IT'S UP TO
THE VOTER


will require every man TO be able Z
read and write the English Language
before he shall vote,
This is unamerican and con
trary 70 the spirit Of our institutions
This viii all be determined by th,
poll tomorrow Remember this wa
the first proposition that Nh Korne
gay declared himself upon years age
when he announced his purpose oi
going 10 the Constitutional Conven.
tion as delegate. His views upon
this question are positive; his inten-
tions set and his york will be carried
thru with all his yigor ifhe is ssuccess-
full DO we want such provision in
the Constitution or Oklahoma? To
the fair mind it appears unjust, and
70 the just mind ID appears tyranni-
cal. II is up to you, citizens OF the
seth district 10 say whether or not
such provision shall be hung upon
the great Constitution OF Oklahomg
When The delegates meet at Guthrie
to frame Constitution for this great
state to be, the very first problem
they will have to settle will be who
shall have a voice IN its Government.
The Revolutionary war was fought to
uphold the principal that every man
who is subject to laws and is taxed to
uphold the Government has a right to
a voice in that Government. Mr..
Kornegay will rise ia his seat, If he
be delegate, and oppose this first
proposition that viii come before
that body. He will oppose it as a
matter Of principle. BY birth and by
education he has been taught to be-
lieve in It, He will not be converted
from h by the arguments Of those
who do not believe In it. With such
provision in the Constitution Of Ok
lahoma, the best citizens Of other |
states, who believe in fair play and
honest Government, will hesitate to
come into this great common wealth. |
On the other hand, Charles b. Rogers |
takes exactly the opposite view from |
Mr. Kornegay, and in his case, by |
birth education and training he be-
lieven In every man having an equal
voice in the government, regardless Of |
the fact he can or cannot read. AS a
principal Of just and right, he believes
that every man who is to be subject
to law and taxed to support the insti-
tutions Of the state shall have a light
to say what the laws shall be and how
the Institutes Of the state shall be
run.
It is put up to your votes to settle
this question at the polls.

BEST FOOD FOR HENS
AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT TO
MAKE EXPERIMENTS.
Viii Try to Learn II Mash Should Be
Moist or Dry--Hope TO In
crease Production Of
Eggs.


WashiEgton.-Th department o
agriculture has started a new expert
ment station at the federal anima
quarantine station at Ealethorpe, neal
Baltimore. The experiments are to bC
conducted under the supervision OF
Robert r. Slocum, an expert who was
recently added to the staff Of the bu
reau OF animal industry for a partic
ular line Of investigation. For several
years IL has been a strongly contested
question among poultrymen whether
! mash fed TO hens should be dry OF
moist Within the last year or two
another problem has arisen with the
introduction of the hopper feeding sys-
tenn on commercial scale.
In conducting these chicken-laying
experiments a hen house will be con-
structed, divided into three pens, each
accommodating 25 hens, with suitable
yards. This house, together with in
cubators, brooders, etc, sufficient to
raise enough pullets to replace those
used in the experiments, will comprise
the immediate equipment The differ
ent lots Of fowls are to be housed ex-
actly alike and all conditions made
equal, except the methods Of feeding.
The fowls in pen No. / will receive
morning and night, a mixture of
whole or cracked grains scattered in
the litter, and at noon a moistened
mash. Those in pen No. 2 will receive
morning and night the same grain mix
ture fed in the litter exactly as with
pen No. / and the same mash at noon,
except that this mash will be fed dry.
This will test the question Of the dry
and the moist mash.
The fowls in pen No. will be fed on
precisely the same feed as those in the
other pens, but will be fed from two
self-feeding hoppers, one containing
the grain and the other dry mash. The
hopper containing the grain will be
opened about four p. m. in winter and
five p. m. in summer, and will be left
open until the next noon. 1t will then
be closed, and the hopper containing
tho mash will be opened and left so
until the first hopper is again opened.
late in the afternoon. In this way
the hens viii have feed before them all
the time, and can eat as much or as
little as they please. A comparison
can then be made with pen No. 2, the
only difference between the two pens
being that pen No. 2 receives its feed
at stated intervals and in amounts
Indicated by the appetites of the
fowls, while the hens in the other pen |
can help themselves at all times.
White Plymouth Rock fowls will be
used not because Of any special pref.
srence for this variety. but for reasons
Of convenience. Pullets win be raised |
from the various pens and the test re-
Deated twice to confirm results and
note the effects of the different sys-
ems of vitality.
II is hoped that by careful study
# this chicken dietary question the
amount of eggs produced in this coun-
ry may be materially increased, per-
laps as much as five per cent, which
would mean a billion more a year for
he national consumption.

Altar-Groom Appears to Be Man

Special to Times-Repub1lcan.


Manila, Aug. pa rather peculiar
and romantic marriage occurred here
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, as re-
suit of Miss Alice Iseminger winning
the record as the best lady corn husk-
er of the state last fall. She is the Is
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Iseminger, living near this
city. 1t will be remembered that upon
promise that she should receive a
gold watch If she picked 100 bushels
in one day, she went afield early in
the morning, and picked III bushels
before o'clock in the afternoon. This
brought forth much press comment
and many of the papers published an
account of the feat with half-tone
likeness of the young lady. One George
claims to be champion husker also,
seeing the picture wrote Miss Ise-
minger, congratulating her upon her
success, whereupon correspondence
sprang up, and continued until he Wis
tied the young lady's home last spring
Her parents and friends thought it
merely an incidental visit, but the
young people had other ideas. Ac-
cordingly, few weeks ago, Alice in
formed her parents that he was going
to return soon, from Ennon, Okla,
where he had located since his first
visit, and that they were to be mar
ried and she would return with him.
She further informed them that his
name was not Brown, as they had been
taught to believe, but Nelson. and that
while she would he married to him
under the name OF Nelson, she said
they would pass as Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Brown when arriving in Ennon, Okla,
where he had racket store.
This fact was Kept secret by the
family until Sunday morning when
Rev. Gable, of the NJ. e. church, who
had been called to perform the cere-
mony, by Mr.. Brown, found that the
license was made out to one George
Nelson. After the ceremony they de-
parted Immediately, presumably for
Oklahoma.

Frustrated by the singularity OF the
facts. 1t seems that he represented
to some that his parental home was at
Keokuk. this state, and to others that
it was In Nebraska. He seems to give
no satisfactory explanation as to why
he adopts a change OF name, except

gagged to marry young lady, he re-
fused for reasons best known to him

him.
