OUR NEW STATE.

The unanimity Of the vote In the
House OF Representatives upon the con.
ference report on the statehood bill and
the unbounded enthusiasm OF the citi'
xens OF the new commonwealth reflect
In a measure the general satisfaction
Of the people Of the United States. For
Il has been evident for several years
that nothing but political expediency
could justify the barring longer Of the
claims for Statehood which Oklahoma
clearly had to present. The new com.
monwealth has approximately 100000
population. 1t will be entitled to five
representatives In the lower House. II
has great wealth Of many kinds; Its
future Is bright with promise. Indeed,
looking back after the fact upon the
States which have been admitted since
1860 no instance Is TO be found OF n
State having at the time Of its admls'
sion anywhere nearly SO strong claim
as that OF Oklahoma. The long famil'
lar term INDIAN Territory" passes out
OF history, an incident Of much Inter

to that part of the country TO get them
out OF the Southern States, where they
had become hlndrance TO the settlers
who wished the splendid cotton lands
OF the red men. The arguments made
70 induce them 10 leave the homes Of
their fathers and the burial places Of
their dead make strange reading just
now. In way they illustrate the diff
cultles which confront craftsmanship iu
country where the possibilities OF the
future are so nearly unlimited. No
one In the '30s apparently had any idea
that the Indian lands would ever be
wanted as part OF a State. Indeed, u
treaty made in ls2s, which placed some
Of the Indians In what afterwards be
came known officially as the Indian
Territory, actually promised the people
PERMANENT home that shall never In
all the future time be embarrassed BY
having extended around ii or placed
over II the Jurisdiction Of any territory
or State, nor be pressed upon by the
extension in any way Of any OF the
limits Of any existing Territory or
State" That probably seemed pretty

LAW SHOULD ACT.

There are In evidence Just now
great many restless. dissatisfied and
usually ignorant people who want laws
to he enacted upon almost every con.
ceivable subject. Somebody can be
found to champion pretty nearly my
statute that may be proposed and the
more stupid or extravagant the pro-.
posed legislation Is the .easier It will
be to find advocates for II. In view
of this situation, this itching to initiate
legislation, II Is perhaps timely to sug.
gest that these would.be lawgivers
might find opportunity for the exercise
Of their energy In urging the passage
Of law which would not be silly or
stupid but which would be righteous
and proper. We suggest, that Is to say.
the enactment Of a law providing that
when homicidal degenerate lies In
walt for woman and shoots but fails
to kill her he should be hanged by the
neck Just the same. The fact that nc.
cldent, bad ain or interference may
prevent such person from achieving
the murder which II In his heart should
not save him from the legitimate con.
sequences Of his Intentions. In all such
cases there Is deliberate murder In spir.
It and 1t Is the intent rather than the
actual deed which should count. Many
man has gone TO the gallOws for honl-
eide committed under provocatlon or In
the heat of passion, and such man IL
far less guilty than the fellow who IN
cold blood strives to murder but IL pre-.
vented by one cause or another from
staying his victim outright. There IL
entirely too much shooting Of women
nowadays. Drunken, worthless hus-
bands and Jealous. reckless admirers
have got Into the habit Of killing or
trying to kill the unfortunate women
who excite their jealousy or their re-
sentiment. Sometimes these murderous
scoundrels mitigate their guilt by blow
Ing their own heads of. This IL an act
OF partial justice. But when such vol
untary reparation 10 neglected the law
should take up the task OF vengeance
When the wOuld.be woman killer falls
to XIII himself Justice ought to take
him In hand and kill him.

BERGER LED BAND
WITHOUT score

Willie Ellis, one of the boys return
ing with the band, has a better opinion
of Captain Berger than Joe Cohen.
Willie says:
Il have heard of the talk about Ber-
ger and I must say he is not given
credit for what he has done or is doing
with the band. Nor is he given credit
for the ability he shows. L met great
many bandmasters while we were
away and watched them lead, but Ber-
ger is the only one 1 ever saw lead
without a score AS TO new dance
music, I remember one composition
which required thfrty-five minutes to
perform. Berger read the score once,
and when the piece was played he led
without the score. That shows ability
that is not possessed by the average
leader"

Dear Sir: I have the honor to be
chairman of the Committee on Parks
of the Civic Federation, and have re-
ceived, in connection with that office,
a letter which is self-explanatory, and
a copy of which enclose for your con-
sideration. l am a little uniformed
as to who actually has charge of such
work, being informed on one hand that
the Superintendent of Public Works
has charge and that the High Sheriff
furnishes prisoners for care and up
keep, and on the other hand that it is
the business of the Board of Super
visors.
In order to be sure to have the mat
ter attended to. 1 am taking the liberty
of writing both to yourself and to the
Governor, and sincerely hope that such
attention will be called to the matter
as to have it attended to Immediately.
as apparently immediate attention is
needed.
May I ask that you will acknowledge
receipt of this and inform me as to
what is necessary to be done and if
there is anything necessary further
than this communication to you, 1 will
take such other steps as may be re-
quired to have it drawn to the atten-
tion of the proper parties.
Yours very truly,

The recount of the ballots of the
! before the Supreme Court was conclud-
ed yesterday afternoon al which time
Brown was conceded a gain Of
one vote over Iaukea. This is
Brown s own precinct and in his petit
tion he alleged that he was entitled
to sixteen votes that were counted for
Iaukea but in reality should have been
counted for him (Brown). At the close
of the session of the court there were
nine rejected ballots recorded, five of
which had been counted for laukea
and four for Brown
The inspectors had reported that $50
votes for Brown and 132 for Iaukea
We're cast at the election on November
8 and there were in addition "a re-
jected ballots. Both sides agreed that
they were rejected properly.
Yesterday the ballots were removed
from the canvas bags which were seal
ed by County Clerk Kalauokalani and
held in his keeping until delivered in
to the Supreme Court room. Both the
morning and afternoon sessions were
required to recount the votes. There
Were several ballots offered for reiec-
tion by Judge Gear, counsel for Brown,
and by Mr.. Kinney, counsel for Tau,
kea, which were slightly torn or other
wise damaged. These were kept on the
bench until late in the afternoon. when,
after consultation, Judge Frear an,
nounced that they would be turned
back and counted as they were origin
ally counted by the inspectors. That

The ease attracted much attention all
day and the courtroom by evening
was crowded When the announce
ment was made of the result of the
expedition the Iaukea forces looked
triumphant.
"A ease of 10 to - remarked an
attorney sotto voce.
Ballot after ballot had been offered
to the justices for perusal. Judge Gear
did most of the offering. There were
various additional marks on some bal
lots, some were torn, sometimes the Y
was said to be cross; sometimes the
cross started IN one space and finished
in another. Kinney found a few of
the same ealiber but of course they
were Brown ballots. Some were pune
tured and there were various ideas sug-
gested for their rejection.
When the torn ballots had been
counted in regularly and the nine re-
jected ballots Were officially recorded
as such, Judge Frear spoke as above.
In addition he said, after remarking
about everything to gain and moth
ing to lose':
THAT is the feeling the court has
at the present time about this. Some
prima facie showing should be made
that this petition is made on a proper
knowledge of facts.''
