Oklahoma City. July 12.-All ques-
ion as to the passage by the legislature
of the tax ferret" law of May. 1908,
was set at rest by the supreme court
Tuesday in an opinion by Justice Tur-
ner affirming the superior court of
Logan county in the case of Elizabeth
McNeal VS.. Fred w. Ritterbush. treas
urer of Logan county.
The plaintiff brought suit TO enjoin
the collection of back taxes under the
tax ferret" law passed by the first
legislature, alleging that the bill did
not pass the legislature, but that the
notes of the official stenographer show
ed that the bill was indefinitely post
poned. The court holds that where
the journal shows that the bill went
through the regular procedure, the
stenographic notes of official repor-
ters cannot be brought into evidence
to controvert the journal, and holds
that the bill was passed by the legis.
idluic- ne OplHNOn dlSO uOluS lndI the
act Of 1909 repeating the provisions
of the earlier act as to collection of
unpaid taxes aecruing before state
hood does not operate to bar the col
lection of back taxes levied between
the dates of the passage of the 1908
and 1909 acts.
That the act of congress of April
26, 1905, authorizing the opening of
highways through Indian allotments
in the Choctaw, .Chickasaw and Semi
mole nations does not authorize the
highway officials OF the state to open
up highways through Indian allot-
ments of those tribes who were al
lotted prior to the passage of the act
without compensation to the allottees,
is the holding of the supreme court in
an opinion by Justice Kane. The
case is that of Ed Good and JEFF Cab

UTES WILL CELEBRATE IN
THE GARDEN OF GODS

Colorado Springs, Col, July 12.-On
the spot in the Garden of the Gods
made sacred by their ancestors, the
Ute Indians from the Ute reservation,
who will be in Colorado Springs for
the big birthday carnival July 81 to
August 5, will repeat the mystic sun
dances of their tribe The dances will
be held by the historic council rock
where for hundreds of years the an
cient Utes held their big pow vows.
The Garden of the Gods, near Mani
tou the home of the Great Spirit, was
the favorite camping ground of the
Utes. All the legends of the tribe
have this picturesque place for their
scene of action and the Utes are an
ticipating with great pleasure a visit
to their former tribal home. The sun
dances once were supposed to protect
the tribe from misfortune and the mod
ern Utes keep up the practice for spe-
cial protection against the white
plague, their worst roe.
While the Indians will contribute
their share to the many attractions of
the carnival, they are looking forward
with the delight of children to seeing
the aeroplanes of the Wright Brothers
that will fly on two days of the carni-
val The "eagle men" as the redmen
style the aviators, represent to them
the last word in modern miracles. The
aviators flying about Pixies peak will
be something to open the eyes of the
Utes. The carnival will bring into
striking contrast the aboriginal life
of the west and that of-the present day
and its picturesque setting in the
shadow of Pixies peak adds the charm
of romance to the event Federal
, troops and cowboys will enhance the
color of the scene. Thousands of Col
orado pioneers will recall as never
before the old life of the plains, the
life of the scouts and Indian fighters,
now nothing but a memory. Home
coming day for former residents is at
tracing general attention and Letters
received here indicate big reunion
of old timers in this city.

The optimist and the pessimist-
The difference is droll;
The optimist sees the doughnut
The pessimist sees the hole.
AN OLD cARRET.

In a garrct old, lived little boy,
Who had things to play with, yet not
a toy
Often shadow would cross his brow
When he would look at the rusty plow.
He would slimb on the seat of an old
disc,
And would think nothing of the risk
That he was taking on this old jack.
Some times he'd fall and hurt his
back.
The falls he got would tare his shirt,
Or other times his old kilt skirt.
For things to cat, he'd cry for some,
Especially when the night would come.
He'd be awake at mornings light,
And then start out to work till night.
He'd sleep at night by the light of the
moon,
And cook his meals by the sun at noon.
The fish that he would catch on a
hook
For his small sister he would cook
He would carry away the garden truck
And do any kind of work that he
struck.
His little sister, whom he did love.
Had pet pigeon and dove.
And when the dove would try to coo,
The pigeon thought that it ought to.
Then one bright day. man who was
slim
Took the children to live with his wife
and him.
And now as you viii later see.
These children were happy as happy
could be
For these people were their father and
mother,
Then, oh! how happy, were sister and
brother.

COURT DECISION
SUSTA|NS TAX FERRET LAW

from Garyin county, which is affirmed.
An important decision to the reli-
gious and educational societies that
received grants of land in former In
dian Territory from the tribes before
the lands were allotted in severalty
was given by the supreme court
in an opinion by Justice Hayes.
The American Baptist Home Mis-
sion Society in 1880 acquired title
from the tribe to 1912 acres of land
in the Creek nation near Muskogee,
to be used for educational purposes
and erected a school building upon
it at a cost of $4,000, known as Ba-
con university. Under an act of con-
gress approved March /, 1901, which
provided that all such lands except
forty acres were to be opened for al
lotment, the land was allotted to
Quentin Garrett, Creek Indian The
society brought suit against the In
dian to recover possession of the land
and won in the district court of Mus
kogee county. The lower court is
affirmed in the opinion, which holds
that the mission society acquired a
vested right to the land which could
not be disturbed by subsequent act
of congress.

MARTIAL LAW WILL
PREVAIL IN HOUSE
Until Lost Pass Key is Found All Per
sons Entering House After Hours
Must Have Written Order.

Washington, p. c., July IL. = The
pass key which unocks all the offices
in the house Office building and which
is an open sesame to legislative secrets
has been stolen. Martial law is prac-
'tically in force at the building.
The loss was discovered Monday
night. They key disappeared from
police headquarters. AS soon as its
absence was discovered additional
guards were placed about the building
and especially around the rooms of
the several investigating committees.
II is said that several members of
the house had difficulty in passing the
suspicious guards. Stokes Jackson, the
.sergeant-at-arms issued a letter last
night which explain the seriousness of
the situation. 1t was sent to every
member of the house and reads:
Il have issued an order that after
o'clock in the evening no person will
be allowed to enter or leave the build
ING except upon written order OF
some member One not personally
known to the guards or the door will
be stopped, and unless a member or
the secretary of member, or hold
Ing written permission from a mem
ber, he will not be allowed to enter
the building. If in the building he
will be detained until inquiry as to his
BUSINESS and the occasion for his pres
ence in the building can be ascertain
ed"
Unless the stolen key is recovered
it will necessitate changing every lock
in the house Office building, or the con-
stant guarding of the building to see
that no outsider who has possession
of the key is permitted to enter. The
locks. and there are nearly thousand
of them, probably will be ordered
changed within the next forty-eight
hours unless the missing key is re-
turned

Lowry said his company did not re-
ceive an allowance for lighterage in
New York harbor as the sugar trust"
does. Mr.. Lowry will continue his tes-
timony today.
Frank L, Neole, Philadelphia ship
ping agent, testified that while uni
form rates are in operation, big con-
Germs with inside information" about
intended changes in rates, or which re-
ceiye advantage in the shape of dray-
age, put smaller dealers under hand
leap
Rates are so complicated" said he,
that big concern like the American
Sugar Refining company must employ
a rate expert at $4,000 year to work
out rates, or all of its directors would
go to Jail for violating the interstate
commerce commission laws"
Representative Fordney of Michigan
expressed an opinion that any wide
awake man would know about pro-
posed changes in rates.
YES" added Representative Baker
of California, "the same kind of wide
awake fellows have been cheating the
public for twenty or twenty-five years.
