court Claims ROAD
BONDS ARE ILLEGAL
GRADY COUNTY JUDGE HOLDS
ISSUE IN THAT COUNTY TO BE
UNCONSTITUTIONA

The action of the Oklahoma county
commissioners Wednesday in annull-
ing the order for an election in that
county to vote s1.250.OOO good road
bonds, will probably have some ef-
feet on the 100000 bond issue re-
Gently voted In Tulsa county.
The Oklahoma county commission
crs gave as their reason for declaring
the election off, the possibility of
the law providing for bond issues to
construct county roads being declared
unconstitutional. The law has already
been declared unconstitutional by the
district court of Grady county.
Tulsa county was the first county
in the state to vote good road bonds
under this law, which allows the
splitting Of a county into road dis
tricts and improving the roads dis
trict at a time. 1t was largely through
the efforts of c. II. Cleveland, of
Tulsa county, and a former county
commissioner, that this law was
passed by the legislature. and he has
repeatedly expressed himself as salts
fled with the constitutionality of the
act.
The Tulsa county issue has been
sold and the attorneys for the bond
buying company are now looking up
the legal status of affairs. Until the
supreme court Of the, state passes on
the Grady county decision 1t will be
hard to determine the legality or IL
legality of this law.

INJUNCTION ON
RATE REDUCTION
SPOKANE CASES RELATIVE TO
TRANsCoNTINENTAL FREIGHr
ARE DELAYED.
Was EFFECTIVE WEDNESDAY
Order Was Issued Last Summcr-No
Definite Finding for Several
Months Is Outlook.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-EXpected
reduction OF transcontinental railroad
freight rates was held up today when
the court of commerce granted a tenn
porary injunction against the order
Of the interstate commerce commits
sion In what popularly are known as
the Spokane rate cases, The order
was made June 22, and was to have
become effective next Wednesday,
The cases invoke not only the ''act"
In freight rates from Spokane and
other lnter-mountain points to Pacific
coast terminals, but also the appllca-
ton of the long and short haul pro-
vision of the existing law.
The order was to reduce the rates
Rocky mountain destination. The
transcontlnental railways appealed to
the commerce court, maintaining that
the order was practically conflscatory
Late today the court issued the
order granting the preliminary in
junction and suspending the opera
tion of the order issued by the COM
mission. The courts finding leaves
the transcontinental situation as 1t is.
In the opinion of members of the
interstate commerce commission, the
most important feature Of the In
junction is the courts sustaining OF
thee ommission's action respecting the
long and short haul provision Of the
existing law. Information given the
court is that It proposes to make an
investigation Of the facts on which
the order of the commission was
based to determine for itself a basis
for final order.
1t is said the cases will not be de-
termined by the commerce court for
several months and that the contro-
versies will be carried TO the United
States supreme court.

S0U|RES ACQUITTED
OF Horse Stealing
WAS CHARGED WITH HAVING
TAKEN TEAM FROM PICNIC
Al BIXBY IN AUGUST.

True TO the predictions Of every one
who had heard the evidence in the
case, the jury in the case Of Usage
Squire, young Indian who was
charged with stealing u team Of horses
returned u verdict at o'clock last
night Of not guilty. The jury was
only absent from the court room ten
minutes and reached tho verdict on
the first ballot.
Squire. OF was alleged drove off
with team belonging to two other
Indians one day last August at Bixby.
during the progress of u picnic. He
was arrested about ten days later with
the team in Sapulpa. Squires defense
was that he had borrowed the team
with the consent of the owners.
The weakness of the prosecutions
case was apparent when two of the
principal witnesses took tho stand In
state of semi-intoXication and told
conflicting stories and when the third
witness, Il young Indian woman, re-
fused to answer any questions, pre-
tending that she did not speak En-
glish. When the county attorney
asked her a question, she looked
straight ahead and made out as
though she did not hear The court
in questioning her, made 1t clear that
she did understand English, but the
attorney could not get so much as
word from her. After the trial she
was seen talking on the street in very
good English and very fluently.

OLD Residents Say
ducks NOT here YET
CLAIM THAT LATTER PART OF
MONTH Is TIME TO DO YOUR
SHOOTING.

Ho, We hunters. Here's cheering
nws. The big flights of mallards and
other wild ducks has not yet arrived
in this section of the state, according
to the old residents Of Tulsa.
II mind" said one of these old
timers yesterday ''how four years ago
there was big flight of mallards and
blackjack over in the Verdigris bot
tom. | went out one mornin' about
10 O'Clock, and the day was so bad
| beat everybody else to a little lake
over in the woods, just about due
west of Wagoner.
We'll, sir, / never saw so many
critters on one little pond-hole in all
my life. There was ducks and ducks,
and few geese. Now, the edge grass
and cattails was so thick around the
sides OF the pond that / just couldn't
get a good shot at the ducks. So /
club up in persimmon tree, thinking
to shoot down on 'em.
when / was about six or eight feet
off the ground, i stepped on a limb
that hung out over the water. 1t
broke. and / and my gun went in as
far as any mortal and a shooting iron
could. The ducks raised up, of
course, and ! poured the water out of
the barrel, shot twice, and got more
ducks than | could carry home"
This is supposed to be true story,
as man who never told lie in his
life, that anybody knows about, told
II in Muskogee couple Of years ago.
The big flight of wild fowl did not
come over for the south until the last
week in November last year, and 1t
was about the 10th that they arrived
