The Tulsa County grand jury Is now
thing of tho past. After investi-
eating law violations In Tulsa County
for fifteen days, the probe came to
an end yesterday aft9 9noon at
o'clock, when the jury adjourned and
reported to District Judge l.. NJ. Poe
that they had returned 107 indict-
ments.
Something over two hundred wit
nesses were examined during the fif-
teen days Of the investigation, a very
small percentage Of whom volunteer
ed their services.
That most Of the indictments re-
turned were for tho violations Of the
liquor and gambling laws, is general
ly believed. According to the report
Of the grand jury, filed In the Dis
trict Court the time of the grand Jury
has practically been consumed in in
yestgatlng the violations of the IL
quor and gambling laws and the con-
duct OF tho officers Of the various
municipalities Of the county and of
the county officers with reference to
the enforcement Of these laws"
Such things as prize fights have
never been held In Tulsa, according
to the grand Jury report. A few
friendly boxing bouts have been held,
but the grand jury believed that the
zeal of the city and county officers
would have prevented these bouts hal
they been in violation of the law.
As to the charge Of the court.
along the lines OF carrying concealed
weapons. the grand jury reported
that they could not secure any evil
dence sufficient to indiet any one for
carrying weapon. THE suppress
sion of this vice depends upon the
zeal of the city and county officers
In discovering such evidence
Arson, kidnapping, eXtorton, brlb-
cry ana horse stealing We're among
the crimes investigated by the jury
but In not a single instance did they
find sufficient evidence to warrant
indictments being returned.
The charges that have been made
against officials of the county and
of the various municipalities through
out the county were investigated and
the Jury found that only In the towns
of BiXby and Owasso had the Off
cials been derelict IN their duty.
Accusations were drawn w and pre-

RELIGION IN SCHOOLS.

from E0ucatlOn.
The recognition Of "a power outside
ourselves which makes for righteous
ness" and which is called by the name
Of God, is not sectarfan. It belongs TO
all religions. and seems inherent IN the
nature of mankind. To teoch the chill
dren to listen to the voice Of conscience
Gods vicegerent in the souD-to re
spond to the call Of duty cstern daughter
Of the voice of GOd'')-is q task which
the school must not ignore Such teaching
is nothing else than religious teaching"
Whether or not any form OF worship Is
observed, the idea and the name OF G0d
cannot be excluded from the echoolreona.
Literature is full OF II. and no one can
teach history, literature or natural
science effectively without standing rev.
erently in the presence of this universal
God-idea.
Still more must the obligations Of man
to one another be freely taught In the
schoolroom; and though by some this T.
called morals it is nevertheless the half.
OF religion, and in its practical aspects
perhaps the larger half.
To forbid all systematic" attempts to
morals in the school is violation Of
the principle Of freedom in method which
is needful to the highest efficiency In
teaching. While 1t Is undoubtedly true
that more will be done by indirect means
Through the personal character Of the
teacher and the general atmosphero OF
the school than can be accomplished by
precept or stated lessons. yet II % Sooiieh,
