said Friday that he had
not yet made up his mind fully whom
to appoint as successors to Dunlop,
Glen and Hayes, but he intimated that
his mind was made up to appoint GER
tain men whoms he knows will be a
credit to the state" More than twenty
applications have been received by the
governor for membership in the school
board, but the governor says that in
this case the effice will seek the man
and that the man need not attempt
to seek the Office.
One man was mentioned as being q
possible appointee provided he viii
serve. This man is out of the state
now and no appointments win be made
probably until the entire slate is com
pleted.

VS. CURTIS
FIGHT IN KANSAS

Topeka, Kans., Aug. S.--If the pres
ent political campaign in Kansas had
much longer to run the big wheat and
corn an dother crops promised for the
state this year would be in grave dan
ger of neglect But fortunately for the
state and the prosperity Of its citizens
the campaign will end with the pri-
maries next Tuesday, leaving the peo-
pie free to turn their attention from
politics.
On the eve of the primaries for the
choice Of candidates for all public Off
GERS from United States senator and
governor down to county officials the
situation is admittedly the most COM
plicated in the political history of the
Sunfiower state. ABOUT the only fea-
ture in connection with the contest
that stands out clearly is the fact that
republican discord has increased the
prospects of democratic. success in
Kansas next November to an extent
that would scarcely have been thought
possible twelve months ago. That the
democrats are alive to their opportun-
ity is evidenced by the fact that there
is great scramble to get on the demo-
cratic ballot, there being an abund-
ance Of candidates in the primaries
for every office to be filled.
The contest for republican presi-
Dental electors has been so bitter as
to attract nationwide attention. The
attempt of the Taft following to de-
feat the enemy by injunction proceed
ings failed, with the result that both
the regulars and the progressives will
have sets OF presidential electors on
the primary ballots. The battle is be-
ing directed by Governor Stubbs. Will
liam Allen White and other Roosevelt
leaders OF national reputation.
Governor Stubbs is fighting for the
republican Endorsement for United
States senator in opposition to Senator
Charles Curtis, whose term win ex-
pire next March and who is a candi-
date for denomination. Senator Curtis

dry goods store, five dwellings and a

from the northwest, the storm soon
assumed the dimensions of a cyclone.
Three or four houses were set on fire
by lightning but after the storm pass

HON. JOE B. THOMPSON
Candidate For Cangressman at Large

Hon. Joe q. Thompson's Home Coming
Some idea of the popularity of Hon.
J. B. Thompson in his home town and
county may be had from the fact that
an elaborate homecoming is being
planned that would do honor to can
didate for president of the United
States.
Mr.. Thompson's friends have made a
careful poll of the state and feel so
sure of his success in the primary
next Tuesday that the homecoming
is to not only show the loyalty and
high esteem of his neighbors and fell
low tawnsmen, but almost partakes Of
the nature Of the celebration Of vic
tory.
Prominent speakers will represent
every town in Garvin county.

is a Taft supporter, while Governor
Stubbs is one of the '.seven governors"
who persuaded Roosevelt to enter the
presidential race. The governor is
making his fight on an out-and-out pro-
gressixe platform.
Four democrats aspire to succeed
Curtis in the senate They are Judge
Thomas L. Bond of Salina, S. n Allen
of Topeka, w. H. Thompson of Garden
City and H. P. Ferrelley of Chanute.
The, republican contest for the guber-
Material nomination is between Arthur
Capper, the Topeka editor, and Frank
j. Ryan of Leavenworth. Capper is
allied with the progressives and Ryan
leans toward the regulars. The demo-
cratic contest for the gubernatorial
nomination is between J. B. Ballard,
mayor of Topeka, and George H.
Hodges OF Olathe, member of the
state senate. The chief plank in Bal
lard's platform is the re-submission of
the prohibitory law, in which he is OPP
posed by Hodges.
In addition to governor, both par
ties will nominate candidates for JUS
tices of the supreme court, lieutenant
governor. secretary of state, auditor,
treasurer, attorney general, superin-
tendent of public instruction, super
intendent of insurance and state prin-
ter. Practically all of the present
state officials are candidates for re-
nomination. District judges and mem
bers of the legislature also are to be
nominated.
Spirited contests are on in nearly
all Of the congressional districts. All
of the present representatives are can
didates for denomination. Anthony Of
the First district and Campbell of the
Third district have opposition. Victor
Murdoch Of the Eighth district, one of
the prominent Roosevelt leaders, is op-
posed for denomination by ]. B. Adams
|of El Dorado. Joseph Taggart, the
|only democratic member of the Kan
sas delegation in the lower house, will
be renominated in the Second district
without opposition.
In addition to the republicans and
democrats, the socialists will have an
almost complete state ticket on the
primary ballots. The socialist party
choice for United States senator is A.
w. Kicker of Girard and for governor,
|G. w. Kleihege of Lawrence. The So
|cialists will have candidates in six of
the eight congressional districts.
Despite the bitterness of the pres
Tent fight between the two factions of
1.-THE republicans the opinion prevails
among the foremost of the party lead

lover the rank and file of the party will

fact that even the most enthusiastic
