WILL TAKE CENSUS
ROOSEVELT WANTS INFORMA-
TION ON OKLAHOMA VOTE.
TO SEEK OUT GERRYMANDER
Population of Proposed Divisions in
Oklahoma to Be Sized Up to
Determine Their Fairness.

Washington, June 25-On advice of
the attorney general the president to-
day instructed the secretary Of COM
merce and labor to have the census
bureau make special census Of the
inhabitants Of the proposed state of
Oklahoma, including both the present
territory Of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory to determine the population
Of the new state and its distribution
among the several territorial subdi-
visions into which the state will be
divided should the constitution CON
tirmed by the convention lately sitting
there be approved at the polls.
This, the first action taken by the
president touching the Oklahoma con-
stitutlon, shows that he has had it
under consideration, and is somewhat
concerned over the gerrymander,
which the Democrats made, and which
the Republicans are complaining of.
Republican leaders from the ter
ritories while here recently produced
the vote Of the various districts and
counties to show the president how
unfair the gerrymander was. They
pointed out that thousands of people
had practically been disfranchised.
The vote which they used in their
arguments before the president was
that cast for delegates to the consti-
tutional convention, the latest ex-
preston Of the people.
The Democratic delegation, which
followed the Republicans here, point
ed out that the division Of the state
into senatorial and legislative dis
tricts was not based upon the vote
cast at the constitutional delegate

Mr.. Davidson took the oath Of Office
Immediately after his appointment by

Dawes commission by Col Thos, B.
Needles He was later transferred to
the contest division Later he was
sent to Vinita, where he was employ
ed in the Cherokee land Office. When
Judge Lawrence was appointed in the

They claimed that the vote cast at
the election should not be taken as a
basis, as in many strong Democratic
localities the contests were settled at
the Democratic primaries, and the
people did not vote later, at the reg
ular elction.
The enumeration will commence as
soon as the preliminary arrangements
can be perfected aud the necessary
printing done, probably on or about
the first day Of July. The director Of
the census has designated Mr. VIM. @.
Hunt, chief statistician for population
to take the immediate supervision Of
the work IN the field.

MILK DELUSIONS.
DR.. Brush Combats Some Prevailing Beliefs
About Milk.

In a little pamphlet entitled MILK Decisions Dr.
p. F. Brush. of Mount Vernon, maintains that fcr
the perfect nutrition of babies vitality in the milk
is absolutely necessary, Milk. says Dr.. Brush
must not only be secreted by animal in per-
feet health. free from foreign material. fresh
and clean. but II must be living" Although un-
able to say Just how many hours milk lives after
IL has left the udder DR.. Brush says he believes
even tho very hest milk Obtainable In cities Is
dead after twenty-four hours. or sooner, II not
removed quickly from the influence of summer TEN
perature. which destroys milk rapidly Chemicals
added 40 the milk XIII this living juice at the
same time that they delay the natural decay
and this statement the author says holds good OF
sterized or pasteurlze 81 milk-that is to say both
these processes kill IT." And he adds that in his
belief human ingenuity never correct. or as
semble together putritve clements that We know
are required 20 nourtsh properly baby, In such
a manner form perfect food for youhs
child. IL these conclusions are correct. then
the modifying and otherwise bringing together nu-
tritve elements that not combined vitality IS one
OF the milk decisions stin prevailing.
Other 'delusOns' cOmbated by the author are
the lactometer test, the uniform standard OF fats
and solids adopted health requirement by the
New York City Board OF Health), and the bacterial
standard. which is characterized as the most
recent and still prevailing Selusion," and the
cream delusion." In closing, DR.. Brush pays .
high tribute TO DR.. Darlington, Health Commits
sioner Of New York City.
