TWO MEN WILL DIE AS
RESULT Of SHOOTING
Mistake Causes Horrible Tragedy Near InOla--
John K. CrutchGeld and Jim Price Fatally
Wounded Both Had Gone to House to
Watch for HOrsethieUes--Price Opened
Fire and Was Shot Down.

lnola, Okla, June 23.--J X. Crutch-
field is on the operating table, in a
dying condition and Jim Price is fat
ally wounded as result of a shooting
affray that resulted from a mistaken
identity, at house a few miles from
this place, at about midnight last
night.
Jim Price and two other men had
been sent by the Anti-Horse Thief as
sociation to watch house for some
horse thieves, and were stationed on
watch, when Crutchfield and the city
marshal of Inola who had also started
for the same place appeared. Price
mistook Crutchfield and his compan-
ion for the horse thieves and fired, the
ball striking Crutchfield and fatally
wounding him. The city marshal then
shot Price. Both of the wounded
men were brought to lnola for medi-
cal aid, but no hope is entertained for
either of them. At noon today it was
thought that Crutchfield was dying.

COURT SUSTA|NS
E|GHT-HOUR LAW
Opinion Says The Law is a-Direction
To The Agents of The State
And Valid.

Guthrie, Okla, June 23-The con-
stitutionality of the eight-hour law
for labor on public works, passed by
the legislature of 19O7-S, was affirmed
yesterday by the criminal court of ap-
peals in an opinion of Justice Doyle.
The point was raised in the appeal of
G. L. Byers, foreman for the ]. F. Hill
Construction company, doing paving
work in Guthrie, who had been work
ing his men ten hours. Byers was con-
victed in the county court of Logan
county and appealed on the ground
that the law was unconstitutional
In sustaining the constitutionality of
the law, Justice Doyle holds that it is
not an exercise of the police powers of
the state, but merely an action by the
state as party to the contract in
fixing the hours of labor, as any other
employer has the right to do.
The court holds that the law is a
direction of the state to it's agents and
therefore valid. Municipal corpora
tions are held to be auxiliaries of the
state for local government, and it is
held to be the power of the state
to prescribe the terms on which public
work is done for itself or its municipal
tiles.
State Labor Commissioner Charles
Daugherty was much gratified by the
decision of the court, and expressed
the opinion that hereafter he would
have little difficulty in enforcing the
eight hour law
The new eight hour law was adopted
by the second legislature for the pur-
pose of making the old law more def
mite in some of it's provisions and does
not in any way conflict with the meas
ure, the constitutionality of which has
just been upheld
The new law also was adopted to
supply a code on that subject should
the old law be invalidated by the
supreme court. Yesterdays decision
Of the court practically assures that
the new law is also valid in every
particular and further attacks are ex-
pected upon the eight hour code.
