such mistakes were expected to be dif-
covered In increasing numbers as the
day advanced.
The election board consists Of Sam

At 1880 p m. only dozen appli-
cations for changes had been made,
however, and Indications at that hour
were that no pilikia would be encoun-

to be due to typographical mistakes

OKLA. DELEGATES
ARE APPOINTED
Every County in the State Represented
at Convention Today.

Oklahoma City, July 24.-That Okla
homa is still for Roosevelt for presi
dent was demonstrated today in the
state convention Of the progressive
party attended by three hundred en-
thusiastic delegates from every coun
ty In the state. A. A. Davidson Of
Muskogee was made chairman. Com
mittees were appointed and the con
vention adjourned until afternoon,
At the afternoon session delegates
were elected to attend the Chicago
convention, August 5, all of them in
structed to vote for Roosevelt fol
president. The resolutions embrace q
scathing rebuke to the republicans fol
stealing the nomination for Taft al
Chicago and declare that American
people demand square deal in the
nomination of the presidential candi
date as we'll as everything else.
The delegates to the convention are
greatly encouraged on account of the
fact that so many voters over the
state have registered as independent
voters and also on account of the rul
ing of Attorney General West that any
voter in the state, whether registered
as an independent or not, may vote
any ticket he desires in the genera
election. West also holds that ths
voters may cast any ballots they de
side in the primary election. This
! it is said, will give the progressive
party the chance to carry the state fol

The Bell Boy Musical Comedy com

best line Of bills that have ever been
presented in this city by any company

"Zira From Turkey" was the name
OF last nights bill and the action of
the story, the musical numbers and
the beautiful and suggestive stage pic
lures presented, served to more firmly
establish the actors regulations in the
city. The members of the cast take
an interest in their work and all the
stiff and mechanical acting that is.
drilled into them by innumeral re-
hearsals is not to be found. The vim
and earnestness with their acting
makes the play much more enjoyable
to the audience and marks the per-
formers as actors OF more than COM
mon ability.
The musical numbers of last evening
were also very good and the one en-
titled "Cuddle Up" by the two leads,

Oklahoma City, July 24.-The tele-

in an Oklahoma court today in connec-
ton with the mandamus suit brought
before the criminal court of appeals
by County Attorney w. v. Thraves OF
Nowata county to compel District
Judge T. L. Brown to allow change
of judge in the H. o. Jeffries murder
case.
Affidavits were presented from de-
tective employed by Thrayes who told
of hearing a conversation in the Office
of Bert Van Leuven, attorney for JEFF
fries, in which the testimony in the
case was read and discussed, and said
that he recognized Judge Browns
voice.
Strong indications we're given by
members of the court of their belief
that they had no jurisdiction in the
case and serious doubt was expressed
as to whether there was any way in
Oklahoma by which miscarriage OF
justice through prejudice of judge
in favor of defendant could be cor

Vinita, Oklahoma, July oath, 1912
To the Editor of the Chieftain:
am informed that the ministers of
the town are assuming again, in an
aggressive fashion, the ancient Puri-
tanical attitude toward Sunday pleas
ures. AT least the Sunday pleasures
of the poor. / have as yet heard no
suggestion, except in irony that the
garages where the well-to-do keep
their automobiles should be closed on
Sunday so that it should be impossible
to get the machines for Sunday pleas
ure-driving But Sunday afternoon
baseball games, and the possibility of
Sunday evening theaters and moving
picture shows, have worried the
preachers past endurance. should
like to make an appeal to the sober
second thought of the ministers and
church people of the town after a
little study of the Scripture; which
they take, of course, as our final au-
thority on the question.
The teaching of the Bible in regard
to the Sabbath, runs back into the
Ten Commandments. The Command
ment dealing with that subject bids us
first to remember the sabbath day to
keep it holy" Then it tells hoH it is
to be kept holy" What is to be
done on that day to keep it separate"
fro mthe other days of the week. For
separation is the root meaning of the
term holy" especially in the Old
Testament. A "holyday," in the Old
Testament sense, is day which. be-
cause God has some peculiar claim up
on it, is spent in way different from
other days. The Commandment goes
on to Etate the respect in which It
shall be kept different from other
days; IN it thou shalt do no work I

Pryorvinita Contest.

Three months ago the Bible schools
Of the First Christian church of this
city and Pryor Greek entered on a
contest Next Sunday this contest
will close. 1t has been remarkable
contest for the race has been neck
and neck from the beginning. 1t has
now come to the home stretch and no
one can even guess who will win.
From the records of the two schools
one stands just as good a chance rs
the other. Much good has come 10
both schools and it is believed the en-.
thusiasm which has been generated
by 1t will not die down after 1t is over.
Vinita stands just Al points in the
lead. That is so small lead as to
mean nothing. Four pupils next Sun
day can Offset that number.
But Vinita is going to win. We must
win. We have more people, larger
church, better equipment and win we
must. To do this every member must
get in the work the rest of this week
We are going to have 400 pupils here
next Sunday. Every member of the
church and school is urged to begin
