COUNTYSEAT WARM
DELAWARE COUNTY
Officials of Delaware County Decide to
Move From Jay Back to
Grove.

Grove, Okla, Feb. THE county
officials of Delaware county have de-
cided to move back to Grove and re-
main there until some authority deter
mines and establishes the real court
house for the county.
This action was taken at a meeting
of tie county officials following an at
tempt of ed. West, county clerk, to go
from the old court house in old Jay to
the new comfy court house where the
county con Aissioners ordered Sheriff
Hogan to move the records. J. Wash
burn, the founder of the town of Jay,
and dozen or more other determined
citizens promptly locked the doors of
the county clerks office and convinced
him in short order that ne was not
moving.
About week ago the county COM
missioners issued an order to move
the records. The order was issued to
the sheriff. He appealed to the gov
ernor. The governor said it was a
local matter and he would not inter-
fere. Tuesday was the next meeting
day of the county commissioners. w.
E. Carver, one of the commissioners,
went to the new court house. U. c..
Gray, another commissioner, showed
up at the old court house. Frank Dial,
the third commissioner, was at home,
said to be sick. In pursuance of the
last order of the commissioners Coun-
ty Clerk West started to leave the old
court house to go to the new one,
where he supposed the session of the
commissioners was to be held, with the
necessary records for the meeting un-
der his arm. He was met by Wash
burn and other determined citizens,
Sho are said to have locked the doors
of the county clerks office with the
celrk inside, and promptly convinced
hi mthat he was not going to move at
that time It looked like trouble for
while, and doubtless there would
Z have been had any further attempt
been made to move the records.
1t was following this demonstration
that the county officials at Jay got
together and decided that they would
return to Grove, the old county seat,
and remain there unit lit is finally de-
termined where the county court
house is. The county attorney and
the county judge havt never moved
their offices from Grove.
The situation is retasding county
business and growing more and more
embarrassing.

KNOCK HOOK OUT
President Taft Gives Up His Intention
to Appoint Judge Hook to su-
preme Court Bench.

Washington, d. c., Feb. THE ex-
listing vacancy on the supreme court
bench, the fifth that has occurred in
the present administration, probably
will be filed by the appointment of
Secretary Of Commerce and Labor
Charles Nagel OF st. Louis.
President Taft is expected to send
tie nomination of Mr. Nagel to the
senate within few days United
States. lodge william c. Hook of Kan
sas, who ontil last night was most
prominently mentioned for the vacancy
is said to have been eliminated from
further consideration at an hours ses-
sion of the cabinet today. All of the
lawyers in the cabinet except Mr..
Nagel were present, and afterwards it
was learned the president had made
clear his intention of appointing his
secretary of commerce and labor.
This report was so generally cred
tied tonight that rumor was busy with
a possible successor to Mr.. NageI in
the cabinet Louis Marshall of New
York and Oscar Rosenwald of Chicago
were mentioned among those who
would be considered.
Judge Hooks name was scratched
from the presidents list today almost
at the eleventh hour. This action was
said to be due to his concurrence in a
Jim Grow" law decision in an Okla
homa railroad case. Both the presi-
dent and Attorney General Wicker
sham are understood to hold the opin-
ion that Judge Hook went too far" in
this case, and Secretary of State Knox,
Secretary of War Stimson and Secre-
tary Of the Interior Fisher, the other
lawyers present at the cabinet meet
ing, evidently agreed.

CHEROKEE CHIEF
AGAINST BRADY
w. c. Rogers of skiatook Declares He
is Not Supporting Voter For
euffey.

