BAILEY DECISION
AGAINST BURNETT
Trial of This Case Involving Thou
sands Has Been Tried in
Thirteen Courts.

Muskogee, June 27.-Special Judge
DeRoos Bailey will file his opinion and
special finding in facts in the matter
.yof the guardianship of Edith Durant, a
minor, R. L. Hayes and Monday Du-
rant, guardians, Bates B. Burnett, for
mer guardians, this morning at 8
O'Clock in the superior court and at
that time gave judgment against Bates
B. Burnett for $49139.S1, the amount
found to be due the estate.
This c Sc, involving thousands of
dollars as it does, has been tried be-
fore 13 different judges, and as many
different lawyers have been employed
by Burnett to look after his interests
at different times. Serious charges
have been made against judge of
Creek county, and against Bates B.
Burnett, the former guardian. Judge
w. G. Robertson, the attorney prose-
cutting the action on behalf of the
minor and her interests, has been as
saulted and battered and some Of the
questions involved have already been
passed upon in the highest court in
the state.
On the first day of August 1906,
Bates B. Burnett, very prominent
and successful business man and
banker of Sapulpa, was appointed
guardian of the estate of Edith Durant
by the United States district court for
the western district of the Indian Ter
ritory. This estate rapidly increased
in value as oil was being taken from
the lands and vast sums of money
were turned in each month to the
guardian.
!, Edith Durant was moved to Musko-
gee county and with the advent OF
statehood a statute was passed giving
the county court wherein a minor liv-
ed jurisdiction of his or her estate
A raotion was filed in the Greek county
court asking that the Edith Durant
guardianship case be transferred to
Muskogee county. Bates Burnett re
sisted this motion and fought the ap
plication in the county court IN the
district court of that county and final
ly in the supreme court of the state
to which court he appealed the case
after each of the lower courts had de
cided against him.
Directly after the case was trans
ferred to the Muskogee county court
some time in the early part of 1911
s the first order for transfer having
been made July |. 1910, by the county
Judge of Creek county, an application
was filed asking that Bates B. Bur

ground that he had misused the es

TWO GREAT ISSUES.

The importance of upholding the constitution of the United States can not be too strongly emphasized. When blow is struck at that, the founda- ton of the government is attacked at vital point. It is upon that instru- ment that this country has gone through its successful existence to the present time and it is doubtful if the wisdom of the people is out of plumb enough to tear it down now
 In his communication to the people, James s. Sherman declares: There are two great issues in this campaign which stand out alone One, our con- stitutional liberty; the other, indus trial opportunity. I realize fully the spirit of unrest that has been aroused during the last few years by muck rakers and demagogues. l appreciate most thoroughly and join most heart fly in the desire for so-called social betterment. I am in full sympathy with every well directed effort to ele- vate still further our already high standard of living. to eradicate injus- tice and iniquitous conditions in our social and industrial life, but I ask in all seriousness if any evils that have crept into our national affairs can be eliminated by breaking down our con- stitution, by attacking the courts or increasing the power of the mob ? Happily, I believe this threatening danger which seemed to menace our institutions has been averted."
 In this declaration, MT. Sherman makes an important point. The ex- amples of the power of the mob and harmful influences exerted to excite them are too well known even during the past year for this country to give them greater powers and liberties and make the country government by mob instead of a government by law. The republican party through the peo- ple's help can best overcome the evils.

THE SOUND LINES.

The change in the ownership of the steamboat lines operating through Long Island sound has been brought about through compliance with the provision of the Panama canal bill which requires that raailroads cannot own lines of steamships which would operate in competition with land traf- fic. It has never been quite under standable why such legislation should have been tucked away in the canal bill when it was the exclusion of the railroad-owned vessels from the canal which was desired in particular. The rider was pointed out at the time and considerable objection made against it. but it passed. and now comes the sep aration. aqa
 What benefit is to be accomplished for anyone is hard to see. The lines will be operated and through the fact that former railroad men have been placed at the head of the new com pany It IS evident that the same rela- tions as existed between the railroad and the steamboat lines will be main tained. It is necessary thing to the industries and shippers throughout New England that they should. The breaking up of the Sound transporta- ton into numerous poorly financed and competing lines would mean less certainty in the handling of freight and poorer service, all of which large companies are able to overcome.

