In Oklahoma.

14awton. Ok.-One of the wealthiest
and most picturesque American In
dians passed away recently here, in

hunted, and was accustomed to tell
with pride how when it was proposed
to sell certain Comanche lands for
$3.50 an acre. his protest TO the col
prompt promise that the price should
not be under IS an acre.
Parker had completely mastered an
appetite for strong drink and he de-
spised gambling a vice to which great
numbers of his people were addicted
The chief was the son of white
woman, Cynthia Ann Parker daugh-
ter of Gen. Isaac Parker, disun-

WORKERS ACT SURE TO Pass
Assembly Approves Bill by a Large
MajoritY-Goes Back to Senate
for Final Action.

Madison.-Just two years from the
time the 1909 legislature decided to
bring about the investigation of work
accidents with a view to enacting
a workmen's compensation law at
later date, the assembly concurred in
the senate bill
The final vote of the assembly was
Go to IS. The social democrats voted
solidly for the measure. Only twelve
of the thirty-nine democrats voted
against it. William A. Kay Of Pierce
county was the only Republican who
voted mo on the final roll call.
The bill as passed in the assembly
now goes back to the senate which
must concur in the Legislative in
tent" section inserted by the assem-
bly,. Gov. McGovern will sign the
measure Immediately upon it's final
passage.
The Workmen's compensation act
creates a new optional contractual re-
lation between employers and en-
ployes, by which they agree upon
payment of specified amounts in case
Of injury or death. Briefly, these
amounts are:
For injury-65 per cent of wages
during period of total disablement.
For death-Four times the annual
wage with maximum of $4,000 and
minimum of $1,000 when total de-
pendents survive.
When the injury does not disable
the employe SO as to prevent his
working, he is to receive 65 per cent
of his loss in wages.
When partial dependents survive
a deceased employee, these partial de-
pendents are to receive four times
G5 per cent of the annual amount
devoted to the partial dependents
before the death of the employe.
When the employe is totally dis
abled and so helpless as to require
the services of nurse, the weekly
compensation is to be 100 per cent
of his wages for three months. At
the end of three months it is to drop
to IS per cent.

Original Bill Prohibited Operation of
Saloons Within Five Miles of State
Univer SUPERINTENDENT Setting
One-Mile Limit Also Loses.

Madison. = Madison must work
out it's own salvation and the uni
versity's salvation. That was the
decision of the assembly when it
turned down by decisive votes the
Axel Johnson bill and all the amend
ments seeking to create a "dry'' zone
around the state university.
The original question came up on
the Johnson bill to create a five
mile dry zone around the univer-
sity and a one-mile zone" around
every normal shool When this bill
came up, Mr.. Johnson offered an
amendment excepting the normal
school provision and creating only a
one-mile zone around the university
At the same time, Mr.. Ellingston Of
fered an amendment for a fve-mile
zone.
The university regents, in the
meantime, had recommended the one
mile limit. This latter limit would
have wiped out all the six saloons in
State street and several other popu-
lar student meeting places.
When it came time to vote on the
one-mile limit, it went down by vote
of 81 to 81. Then came the vote on
the five-mile limit. 1t also went to
death by vote of IS to %.

RECALL ADOPTED IN SENATE
Resolution Providing for a Constitu.
:ionaI Amendment Affects All the
State Officers Except Judges.

Madison. a heated discus
sion lasting over two hours in which
the social democrats were bitterly
attacked after they had assailed the
judiciary of the state, the senate, by
vote of 20 to Z, adopted the reso-
tuition introduced by the committee on
judiciary providing for a constitution
al amendment for the recall of all
state officers except judges.
The resolution as originally intro
duced by Senator Husting included
the judiciary, but it was due to the
fact that the social democrats favored
this provision and the warning given
by their political opponents regarding
what would happen should this pro-
vision be included, that undoubtedly
secured the passage of the substitute.

CORN SYRUP BILL is KILLED
Label of "Gucose" Causes Hot
Debate in the Assembly.

Madison.-FolloWing long de-
bate in which it was charged that
the press of the state had been sub
sidized, that the Standard Oil COM
pany was behind the bill and that
the highest paid lobby ever behind
bill' had been present at Madison,
the assembly killed the bill authoriz-
ing the sale of corn syrup without
the label of GLUCOSE"
When an attempt was made to
have action deferred so that a pub
lie hearing could be held, a cry of
vote was heard from all parts of
the house. The assembly suspend
ell the rules and a call of the house
was ordered. This was raised II to
Is after a motion to reconsider the
vote by which the bill was killed
had been voted down.
Assemblyman Perry, who intro
duced the bill, declared when the
bill was brought up, the sole ques-
ton was whether or not the product
was injurious. Whether the Stand
ard Oil company was or was not
behind the bill was immaterial, he
declared, as the members should con-
slider the measure only from the
standpoint of public health.
Assemblymen Gettle, Long, Har-
per and Schwalbach spoke against
the bill. Gettle charged that the
state press had been subsidized by
New York concern, while Long de-
clared that foods should not be per-
mitted to masquerade under a false
label.
Both Assemblymen Gettle and
LcNg charged that the highest priced
lobby ever before the Legislature ap-
peared for this bill, while Schwal-
bach rounded out the opposition by
the assertion that every honest mer-
chant was against the measure.

luton was passed denouncing the

age of the bill
The resolution goes on to state
that, inasmuch as the previous action
of the club and local business on the
subject had been disregarded by Mr..

body that a copy of the resolution
be wired to Representative Mccall
of Massachusetts, to be read by him
on the floor of the house, so as to
inform congressman as to the atti-
tude of Superior business men on the
subject. A similar resolution was
forwarded to Senator La Toilette.
