Probably BE Taken.

SPECIAL Judge Warren y. Abbot, de-
cided late yesterday afternoon that
the County Commission should pay
the salary Of Clerk Of the Superior
Court NJ y. Cline. The attorneys fin
ishcd arguments in the case at $3.50
O'Clock. and Immediately Judge Alb
bot gave his decision.
For probably twenty minutes Judge
Abbot talked about the case, thor
oughly discussing the matter from
every point. lie said that the entire
matter rested on the Interpretation
placed ON the act OF the Legislature
authorizing Superior Courts in Ok
lahoma.
The attorneys for the County Com
missloners raised the point that under
the statute, the terms Of all Superior
judges in oklahoma expired on Jan
uary 9, and that as Mr.. Breckenridge
was appointed on January 7, he could
serve only until January 0, when his
office became vacant
Judge Abbot interpreted the law TO
mean that in cases of the kind such
rs this one represents, that whore II
was not known until it was too late
to have an election to select super
for judge, that the governor should
appoint one, and that his term OF
office should extend for four years
or until 1914.

The result OF the entire case rested
entirely on whether Judge Brecken-
ridge was the legal judge of the SUI
perior Court, because If he was, II
would follow that his appointee Mr.,
cline as clerk, which power Of APP
pointment was expressly given him
by the statute creating the office OF
superior judge, would be the de
focto, as well as de jure, office. and as
such should be entitled to pay from
the county,
Whether the County Commissioners
will take an appeal from the decision
of Judge Abbot TO the State Supreme
Court Is not known, but II Is prob
able that they VIII do so In order TO
be consistent with their former ac-
tion in the case Of the salary of Judge
Breckenridge, IN which Judge poe, of
the District Court, ordered the
County Commissioners to pay the sal
airy of Judge Breckenridge.
This case which is an appeal from
the decision OF the board Of County
Commissioners who refused to allow
the claim of NJ. r., Cline, for salary
for the months Of April, May, June
and July as clerk Of the Superior
Court, was started last Friday.
Last Saturday morning Judge
Breckenridge, who was the judge to
Try the case, disqualified himself and
the attorneys for the opposing sides
selected W, d. Abbot as judge. It was
decided then to submit an agreed
statement Of facts.
This statements of facts was drawn
up and presented to the court shortly
before noon yesterday, and at 1880
Attorney Davidson, appeared for his
client, Mr. Cline.
The case soon developed into what
was the proper Interpretation of the
statute which created the office of
superior judge.
The ground gone over was pracu-
cally the same as that IN the appeal
ed case of Judge Breckenridge, heard
few weeks ago by Judge Poe,
Judge Hainer who represented the
County Commissioners together with
County Attorney Pat Malloy, follow
ed Mr. Davidson in the arguments,
with Mr.. Malloy really taking no act
ual part in the case, he frankly say
ing that he believed the County Com
missioners had acted wrongfully in
the matter
Judge Hainer bitterly attacked the
jurisdiction of the court to try the
case on the grounds that the case at
tackled the legal existence of the Su-
perior Court and that another case
vas then pending in the District
Court to determine the legal court on
quo warranto proceedings against
Judge League, the other claimant for
the office.
Judge Hainer irtimated that this
would be his strong point on an ap-
peal to the state Supreme Court, and
he personally invited Mr.. Davidson
and Judge Breckenridge to meet him
before the Supreme Court IN the ar
gument of the case.

Caring for m

There are now four special methods
by which consumptive workingmen in
the United States are being cared for.
In such cities as Albany, Elmira and
B~inghamton, N. ", the unions support
a separate pavilion or hospital. In
cities like Hartford, New Britain and
South Manchester, Conn, the work
men contribute towards the mainte-
nance Of a fund for the care of con-
sumptiyes. The employers also con-
tribute to these funds. There are also
two national s%anatoria for the treat
ment of tuberculosis owned and oper-
ated by labor unions; one by the IN
ternational Typographical union, and
the other by the Printing PressmRu
and Assistants union. In Massachu'
sets, Illinois and elsewhere large cor
poratlons and manufacturers have
agreed voluntarily to care for all theil
cdhsumptlve employees for a limited
length Of time.
