to II. The next bill on the calendar
wss one seeking TO abolish the Will
burton school of mines; Holloway
moved to Indefinitely postpone this,
but Senator Wallace went ON a fill
buster and spoke until the senate was
ready to adjourn. which il did with
out voting on the motion. SO the
school fight is to be continued. The
abolitionists have suffered one defeat.
Senator Wallace's bill to abolish
lthe budget system was killed yester-
day. The committee reported do not
pass" and Wallace's attempt to have
IL placed on the calendar anyway
failed. His resolution TO prevent the
moving of the girls Industrial school

penal institutions.
The house yesterday adopted q
resolution by Leslie Salter of Alfalfa
county calling for special commit.

use on state business of they remained
in session all summer. He asserted the
investigating committee couldn't get
by with the testimony offered against
Trapp before q justice of the. peace,
and alluded TO hearsay evidence.
This is about the biggest farce that
has been brought before u.s." he con-
cluded.
Charles Brice of Pittsburg county
also objected to the testimony and TO
the uncomplimentary terms used by
Rogers. If Trapp had enabled the
counties in question to build improve
ments when bonds were so hard to
sell, he deserved praise instead Of i'm
peachment, Brce said.
w. Il. Disney of Muskogee called
attention to the fact there was moth
ing of Trapps side OF the case in the
record presented by the committee and
suggested the possibility that that
side Of the case was not wanted. He
inquired why county officials connect
ed with the bonds deals had not
been prosecuted if the transactions
were so rotten. He also wondered how
Trapp could be called to answer as
lieutenant governor for his acts as a
bond dealer.
Horace Simpson of Greer county
discussed the duty of a grand jury,
and questioned the testimony offered.
This concluded the defense. Porter
Newman then made the closing ar
gument for the prosecution. Several
Republicans applauded when he arose
to speak. He said the argument Of
the defense reminded him of Grim
inal lawyer who had lost his case
and was appealing TO the jury on Il
reasonable doubt" theory. He inss-
ted it was perjury for Trapp to make
affidavit that Seminole county was
indebted to him, on which affidavit
Judgment was given him. He de-
ciaret tlhe case against Trapp in
cluded perjury, conspiracy and EN-
beZzlement. He said the investigating
and the examination by
the examiner and inspector had made
Trapp cough up" a sum of money
that was still due Seminole county
for bonds. He ended by telling the
members they could vote as they
pleased, he was going to vote as ne
pleased. At the request of Stovall, he
read the additional testimony given the
previous day by Judge Bolen.
The voting began Immediately. The
roll was called on each article and
on the question Of ordering i'm
peachment proceedings.

MAYOR TRIES TO MAKE US THE GOAT

Mayor Freeman in his ward speeches is ydacking> The
rdmorelte on the charge that he geanyhg pub
lshed in this paper
Every reader will remember that when we announced
that both sets of amendments would be published that
stated letter of explanation would be printed from Mayor
Freeman.
That article not written until Mayor Freeman had
been asked to furnish the letter and he had promised
do
He not only asked to write the letter but called
again and urged him to send it.
He did not write it.
His reason simply this:
He thought that by playing the people against this paper
he would by prejudice influence votes than he would
by stating his for his amendments the space offered
him.
He is not resorng to in his speeches before the
people. He making every effort to hoodwink them. He
tries to make big bugbear of his enemies in effort to
excite the sympathy of the voters and to lead them into his
camp.
In his Fourth Ward speech he is quoted having said
this city had issued bonds in the of $745 since 1916
We ask you what have you received for this Of
money and ask you if it it not time to makeNa change?
