sion tomorrow
The commission has agreed to lni-
itate an or finance that will put the

with It. In pursuance with the agree
meEt, the petitions viii be filed with
the commission at its meeting to-

committee " eleven.
The Committee OF Eleven was ap-
pointed In o., mass meeting assem-
blrd because of indignation on ac-
count Of the old board Of education
oustIng j G. Masters from the super
iutendency Cf the Tulsa schools, This
committee, Ss a means to an end to
secure the retention of Mr. Masters,
has taken steps which viii revolution
ize the entire school system Of Tulsa
Working IN the ground that a re
cent act of the OklahomG legislature
allows the schools Of a city with
commission form Of government to
be placed under the charter, the com
mittee has 1rawn up a proposed ord
nance which will declare an emer-

school syst IN well in view, and was
partly instrumental In persuading

on what Is now known as the new
board of education This new board
has organized and has selected ] G.
Masters as the superintendent for the
coming year. The ancient board.

Per Cent of Voters.

That the ordinance drawn up by the
Committee Of Eleven, appointed in
mass meeting to take steps to secure
the retention of ], G. Masters as st'
pcrintendent Of the city schools, will
be Initiated Is an assured thing. 1t
requires the signature Of only ten per
cent Of the voters to initiate a matter
Of this kind
Carl c. Magee, chairman Of the
committee, last night gave out that In
checking up the signers of the petl-
tons which have been circulated 1t
was found there were already ATS
signers, or about fifteen per cent of
the voters Of Tulsa
It is the plan Of the committee to
get thirty per cent Of the voters as
srners to the initiatory articles. The
city commission and the Committee OF
Eleven made an agreement at recent
meeting of the commission that the
commission would initiate the proposi
ton If Informal petitions bearing the
names Of thirty per cent ot-the voters
of Tulsa were presented
The Committee Of Eleven will finish
the list today, Is the statement OF
Chairman Magee. There has been no
trouble in getting signers. Practically
all who have been approached have
Willingly placed their names on the

Attracting Much Attention

We attribute the attention being given just now
to the Muslin Underwear here, to the superior quail
ity Of the garment, the dantiness Of trimmings and
the fine sheer soft muls and long cloths used in the
garments These, along with fair prices, can but
win in the end One woman said, 'these $500 skirts
are better than | have paid $500 for" Another
said, "your Dollar Gowns are like paid $l5O for

When you inspect the Gowns, Skirts, Combina-
tiOn Suits, Drawers etc, we are selling for One

the truth when she said 81 paid $50 for no better"

Speaker Cannon today announced his
formal withdrawal from the race for
the minority leadership. The republi-
can members of the new congress are
thereby relieved from the necessity OF

for the honor of leading the minority
in the coming session.
In his statement Mr. Cannon said
"The house has been pleased to
honor me with the speakership for four
successive terms and l have served the
house as its presiding officer for eight
successive years.
"But as | said at the adjournment OF
the recent congress, do not intend to
