CAMELS OF THE ARABS.
Various Ways the Desert Nomads Use

Nearly 10000 camals are used in the
den, and with donkeys they form the
only means of carrying goods to in
land points. For q common burden

trotters, or swift messenger camels,
are worth more. A young camel can
sometimes be had about Bagdad for
as little as So or 81.
Besides its use for riding and carry

depend on the camel for milk. Shoes
are made from its tough. calloused

CRUCE MAY CALL
SPECIAL SESSION
If Congress Passes Reapportionmen
Bill 1t Will Necessitate Session
of State Legislature.

Oklahoma City, May 23.-Members
of the Oklahoma legislature believe
Governor Cruce will call a special ses.
sion during next fall or winter if con.
gress passes an apportionment bill, as
now seems likely. Private letters from
congressman say that the senate will
pass the house bill, while letters from
senators indicate that the bill passed
will differ from the one the house has
sent over. In either event Oklahoma
is looking for an increase of two or
three members of the lower house
Republicans in the senate, however
appear, according to the letters, to
favor an apportionment which will not
increase the size of the house to a
great degree.
IF congress passes the bill it seems
that an extra session of the Oklahoma
legislature will be necessary" said
Senator C. B. Kendrick of Davis, "for
as | understand the pending measure
it provides that if the state is not re-
districted in accordance with the mum
Der each state is to have, the excess
members shall be elected from the
state at large. In either event it will
be necessary to provide for such an
election in 1912"
Another possible reason for an extra
session, some members of the legisla-
ture believe, is the chance that the SUI
preme court of the United States sus-
tains the decision of the Oklahoma
court on the demurrer in the capital
removal controversy. It would then
be up to Oklahoma City to begin oper-
ations with a view of gathering the
promised s1,00O,00O for the so-ealled
free state house, and make periodical
payments to the state.
1t is believed further legislation IS
necessary in order to make such trans
actions LEGAL and binding, and, to des-
ignate a board or branch Of the state
government to receive and disburse
the money.
Some Of the members are drifting
back to the idea of state capitol com
mission. while the administration fav-
ors placing the matter in the hands
of the state board Of affairs, and per-
hitting the board to name assistants
individually in charge of the work, un-
der the boards supervision

the nature of a cash contribution just

having come to Vinita, Okla, last win

On March 10, 1872, he was married
to Miss Amanda Brown and for more
than thirty-nine years they lived to-
gether in an ideal welded life. To
them four children were born: DR..
Wallace Roberts, Philadelphia, Pa;
Mrs. T. E. Englehart, Vinita, Okla;

Brother Roberts was only Ga years

A keen observer of business condi-
tions is authority for the statement
that nearly every moderate sized town
and village in the central states actual.
ly needs houses to quarter its people.
The boom in far distant land schemes
now on the wane, has taken money
away from home, the westerner invest
ing in the east and the easterner in the
west There is a lure about things
distant that the average man finds ii
hard to resist. Distance lends en-
chantment," especially when properly
played up by the skilful advertising
writer working for an ingenious land
promoter
No one can deny the wisdom of land
investments when the investor buys
land for a home for cultivation and
actual development But much of the
money placed in circulation by land
schemes during the last two or three
years has gone into property which
the buyer knew nothing aoout beyond
what he read in a prospectus. This
sort of investment" as a rule, is gone
forever and the experience is expen-
sive.
Now that the land man has harvested
his crop it is time for every community
to get back to first principle, to de-
velop the home place, to build houses
and improve the farms and promote
the welfare of the home community
To do all this there viii be no bet
ter time than the present Money is
plentiful Invested in a home it can
get away Put into farm Improvements
it win return dividends. Truly
there's no place like home" when it
comes to laying by safety The savings
that are to provide for a rainy day
Every move that tends to make the
homo community better is q move iu

The town mas reason to feel unsafe

JUDGE
REFUSES TO QUASH
cotteral Declares Grandfather Clause
Observation-Disclosures Campbell
Sustains Demurrer.

Oklahoma City, May 23. = The
grandfather clause" amendment to
the Oklahoma constitution was de
elared to be in conflict with the fif
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States, by United States
Judge John H. Cotteral, yesterday in
decision overruling demurrers to in.
dictments in four election cases in
western Oklahoma
Willard Smith and D. w. Jeffries OF
Seward, Logan county, and Frank
Quinn and J. j. Beall of Hennessey,
Kingfisher county, were given until the
first Monday in June to plead to in.
dictments charging them with conspir.
ing to injure negro citizens in the
exercise of their right. The power to
give the right to vote, said the court
was not given to the federal govern.
ment, but the state were prohibited
from discriminating against citizens
by the fifteenth amendment, which de.
clared that the right to vote should
not be denied to any person because OF
race, color, or previous condition OF
servitude.
1t was inevitable, said Judge Cot
teral, that the grandfather clause
would fall by that test There was no
contention, the court continued, that
the imposition of an educational test
was a restriction of suffrage right
Here the requirement was that voters
should read and write.
But this educational test was exact
ed of some and not of others. To make
the subjection of individuals to the
educational test dependent on their
condition before 1866 would make it
dependent on their race and color
Judge Cotteral declared.
The court held it a significant fact
that the date adopted for a dividing
line was prior to the adoption of the
hAlSSnlu dLnSuuLuSuC. IL Was observed
that the federal constitution still oper-
ates to prevent any state from discrim-
mating against citizens because of race
and color
Judge Cotteral declared the grand
father clause" did indirectly what could
not be done directly, and that should
it be permitted, the country would
soon get away from the foundation
principles of it's government
Judge Cotteral's opinion is some
10000 words in length and goes deep
ly into the legislative and judicial his
tory of suffrage acts and suffrage re-
strictions
