Ex-Gov. steele,s Good Work

Kansas City (Mo) Journal.
 Oklahoma was the first Territory that was ever given permission to lease her public school lands and collect the rent ais When one notes the income of aoout $4oV,0Oo annually from this source, he may realize how much this means for Oklahoma. and how much the public schools would have suffered had they not had it. Few people know that the credit for securing this magnificent rev. enue for the public schools of Oklahoma rests with the first Territorial Governor. George w. Steele of Indiana, who was defeated for the senatorship from that State. At the time when he was Cover nor of Oklahoma 1t was the custom to leave the school lands idle and not give a Territory permission to lease them un+iI it was admitted as a State. The wor[ done during his term of Governor that has ultimately resulted in the most good to the Territory was his securing for Ok- lahoma the permission to lease bar school lands. and 1t is just that he shonId receive the credit for this.

WALKER FILES REPLY
SHOWS WHY HE SHOULD NO,
 PAY LICENSE.
Merchant in Annexed Territory -.of Montgomery Proposes to Test the Act-Contention as to
 City Charter.

Answer was filed yesterday by the de- fendant m the suit for the payment Of city license of the city of Montgomery against J. l.. Walker, general mer- chant and liquor dealer of the annexed territory, who has refused to pay the city license on the ground that the Greater Montgomery act is unconstitutional.
 The answer sets out that the act is url- constitutional on the ground that 1t fails to come up to the constitutional provision, which requires every local law to be ad- .vertised; in that there was a difference of fifty acres in the territory advertised and the territory taken in under the act. The answer further sets out that the Journal of the House of Representatives shows that the bill was reported without recommendation by standing committee in conflict with the constitutional pro- vision that every bill shall be acted upon in regular session by committee.
 The case will be heard during the De- cember call of the civil division of the City Court of Montgomery.
 Contention as to Charter.
 Investigation yesterday concerning the point raised by Tax Commissioner W. M. Blakey that the present city charter of Montgomery is invalid, disclosed the fact that the charter bill, which was passed by the Legislature of 1SO2-9S. was signed by the presiding officer of both houses.
 The bill was signed by Hon. J. c. Comp ton as President of the Senate. by Hon. Francis L. Pettus as Speaker of the House, and by Governor Thomas G. Jones.
 The Journal of the Senate fails, how ever, to show that the bill was signed. It is contended by MT. Blakey that this fail ure nullifies the act.
 Judge A. D. Sayre of the City Court, will listen to argument today on the con- tention made by MT. Blakey.

its life there were no children. The lit. tie fellow knew no associate but the father and mother. I have often won. dered since learning of this curious casa what must have been the impression of the youngster when he gazed for the first time on a member of the human family smaller than he was. Did ha think he had come upon a race of dwarfeF Or had his parents given him some idea of the existence of children? I do not know the family. and. therefore, cannot answer these questions. But I would like to know just how the little fellow
 felt when he first beheld a child If is the only case of the kind which has come to my knowledge. He had never had an opportunity~to play the litle games which most of us knew in the days of our childhood. He had never gone through any of the things which made young life sweet to all of us fellows; and. while not knowing but what there may be compensating advantages in a life of this sort 1 have always felt a bit sorry for the youngster in question Come to think of 1t, though, he missed a few things one would like to forget. for I suppose most of us have felt the ran of the maternal slipper because of diso- bedience due directly to ones compan- ions. At any rate. We have always cherished the idea that our companions were m measure responsible for many Of the raps We got The child who never knew child could not be led astray in this way. So we do not kTiow but that the lack of eompanionship may have something to commend it.

New York. Nov .17.-The Sun says: An nouncement was made to-day by a mu- tual friend of the two men that William J. Bryan, now on the ocean. is going from Liverpool directly to Moat House, Vantage, England. where he will be the guest of Richard Croker for a week. The visit was arranged by correspondence. and was brought about by Democrats of national prominence.
 The correspondence that led to Mir Bry- ans acceptance of the invitation to visit MT. Croker at his home in England be- gan some time ago. It was brought about by statement made by Mir. Bryan to the effect that he had great respect for the political judgment of Mir Croker, and could never forget how much the latter had done for him in the campaign of 1900
 Senator German. Hon. Charles A. Towne and other Democrats had tried in vain to get Mir. Bryan to let up in his agitation of the free silver question, and his fight on all Democrats who opposed him in 1895 and 1900. Their efforts were unavailing. and then they appealed to Mr. Croker and asked him to use his in huence to induce Bryan to permit a re- organization of the Democratic party With the silver question eliminated The approaching visit of Bryan to Croker is the outcome of all these negotiations.
 MT Croker has been in correspondence with number of Democratic leaders of national prominence and Is well inform ed as to the political situation in this country Ills friends say that he has no intention of returning to New York to take any part in the affairs of Tammany, but that 1t is the ambition of his life 10 come to this country next year and act the part of Democratic Warwick. He wants to take an active part in a re- examination of the Democratic party in the nation.

Lum DuBow Who Escaped From
 Penitentiary,

Pen1tenttary.
 Lum DuBow, a negro convict, who escaped from the State penitentiary six years ago, while serving a life sentence for a murder committed in Henry Coun- ty was brought to Montgomery last night and confined in the Montgomery County jail by s. D. May, sheriff of Crenshaw County.
 DuBow killed negro in Henry County about ten years ago. He was tried and given the death sentence, but on a re- hearing was sentenced to life impirson- ment.
 In 1897 he escaped from the Wetumpka penitentiary and since that time has been at large. He was apprehended in Cren- shaw County few days ago by Sheriff May and is now awaiting the order of the Convict Bureau in the Montgomery County jail
