HOW IT CAN Be DONE
Despite Red Tape of En-.
abling Act.

member OF the districting board of
Oklahoma is authority for the state
ment that Oklahoma will actually be
come a state May /, 1907 The esti-
mate, as he figures 1t. is very conser
yative. That there may be consider
able red tape to run before the en-.
abling act becomes effective was con
firmed in the statehood bill itself but
If President Roosevelt does not issue
the proclamation decIaring the union
OF Oklahoma and Indian Territory by
next May it will be because some un-
forseen contingency is to blame.
The call for the constitution con-
vention. Il is said now, will be issued
about September l and the election
at November 8. Delegates will receive
pay for sixty days and It is likely that
the first session viii adjourn the first
of the year.
There may be some fght that de-
velops In the constitutional conyen-
tion but that event is not at all prob
able, judging by the feeling that per-
Iyades through both territories.
AT any rate the convention will pro
vide for the ratification Of the con-
stiution and the election OF state and
congressional officers. Some politi-
clans are of the opinion that three
months campaign for such vital is
sue is too short but local authorities
think there is no doubt thai the first
election will be held the first of April,
1907. This viii give the authorities
until the middle OF April TO certify the
results to President Roosevelt aud that
official has 20 days in which 10 issue
the proclamation, bringing the climax
about If not exactly on May 1.
Ii has already been decided that
the new star shall not appear on the
national dag until July 4, 1907.

Harry Priester Of Tulsa, was found
has been closely watched by the citi-

when examined, showed considerable

VERDICT IS
SET ASIDE

Presiding Justice Sweetand has set
aside the verdict OF S375l 90 OF Luke Nc

juries greed that the plaintiff was eli
titled to substantial damages.
Judge Sweetland believes that tho last
verdict was unwarranted, and says:
while II IS not without weight that
juries have concurred I'm such a finding,
still the court should not be governed by
that circumstance alone, when the verdict
Is so clearly contrary TO the weight CT

A Juror named Hitchcock engaged IN

Judge Sweetland also finds sufficient
ground to set the verdict aside.
