UPHOLDING THE AMERICAN HEN.
Tbere can be no doubt that the hen
deeervae all the fame she has received,
aad All tbe food newspaper apace that
la allotted her. Whatever concert)*
the American hen concern* the great
American public. The other day the
United State* court of custom* ap
Paala. a eort of glorified legal leal
coo. decided that "bird" waa not a
definition for "ben." In abort that a
baa la not a bird, *ays the Cleveland
Plata Dealer. The ben haa f em her*
It fllea, tt sings. but It muatn't be
claaalfled with canarlea, wren*. *par
rows and tomtita. Of courae, thl* de
eldon vaan't drawn out by any chance
aeeker for knowledge. It waa the re-
ault of an Important official appeal
Eggs Imported from China—which dif
fer materially from china egg* ar
usually broken out of tba ahell and
froien. The cuatoma official* declared
that theae egg* entered Into competi-
tion with tho*e of the American hen.
and aaaessed a duty on them of Hv<
centa a doxen. The Importera Insisted
that the egg* were entitled to admls
alon free as blrda' eggs, In accordance
with a certain section of the tariff.
They also contended that the egg? .
were albumen and only dutiable ur J
such. Hut when the queatlon reached
the fire Judges of the court of appeal*
they nobly took the aide of the Atrcrl
can ben, declaring that the oriental
product waa a competitor, that hens'
« gg* are not birda' eggs, and that the
duty levied by the customs officer*
should stand.

ploit, Involving a pitched battle with
two alleged anarchist criminals, sub-
jected the "force" to a great deal of
mora or leaa cauatlc criticism. And

Governor Cruce won another big
rlctory when the houie of repreaenta-
tivea paaaed finally the state board of
education bill. The bill a* it pa**ed
the senate, waa entirely rewritten In
the house by senator* and representa-
tives introducing such bills, and con-
forms exactly to Governor Cruce's or-
iginal suggestions.
The authors of the b II are Senators
Wynne, Coffey and Wllliama and Rep-
resentatlt es Barrett. Akin, Ix>gan.
Speaker Durant, Davison, Clark tof

A state board of education is cre-
ated, to be composed of the slate
superintendent of instruction, who
Miall be president of the board, and
six members to be appointed by the
governor.
A secretary for the board at $2,000
; per year is provided. The emoluments

| beard Is ft> per day and necessary ex-
penses.
i Wright of Oklahoma, won an amend-
I ment to make the secretary of the
board appointive by the board, instead
I of by the state superintendent alone.
As nearly as possible Wider the
constitution, this state board of educa-
tion will control the educational insti-
tutions of the state. The agricultural
group alone is excepted, since the
state board of agriculture is regent by
virtue of constitutional power.
The senate adopted the conference
report Friday.

ing the state superintendent and eix
others to be appointed by the gover-
nor, two of whom shall be experienced

day and $3 for hotel bills, no limit is
placed on the number of days during
the year for which they can draw pay.
They are to replace the text book com-
mission and the regents of all the state
schools except the agricultural school,
Including also such chsrltatle and
eleemosynary institutions as the
schools for the deaf, blind, orphans and
feeble-minded and the boys' training
fcchool.

School for Blind
The house of representatives consid-
ered without results the question of
permanently locating the state school
for the blind Friday morning. The
feature was the speech of Marshall of
Cimarron, the blind repreaentatlve, in
favor of locating the school in Okla-
homa City.
Though there are a *core of bills
all locating the school in as many
towns, the Peters bill proposing Fair-
fax waa made an issue. Peters him-
self withdrew Fairfax as a candidate,
aaying that the governor had plainly
Intimated he would have the school
centrally located in some large town
of ample facilities.
Vinita Asylum Gets Appropriation
A strong speech by Edwards ha-
much to do with the favorable house
action on the Coyne-Jeffords bill mak
ing an appropriation for more build
lugs at the Vinita insane asylum. The
bill, as Introduced, appropriated $600,
000 to be available half and half the
next two years. The guardians of the
treasury tackled It at once Wedties
day and McCUntlc forced through an
amendment cutting the amount to
♦300,000.
Anthony moved to reconsider, say
ing that the house did not understand
the exingency or it would not have cut
the amount In two. A general debate
followed, with the authors of the bill
vigorously defending tbe full amount
and other legislators endeavoring te
win amendments to trim It.
Maxey's amendment cutting tbe
amount to $500,000, or $100,000 lest
than was asked, was accepted by the
authors, and the bill recommended for
passage without further debate.
