TALKING GARRETT
FOR MARSHAL
FRIENDS OF CARTER COUNTY
SHERIFF WILL URGE HIS Ap-
POlNTMENT AS U. S. MARSHAL

The friends Of Buck Garrett are
planning to have the Carter county
sheriff succeed Grant Victor as Unit
ed States marshal of the Eastern
District of Oklahoma when that gen
tleman's time is out and when
Woodrow Wilson has been inaugu-
rated president.
Those who are interested in the
appointment of Mr.. Garrett could not
use their endeavors in behalf OF a
better man for that position. He has
been an officer al, his life. His
first work was under Sheb Williams
when sihcffoi .ymh hm shrdshrd
whwen his office was at Paris, Tex.
tory. Mr.. Garrett worked out of
Ardmore for Charley Stowe when
the latter was United States mar
sha., and then again ne saw service
under Captain Hammer. There is
no part of the work that he is not
familiar with and in all the south
west there is not man who could
more ably fill this important posi-
ton He has served as chief of
police and as sheriff and his long
service in office has given him a
minute acquaintance with criminals
and with their methods and equip
ments. His knowledge Of men would
lead him to surround himself with
an able set of deputies that would
inspire obedience to the law IN this
portion of the state.
The Ardmoreite joins with the
other friends of Mr.. Garrett in
wishing him success should he ever
count himself as an applicant for
the position.

Fort Worth, Texas, Nov 11.-De-
fendants final motion for contin-
uance of the J. 3. Sneed case
will be filed at 9:3G o'clock tomor-
row morning.
The state announced ready as
the case had been called this morn
ing The defense made no announce
ment until after the roll call OF wit
nesses, and then asked for a contin
uance on the ground that three i'm
portant and material ones were alb
sent and could not be located. Time
was given to reduce the motion to
writing and the special venire was
excused until $50 o'clock tomorrow
morning
Prior to this the defense filed a
plea to jurisdiction. alleging that
Sneed had been indicted by the Six
ty-Seventh District Court grand jury
and the case had been transferred
to the Seventeenth District Court
for trial without notice to defend
ant o. counsel of defendant. The
criminal docket of the Seventeenth
District Court was produced to show
that the order for transfer had been
of the Sixty Seventh District Court.
Court Minutes Produced.
The SixtyISeventh District Court
minutes, however, contained the or
der and Clerk Brock testified that
a 'loose-leaf" system was used in
keeping the dockets, so that entire
pages could be transferred from one
book to the other.
Judge Tom Simmons testified
that he made the entry on the Grim
inal docket, transferring the case
from his court to that of Judge
Swayne, at the request OF the county
attorney, and that neither defend
ant nor his counsel was present.
SneedS counsel, lie said had pre-
viously objected to the transfer be-
ing made and had not subsequently
consented.
The order on the criminal docket
was exhibited to the court by Mr..
Mclean Of counsel fol the defense.
1t was abbreviated and appeared
thus, written in pencil: "6-7-12-
Trans. 18th Dist" The minute book
of the Sixty-Seventh District Court
gave full details Of the order and
covered a page or more. .
Judge Swayne overruled the plea
to jurisdiction and the roll call of
witnesses was had. Names of about
fifty were called, and about two
thirds of that number were found
to be absent, but the majority were
reported to be on the way here from

