east corner of Division street and

planned by them will cost not less

TAXES AND FEE SYSTEM
WILL Be CONSIDERED
0iher Subjects for Legislation
to Be Submitted IN Special
Message

Governor Haskell today issued a
call convening the Second Legislative
assembly in special session on Jan
nary 20. The tax question and a
change in the present fee system for
county officials are the only legisla-
tive subjects broached in the call,
but the governor indicates that other
matters may be submitted in spe-
cial message for legislative consider
alton. The governors proclamation
Is as follows
PROCLAMATION.
The administration of the affairs OF
government of our state, its counties
and other subdivisions, the mainten-
ance OF our educational system, of our
penal and other institutions, the public
improvements and enforcement OF
laws, necessitate the leyylng of taxes
and raising of revenues from various
sources, and in the conduct of govern
ment, state and local, the compensat-
ing of many public officers.
No office can be conducted with
efficiency and economy, unless men OF
sufficient experience and education
are employed and we must be mind
fnl OF the fact that every capable Of
ficer Is entitled to be fairly paid for
the service performed.
Our present state laws. fixing the
fees and salaries OF most Of our county
and other public officials were passed
by the Oklahoma Territorial Legisla
ture, several years before the state
was organized and are still operative
But unfortunately we find the various
laws on the subject Of fees and sal
aries of officials so complicated
chaotic and indefinite as to make !,
impossible to determine their rea
meaning and application, and there
fore the county attorneys, as well as
others learned In the law in the state
find 1t utterly impossible to harmonize
in the construction and application o'
these laws, and after two years ex
perjepce In state government, there
is no uniform practice arrived at anu
no certainty as to the real meaning o.
the laws governing official fees ant
compensation. And this controversy
can only be brought to an end bS
legislative action, making definite an'
certain what public officers may just!
receive for their service.
| believe that the law should be Sc
amended that every county oftlee'
would have his compensation fixed a
a fair living salary and that all offices
that receive fees from the public fol
services rendered should be required

An ENDLESS CHAIN PROBLEM

Chicago, Jan. 13-Coal miners
throughout the United States are pre-
pairing for the reopening Of the ques-
ton of wages after Jan. 20, and a de-
mand for increased pay is expected.
1t may cause marked advance in
the present prices OF coal.
The stand taken by the miners that
they need higher wages on account OF
tie increased cost of living comes as
a parL of the general movement of
organized labor, begun by the switch
men and railroad brotherhoods. The
movement has already spread includ-
ing practically all of the branches of
railroad labor.

the frauds that marked yesterday
primaries in Chicago, despite the ex'
traordinary precautions of the election
board. Hundreds of complains swamp
ed the commissioners.
While thmere was little violence
and no rioting, several arrests were
made on charges Of bribery or repeat
ing.
Judge George A. Dupuy of the su-
perior court was selected for a VIC
tim in one of the most successful
frauds of the day. When the jurist
reached his polling place, the books
showed that another man had voted
in his name. When Judge Dupuy ar
rived at the polls and was told that
some one had voted in his name, he
insisted on his right to cast a ballot.
Appeal was made to the election
board and his ballot was accepted.

LADD OBJECTS TO FEEDING
SLAUGH1ERH0USE REFUSE TO
HOGS ABOUT TO Be KILLED

In the latest bulletin OF the state
pure food department, Prof. Ladd
says:
The question is asked whether or
not 1t is permissible, under the SAM.
tary inspection law and the food law
OF the state, to feed slaughterhouse
refuse to hogs in and about the slaugh-
terhOuse. This may be considered a
question which must be determined by
the courts in accordance with the evil
dence submitted in the particular
case. But on general principles the
department believes that the feeding
of slaughterhouse waste to hogs should
be discouraged, and that the same is
to be classed in violation Of the spirit,
II not of the exact words, Of both
food and sanitary inspection laws, un-
less the products are first cooked and
fed while in good condition.
BY the feeding of slaughterhouse
waste to flock of growing pigs and
hogs there is great likelihood Of in
