Taft Madc Thrce Snceches.

TRENTON, n. j., May 23.-Presl.
dent Taft began his New Jersey cam.
paign today with speeches at Camden,
Burlington and Trenton. The presi.
dent showed the effects of his hard
campaign through Ohio and spoke
with less emphasis than he did last
week
At Camden, whore he addressed a
crowd that filled the armory, no
again deprecated the entrance of a
president into a political controversy
and attacked Colonel Roosevelt In the
same bitter language he used before.
Before speaking in Camden he mo,
tored several miles through the city
streets. lie was frequently cheered.
At the .armory the president spoke
standing on table. AT Burlington no
was met by a brigade carrying Chi
nese lanterns and red fire. At Tren-
ton he motored through streets lined
with cheering crowds.
Warned of Crisis.
in his speech at Camden, which
was much like the other two de-
liyered tonight, the president regretted
the necessity which brought him into
the campaign lie declared he did
not come to clear his political repu-
tation and Is content TO abide the judg-
ment Of the American people, taken
after the clouds nave rolled by and
the Wdsts Of mtrouception cleared
away lie said he could get along
without one torn and that "a second
Is not essential 10 his happiness. He
wanted to warn mis- auditors Of u
crisis in the counry's history that
ought % spur you to activity TO pre-
vent the dangers that threaten us as
constitutional goyc.nment' He claim-
ed that his had been q business ad-
ministration and he wanted To- know In
what respect there had been failure
in It.
Entitled 20 Approval.
"If we have failed" he said, "I am
willing TO submit to your condemna-
tion. If We haven't, WHY. then. we
are entitled to the approval Of tho
people"
Mr. Taft said he Is opposed to Mr..
Roosevelt because Of the character OF
the campaign he had been making,
the unsound constitutional view hs
has held, and because his nomination
would be a departure from tradition
that has been recognized by Wash.
ington, jefferson, Jackson Lincoln
and Mckinley and which has been
by Theodore Roosevelt In
1904 and reinforced by him in 1908.
/ appeal from Theodore Roosevelt now

Mr. TAFT, aud continuing, he declared
1t would be sad day in the his-
tory OF the republic when one mans
existence is essential to our country"

WEST ASKS REHEARING ON IN
DIAN TAX DECISION.
Attorney General Sends Petition TO
Supreme Court Asking for Relief
for Oklahoma

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. May 2S.
Attorney General Charles West oil
Oklahoma today forwarded to Wash
irgton a petition to the supreme court
of the United States for rehearing
of the Indian tax cases. The petition
IS based on the general proposition
Of the Curtis act which removed re-
strictions and proposed to make Ger.
tain lands taxable, was in effect when
the constitutional provisions In regard
to exemptions was adopted and also
when most Of the patents to these
lands were issued. The supreme court
found for the Indians and as a result
unless the court reverses the decision
the state Of Oklahoma stands to lose
about s35,000,000 in taxes.

MANY ARE IN ATTENDANCE
YOUNGER SET APPEAR IN ELNB-
ORATE GONNS-SENIORS But
FOR SIN HOURS.
CLASS IS A SPLENDID ONE
superintendent speaks of Future of
High school In Glowing Terms
Characteristics Without Names.

The most brilliant affair ever stag
ed by the Tulsa high school occurred
last night at the Commercial cub
rooms, when the annual reception 10
the Seniors by the Juniors took place.
The decorations were magnificent and
over l50 stddents and faculty mem-
bers We're In attendance from s
o'clock until midnight An orchestra
furnished music throughout the early
part of the evening. Palms, potted
plants and roses gave AN artistic ap-
pearance TO the scene. The high
school coors, red and white, were
predominant, and pennants We're
tastefully arranged about the walls.
A large banner, reaching from ceiling
to floor, and bearing the initials "I
H. s." graced the wall back Of tho
toastmaster's table.
Some of the gowns worn by the
pretty girl graduates and the mem
bers of the Junior class, were as
elaborate as ever seen here at an af-
fair of the younger set.
AT 10 o'clock the merry party sat
down TO four course luncheon,
which concluded with "A final course
Of ice cream, surmountcd by pine
apple heart, colored red.
G. Wakefield acted as toastmaster
in a most graceful and befitting man
nor and following a few preliminary
remarks introduced Don Roy presi-
dent of the Senior class, who spoke TO
the Seniors Of 1913"
you have been Seniors but six
hours" said Mr.. Roy yet YOU already
feel the grave responsibility OF your
positions
And the Juniors appeared fully ap-
preciative of the fact.
The Best Glass Ever.
Joe quinn. eX-president Of the Jun
Tor class, spoke to the Seniors of
1912" His remarks were witty and
cunning.
Mildred Mari made a decided "hit'
when, in responding to the toast "Our
Col0rs as One, she recited an origin
al poem, that was well composed and
ELECTED much applause.
This is the best class that has ever
graduated from the Tulsa High
school," said Superintendent Downing
in a masterful and impressive speech.
He also spoke Of his successor, Prof.
Koontz, whom he has known for 20
years, and he spoke in the most OPP
timistic terms Of the future of the
high school.
Prof. Katz. beloved Of every student
of the school spoke on the prospects
Of the class of 1913. He reviewed the
characteristics of certain members of
the class, without mentioning names,
and drew much laughter from his au-
ditors.
David Livingston, vice-president of
the Senior Glass, was the concluding
speaker. Lest We Forget was his
subject and his tributes to the indi-
vidual members of the faculty were
truthful and given with much feeling.
He made a short but wonderfully i'm
pressive speech.
The entire assemblage then arose
and the accompaniment Of the orches-
ira sang a few lines of Lest We For
get" Superintendent Downing offer
ed prayer and tn crowd, after receiv-
ing souvenirs of the occasion, depart
ed.
The affair was the beginning Of