WILSON WILL TELL
Of EXTRA SESSION
INDICATES HE MAY MAKE AN
NOUNCEMENT TO GUIDE CON-
GRESSMEN

Princeton, n. j., Nov. 1.-Presi-
dent elect Wilson indicated today
that he might make an announcement
within few days as to whether he
will call an extra session of congress
to revise the tariff.
He had intended delaying any an
nouncement along this line until his
return from his proposed vacation
about Dec. 16. 1t was suggested to
him, however that congressman
would benefit by an early announce
ment because they could arrange Tor
accommodations at Washington for a
definite period.
Il had not thought of that, said
the governor. OF course, don't
see any public need for announcing
my decision now, except, perhaps, to
quiet any speculation as to whether
/ had fully intended to delay announc-
ing what was going to do until after
| got back from my vacation. | was
going to hear and read opinions in
the meantime.
Its very interesting-the consen-
sus of OPINION on the extra session.
"You mean the opinion in favor of
it?' he was asked.
Yes.
He would not say, however, what
his decision would be.
Labor in Cabinet.
Governor Wilson expects to name
along with the other members of his
cabinet, an executive for the pro-
posed department of labor.
q hope there will be new mem
ber for the cabinet for the department
of labor, he said. 1T will be very
important selection to make. Every
body confidently expects it and have
been told that all sides in congress
favor the new department. The i'm
mediate creation of the department is
of course, dependent on the action OF
the approaching session of congress

Grend1 Gets Chance at
Kramer at Five M1IeS

what happened Wednesday in the
championship.
Frank Cavanagh, the Irish cham
pion, Is looking forward to a big day
tomorrow. The local star has figured
1t out since the running of the cham
pionship Wednesday that he who hesi-
tates in a bike race is lost, and he
has got the right dope, too. Frank
made the fatal mistake of waiting
too long in that ace and he was
placed fourth. Kramer and Grenda
made him look foolish, but he realizes
that had III gone to the front with
his long sprint there never would
have been more than one man pass
him at the finish, and there is some
doubt as to whether n would have
passed the flying Celt.
In the future Cavanagh says he is
going to ride his races from the front
and take no chances of being ''sewed'
in any more. If he will follow this
plan of battle Cavanagh will come
very near being one, two, three In
every race, for he has got the speed
and the strength to cope successfully
with the best of them. CaVanagh Will
have a try in the one-mile open and
the two-mile handicap tomorrow. The
open will be run in heats with eight
riders in the final, and the handicap
will be run with thirty-four starters
in one heat. All of the stars will
compete in both of these races.
Jimmy Moran will try to prove that
he is still some middle-distance rider
in tha ten-mile naced race. which will
top off tomorrow's card. James has
not won a race this year, but he is
confident hat he will earn brackets
tomorrow. Ernie Pye and Clarence
Carmen will be Jimmy's opponents.
The three amateur events, a one
mile novice, half-mile handicap and
"miss-and-out" race, have brought
out an unusually large field of simon
rures, owe fifty being eligible for the
"miss-and-out."

To George Vreeland, of Division f,

had two irsts-in the 440-yard run
and 50-yard dash-and strolled in a
second in the half mile. George was
up among the leaders at the first
annual affair held last year.
Three "Pru" records went by the
board. Arthur Donnelly, of the re-
newal department, was the first lad
to hang up a new mark. He won

5 minutes 3-5 seconds. The old
mark of 6 minutes 2 AS seconds was
held by Charles Mum. Andy Graef
smashed the running broad jump
mark by one foot and n inch, max
ing a remarkable leap of 10 feet 2
inches. The Industrial team lowered
the old record for the special relay,
lettering the former mark of a min

TRAVIS SHOULD WIN
THE WILMINGTON CUP

WILMINGTON, Del, Tune 22'-in
the first and second rounds of match
play in the Wilmington Country
Clubs invitation tournament yester-
day Walter Travis was, of course, the
great attraction, and big galleries fol-
lowed both of his matches. He won
both with comparative ease ana
should experience no great difficulty
in winning the Wilmington Cup. In
the first round in the morning he de-
feated G. o. Suddards, 5 up and 3 TO
play. but in the second round p. SAT-
terthwaite gave him a better match,
and might have pushed him even
harder if he had not been a trihe Off
in his putting. He generally outdrove
Travis and was almost equally as
good as his opponent with his APP
nroach shots, but on the greens ne
was inferior to the Garden City
He did not have the best OF luck
either, for twice the ball hit the cup
and hoped out again.
