Oklahoma's tJovernor Under Number
of Charges.
Gross neglect of duly and corrup
tion in oflice are charged against Gov
ernor J. B. A. Robertson, of Oklaho
ma, in the report of an Investigating
committee submitted to the legisla
ture Wednesday at Oklahoma City.
Impeachment proceedings are recommended.
y The report charges the governor
MX also with "unwarranted use of his ex
Ajecutive power" In regard to reprieves,
JV pardons and paroles, declaring the
x1 present administration has extended
clemency to 1.900 persons. The
charge also is made In the report that
the governor evaded payment of his
state Income tax.
The report further charges there
were "rumors of evidence that the
governor's method of clemency re-
I suited in the efforts on the part of
certain attorneys to receive good fees
'in pressing rases for clemency."
