court DECISION MAY
AFFECT LAND TITLES
STATUTES PROHIBITING POLYG-
AMY HELD NOT 10 APPLY TO
FIVE CIVILIZED TRIBES.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. l0.-A
decision which may have an important
effect on many cas- ern Oklahoma titles
was delivered by Judge Sharp Of the
supreme court commission in tho
case of the Oklahoma Land company,
and Pig Walker vs. John r., Thomas
and Grant Foreman. The question at
issue was whether plural marriages
in the Creek nation should have been
recorded as legal at the time, and
whether the children of such mar
RACES were legitimate.
The court holds that marriages ac-
cording to the usages and customs OF
the Creek nation were to be regarded
as valid according to numerous court
decisions. and that while polygamy
was expressly prohibited by the Creek
council in 1881, the courts should have
allowed proof as to conditions existing
before that time. 1t is held specific
ally that the federal statutes prohibit
ing polygamy in the territories did
not apply to the Five Civilized trides
The court holds, howevre, that in
case OF the sort a plural wife must
have been recognized as such and that
It could not cover any adulterous rela-
tions. 1t was shown that the man
whose allotment was in litigation had
been excluded from the church to
which he belonged on account of his
relations. 1t is held that that fact
would be evidence on this point, and
that II wa scrror for the court to eN-
clude the testimony. The district court
Of Wagner county is reversed and
the case remanded

If a nearer happened to take fancy to one of. the children. the boy or girl was left behind It was not then so well realized that this happy-go- l lucky method of placing children in vited disaster. Many of the boys and girls removed by the various Societies for the Prevention of Cruel ty to Children from unworthy homes are children who were parcelled out for adoption by hit or miss methods. Often the blame for this belongs to the parents of the children who made no adequate inquiry concerning the people to whom they entrusted theIr offspring. Occasionally one stiii hears of London waifs who are sent over in patches and distributed to Canadian ranchmen with appalling ce1erity. Usually. however, in our larger cities the reputable societies do not promote adoption W hiich does not bear all the earrnarks of being a gilt-edged proposition.
 Children who fail of adoption are .s<boarded out's in approved homes. For their care until theY are twelve years old or so an allowance Of about S3 a week is often made although some are placed in free homes. When they grow older the cash value Of f5s ch1idhOOds cOfnpl1caIeS the SlIuA- ton for there are people who wish to adopt children in order to exploit them as wage-earners. Often, how ever. the families taking children of this age are required to pay them small wage for their work. As a re- suit the Massachusetts superintendent of minor wards holds savings bank books with deposits amounting to s2O,0o0 which. belongs to boys and girls of his family of 5000. To the credit of human nature, however most adoptions fall within the twelve year period when children have no comm ercial value.
 The superintendents of some insti- tutions declare that they cannot meet one-tenth of the applications they re cefve for girl baby two years oI1 This is explained partly by the belief that little women are more easilh trained in the niceties of department than there ruder brothers.
 But chance even after all investi- gat1ons are made, largely determines whether a child is to remain in the care of a state or private institu- tionn. or whether some lonely couple. moved by it's personal appearance will eagerly offer to provide a new home and love.

BOOST YOUR COUNTRY.

The amount of money In circula-
tion in the banks of the country on
Jan. 2, was rs millions greater than
it was a year ago. The per capita
circulation was $34.47. Wall street
money is "easy" and interest rates
are low. New York bank reserves
continue to pile and and loans are
being sought abroad. Recently $780,
100000 in gold was due to be ship
ped from Europe to America, the bal
ance due on exports, but American
bankers took advantage of the un-
friendly feeling existing between Eng
land and France on one side and Ger
many on the other to loan that money
in Germany at high rate of interest.
But recently 100000 in gold was
shipped from New York to Argentina
and placed to the credit of London
bank. 1t sounds pretty good, this
loaning such big sum in Germany,
and the fact that money is easy"
in New York, but it doesn't do you
any particular good. Suppose the
$1O0,000,O00 that went to Germany
had been loaned to western railroads
for improvements, extensions and
more equipment. Suppose railroads
and other big industries were causing
such demand for money that it
would be tight" instead of easy" in
New York. Would not the country be
better off? Would not the steel mills
be turning out more rails, other fac
tories producing more engines and
other equipment, lumber mills turn
ing out more ties and lumber for
cars, and would not the farmers be
called upon for more stuff to feed
these busy men?

DENVER POLITICAL SCRAP
TO BE CARRIED ON

In the purchase of the Denver Times
by Robert W. Speer the announce
ment is practically made that the
fight in Democracy between Patter-
son and Speer is to be carried on just
as viciously as before. For eight
years these two men have fought each
other In every way conceivable to
both. 1t was thought that with Mr..
Speer's retirement as mayor of Dem
yer, the fight would probably either
end or become less bitter, but not so.
MIR. Speer has purchased daily pa
per and his initial editorial indicates
that he intends to continue the war
fare even more bitter than before.
This simply means continuation of
two distinct factions in Democracy.
If the fight is carried on as it will
be through the coming campaign, it
should mean a Republican victory in
this state. With all elements in the
party gathering around a
festive board at a harmony banquet
and with the two elements of Democ-
racy getting farther and farther apart
the prospects for Republican success
this fall are certainly bright.
