Speaker Tousleys house bill, No 5s,
provides for very much needed re-
form in the administration OF the Of
fice Of probate judge other things
being equal, we can see why the skill
and knowledge Of the trained lawyer
would be more useful in passing upon
some Of the intricate legal questions,
that may arise in the administration
Of the estate Of deeedents
But It is an Office that touches so
nearly some OF the most important In
terests Of the whole community, that
honesty aud fidelity in the discharge
Of its duties ought to be the first con
siderat.on II one had to choose be
tween honesty without legal ability,
and legal ability without honesty, no
sensible man would hesitate in his
choice. A court Of appeals can always
correct mere errors OF law and lasting
evil would be prevented; but it is a
more difficult matter to correct the er.
rors Of corrupt and dishonest official,
IN some Of the counties OF the terri
tory 1t is complained that a competent

THE constitution OF the United
States, article ?, says: "A well reg
ulated militia being necessary 70 the
security OF free state, the right Of
the people TO keep and bear arms shall
not be infringed" 1t would seem
from this that the national govern
ment, carly in the history OF the gov
ernment recognized the necessity Of
providing for the organization Of
state militia and since then. from
time to Time, congress has made ap-
propriations for their armament,
until at the present time S4O0, 600 in
equipments is annually appropriated
to be distributed by the secretary Of
war among the national guard or.
ganizations Of the states and terri
tories. Every state and territory IN

organization, and Oklahoma with it's
magnificent future before it, cannot

There exists in the public mind
much error as to the mission aud pur-
pose OF the national guard organiza-
tions Many believe, or rather labor
under the impression, that the organ.-
zation and training Of the citizen-sol-
diery is alone for the purpose Of sup.
pressing riots and unlawful assemblies.
This is only incidentally part Of the
mission sought TO be attained, and
indeed The least OF all the considera-
tions entering into their organil Ation
and training,
The primary purpose is to ht men
for the battle Of life mentally and
physically, and when emergencies
arise thie training and knowledge OF
military affairs eqaips them for the
duties Of the hour, however urgent
the occasion.
The exercises Of the drill and taeti-
cal maneuvers, the motions and the
step, strengthen and gives vigor 10
The physical structure, while at the
same time il enlarges the scope Of the
mental vision and confers upon The
man independence aud self-reliance
elements absolutely necessary for sue
cess in life.
AS an evidence that this is true 4
the fact that educational institutions
All over the country have adopted 1
feature Of military training as par
OF their curriculum, and il has growI
30 popular in the developement Of the
mental and physical faculties OF thl
students that none who have tried
Il have sbondoned 1t, but. on the con
trary have enlarged It's scope 1t is
at the least, strange indeed that any
rejecting and sensible man. who de
sires the welfare Of bis own sons and
the sons Of his neighbors aud young
men generally. will oppose the nat
-nnai guard organizations where %
much for them can be accomplished IN
iitting them for the scIive duties Of
life. and especially 50 when Il cost,

Hon Ma. Colby, ex x-premier Of Can

says that the chief trouble in this
country is with our system Of national
banks, which are preelpded from Civ

of adequate banking facilities. M.

new wheat has been placed on the mar

though the amount is comparatively
small, it is enough to base close cal

amount is the product from about 400

equally divided between number 3. 4

little over IS cents. It is very likely
that later sales will raise the average
