Final Arguments Are Made in Capl-

By Associated Press

law, Section 81 OF the constitution,
prohibiting the piping OF natural gas
out OF that state. was declared un-
constitutional by Judge Walter Sand
born. Of the United States Circuit
Court OF Appeals for the Eighth Ju-
diclal Circuit in decision handed
down late today.
An injunction obtained from the
United States Circuit Court from the
Eastern District OF Oklahoma. and by
w f. Cowhan or Michigan, was sus-
tained and made permanent and pre-
vents Interference by the oklahoma
officials with the piping of natural
gas to other states.

tempts by state officials to enforce

Capital Case IL Argued.
Washington, April 7.-Legal argu-
ments as to the respective claims Of
Oklahoma City and Guthrie for the
retention fthe seat OF state govern
ment We're concluded in the Supreme
Court last evening. Judges Frank
Dale, John II. Burford and Attorney
c. G.. Horner presented the claims Of
Guthrie, contending that the enabling
act, fixing the oklahoma state capi-
tai at Guthrie until 1918. was bind
Ing upon the state, an dthat the enab-
ling act was valid at least until 1913,
as specified. in regard to the location
OF the temporary capital and that
the oklahoma legislature had no pow
er to annul the capital provision of
the enabling act.
II was also pointed out that II the
decision of the state Supreme Court
declaring the provision of the en-
ablng act null and void, should stand
then. by the same token. the people
OF Utah wero not bound by their sol
emn pact which forever prohibited
polygamy In that state.
Judge Burwell of oklahoma city,
who followed Mr.. Horner, declared
the only question involved was the
right OF congress to invade a states
rights by imposing restrictions on the
Inhabitants OF such state. Senator
Bailey Of Texas followed Judge Bur-
well in n 35-minute presentation of
the claims OF oklahoma City and
pointed out that q long chain of de-
cislons Of the supreme court indi-
catod that any Beeming difference
that had arisen In the capital loca-
tlon case had been set aside by former
decisions. He cited an Alabama land
case and the late decision of case
from Missouri wherein a railroad
company had sued for immunity from
taxation after the admission Of state
hood, in which, as territory It had
paid no taxes Justice Brewer held
that the state had right to tax the
company after admission into the
union
Chief Justice White interrupted
Senator Bailey to lnterject:
"You must admit that when a state
comes into the union that II comes IN
with certaIn restrictions. "
Senator Bailey admitted that II did
but stated that the state Immediately
assumed the right OF sovereign state
and that II was master of Its own in
ternal organization.
