GOVERNORS HOUSE
IS A LONG WAY OFF
And Yet Wilson Hesitates
About Accepting Job
at Normal.

nKLAHOMA CITY, April 15.-Al-
" though the matter had been mem
toned to him by two members of the
state board of education, State Su-
perintendent II. II. Wilson today
would not deny or affirm he would ac,
cept the presidency of the central
state normal at Edmond. President
Charles Evans, who has been at the
head of the school for the past four
Years, resigned recently to accept the
presidency of Kendall college at
Tulsa. superintendent Wilson has
served little more than a year on his
second term as state superintendent.
It was his ambition at one time to be
governor of Oklahoma. and 1t has
been intimated that he might become
a candidate at the end of his present
term. Members Of the board OF edu-
cuyon here few days ago talked over
the matter of his becoming head or
the Edmond normal. but he gave them
no definite answer at that time. the
board meets on April 26 and 27. at
which time they will consider election
of a president for the school. 1t Is
possible that Wilson will have made
up his mind one way or the other by
that time.

Magnificent Structure,
Handsomely Appointed,
Now Ready.
IS A CARNEGIE GIFT
Miss Alma McGlenn Will
BE Librarian. With One
Assistant.

TULSA'S new $4,000 Carnegie IL
i brary Is now ready for occupancy
and probably will be opened the first
of next week. Furniture and equip
ment arrived last week and has been
properly installed leaving only the
moving of books from the old quart
crs before the doors are thrown open.
No definite action has been taken
on the opening date. but 1t Is hardly
probable that the institution VIII be
given to the public this week. A
meeting of the library board Will be
held soon to decide this matter as
well rs the program to be followed at
that time.
The library building was built at a
cost of $1,000, which was donated
by Andrew Carnegie. The city bought
the site and agreed to maintain the
institution. The furniture also was
purchased out of local library FUNDS
The building Is situated at the IN
tersection of Third and Cheyenne
streets. facing on Cheyenne with an
impressive entrance. The building
is of white stone.
Will BE Social Center
The structure is designed not ohly
for "A library, but as an intellectuai
center In addition to every depart
ment of the modern library there are
spacious quarters for art gallery, club
rooms. assembly hall and museum.
Upon entering through the wide
front way there is main stairway
which leads into the lobby and two
flights at the sides by which the sub
story can he reached.
Directly before the door Is the
main desk where books are received
and distributed. This desk Is one OF
the most complete articles in the
equipment. having been donated by
Mrs. Van Dyke Basten of Kearney.
Neb.. in memory of her mother, Mrs.
j. u. Seaman. who first agitated the
question OF "a library in 1904. The
desk has built into it card files, book
slip drawers, and every sort of case
need by the librarian.
Can Double Capacity.
Behind this are the general bo0k
racks. contributing largely to the
capacity of the :brary, which Is
fifty thousand volumes. The racks
are made of steel. giving maximum

that racks can be put on top or the

Guardsmen Must Also Take
Oath to Obey President,
Senate Provides.
ARE ARMY MEASURES
Amendment Introduced to
Provide Schools to Train
Reserve Officers.

WAsIiINGToN, April 1.-two
w more provisions designed 20
strengthen the federal status of the
national guard were put into the SEN
ate army bill today. In the course of a
debate enlivened by charges that fed
eral funds provided the national
guard in past years had been thrown
away foolishly and in some cases en-
bezzled, the senate adopted amend
ments providing that all officers Of
the guard above the rank of captain
be paid $500 year by the federal
government and that all guardsmen
on enlistment be required to take an
oath to obey orders from the pres-
dent as well as the governor of their
respective states.
The attack on guard officers for
their use of federal funds was made
by Senator BOrah in a speech oppos-
ing the Reed amendment for federal
protection. The Idaho senator de-
clared the $S.000.000 available an
nually for use Of the guard under the
Dick militia law had been shame
fully" utilized by officers to the ex-
clusion of enlisted men and that
some of it had been lem mbezzled."
Senators Reed. Pomerene and others
defended the guardsmen and the fed
eral pay amendment was adopted,
Al to IA.
Cites Report.
To support his charge, Senator
Borah cited the annual report of the
war department ON the expenditure of
the militia fund. Among the cases he
cited were:
Camp OF instruction, Alabama.
1912:
Troops in attendance never in ex-
cess Of one regiment: duration twenty
days. Amount paid to the members
Of the staff department of its state
who were not members of the regi-
ments participating. $2.S22.12.

never were at any time in excess of
two hundred. Total payments to Of
ficers staff department s1,999.45.
Duration Of encampment twenty days.
Total funds disbursed in maintenance
during the latter. including pay of
rifle team in 1911. was $12,669.28,
of which s9.SS1.2S was paid to Off

County Central Committees
Will Be Apprised of
Action Taken.

Special to The World.
NKLAHOMA CITY. April 15.-For
~ the purpose of discussing plans
for the registration Of voters. Arthur
II. Geissler, chairman of the state
Republican committee. has called a
meeting of the committee to be held
at the Skirvin hotel on Saturday,
April 90. at 1880 o'clock. The state
chairman especially urges that every
mem. Der of the committee be present,
and in addition 20 the members Of the
state committee. chairman of county
central committees and every Repub-
lican who desires Is invited to attend
the meeting. 1t is very probable that
at the meeting of the state committee
arrangements will be made for hold,
ing meetings Of. the county central
committees of each county during the
following week.
1t Is considered Of the utmost i'm
portance for committeeman and all
party workers to see that every Re-
publican eligible to vote should be
registered. and the only way to do
this is for the voter to present him
self to the registrar and see that his
name is properly placed on the rolls.
According to the registration law.
anyone who voted at the election of
1914 is entitled to register. or would
be automatically registered. but the
Republicans are going to take no
chances this time and will leave
nothing to be taken for granted. es-
pecially from the opposing party and
the ono that will lave all the election
machinery.
Discuss Proposition.
The entire registration proposition
will be- discussed at the meeting of
the state committee. There are other
important matters to be considered.
but the registration Is the principal
feature.
Whatever Is dcne at the meeting
will probably be handed down to the
county central committees as sug-
gestive matter to be employed

country precincts so that good citizens
may not be disfranchsed without

there would be no Easter or spring

The nonconformance to the custom
was occasioned partly because Ken
