An Interesting
Experiment

Make strong suds of P.ANDG.-
The White Naphtha Soap and cold
or lukewarm water.
Put into this all the dirty dish
cloths you have. Let them soak
for an hour. If any dirt spots re-
main, rub them lightly with the
soap. Remove the cloths. Rinse
in clear water. Hang up to dry.
Look at them an hour later.
They are as clean as when new
free from grease and without odor
of any kind.
The point of this little experiment is this:
If P.AND G.-The White Naphtha Soap will
clean dirty dsh-cloths, how much more easily
will it clean bed Linen, table cloths, pillow
cases. skirts, shirt waists and articles of similar
nature which never were one-tenth as dirty as
the dish-coths?

They also claim that capable road

The trustees say the salary should be
$500 per day Another matter which
was considered was that the state
should allow more than three mills

purposes, and that there should also
be a direct tax for this work Under

THREE -C0RNERED TAhGLE
Name OF Town and Postofiice
on Katy Railroad Subject
of ofDispute

The state OF Oklahoma, the Katy
railroad. and the United States post
office department are in the midst
Of an Interesting tangle over the
mime Of town and a post Office on
the railroad named.
There was once town bearing the
name of Gale. There were two
other towns In Oklahoma of the same
name and the post office department
refused to give the postoffice that
name: adopting tn name "Stemett
instead. Citizens objected to one
name fer the town and another. Tor
the post office and petitioned the
Katy TO change the name of the town
to Sterrett. This the read refused
to do on the ground that there was
already on the line a Sterrett in
Texas. Appeal was made TO the state
railroad commission which body or
dered the road 10 comply with the
demands of the people.
The Katy appealed TO the state SUI
preme court, and the complication
was too much for that august body,
and the court advised the govern
ment, the railroad and the people TO
ret together and select brand new
name which was not so indescrimi-
nately distributed over the state and
the railroad system. The town IS
still Gale. and the post office Is sun
Stelrett, with mail and express pack
ages and uniformed old lady Katy
passengers being delivered to the
wrong Gale and the wrong Sterrett.

NOT POLICY OF COURTS
TO ENJOIN ELECTIONS
Would Be an interference With

tie state election officers IN prepare.
tion for a vote on the grandfather
clause at the August primaries. He
said the trend of authorities was
against invasion Of the Legislative
field and that very few cases are on
record wherein courts enjoined 'lec-
tions. The constitutional cohSen.
ton case, decided by Judge ]. II. Bur
ford, now OF counsel for the parties
seeking the injunction. was quoted as
showing the policy OF courts to alb.
staln from intervention.
Judge Cotteral said that II the CON
tentions Of counsel for the paintifr,
Daniel Sims. colored, are true, flag
rant violation of the constitution Of
tht United States and Of the state OF
Oklahoma is In contemplation. He
said the compacts with the govern
ment are binding.
Court Lacking In Power
Judge Cotleral indicated that II
the case were properly brought be-
fore him he would pass on the main
question. He said that SO far rs this
court Is concerned the constitution
OF the United states Ia supreme. He
found the court lacking IN power to
cnjoin the proposed election for the
reason that the people are acting dl.
rcctly on the proposition. He said
tnat II the proposition should curry
ard the grandfather clause" be
adopted, each colored man disFran.
chised would have cause OF action
against every election officer In the
state. This clause appeared to be
such a one as would dlsfranchise col.
ored persons and no others. Counsel
for the plaintiff contended that the
plaintiff was without remedy aod
therefore applied for Injunction.
Arguments Closed This Morning
The arguments on the case were
closed about II O'Clock The argu-
ments for the election board, which
