AN ATTACK ON CARDS.
birmingham Ledger.)


"A LADY, in the lead of the purity
movement way out west wants to
abolish card playing. She is right
and she is wrong. 1t is human to be
that way. Human beinef are good
and bad at the same time, none being
all good and thank God, none are all
bad When God chose friends among
men he did not in a single instance e.,
unless it be ST. John the Divine,
choose a perfect man. Not Moses, nor
| Isaac, nor Jacob, were perfect. Nei-
tder was job a perfect man, nor was
| Peter. He chose men in whom the
double thread, the good and the bad,
were both plainly evident even when
pictured to us by friendly writer's.
This is preliminary to saying that
one might as we'll condemn houses
because much sin and wickedness is
committed in them, as to condemn
little pasteboard parallelograms be-
| cause some men and even some Wo-
men gamble with them. 1t is right
for. Mrs. A. 3D. Sims, of the puritW
band, to condemn gambling. There is
no defender of that evil, as old as
our race. Gambling is wrong, but
cards are not The pictured paste
boards furnish a great deal of inno-
cent amusement.
Mrs. Sims aims her attack largely
at THE woman who plays bridge
| whist" There again she is right and
she is wrong. Where women waste
| time that should be devoted to bet
ter things they do wrong; where wo-
men play for money they do wrong.
When women play cards for recrea-
ton after the cares and annoyances
of daily duties, they do right. Recraa-
ton and pleasure are as essential as
duties and cares.
1t is very well to let women manage
their work and recreation as they
please. They have done lit right well
for several thousand years. 1t is also
andvery we'll to have "a Mrs. Sims, or y
Sam Jones occasionally to stir society
and call back the erring ones and to
make plain the path between right
and wrong.

FOOTBALL AND THE PSYCHIC
CHEER.

lat last even football is being invad-
ed L,- psychic science. according to
the reports from Northern gridirons.
The captain of the Dartmouth fooc-
ball team is reported to have changed
the recent defeat of his team by Har-
ward to the psychic cheer of all the
Crimson's men in the universe, which
made the Harvard eleven an easy vic
tor over It's opponent.
AIT first glance one may easily see
these reports will furnish the para
grapher tand the humorous versifier
with a rich fund of material for ply
ing their trade. The connection be-
tween the psychic cheer of Harvard
and the defeat of Dartmouth will not
be readily seen by the average reader,
who viii enjoy hugely the fun poked
sit those who are giving interviews
(or are reported as giving interyiews)
on this new phase of psychic pre-
nomena.
But the student or observer of the
tremendous influence which is being
exerted ON modern civilization by the
study cf psychic science is being ex-
erted on modern civilization by the
study of psychic science will be inter
asted in this as in all real or suppos-
ed phenomena of this kind After all
what is there so strange about the So
called psychic cheer? How does It
differ from a concerted wish for vic
DRY on the part of a given football
team and it's supporters, for in
stance?
1t has been a commonplace explain
alton of TIE remarkable success that
has attended the Yale football eleven
for mant' years, prior to the present
one, that the Yale players and the
college students and supporters have
so unitedly and confidently worked for
success that no other result crowned
their efforts for many years. There
have been divisions and disagree

players this season, with the result
THAT the football team Is considered
the most disappointing in decade.
On the other hand, it Is said that
the captain of the Harvard team has
asked all the Crimson supporters ey-
Ierywhere to send mp psychic cheer
for the team to defeat Yale. Has the
campaign for success by thinking and
talking success departed from the
Yale supporters? If it has, then per-
haps Harvard is adopting tie methods
of it's ancient enemy The quality OF
the men who play and the training
each has received will determine mat
tiers. more thany anything else. says
the football expert. Maybe next Sat
urday will give us new light on the
psychic cheer.

M'GUIRE RECEIVES
THREATENING LETTER

Washington, Mar. s. = Representa-
tive B. S. Mcclure of Oklahoma re-
ceived from Oklahoma Monday a let.
ter and telegram threatening his life
because of his activity in behalf of
negro claimants to enrolment in the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations. Mr..
Mcclure recently introduced a bill
transferring several thousand negroes
from the freedmen roll to the Indian
roll. An unsuccessful effort to do
this has been made in the courts. En-
rolled or freedmen, the negroes will
receive forty acres of land each. If
transferred to the Indian roll their in
dividual allotments would be 32O
acres. The telegram was dated Nor
man and signed Citizen" 1t read:
THE Chickasaw people are being
outraged by your position on the
negro question. If the bill passes it
will be healthier in Africa for YOU"
Ine letter, which was from Ard
more, was as follows
I'VE, the people of the Chickasaw
Nation, demand that you and your
lawyer quit fooling. Haven't you
sense enough to know that we made
a treaty with Uncle Sam ten years
ago about this negro proposition and
that was all they asked? The people
are not going to stand for this bill.
Furthermore, we want you and your
lawyer to know that if the bill you
have presented goes through it means
an end to your lives. You know the
feeling of the Indians. Now you bet
ter give this your strict attention, for
people of Choctaw and Chickasaw
blood will murder you on sight"
The letter was not signed. Nj.
Mcclure said last night he would pay
no attention to the threats.

GOVERNOR vETOES
ELECTION BILL
Five Reasons Given For Chief Execu-
tlve's Act in vetoing Taylor
Election Bill.

Guthrie, Okla, Mar. s. - For five
reasons, Governor Haskell Monday We
toed the Taylor election procedure
bill, senate bill No. 81, prescribing the
procedure for submitting and voting
on proposed amendments to the con-
stitution. His reasons for disapproval
are as follows:
The bill provides that the ballot
title must be drawn by the party pro-
posing the amendment, and, further,
requires the attorney general to de-
fend the title should an appeal be
taken from the title, thus leaving the
way open for the preparation of a
pre1udiced title; it provides that the
election board shall designate the
place on the ballot for the amend
ment title, which shall not exceed in
length one hundred words, concluding
with the words, for the amendment"
which must be in the same sized type
and not distinguished in any way.
The governor submits that such a
privilege to the election board would
be legislative power and that the
voter would have no way of distin-
gushing the particular three words
mentioned because of their not being
separated from the ballot title.
The secretary of state should be re-
quired to cause publication of the
filing of any initiated petition, and the
date when the time for filing protests
shall elapse.
Permission is denied any person to
have or print samples of the proposed
ballot and that is depriving newspa-
pers and voters OF a campaign of
on the subject of properly
voting for or against the amendment.
The governor believes the chief ex-
ecutive should be permitted to retain
the same official duties as are now
in regard to the submission
of bill or amendments.
