SAYS OKLAHOMANS
 ARE NOT ALL BAD

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 would like very much to write a few lines in reply to MT. B. F. Earn hart's letter, where he says Oklahoma IS goddess country. Now, MT. Earnhart would have you believe Ok lahoma is a backwoods place. I read fly admit, there are some tough peo- pie in Oklahoma, but not all of them. He wants to get into country where people are God-fearing. Let him come to Marshall county, Okla, where he will find as nice country churches as can be found in Arkansas or any other state west of the Mississippi, and good schools and Sunday schools. While I don't live exactly in the country, but in village of 1000 people, yet my work requires me to go to the coun- try quite often, and l find fine people, who have good churches and schools and are law-abiding citizens As for society, that is here also, good and bad; a man can choose for himself.
 So, Mr. Earnhart, come to Gods country and look the bright-eyed boys in the faces and you will decide you have covered too much territory. and admit that you had reference to Hazel Okla, instead of Oklahoma as a whole. Come to see me and we will go to church and Sunday school and

Prof J. P. Akridge of this county superintendent of the Houston public schools for several years past, anG Prof. T. F. Forrest, former county ex- aminer of this county and now super intendent of the Clarendon schools will also be applicants.
 Practically all the jurisdiction over public school matters heretofore lodg- ed with the county court will be trans ferred to the county board of educa- tion. Its duties include the appor- tionment of the school funds, the for mation of local districts, the changing of district boundary lines, the trans fer of children from one district to another and the dissolution of dis tricts on petition.
 Until more complete returns are re- ceived from the election of May F County Clerk John Reeves will be un- able to certify the successful candi- dates for membership on the board. Twenty-one of the 98 districts had still failed to file returns today, and the vote of these missing districts might easily change the result. As it stands today the first four names on the ballot received the highest votes and seem assured of election. They are Dr. T. c. Watson of Mt. Vernon, w. M Harper of Enola, J. c. Clark of Conway and Joe Troutman of May flower, route ?. For the fifth place J. H. Hall of Hamlet has a small lead over John Mitchell of Mayfower, and it will probably require complete re- turns to determine which of these two is elected.
 The clerk is required to certify the names of those elected not later than June 5, and is very anxious to have complete returns so that the vote of all districts may be included when the official canvass is made. The districts from which no returns have yet been received are Numbers 4, II, IS, P, 26, 32, 35, 40, A, AS, 52, 54, 56, 68, 69, Fl, 76, S7, 9s, 101 and 113.

Wendell Fails
To Appear at
Bond Inquiry
Court Refuses to Allow Pros.
ecutOr to Record Tran
scripts of Alleged Private
Accounts With Brokers
Hearing to Close To-day
Deputy Comptroller Made
Money in Autos, Realty,
Chemicals, Says Lawyer

First Deputy Comptroller James A.
wendell failed to appear yesterday
when the John Doe investigation of
bond purchases made by the Comp
troller's Office for state sinking fund
purchases was resumed. Justice Ker-
nochan refused to permit Assistant
District Attorney Pecora, who is con-
ducting the inquiry, to read into the
record transcripts of private accounts
which the deputy is said to be carry
ing with various New York brokerage
houses.
Evidence in the form Of brokerage
accounts, which is now in the posses
sion Of Mr.. Pecora, is said to show
that since 1915 Mr.. Wendell has been a
heavy investor in Wall Street, having
carried extensive marginal accounts
with the firm of Clark, Childs e. CO.
When Mr.. Pecora attempted yester-
day to introduce transcripts Of the
Deputy Comptrollcr's accounts with
various houses, Colonel William Hay
ward, Wendell's counsel raised strenu-
Gus objection. He declared that it had
been agreed that the private financial
affairs of his client we're to b. in
spected privately by the District At
torney and that he had made repeated
attempts to get in touch with Mr. Pc
cora for this purpose without avail
Colonel Hayward said that Mr. Wen
dePs candidacy for the office of State
Comptroller would suffer if it were
shown in court that he had operated
extensively in Wall Street and that his
income as Deputy Comptroller was
only $4,000 a year. The lawyer added
that his client should be given an op-
portunity to show that he has other
sources of income beside his salary
from the state.
that Mr.. Wendell has been the head of
large automobile agency in Albany
and also has been associated with a
chemical enterprise and publishing
house in that city which have paid him
large returns. The Deputy Comptroller
also has invested wisely in Albany real
estate with money he inherited from
his father, according to the colonel
Colonel Hayward, in objecting to the
disclosure Of his clients financial af-
fairs, said that the investigation of
bond purchases for the state sinking
funds was placed in the hands Of the
District Attorney last June, and init
mated that he thought it peculiar that
no action had been taken until just be-
fore election.
Justice Kcrnochan reemed to think
that the introduction Of the private &C
counts Of Mr.. Wendell were not abso-
lutely necessary and suggested that if,
after perusal of the minutes already
taken in the Investigations it seemed
necessary to have them read into the
record this could be done at a later
date.
On this basis the inquiry was closed
except for session which will be held
this morning, at which witnesses who
desire to explain or amplify their tes-
timony will be heard.

Mother Died; Others Have Not Been Found

Three girls and two boys stole away
from the orphanage of st. Pastors
Home, II West 129th Street. in the
black and rainy hours that preceded
the dawn yesterday, risking their necks
because they wanted to stay in New
York instead Of going to the main home
of the institution in Peekskill. Two of
them, soaked and bedraggled, but hope
full of their reprievc. turned up at
their former home. The others still
are missing.
Adelina Amendalc, twelve years old,
and her brother, Joseph, ten, are the
two who went home. Their father,
John, whose wife died recently, was
awakened by their knocking long be-
fore his usual time for arising. The
children had walked from the orphan
age to his home at 1888 Lincoln Avenue,
the Bronx, a distance of about a mile.
Their hopes were dashed when their
father told them they would have to
go back to the Missionary Sisters, Third
Order Of ST Francis, who conduct the
home. They said they didn't want to
leave the home where they had lived
with their mother and even if they
had to do that, they wanted to stay in
New York. Their companions in the
forlorn hope, they said, had been helped
