How to Take Moonlight Photographs.
]. B. Darlington in Scribner

Moonlight effects in photographs have
long been admired by the uninitiated and
fully appreciated by both amateur and pro-
fessior al photographers for their beauty,
and many plates too have been spoiled by
srap-slotters who have accepted moonlight
as the real illumination of these views, and
full orb of night Moonights with the moon
herself in evidence are really sun photo
graphs; that is, pictures taken with a rap
id exposure, the camera pointed toward the
sun generally in the late afternoon or early
morning and with clouds between the lens
and the direct rays. Many charming So
called night pictures are taken by making
two exposures, a short one in the rapidly
diminishing afternoon sunlight, TO get am

fortably, it must be said-looked upon by
our townsmen as a sort of local moneyed

are unquestionably easier and, in many
respects, more attractive here than in
many other places. Rents, for example, are
decidedly lower. My house, while not on
the main street is centrally and pleas
antly located, with a generous strip of
fruit and shade trees. The house is very
plain, somewhat old-fashioned, and imper-
fectly arranged, but it is in good repair
and has. unlike the houses of most of my
neighbors, the modern conveniences of gas,
furnace, and bathroom. The rent is $3.50

that the success Of some contemporary
books is due to the correspondence that
exists between the state of the authors
nerves and the state OF the nerves
OF the public. Spiritual dependency,
which, under the name OF acedia, was
accounted one Of the seven deadly sins
during the middle ages, has come in
these later days to be one OF the main
resources Of literature. Life itself has

LAME CONTEST.

1t is said that L. B. Bell is pre-
pairing to file a contest for the SEN
atorial seat Of j. Y. F~s'ings in
Delaware district. II he loes it
will be the first time that he ever
attempted such a thing. Everyone
who is at all familiar with Bells
methods knows that his capacity
for getting illegal votes is unsur-
passed in this country or any 9TH
er. 1t sounds a good deal like a
huge joke to hear Of him contest
ing an election. Would he allege
fraud? 1t is known that he is the
author Of nine-tenths Of the fraud
ulent methods employed in elec-
tions in the country. Itis claimed
that he finds fault with the oppo-
sition for using whisky at Ketchum
precinct. Well, whisky has been
his main dependence in getting
votes always, and from all ac.
counts he flched the nomination
from the district convention in
Delaware with whisky and money.
He claims that he was not able to
go against Bill Hastings money.
Nobody believes that, for it is well
known that his friends would let
no one go beyond them in the ex-
penditure OF money for votes. No;
the best thing for Hoolie to do is
to subside. Were he to 60 to
Tahlequah with such a tale Of woe,
were he TO claim that he had been
defeated by fraud, that he had
been beaten at his own game-no
one would believe him and he
would be given the "horse laugh. ="
At Vinita precinct, Of the numbers
who tried to vote fraudulently anl
were turned away, every one Of
them were Bell men. aud his
friends and henchmen tried in vain
to vote them. A contest would, if
properly and fairly conducted,
bring Bell out a great many votes
behind. Perhaps Mr.. Bell reasons

Pres. Okla Bar Assn.
As stated in these columns last
week, the Vinita Bar association
declared itself as considering the
scheme impracticable and that it
should be condemned, and that
Indian Territory lawyers should
not attend. Concerted action in
protesting against any scheme that
can be construed into iavo-ing a
union OF any kind with Oklahoma,
was recommended, and it is not
improbable this action has been a
factor in causing the abandonment
of the project.

Judge Thomas, Opinion.

In rendering an opinion last
Saturday in the case cf Norwood
against Mcdaniel in which the in
corporation Of Claremore under
the Arkansas laws was involved,
Judge Thomas said;
The United States having trans.
ierred the lands TO the Cherokee
people for a valuable consideration
and undel treaty had recognized
that the Cherokee people have a
right to establish for themselves
CORPORATE laws and municipal gov.
ernments within their domain;
that congress has no power to in
teryene and establish other courts
within their municipal bounds
which will conflict with municipal
laws established by the Cherokee
nation under it's authorized author
ity, and that all parties, even if
they are members of the U. s.
government and not citizens Of the
Cherokee nation, are to all intents
and purposes intruders, and have
no legal rights which th0y can
claim outside of the privileges
which they exercise under their
permits to be present and reside
within the Cherokee nation.
Therefore il was the opinion Of
the court that the attempt to or.
ganize a municipal government
under the laws Of the state Of Ar
kansas, within the Cherokee ma
ton where municipal corporations
