WILL TRY MAN FOR
MURDER OF NIECE
Preliminary Hearing of Gus Jones at
Seminole is Set for
June 3.


Special to The World.
OKLAHOMA CITY, May 30.-Pre-
limnary hearing of Gus Jones, being
held in connection with the death of
sadie Jones. his niece. and whose
body was found in creek short dis
,nucc from her home. will be held June
3. Jones has refused to discuss tie
case on advice Of his attorney, hut
the latter has been searching for evi-
douce since the case was placed in his
hands. Sadie Jones disappeared from
her home on the night of May IL
Nearly two weeks later her body was
found in the creek. a bullet hole in
one side of htr head showed how she
had met death. Then rumors began
To spread and a few hours later Gus
Jones, uncle of the girl. was taken
into custody. Then II developed thar
at the coroner's hearing that advice
had been sought previously from sew
eral doctors in the community con
corning the condition of girl. The
doctors said. however they had re
fused to have anything to do with the
case. 1t was afterwards discovered
that the girl had been taken TO Shaw
nee. and after an operation had been
bungled IL was said she was taken
away and efforts made to make II
appear she had committed suicide.
These and other stories followed the
finding of the body. and the commun-
ity in which the pretty Maud school
girl had lived has been stirred ever
since with gossip. 1t has been inti-
mated that Jones might waive pre-
liminary hearing. which would pre-
vent the story being told until the
district court takes action in the case.

TRUE iNWARDNESS OF THE
VERA CRUZ INCIDENT.

In the Spring of 1914, occur
red the capture Of Vera Cruz.
Men from one of our ships had
been arrested at Tampico and
mad been discharged with an
apology. But our Admiral de-
fused. Thereupon the President
went to Congress. asking au-
thority to use the armed forces
of the United States. Without
waiting for the passage of the
resolution, Vera Cruz was seiz-
ed. 1t appeared that a shipload
of ammunition for Huerta was
about to enter that port. There
was a natural opposition to this
invasion and a battle occurred
in which nineteen Americans
and over a hundred Mexicans
were killed. This. OF course.
was war. Our dead soldiers
were praised for dyirg like
heroes in war of service.
Later. we retired from Vera
Cruz. giving up this noble war
fare. We had not obtained the
salute which was demanded.
We had not obtained repara-
ton for affronts. The ship with
ammunition which could not
land at Vera Cruz had soon
landed at another port. and its
cargo was delivered to Huerta
without interference. Recently
the naked truth was admitted
by a Cabinet officer. We are
now informed that I'VE did not
go to Vera Cruz to force Huerta
TO salute the hae." We are
told that we went there ito
show Mexico that we we're in
earnest in our demand that
Huerta must CO." That is. we
seized Vera Cruz to depose
Huerta. The question of the
salute was a mere pretext-

Hughes Points the Way

The speech of the Republican can
didate for President was a keynote
speech, indeed. Not one person In
the great audience at the Carnegie
Hall meeting was in doubt for one
moment as to just what he meant by
everything he said.
His address was comprehensive, log
ical, clear and all sufficient for the
occasion. There can be no dispute
as to this. Plainly Mr.. Hughes il =
man who knows what he wants when
he wants it," and it is the opinion
OF political authorities who heard him
and who have since read his remarks
that he knows, also, how to get it.
It was incumbent upon the Repub
hcan candidate to confine the scope
of his remarks to the limitations Of
the occasion, but his crushing analy-
sis Of the shortcomings of the pres
ent administration of the government
is merely an earnest of what the tone
and the contents of his speeches will
be when he gets on the stump.
At Carnegie Hall Mr.. Hughes ad-
verted to every general question that
is apt to be . serious issue in the
campaign and in language that will
be absolutely clear to every man or
woman able to read he stated his
opinions. his convictions and his pur-
poses. On the stump he will argue
those points in detail. AS an orator
he is eloquent, his personality attrac-
tive and his marshalling of facts so
cohesive that he holds his audience
to the end. He makes it easy for
them to follow him and his points
are not lost.
There was nothing equivocal moth
ing apo!ogetic in the Republican can
didate's speech of acceptance. He
called a spade spade. and the unani-
nous opinion of those who heard him
was that he shot to the center and
rang the bell. The Rep lblican cam
paign is now open. and those who
will speak and write and work for
the success Of the Republican ticket
can wish for no more adequate cam
paign document. no more satisfactory
statement OF issues than are found In
the candidates salutatory.

J. W. Miller.-Every young man
should remember that if his income is
just little above expenses every day
he will eventually become well off. On
the other hand if his receipts daily
lures, he will in time become candi-

Honest work at any calling and such

J. E. Payne.-I have recently visited
several farmers in Oklahoma who have
good alfalfa land. These men have
planted from thirty to 100 acres to ell
falfa. They now find that it does not
pay to grow alfalfa for hay for the
market at the present prices. So they
must feed their hay to stock. They
have also learned that alfalfa harvest
ing interferes with the proper care of
their crops as it comes at the busiest
time of the season. They have con-
cluded the general farmer who has
more than fifteen acres of alfalfa on
100 acre farm has too much alfalfa.
AS this amount can be cut and put up
in few days and it will produce all
the hay needed on an ordinary ranch.
II can be handled profitably while n
larger acreage will burden the grower
and cause loss.
