Washington, Feb. 7. The Sen-
ate yesterday morning passed the
bill introduced by Mr. Fairbanks
providing for two additional just-
ices of the supreme court for Ok-
lahoma. The salaries of the just-
ices of the supreme court were
tixed at #4,500. It is now #3,000.
The court, under the Fairbanks
bill, consists of a chief justice and
six associate justices.
In the report accompanying the
bill, the phenomenal growth of
Oklahoma is referred to and the
fact cited that 100,000 population
had been added by the organiza-
tion of three new counties. I nder
the terms of the new bill, the
territory will be divided
seven judicial districts.
