The statement of McConnell was
In reference to the statement!
Governor Allen calling upon Ameri-
can legion members to uproot non-
partisan leadership from Kansas
taunted Smoot with a wool schedule FIGHT IS ON, TO KILL
higher than the rchedule K of the
notorious Psyne-Aldrich act, which
had split the republican party. He
read from a republican pamphlet
written for the G. O. P spellbinders
by Clarence Miller, of Minnesota, on
the high cost of living, dealing with
the fact that the sugar profiteers
gouged the American people for
fltOftO.OOOtOOO—"or more than enough
money to pay the soldiers' bonus."
and then asked Smoot whether this
wdre not designed to trick the sol-
diers into believing that the repub-
licans would give them a bonus,
when In fact the republlcana were
going to raise the cost of living once
more.
Calls for Order.
By this time the economic chop-
suey had deeply Impressed the
galleries, so that Vice-President
Marshall had to remind them that
no matter how much they felt like
"demonatratlona of approval or dis-
approval," they muat keep their
fscas straight and their hands still.
A few steps away, the marble
baths of the senate were being put
into final conditions for the grand
re-opening which has been decreed
for the date of the opening of the
next session. With the Pompelan and
Roman baths in full blast, It Is pos-
sible that the tariff problem and the
rea to ration of trade with the world,
regardless of the ability of the
world to pay and produce, will be
settled quickly. To this end Sena-
tor King, of Utah, is vigorously
pushing his meaaure forbidding
trade with or recognition of Russia.
CONCENTRATION FAVORED
IN STATE INSTITUTIONS
Cut and slaah will be the order of
th« day among the treasury watch
dogs ot the senate and houso when
the governor's appropriation bill
comes to bat.
The Robertson budget originally
called for 27,000,000 but It Is
claimed it will be pruned down $10,
000,000 at least
"We can save *60.000 a year for
education by dolni; away with
duplicating state colleges and con-
centrating In the Oklahoma I'nlver
slty at Norman," said one senator,
"We can save as large a sum by
making Clinton the one tubercular
BJinltorlum of the state and sendln;;
all slate tubercular patients there
for treatment. My county of Musko-
gee has been one of those favored,
but I have made It plain that I for
one will not vote for the approprl.
tion to continue the Institution
there.
"The best thing we can do Is to
close all but two of the district
normals, and agricultural colleges
and make our university at Norman
what It ought to be and give the
Stillwater college a chance."
INDUSTRIAL COURT BILL
Now thst the industrial court law
Is introduced the big fight is on for
position by the open shoppers and
the labor forces. The chamber of
commerce crowd is jockeying to get
the I^eedy bill Into one of the sen-
ate judiciary committees whereas
Pete < oyne, senate chairman of
commerce and labor, is determined
that the bill go to the committee on
commerce and labor of which he is
the chairman. There is a strong
sentiment among democratic s< na
tors for this course and the predic-
tion was made Tuesday that the bill
would die in that committee.
The fight will come when the bill
comes up for Ita second reading.
TO HALT SECRET STUFF
"It pays to advertise," will no
longer be the slogan of secret socie-
ties at the University of Oklahoma,
If a bill introduced in the state house
of representatives by Jeff L Pullen
from Murray county, student at O. U.,
goes through.
The bill provides a fine of $100 for
a member of any secret s->ciety in
state schools to paint or mark Greek
letters or other advertising on tht
walls or walks of any building be-
longing to the state.
JERKINS TO INTRODUCE
NEW ELECTION STATUTE
Captain John T. Jerkins, former
policeman of Oklahoma City, elected
to the legislature as a democrat,
will introduce a bill to repeal the
primary election law as soon aa he
can get it drafted.
"I want a bill which will allow
the parties to aelect their candi-
dates In the way which suits them
best,' said Jerkins. "Personally I
favor the Texas law, which says that
a candidate must pay for a primary
election, tf he wants one."
CENSUS PLAN CHANGED
The school board meeting which
was to have been held Monday night
was postponed until some time the
last of this week, because some of
the board members could not be
present.
Instead of appointing several men
to take the census in the school dls
trlct as we first anticipated, we
have decided to let the teachers
check up on the number of children
of school age living in this district.'
J. G. Stearley, secretary of the board
nnnounced Tuesday morning.
MAYOR TALKS DOPE CURE
The need for a state hospital to
care for narcotic victims was again
emphasized Monday by Mayor J. C.
Walton.
"There Is nothing the city or
state can lo for dope addicts," the
mayor said. "In the absence of a
proper hospital for their care, the
courts throw them in jail or fine
them. Jail is no place for these
people who are as much victims of
a curable disease, as are victims of
tuberculosis."
CHARGES FALSE ARREST
Suit for $25.2<>0 for malicious
prosecution han been filed in the
district court by Glen G. McCarty
against J. M. Condit.

defendant caused the plaintiff to be
arrested, charging the plaintiff with |
