Dear Miss Grey: am

lem that has been bothering
me for some time, but it Is
too deep for me.
| About one year ago, I met
a girl In another city who
was numbered among the
women of the underworld,
and we became friends. She
told me the story of her life
and that she wished to lead q
better existence.
| She is better than most of
the girls of that class, and
| L am satisfied she is sincere.
i think lot of her, but the
question is, do you think a
girl of that type really re-
forms? L think enough of
her to marry her il Chat
little ifO I could be sure of
her.

as she has proved it. She
nursed me during a severe
case on typhoid, and was de-

statement from Judge Stuart as to
whom he disbursed the sums he re-
eeiyed in gross from the governor
Statement OF Stuart.
The itemized statement rendered by
Judge Stuart shows that he forwarded
$4,000 to Ex-Governor C. N. Haskell,
who in turn divided it among Mr.. Led
better, Mr.. Branson, and Norman Has
kell; that he paid sS,1OO to A. C. Cruce,
and 1920 to Norman Haskell direct;
and $400 to Fred p Branson direct, in
addition to court costs and other lesser
expenditures Judge Stuart states that
he himself received only S1,667 for
directing the cases.
The resolution by Mr.. Chase, tieing
the hands of the school land depart
ment so far as oil and gas leases is
concerned, intends to prevent that de.
|partment making any more such leases
until the legislature passes legislation
regulating SUCH. or adiourns. Mr..
Chase made brief statement, the
substtnce of which was that though
one Tulsa man had offered $1,000
bonus for one section of school land,
he had been turned down, and this
section and 149 other sections, $4,000
acres in all, had been leased to other
parties for $50 bonus, and that bonus
mot to be paid unless producing wells
were struck.

MEYER AND FARR|S
!. TO Be PUT ON TRIAL

Oklahoma City, Jan. 27.-The house
today by an overwhelming majority
voted for the institution OF impeach-
ments proceedings against Leo Meyer,
state auditor, and Giles w, Farris,
state printer.
A communication was read from at
torneys for Farris stating willingness
on the part of the state printer to
submit to the impeachment hearing.
Attorneys for Meyer requested that
the matter be referred back to the
committee to give the auditor a
chance to be heard there. The house
appointed committee today to draw
up the impeachment indictments as
they were presented to the senate and
under the constitution it is then the
duty of the latter body to sit as a
jury and try the cases.
In the midst of consideration by the
senate of bill by Carpenter to give
the state rights to sand and gravel
and minerals in the beds of navigable
streams, Governor Cruce sent mes
sage to the senate incorporation res
olutions from the school land COM
missioners asking to be heard before
the bill was finally disposed of. A
bill on the same subject had been
killed in the house the day before.
The governor declared in his mes
sage that, in spite of prejudice against
the sand and gravel contracts, the
legislature should pass the bill other
wise the state school fund would lose
oil and gas rights alone worth $21,-
100000. The governor attributed
some of the opposition to the bill to
the allied Standard Oil interests. The
senate did not finally dispose of the
bill.

STATE OFFICIALS
TO Be |MPEACHED

Oklahoma City, Jan. 2S.-The off.
cial scandal is gathering headway. To
the various important and open de-
Velopments Monday, including the ac.
ton of the house of representatives
in approving almost unanimously the
committee report recommending inn
Deachment of State Auditor Leo Meyer
and State Printer Giles w. Farris, was
added Monday night the report that
members of the house committee on
~ s~mpeachmment and removal had pre-
pared a list of score of witnesses to
be subpoenaed to testify before the
committee relative to matters in which
the auditor and state printer are not
involved. The senate was notified
that the impeachment proceedings
had been started.
The members of the committee re-
fused to give out any information
either as to the witnesses desired or
to what the new line of inquiry turns.
1t is understood, however, that Demo
cratic National Committeeman Robert
Galbreaith is among those to be sub
poenaed, and that the oil and gas
leases by the school land department,
as well as sand and gravel matters,
and probably the expenditure OF the
$4,000 appropriated by the last legis-
lature for the defense of election Off
cials, as to be probed.
The other developments Monday in
cluded the reply of Governor Cruce
as to the attorneys receiving portions
Of the $4,000 appropriated by the last
legislature for the defense of election
officers; the passage of house reso-
luton by Chase of Nowata to "hogtie
the school land department" in the
matter of oil and gas leases until the
legislature can act, and the formal
submission of thirteen interrogatories
to Attorney General West as to his
official expenditures and policies in
office since statehood.
