RUSSELL GIVES UP
REFERENDUM PLAN
New Law Providing For Establish.
ment of Various State Industries
Goes Into Effect Today.

Guthrie, Okla, June 1.-THE laws
for building the Ada normal school
and other educational and charitable
institutions went into effect today.
During the past two months Senator
Campbell Russell of Warner Okla,
has caused to be circulated referen-
dun petitions for the purpose of re-
ferring these schools to vote of the
people, which in effect would have
been to put off the construction of
those referred until after the next
general election or special election
called for that purpose.
1t appears, however. that the peo-
pie are in favor of the immediate
of these institutions. as
Senator Russell has failed to get even
the fourteen thousand names neces-
sary to call a referendum. He gave
up the fight yesterday and informed
Assistant Secretary of State Leo
Meyer that he was going back to his
farm. and had utterly failed in getting
the required number Of signatures.

Washington, d. c., June 1.-THE
department of agriculture today, ac-
cepted the challenge of j. F. Harms,
government meat inspector at ST.
Louis. who in rendering his resigna-
ton made serious charges against the
meat inspection system, in East st.
Louis, and two government inspectors
have been ordered to st. Louis, with
instructions to make an immediate
and thorough investigation.
Harms, who has gone to his home in
Fremont, O., asserts that he resigned
because he could not tolerate the con-
ditions he saw and that inspectors in
charge of the bureau of animal indus
try are too lenient with the packers
He says no animus prompted his let
ter.
After asserting that "U. S. inspect
ed and passed" as it appears on prod
ucts of all the packing houses is
meaningless because of the inadeQuacy
of the inspection, Harms says in part
in the letter.
"The inspection at the National
stock yards, illinois, is costing the peo-
Pile approximately 100000 year and
it is not actually worth 81 to them.
For when the word is passed from the
inspector in charge on to the inspec-
tors actually doing the work on the
floors that they are getting too many
condemned animals and to change the
grading, what does that mean? 1t
means that the whole thing is rotten
and farce. Mr.. Secretary. the pack
ers are getting today from 70 to 80
per cent o. what ought to be con
demned and destroyed.
IF you please, Mr.. Secretary, have
seen from l 200 to 500 pounds of lard
spilled on the floor and which ran
down into an open sewer in the floor,
the sewer outlet being quickly blocked

BOARD WILL URGE
USE OF MILITIA
Board of Public Affairs at McAlester
Going over Plans For State
Prison.

McAlester, Okla, June 11.-Roy
Hoffman of Chandler. Roy f Allen of
Durant and Bert Chandler of Vinita,
comprising the state board of affairs,
we're here yesterday in company with
their consulting architest, Patrick H.
Weathers of Guthrie, going over the
plans for the state penitentiary Chair
man Hoffman said that advertisements
of bids for construction and material
for the main buildings probably would
be made July /.
The board is seriously considering
recommending to Governor Haskell
that a detail Of ten to fifteen members
of the state militia be made to guard
the convicts while they are engaged in
construction of the prison, outside the
walls. The plan is to have the men
relieved every two weeks, so as not to
work a hardship. It is estimated $1,000
a month could be saved in this way.
Last night the board received a dele
CATION from Wilburton. seat Of the
State School Of Mines, urging the inn
mediate letting of contracts for the
proper equipment of that Institution.

VOTE IS EXPECTED
TO Be POSTPONED
Senator Bailey viii Accept cummins
Amendment For Per Cent
Income Tax.

Washington, d. c., June 11-Repub-
lican and democratic advocates of the
income tax hope to get together today
on the Bailey amendment with modi-
fications proposed by Senator Cum
Minis. Senator Bailey will accept the
Cummins proposal to make the tax
of per cent instead of per cent on
incomes in excess of $4,000. He will
accept also the suggestion that in
comes derived from corporations al
ready taxed shall be exempt under
the new law
The vote on this proposition is ex-
pected to be postponed until the sched-
ules in the tariff bill shall have been
disposed Of The republican progress
sives believe they have seventeen re
publican votes for the income tax.
These with the democrats, would be
sufficient to adopt it. But Senator Aid
rich hopes to be able to capture sew
eral of them with the per cent tax
on the dividends of corporations.
Neither side is sure what the out
come of a vote would be. Both pro
fess confidence which they do not feel.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 11.-During
the terrific wind storm which prevail
ed throughout that section last night,
the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient
passenger train was blown from a
bridge across the Brazos river near
Knox City, Tex. One passenger ]. E.
Stafford of Crowell, Tex, was killed.
The details received here are very
meagre, as the wires are in bad shape,
but it is known that the train was
running at a speed of twenty miles
an hour when the accident occurred,
and had just run on the bridge when
a sudden blow sent it rolling into the
almost dry bed of the river below.
The baggage car and three coaches
toppled over, but the weight of the
engine prevented it from leaving the
rails That more persons were not
injured is due to the fact that at the
point where the train left the rails
the fill is but ten feet deep. Further
dispatches say four persons were kill
ed in a tornado at Sueders, one hun
dred miles west of Fort Worth and a
section camp at South Wichita, Tex.
was completely destroyed.
