GOVERNOR CRUCE
IN JOINT RAID
Visitation" in Oklahoma City Friday
Night May Lead to Action
Alarms Quickly Given.

Oklahoma City, Aug. 20.-To test
the truth of the many conflicting
stories about fragrant violations of the
prohibitory law in Oklahoma City, as
well as to determine what embargos,
if any, the states officers were COM
PEELED to overcome in law enforce
ment, were what impelled Governor
Lee Cruce to lead strongarm squad
of his personal selection Friday night
and make series of raids. Ten
joints were visited. In all but two
the plants" a term used to denote
the stock of liquids, had been effec-
lively concealed. The governor is con-
vinced, however, that in these pre-
election times intoxicants are permit
ted to be sold in more or less open
contempt for the statutes, and he has
the local conditions under considera-
tion by the Attorney Generals depart
ment. What plans he will pursue were
not revealed.
Governor Cruce found the stories
of barricaded doors, watched Railways
and of a business comfy between Joint
keepers, as reported to him, to be
true. He was amazed with the rapid
ity with which the inmates not only
got away with their stuff, but made
their getaway when the arm of the
law hove in sight. 1t was all new to
the governor of Oklahoma, yet an old,
old story to the denizens of the
street

In Wrong Building.
The first place visited was on one
of the main thoroughfares of the
town and came near causing the even
ing's excursion to be. turned into a
huge joke Special officer Gilmore Of
the states force stationed himself at
the rear of the building to catch the
ones in hurried flight from the joint.
while the Governor and State Een-
forcement Officer Caudill ambled
through the front door of cigar and
pool room. Several of the frequent
ers knew the governor by sight. They
stepped respectful distance and won
dered what it was all about. Several
crowded through the swinging doors
to observe. As the governor and eau
dill neared one of the rear windows
Gilmore poked his head through and
whispered:
You fellows are in the wrong
place. It's the house next door"
AS far as the governor was con-
cerned that was perfectly natural
error. The party moved next door
with more success. Frequenters there
did not know the governor, but they
did Caudill, and bang" whent the big
door and "chug" went the steel bar
behind it. The governor of Oklahoma
and his state enforcement officer were
kept waiting on the outside fully five
minutes before there was any sign
of wanting to admit them. All the
time there was hurry and hustle be-
hind the door, and the sound of mov-
ing furniture, much the same as is
sues from behind a curtain at the
opera house between acts. The gov
ernor said he thought they were va
eating the premises. After the plant
had been concealed the loungers ran
down the rear stairs, but seeing Gil
more scurried back and those who
did not care about being seen in the
place made their escape through one
of the many emergency exists. Then
it was that strip of boy lifted the
bar and asked the governor and Cau-
dill what was wanted
