Statement to Public.
Gov. Cruce issued a statement to
night, which is in part as follows:
81 have been both surprised and
panied that Col. J. J. McAlcster has
seen proper to take advantage Of my
temporary absence from the state to
undertake to exercise The functions Of
governor. The people should not be
harsh in passing criticism upon his
acts. The act performed last night
at 10 o'clock is but a fitting culmina-
ton of the efforts that have char
actorized those Who from the begin
ming, have attempted to fo.st upon the
people a book adoption which has
been thoroughly rerudiated by all fair
minded peopld and which is now
pending in the supreme court Of tn
state for final adjustment. Charac-
lied by such haste as has never been
known before in public affairs, an
attempt was made to adopt FOR the
school children books to be used for
the next five years. Every act from
that fatal Sunday night July 2S, 1912,
until the final culminat on last n ght
at 10 o'clock has been without re-
gard for the welfare of the people Of
the state and wholly at war with ey-
cry interest and right of the school
children of Oklahoma. | want to warA
the people that the effort to dismiss
tho litigation pending in the supreme
court will have no effect and that this
litigation will so on under the super
vision of the attorney general until
the supreme court has rendered a fin
al decision in the matter.

What was attempted to be done yes

attorney general to ignore the in

wise notified all the book companies
in this controversy that un-
der no circumstances will they BE-
permitted to put their books into op-
Grafton in Oklahoma under the sup

THE unconditional pardon of Grim