Skiatook, OKLA. Feb. THE follow
ing letter from w. d. Rogers, of Ska
took, Okla, principal chief of the Cher
okee Nation, refutes the claim made
by Tate Brady that Chief Rogers and
the Cherokee Indians are for him in
his fight for national committeeman.
Tate Brady is laying great stress on
his connection with the Indians of Ok
lahoma, falsely claiming to be a men,
Der of the Cherokee tribe. Brady is a
white man, with no Indian blood in his
body, while his wife is only one-sixty-
fourth Cherokee, born in Georgia and
myed to the Indian Territory in her
youth. Brady expects to gain the sup
port of the Indian voters on this dis
tant connection. Chief Rogers letter
follows:
Il hereby endorse the candidacy of
Hon. Robert Galbreath, of Tulsa coun-
ty, Oklahoma, for the position of DEM
Iocratic national Committeeman.
Il make this statement in order to
correct the impression Mr.. Tate Brady,
Mr.. Galbreath's opponent for the Office
of national committeeman, has caused
to be circulated through the country to
the effect that am supporting him for
the office above referred to.
II want to state that believe Mr..
Galbreath is loyal and consistent
democrat; that he has shown himself
to be in favor of democratic principles
by offering to submit his candidacy to
county primary to determine which
should be Tulsa county's candidate,
himself or Mr. Brady; that he has said
both publicly and privately that if he
had been member of the national
committee he would never have voted
to seat Mr.. James M. Guffey of Pennsyl.
vania as a member of the national
committee, and this meets my hearty
approval, as | believe that Guffey
should never have been seated as a
member of said committee after his
treason to our party.

Principal Chief of the Cherokee
Nation, Skiatook, Okla

Professor Barrett Writes indian story.


One more volume is added to the
long list of books written by members
of the Oklahoma University faculty
The latest is by Prof S. M. Barrett of
the department of education of the
sooner school, 1t comes to the public
under the title "Mocco" and is mas
terly character study, dealing with the
life of an Indian from childhood to
mans estate The critics pronounce
the volume one of merit both as his
torical study and as work of fiction
1t is characterized by the same simple
but facile diction which has caused
Professor Barrett's text books on his
tory and pedagogy to find ready ac
ceptance in the schools, and combines
true insight into the problem of char
acter study with action rapid enough
to keep up a lively interest in the
story. Despite its fictional interest, the
book is designed primarily as an ex
position of Indian life and the inter
esting traits and customs of the rec
man. Herein it's greatest value lies
to the thoughtful reader and the stu
dent of the attractive lore of van
fishing race.

If anybody were asked to suggest
why the soup plate was made broad
and shallow the almost certain answer
would be that such an arrangement
facilitates the cooling Of the soup to a
temperature comfortable to the mouth
We believe that utilitarians drink tea
out of a saucer for the same reason.
While that may be the explanation of
the peculiar shape of the soup plate,
the advantage indicated is surely in
significant compared with the obvious
disadvantages which may probably
arise from exposing so large a surface

should be served in a cup, a low broad

REMOVE THe CONFLICT.

The conflict OF authority that pre-
walls in Hot Springs and in Garland
county can be traced TO but one truth
aid THAT is that the people do not
rule.
We have government here in Hot
Springs by the authority oe the peo-
pie, as represented in The city ad.
ministration.
Then we are having patrol ct Cen.
trail avenue by the authority of an
appointlye sheriff, working under the
direction of an appointive prosecut-
ing attorney, these two working UNI
der the sanction of an appointing
governor, the latter now seeking a
third term.
Naturally, there Is conflict.
Rights of the people to select their
own public officials would az least
guarantee that they select all OF a
same disposition, and whether these
selected by the people we're .or one
policy or another. they would at least
agree.
Almost everybody agrees that con-
flIct is our greatest burden at this
time in Hot Springs.
There will be a nominating election
this month which win be the first
step in the removal of appointive Of
ficers and the restoration OF elective
officers.
Even then. when the leople say
who they want for their county and
district and state officers, there will
not be actual relief until after pres.
ent terms are ended, but the step
to be taken on March 81 is the first
and most important step.
1t viii be we'll if every legal voter
I'm Hot Springs and Garland county
participates in this election. Every
man should vote some way. Our cleo
tioia, Saii1cu va aH ivy INV a. y
under conditions that make results
strictly in keeping with the ballots
as cast. 1t Is method of public ex-
preston the people should not resist.
Think out the situation for your
self, vote as your Judgment dictates,
and then in succeeding elections do
the same. until you see a condition
in this city and county where the ma
jorlty rule, and then abide that ma
jority rule with good grace to the
end of peace and prosperity, just as
it is the duty of every good citizen
to do. DO that much for your home
