THE OFFICIAL RETURNS COMING IN /.
OnicIal election returns from all ex-
cept eight of the seventy five counties
in the new state have been received
at the office of the territorial secre-
tary. Secretary Charles Fl. Filson
said today that the other eight coun-
ties doubtless would be in his office by
the time the canvass began on Oct. 8.
Mr.. Filson believes that the canvass
OF the vote on the constitution and
statewide prohibition will be finished
by October Is. These ballots will be
canvassed by board composed OF the
territorial secretary, the chief justice
OF Oklahoma and the senior federal
Iildge in Indian Territory. When the
canvass is finished the official result
will be certified to President Roose-
velt.
A STATE IN NOVEMBER.
The returns will not be sent to
Washington until certified copy Of
the constitution, as prescribed in the
election ordinance adopted by the con-
stitutional convention, has been made
by the territorial secretary for the use
of President Roosevelt. Secretary
Fllson does not know just how long
it will take to make this copy. He
said that under any circumstances
everything necessary for official action
by President Roosevelt would be in
the latter's possession by Nov /.
This would enable che president to
issue his proclamation declaring Okla
homa a state in the first week in
November.

Guthrie, OK, Sept. 27-The Presi-

approve the constitution took OKLA

were counting upon making such a
presentation Of conditions in the two
territories, together with a showing
of the alleged defects in the cons
titution, as would cause President
Roosevelt, incase he should decline
to reject the constitution, to send it
to congress, where Oklahoma RApub-
licans were convinced ir would be de-
feated.
All these plans now are overturned
and the Republicans are in absolute
confusion Even if a contest should
be made against G. N. Haskell the
Democratic nominee for governor, on
the ground Of fraud at the polls, es-

NO CONCESSION
To v. v. P.

The Electrical Workers union
did not press action by the central
body last night on the placing of
the w. w. P. Co. on the fair list
1t is known that any movement of
this kind will be fought by the
Garments union, as that organiza-
ton never settled with the local
monopoly. A number of delegates
from other unions would have
taken the floor against the COM
pany if the matter had been
brought up, as the general senti-
ment is to leave the company on
the unfair list and patronize the
cars only when compelled to do so.
1t is becoming generally under
stood among local union men that
the battles of the future with the
w. w. P. people must be along po-
litical lines.

Of thousands of people in America
who work hard both mentally and
physically exploiting other mems
labor, and believe they are en-
titled to all they manage to take;
such as spectators in stock, lands,
or any human necessity.
The burglar works quite as hard
mentally and physically in plan
ming the housebreaking and carry
ing out his plan; for it must be no
slight mental strain to plan the
best ways of getting into house
at night or to FIX upon house;
and no slight physical exertion to
do away with the resistance of in
tricate locks and alarm-giving
glass windows. A mans physical
being must be taxed to the utmost
to gather together the silver and
other valuables after he has
broken into the house, and to make
his escape. He never dreams of ar
guing that he works hard and
should therefore be entitled to the
silver
Besides taking away from him
what he got through much hard
labor, we lock him up. Society rec
ognizes the parasltism of the house
breaker in spite of all his hard
work: but in the case of the other
burglar-the speculatOr-though
public sentiment is growing apace
in that direction, we have not yet
come to see clearly that though be-
tween the two there may be diff.
ference in kind, there is far less
difference in degree than is com
monty supposed.
Superficial reform movements
have proved unable to cope with
the problem. The doing out OF
aims to the poor through charities
is proving not only futile so far as
the problem of the poor is con
cerned, but often harmful as well
Not only does the money power

but after making the poor, it also
through it's charities, robs them oil
self-respect by causing the poor t6
believe that they are getting some
thing for nothing. Very harmful
are also these charities" of the
rich. because by their attitude
they blind the people to the rea
causes of poverty. The fact thai
women in the upper classes, with
few exceptions, do not know that
the wealth they receive is created
by labor, does not make it less de
plorable that in returning through
charities" a little of that wealth
to the working people, they believe
themselves to be rendering a rea
service to the community. Divi

BARRIERS Make
No FIGHT

There is no opposition on the
part of local members of the Bar
bers' union to the American Fed
Grafton of Labor granting char
ter to the women BARRIERS. Mem
bers of the local BARRIERS union
say they had much rather see the
women BARRIERS organized than
otherwise. They said 1t was i'm
possible for them to take the ladies
into their union, as the inter
national laws would not permit OF
such action, but they have no fight
with the women, as the prices
charged are the same and wages
are paid according to the local
scale.
E. A. Cooney, local organizer OF
the federation, has written to
Frank Morrison, of the American
Federation, asking him to grant
the women engaged in this class
of work a charter.
1t is doubtful If the A. F. of l..
grants a charter, as opposition will
be encountered from the Interna.
tional BARRIERS union, but the time
is not far distant when the BARRIERS
will have to meet this question and
settle it, and 1t is safe to say that
the women BARRIERS will receive the
same treatment that has been &C.

OpeCldt correspondence 20 @ue ETosn
CHICAGO. July 23.-Girls, now
is the time to joint the union and
get married.
The Woman's National Trades
Union league is going to give
dowries. Honest, they are. They
have been talking it over, and
everybody thought it was splendid
except the representative from De-
troit, and she said that all of their
unmarried members got married
just as fast as she could get their
names down on the books, and
that it would simply keep her par
ticular organization in state OF
bankruptcy to attempt anything OF
the kind.
But evidently there must be
other places besides Detroit, places
where a working girl can belong to
the union for at least month or
something like that before casting
in her lot with some man or other
1t isn't exactly settled how much
the dowries will he, but most of the
delegates at Chicago favored kind
of sliding scale between 500 and
$500, depending upon the length OF
time a girl has been a member be-
fore the man goes around the cor
ner to see If the preacher will be
at home that night.
The Cincinnati delegate thought
the idea was good, too, because
they had so many "repeaters" In
Cincinnati, that is, working girls
who got married and then divorced,
and came back to work again. $50
many girls" she said, might in
this way earn their endowment z
or perhaps even times"
The idea is not entirely new.
Both in England and Germany the
same thing is being done, and the
delegates were unanimous in de-
claring that the time was ripe for
the institution of an American
Working Girls Endowment fund.
Miss Mary Mcdowell, prominent in
settlement work, is the promoter OF
the dowry idea in America.
Some men who were interviewed
here said that as they already ex-
pected to marry some of the young
members of the league, they were
thoroughly in favor of the matri-
monial dowry.
Only, none of them were willing
to be quoted by name.

WASHINGTON, July 23-Robt.
J. Wynee, who las been president
of the famous Gridiron club, first
assistant postmaster general, post
master general and consul general
at London, is likely to lose his pres
ent job because of the fact that
Whitelaw Reid, the American am
bassador to London, does not like
him and that Wynee is not wel-
come, either officially or personally
at Dorchester house, the palatial
London residence where Mr.. Reid
holds his celebrated receptions,
leveeS and fetes.
1t is rumored that Mr.. Wynee
will soon be recalled by Uncle Sam.
The excuse to the public is that he
is dissatisfied with his place, which
used to pay $4,000 year in sal
airy and fees, but which now is
worth only $4,000 under the new
salary system. But the real rea-
son is that Mr.. Wynne and his
family are persona non grata at
the home of Whitelaw Reid. When
the Americans in London held their
big Fourth of July celebration at
Mr.. Reid's home the name OF Mr..
Wynne was omitted from the list
of guests.
Mr. Wynne, it is said. will be sue
cee6ed by Wespasian Warner, for
