a PUBLIC LOAN SHOP.

The municipal authorities of Kansas
City are noted for one commendabie
characteristic--they devote much time
and attention to the welfare of tho cit
liens In the humber walks of life, es-
pecially those who work for daily
wages and sometimes are out of en-
ployment. These laborers are cared for
by the city until they can ind work.
Another evidence of this tendency is
that loan shop has been opened by
the city, under the direction of the
Board of Public Welfare, This new
departure viii be harder blow TO the
money sharks than prosecution in
court. Competition with the city Will
serve to hurt very seriously the bus
mess of private concerns The loan
sharks have been able to utilize the
laws delays to their own ends and
stav in business, but the public loan
shop menaces them and will cut deeply
into their profits, if it do not destroy
them completely,
The city loan shop will lend money
on reasonable terms in cases where the
shark would charge 10 per cent. and
more. It is thought that this idea Will
be followed In other cities where bare
necessity makes the loan shark pros
porous and defiant figure in community
life.

Seeking Drinking
Fountain for Horses

The Chickasha Humane society
thinks Chickasha should have one Of
the handsome drinking fountains for
horses which a wealthy eastern philan-
thropist provided for in his will
H. L. Ensign bequeathed an immense
sum to The National Humane Alliance
to be used for this purpose and this
society has already installed the foun-
talns in many cities. Enid and Shaw
nee are two Oklahoma towns that have
secured them, and they are said to be
very ornamental as well as useful.
Jonas Cook Of the local Humane So
ciety received letter today from
Lewis N. seayer, secretary of the al
lance, saying his application for a
fountain for Chickasha had been re
ceiyed but as they had numerous appli-
cations on hand II might be a year be-
fore Chickasha was reached.

CAPITAL In
STATU QUO
Governor Takes Time to
Decide as to Next
Move

Oklahoma City, Nov. l7.-In view Of
the fact that the supreme court Of Ok
lahoma has decided that the enabling
act is void, and that the state Is with
out a capital, the question; IF Gov
ernor Charles y. Haskell issues a call
for special session Of the legislature
to locate the capital, where VIII he
call the body to assemble?" is on every
tongue.
Along this line, according to the best
information to be had it seems that the
concensus of opinion is that the body
would have to be called to meet in
Guthrie in order for its acts to be le-
gal.
When Governor Haskell was asked
Wednesday, night where he would call
the body to assemble, in the event he
should call it at all, he replied r will
give you my conclusion on this matter
in two or three days.
seeyral, members Of the legislative
body We're in the city Wednesday even
4 ing, ostensibly on private business, and
1t was their opinion that the legislature
would have to convene in Guthrie
One thing can be said with due defer
ence to authenticity, and that is, the old
legislature will not likely be assembled
in special session. The term Of office
of its membership expires November
%, six days hence, and 1t is considered
practically impossible for the body to
get together and locate the capital be-
fore the certificates OF its membership
would expire.
When the new legislature is con-
vened, in case Governor Haskell makes
the call, il wiil only lie within its
province To name the city IN which tba
state capital shall be located This
done, It would then devolve upon the
body to pass resolution authorizing
