CAMPAIGN rALsEHoons,

The Republicans are trying to
influence voters TO oppose the
constitution on the plea that the
tax provisions OF that document
mean almost eonhscation OF prop
erty, and there is no limit to the
recklessY Ystatemenvs they are
spreading over the state 70 catch
the unwary. Among other classes
Of voters they are-tryiug % ar
que that the constitution makes
the tax levy so low that schools
can not be maintained more than
two or three months IN the year
and the expenses Of county and
state government @an not be
maintained. Both Of these state.
ments can not be true, aud the
fact Is that both are untrue, and
circulated to mislead the voters.
The truth is.that the tax levy for
an purposes Is limited outside Of
the cities and Incorporated towns
to 33i mills on the one hundred
dollars valuation, or .o3s per
cent, while most farmers over
on tbs Oklahoma side are now
paying from 6 70 s perxcent.
The constitution.provides that
II mills of the amount levied, or
more than one half OF the total
tax, may b. applied 1for school
purposes. Ii the cities the same
restrictions arr made, ,lexeept that
ten mills, or one per cent add.

 It would seem to be necessary to increase the police force to double the present number in view of the fact that many undesirable citizens are to be seen day and night on the streets.
 Several day and night burglaries have been committed, some not even reported.
 A case has come to light wherein a young woman was followed by q man who aliglted from the street car a minute after and kept close be- hind her. The young woman began to increase her pace and the man did likewise. When she ran the man also quickened his steps. In order to avoid the follower the young wo- man ran into the first house she passed and then the man hurried out of sight. Thereafter the young wo- man was escorted to her home, where she was prostrated from nervous ex- citement
 Last evening about 6 o'clock a half dozen rough-looking men jostled a lady on Congress street, just east of Church. One of them insulted the woman, who kept on without giving the manFurther attention. What one of them at least deserved was a sound thrashing on the spot Several men nearby noticed the mems actions but did not resent their action in any way.
 There are many incidents that de serve the attention of the police which they do not hear Of Let there be more police on duty, at least for a few months.
 It may be added that the circus at tracted quite a number of "undesir- ables" to the city. It is hoped that they kept company with the circus lon the. westbound tourney

Demand has fallen off sharply owing
to the enforced restrictions of
slaughterers buying. Consumption,
too, has been on the decrease and
the public clamor for cheaper meats
has had its effect. Now, however
things are looking UP a little. The
cattle feeders seem to be taking a
more conservative view of affairs in
the trade and appear inclined to mar
ket their holdings in volume more in
keeping with demands. Continuation
of this sane conservative policy by live

market In better condition.
