Thi Indictment of Lieutenant Gov
ernor M. K. Trnpp by tho Iioubo of
representatives was not tin tinex

ocatlcn ns much discussion us had
bot.i expected. Kvcn that was not a

on whloh Indictments wero returned,
three democrats voted for tho first
f in of them Pulton of Davis,
K IK of rrBdertnck nnd Porter Now

Intnbers of tho Investigating com

voto taken on tho voto to Indict
tho sefond officer of tlio state. On
the ninth clmrco King ftnd Pollen
remained on tho democratic side.
Newman alono voting with tho ma
jority. Warmest Sixli by Democrat.
Notwithstanding tlio chargo of
partisanship mado by tlio adminis
tration leaders, tho strongest speerh
Kaln?t Lieutenant Oovornor TrnpV
on tho floor of tho house was made
by ?'.vman of Durant, who not only
urscd Indictment on tho evidence
submitted by tho committee, but do
chrcd that tlio policy of public, offi
cial) evading tho law Is sufficient
to warrant removal from office. In
fact, Nowmnn tfnd Disney of Mimko.
ceo wero tho only two of tho speak-
rt who elnsolv followed tlio rlinrirnn
filed against tho official, Disney
peaking against tho indictment.
Tho houso conducted tho Initial
Indictment enso with good order.
Chairman R. It, Matthews of tho In
vcntiKntlng coinmlttcc led with a de
tailed account of tho evidences liefnrw
the houso nnd ho wan follovod by
RemlnKton Uogers nf Tulsa, who
charged that tho evidence BUbtnttted
warranted tho statemunt that con
uplrary, attempt to defraud and per
jury had boon committed by tho nc
rused officer and that It won a sol
emu although unpleasant duty for
tho houso to tcturn tho Indictment.
Dofcnso speakers wcro Dabnev of
Alius, minority lender: Porry Miller
of Muskogee, Davo Stovall of Hugo,
Pratt of Hoff, Whlttaker of Kufaula.
Hrlco of MeAIcstcr, Simpson of Man
gum and Disney of Muskogee. Alt
of tho democrats who poko against
Indictment declared that tho ovl
deneo submitted was Insufficient and
that It was only a result of bitter
partls.inlsm, even though somo mem
bers of tho domocratlo party wero
In on tho game ns bolng played,
Tho 55 votes returned on tho first
seven charges wero snro of tho in
dictment being returned, and that
voto was never lower than 52 on
any ono taken on tho nine different
charges. On tho flnnl roll rail to
Indict, Pullen voted with his fellow
dtmocrats, King nnd Porter Nowmnn
remaining on tlio other side.
Scnnto in Quarrel.
Tho senate has also been having
Us difficulties. Tho combination of
Hill, Manser nnd rtutherford met
with Initial defeat in their effort
lo abolish somo of tho socondary
state institutions. Tho test voto
came on tho agricultural school nt
Warner and nn uftijrnoon was spent
In discussing tho Ideas of abandoning
sown of tho stato institutions.
Glasser, Garfield county repub
lican, ono of tho authors of tho bill
and among tho ablest men In cither
houao of tho leglnlatucr in dlscus
lon, was not porrtilttcd to speak, on
tho question- In fact, President
Trapp was looking elsewhere and the
discussion wns ninnng democrats ex
c ""Ivoly. In this tho srhoot com
matlon did not far., well, for Mor
. ! uVtl,?f0,, wnM somewhat In
clsivo in his remaiks about iisoIcsh
tistltutlotis adding to the expendi
tures nnd rendering no service any
thing like In accordance with tho
moneys expended to conduct them.
Tho test vote canio on n motion to
Indefinitely postpone tho bill abol
ishing tho Connors (Warner) school
of agriculture, the lead being tnlien
by ltollnwny of Hugo nnd Nichols
of Kufaula.
The record gavo the abolitionists
a mnjorltv of tun votes, but Cart
wright, W. II. Woods, Cordejl nnd
ltensley, who had voted ngalnst In
definite postponement, changed their
votes from "no" to "aye" and the
bill went over Into tho discard with
a dull thud,
, A further effort by llnlloway to
bring the other abolition meawures to
death nt that particular session wan
thwarted after Hob Wallace started
on n filibustering speech about tho
world In general and Oklahoma ex
travagance In particular, stopping
only when n motion to ndjourn wns
put nnd declared carried.
Approaching n Crlslo.
Tho fact that when an adminis
tration' blow is given by a senate
votu that somo ono or tnoro otdlgtng
senntors nlways change over to do as
tho administration wishes, Is grow
ing milro npparent. With tho gov
ernrtr back nnd Trapp ngaln In tho
actual leadership of the Semite,
there Is no way to mnko nn error on
tho procedure, nnd Trnpp is nngry
with the houso nnd Is now driving
without allowing stoppago for water
or rest.
AVIll Wo lox?
The houso has finally passed the
boxing bill introduced by Kit Ad
mlro early in tho session. It Is broad
In its provisions nnd mef with verv
spirited opposition In the house, al
though the younger members gavo
It snupport. Republican Floor Lead
er Harp of Pnlrvlow, a minister,
stood with tho younger members in
securing passage of tho net. It also
means thaf n series of blue law
measures which have been Intro
duced In tho house aro bolng made
ready for an early fflnornl, in which
they will rfdo In the legislative
hoarse.
Change Auto Tnx Law.
Houso bill 378 has been passed
nnd Is nmong the constructive meas
ures offered by the lower branch of
tho legislature. In brief, it noes
away with tho payment of nutomo
blle license tnx to tho state highway
department, provides for tho pay
ment to tho various county clerks
und they Issuo tho licenses, the
clerks to turn over tho inonoy to
tho county treasurers. Ab original'?
Introduced, tho bill provides that tho
tnx should be pnld In to the treas
urer, tho amendment being sub
mitted on tho theory that payment
to tho clerk nnd his trnnsfor to tho
treasurer would provide, a. doublo
check on such payments.

Some New Ones.
For tho past fow days several bills,
mostly local and somo few amendn
tory, havo nppcared In tho two
houcss, but the solons nro actually
weary and tho bouso appropriations
commltteo has yet to innko its re

commltteo is still busy, although It
has b n rredlcted that It will bo i
through ill tho closo of tho cnlendnr
week, but that Is probnbly a couple '
of days sooner than It can finish
Its work. While thesu two great

cry plainly tho senate Is not
waiting so much for measures ns for
Indictments nnd tho ndnitnlstrntioti
puckering string Is being tightened
each legislative day, No one nt
tempts to misunderstand that failure
on tho part of the governor to ro.
movo Henry Wood, state highway
commissioner, nnd such underlings
as mentioned, means ihnt there will
be an effort to Indict the governor
nnd then wo shall have pandemon

J. T. Thompson, chief clerk of tho
highway department, has tendered
his resignation, and other resigna

In addition, one other state de

recelvo n scathing denunciation from
the Investigating committee. It is
whispered that this In due to subor

and Improper conduct.
It has been the belief of the sena
