W|THORAWS
OLD BILL,
FILES NEW
FRANK STEARNS MAKES A
CHANGE IN OLD LOCAL
OPTION BILL

| The locai option bill providing fol
an amendment eliminating prohibition
from the state constitution was with
drawn at the Office Of the secretary
OF state Wednesday afternoon by
lahoma Local Option association and
later relied with slight change
Originally the bin provided that al-
ter Il vote has been taken by a local
option unit, two years must intervene
before the question can be voted up
on again. The bill as reGled fixes the
time between elections at fOnr years.
Otherwise the bill differs in no -
spect irCm the form IN which il was
filed in October.
C-ties and Incorporated towns are
retained as the local option INIT, ana
there Is the same provision thdt conn-
ties outside the limits OF such cities
and towns may vote independently
upon the question OF whether they
shall be wet or dry The bill pro-
vides for license OF $500 in any
city or town, this um to be in addi
ton to the regular license tax and to
be paid into the county treasury for
tie NOulls lOdN lhllu. HC Slubt Asi-N
is to be $3.50, to be paid into the gen
eral fund. Closing hours for saicons
are fixed at II O'Clock p m, to
o'clock a. m, ami not more than one
license to be granted for each l,5oo
OF population.
The original bill was abandoned
owing to the recent decision j. the
United states circuit court OF appeals
in which it was held that liquor
could not be shipped into the indian
Territory part of the state. This de
cision delayed the work of securing
signatures, and as the time for Sc
curing signatures to the initiative
petition expired Friday, it was
thought best to withdraw and rcliie
Petitions for initiating the bill as
relied will not be started for few

SATURDAY SET APART AS
GENERAL CLEANUP DAY

Caief Of police Mitchell acting on
the advice of the county health of-
ficer. requests all citizens to clean
up their promises. The chief said
this morning, that while Guthrie is
known throughout the state as the
cleanest city in it, yet the sanitary
conditions at this time in the city
are worse than they have been for
several years AT worst, they are
better than most, but just now, due
to the protracted freezing weather,
conditions are very bad He request
ed the Leader to urge upon the citi
Zens the necessity for quick action 10
relieve the situation
Especial attention is to be called
to the accumulation Of garbage tin
cans and other refuse matters in the
cellars and the citizens generally are
going to be urged to cooperate with
tle city board of health in a cleanup
crusade which is to be inaugurated
Saturday, February 81, on which day
the health department will put on a
number of extra wagons to haul the
garbage to the city dump.
TIE attention of the citizens is
therefore called to the necessity for
general cleaning up. Guthrie is
fortunate in not having an epidemic
of contagious diseases. such as now
exists in many Texas cities and in
some OF the towns of the southern
part Of Oklahoma Let every one
help in the cleanup crusade sched-
uled tor thatda to the end that
the health OF the citizens of this com
munity will continue to excel that
of all other cities. 1t is rumored
that there has been a death in an
adjoining county from the dreaded
spinal meningitis within the past
twenty-four hours. which is another
good reason why Guthrie should get
busv along this line

ReaI Danger in Race suicide.

I am not sure that the barrenness
OF the butterfly portion Of our wealth.
Ter class Is wholly to be deplored from
a racial standpoint. The children
whose birthright Of constitutional en-
ergy comes to them In burned out
condition are no more desirable In our
racial stock than those children OF the
slums whose birthright of constitu-
tional energy is inherited In a worn
out or underfed condition. The harm
which comes is not from the fact of
barrenness. but from the influences
radiating into the healthier planes OF
our social life.
But there Is still another class OF
vigorous young American women, who
looking back upon the hapless state OF
their mothers to whom was some
times given less consideration than to
mothers Of farm livestock, have re-
belled against what to them seems a
call tc a life less valued than that OF
the mere beast Of burden. These are
the open minded, healthy bodied
daughters of the farm who are leav-
ing the open country by thousands for
a more or less genetically barren life
in the city or town. Nor Will this
change so long as the farm men make
the life OF even the city servant seem
to the country girl more remunerative
and joyous than the life of some coun-
try mothers and wives. The sense o,
racial fitness. racial pride. and racial
JOY seems to be on the decline-tr
other words. we are confronting race
suicide in the best American stock and
a survival Of the unfit.
May We not hope that social science
and the church will join hands with
the divine part Of human instincts In
carrying to the consciences OF our best
American stock the truth that race
suicide is not only morally degrading
to the individual. but also highly un.
patriotic to the nation; and that. from
a racial standpoint. 1t Is indefensible
for those with good heredity TO leave
child bearing mainly to the races and
families Of least worth? People OF
really inferior racial blood have the
best reason in favor OF race suicide
People Of superior blood. II the fact.
were SO brought home to them by rec.
ords and tabulations as to cultivate
their pride and show them their larger
opportunities and family and racial in
terests, will inevitably take up thu
work OF producing a good race o
Americans with true eugenic zeal -
