BUSY ON REAL ESTATE PRoPO
SlTION. WARDEN ILL.

McAlester, Okla, Jan. 16.-While
Warden Dick is sick in bed and un
able to attend the hearings, the sen
atorial committee appointed to inves-
tigate charges as to mismanager:ent
of the state penitentiary plunged INTO

to hold these sessions daily until the

Today's hearing was devoted 20 the
charge that an addition to McAlester,
across the street from the peniten-
tiary was plated, that convict labor
was used in grading down a high hlli
and leveling the streets of the audl'
ton, and that houses were noved
there from off the penitentiary farm
and elsewhere and set up, prison la
Dor and teams being used :or the
work, and that some state materials
were used in building flues and IN
placing a retaining wall around hal'
a block.
1t was testified by E. c. Million, A.
U. Thomas and J. r. Lebosqlet, all of
McAlester, that in partnership with
Mr.. Dick, they bought forty acres OF
ground and plated an addition. 1t
was testified that in the sDrnS o!
1911, Mr.. Dick sold his interest TO L.
e. Seamans and that Mr. Seamans la
ter acquired the interest of Mr.. Le-
basquet. Of the 90 lots comprising
the addition, half have been sold to in
dividuals, chiefly employees at the
penitentiary, and the other half have
been sold to a real estate ex>h~nSe
of which Mr.. Dicks son-in-law, II. l..
Berry, is secretary and owner of 20
per cent of the stock.
Mr.. Million testified that the i'm
proved part of the addition is now
owned by himself, A. U. Thomas and
II. C. Perkins, although contracts for
deeds to most of it are standing, the
property being sold on monthly in
stallments. There is a forfeiture
clause in TIE contracts but none have
been forfeited.

DEMOCRATIC CLOUD

BRYAN BACKS FIGHT.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE first real
clouds are beginning to lower in the
victorious democratic party, and the
one which threatens most of the har-
mony of its program in the new con-
gress takes the form of an attack
upon the seniority plan that gives
this congressman or that senator lead
ers1ip oy reason of long committee
service. 1t is said that William j
Bryan is back of the attempted fight
on seniority rule.
At first this assault upon the once
sacred congressional institution vas

will be seriously endangered.
The truth is, the seniority rule is