PROTECTION AND PROSPERITY.

Under the present system of protec- tive tariff, the country is prospering and indications point to increased prosperity, provided the system is not changed by its enemies. It is certain, beyond any doubt, that the condition to be found today throughout the country as to plenty of business and good wages will be continued by the election of President Taft to again handle the reins of government. Con- corning this condition and it's contin- uance, the Springfield Union well says:
 "A great many working people do not seem to realize that the protective tariff is largely responsible for the high rate of wages paid for labor in this country. If the working people employed in mills and factories, on railroads and in all industrial opera tions will accept the same rate of wages as is paid for such work in other countries. free trade can be suc- cessfully established in the United States, but not otherwise. For it does not require very serious or prolonged thinking to realize and understand that 1t is simply impossible for the American manufacturer to pay almost twice as much for labor as do the manufacturers in many foreign coun- tries, and sell the goods. so produced in the same market. The free trade advocates will endeavor to explain the situation by saying that the American workman can produce more than his foreign co-laborer in the same line but that is an absurdity. The chances are that the so-called American workman is a foreigner himself, who has been attracted to this country be- cause of the higher rate of wages pre- vailing here under protective tariff If the rate of wages is no higher here, why did he come?"
 The experience of the Worcester Workingman,' as told elsewhere or this page, is evidence sufficient to de- termine voters that the policy of free trade is against their interests.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN

Everything has a message to the soul. Every tree, star and stone, ev- cry porch pillar and vined wall is try ing to say something to us.
 It is pathetic to see how the soul walks among all these clamant voices lonely, hearing nothing.
 l will give you the real definition of poetry. It is that faculty by which we hear voiceless things and read the thought and feeling of languageless things.
 There are many books of rhymes and jingle without a line of real poetry. And there are people who never have committed one metrical crime who ac- tually live in poetry.
 The test Is, do inanimate things communicate with me in any way? We may not be able to tell what they say. Perhaps all we can do is to state our inability to tell, as Tennyson's
 Break, break. break!
 On thy cold grey stones. 0 sea!
 And 1 would that I could utter
 The thoughts that come to me-" But that is poetry, of the very high est, subtlest type.

THE REEE QUESTION.

Much has been said of late concern fact that choice cuts of American beef could be purchased in England for a figure considerably less than it can in this country despite the transportation costs. In this connection the report of G. P. Austin of the department of foreign and domestic commerce sheds 'an interesting light, that department making an investigation of the situa- tion in view of the many appeals to the government. The investigation de- veloped that the beef which is sold in England as American beef is beef which is secured from Argentine and not from the United States. Beef which is bought from that South American country, and a great pro- ducer of cattle, is known in the trade as American beef, while that which is secured from this country is termed States beef" Argentine beef has in- creased in amount in England five times in nine years and it is that market which fixes the price.
 The Argentine market has been rec ognized by the packers of this coun- try. They know it's possibilities and worth and have secured control thaye. of. In using it to supply the English market they are keeping it away iron this country and thereby they are re. quiring that the demand in this eoun. try be furnished from the cattle. raising states. This being an i'm. possibility, the supply being smaller than, the demand. the price Is increas ed. Thus both countries are controlled and one does not interfere with tn, other. It Is the packers and poo, transportation facilities between thi. country and Argentine, and not tn, tariff of cent and a half a pound l which is keeping cheaper beef ava, from this country.

MOVING PICTURES IN EDUCATION


 All are familiar with the' value of mcvping pictures as a means of en- tertainment They are also proving a valuable aid in many lines of work and are to be found taking a proni- nent part in church services, politics and, in fact. most any direction where in it is desired to interest and aid the people. They have .revolutionized the theatrical business and are playing an important part for good in other lines or daily effort. Ii would seem that they have by no means reached ths height of their possibilities. The on- portunity of pressing them into excel lent service in educational lines ia open.
 The use of moving pictures for ed . ucation Is by no means new, They have been used in Germany and given real impetus in German official cir. cles.
