'rHomBIrloN ENFORCEMENT"

In the enforcement Of the prohibi-
tory law in Oklahoma the enforce
mcnt officers posing as deputy United
states marshals seem TO be carrying
things with a high hand,
The fact that the law makes it pro-
hibitiyc to carry liquor into the old
Indian territory has given these spe-
clal enforcement officers chance to
show or exceed their authority.
They are reported to be particular
ly offensive on trains running to Dew
ey Bartlesy1lle and Tulsa. The bag
gage Of no passenger seems to be free
Of molcstation when one of these
s'euths gets on a train,
OF course, no one from Independ-
ence would carry bottle of whiskey
in his grip for the purpose Of bootleg
ging nor would they make a practice
of it even if they desired to have 1t
for medicinal purposes yet even the
veriest prohibitlonist is subject to the
humiliation of having his grip search
ed by one Of these officers
They pass through the train and hit
or miss take the liberty Of opening
grips for the purpose of seeing wheth-

Editor Tulsa Daily World
have been a constant reader Of

trust YOU viii grant 1t.
/ ! have been so often reminded by
the editor Of the evening paper that
this was a white Mans Country" and
that the republicans and socialists
only were in favor of negro equality,
that | could hardly believe my own
eyes yesterday when l was passing
down East First street between Main
and Boston and saw with my own
eyes Gin a democratic city in a dem
oCratic county in a democratic state,
where the Jim-Crow law is in force)
a white lad of tender years chained
to a husky negro. l was told the
white lad was convicted Of that awful
crime of being out of work, and dead

those responsible for this outrage, II
the state or national constitution pro-
teCts you In treating the penniless ana
unemployed as vagrants, and Grimm
ais and subjecting them to such pun
ishment for their misfortune, who are
as Woodrow Wilson says victims
Of a heartless economic system" then
/ say, as five million voters OF the
last national election have said by
their ballots, Lets write a new con-
stitution that will deal out justice to
all alike regardless of their station In
society. II the officials in Tulsa are
so anxious to prosecute some one, they
have plenty of material and it is need
less to say there is not an officer In |
town that don't know Of dozens OF |
places where the law is being violat- /
ed every day. But you know the .
democratic party stands locally as
well as nationally for Tariff for Rev.
enue only. and l want to say that II
is not the purpose Of his article to
start a war against those engaged in
other than so-called legitimate busi-
ness. For | know that go long as
there is a greater profit in doing evil
than right people will take a chance
But nay only object in this article
IS to create a public sentiment so
great against practice of treating un.
fortunate working men and especially
boys. as criminals. For IL you should
attempt to take care of all those In
that condition in Tulsa you would
lot have negroes enough to chain
hem to.

land to every one hundred citizens.
At this ratio Tulsa Is at the foot Of
the list Tulsa has never voted but
one park bond issue, and then only
the insignificant sum Of $4,000. The
land purchased with this $4,000
could not today be purchased for
100000,
If no further park Improvement is
made in Tulsa for years to come the
city could make no better investment
than TO purchase some Of the attrac-
tive tracts Of land adjoining the pres
ent settled sections Of the town. A
time is coming soon, if Tulsa is to be
the great city that everybody con-
ceeds she VIII be- that additional
ward schools, fire stations, breathing
spots, Libraries, and other buildings
must be constructed. Land will reyer
be as cheap in Tulsa as it is today and
the purchase Of park land at com
paratiyely small price, will eliminate
the expenditure Of large sums in the
future every time the city desires to
make an Improvement.
Everybody realizes now, when It is
too late, that the court house should
have been erected in the center of a
city block adding to the attractive
ness Of this magnificent building and
furnishing n breathing spot in the
business section Of the city. There is
no reason why this mistake should be
duplicated in the construction of fu-
ture public institutions.
In brief the convention hall and
more park lands are necessary ad-
iuncts to Tulsas future greatness. The
city can no longer afford to do with |
out them. 1t is the duty Of every 10y
al Tulsan to go to the polls early
vote for the entire bond is
sue and then see that his friends and
ncighbors vote the same way.

THE SPEED on AN OH TOWN

There comes to this office a copy Of

ing evidence on its face that 1t is no

mp the town of Tulsa. Reference to
the ordinary map ten years old does
not discover It, 1t is not mentioned
ON the map or in the list of Ayers
American Newspaper Annual of 1906,
for the reason that at that time there
was no newspaper in the town Now
there are three. The Tulsa Daily
World morning, was founded in 1906
1t is accorded daily circulation Of
"'4S0' and a weekly of 19,460. Those
figures are very conservative, no
doubt for the present. As for Tulsa
the town which was difficult to find
ten years ago, it is city now, and
IN 1910 it had a population of 1S,1S2,
being the second city in the state. To
guess that 1t has $4,000 now would
be well within the bounds Of pru-
dence.
Now where did this town come
from in night, as itwere? The ans
wer Is simple, when YOU know that
Tulsa is an oil town. 1t has sprung
up like unto its own petroleum. But

LET'S NOT TIICD.

We have a bandit-wc don't know his
name
But know him only through his local
fame
Whose habit is when mornings like
a rose
OF soaring agents in their own depots
Sometimes he's masked; sometime.
he's wearing none,
And usually backs his presence with
gun.
We hate his calling, but at that. re.
serve
a little admiration for his nerve.
We make a motion that said bandit
cease
To further trouble overworked police;
Or join with Judge Houston in the
style
OF doing something really worth the
while.
Please, Mr.. Bandit, don't put on
these shows
OF soaring ticket agents in depots.
You're safe, of course, but certainly
we would
Advise your quitting while the Quit

Pittsburgh, Pa, April 23.-It was
believed that the action of the school
board in appointing committee of
ministers and prominent citizens to
probe into charges against Superin-
tendent S. L. Heeter would break the
children's strike.
Hundred of the children, however,
have declared that they will remain
out. of school until Heeter is ousted
from Office. so
The charges against Heeter, fol-
lowing his acquittal on the charge of
Ethel Fisher, were made by a local
newspaper. On the last day of the
Heeter trial Assistant District Attor-
ney Martin attempted to introduce
certain testimony offered by former
school employees, but the judge ruled
out the evidence. The probing COM
mittee will investigate these charges

COMMISSIONERS
WANT NEW LAWS
Changes in Public Improve
ment, Liquor and Water
shed Laws.

Members OF the city commission, the
city engineer and the city treasurer
spent yesterday morning in conference
over the proposed public improvement
measure that is TO be introduced before
the present legislature. The bill re-
ljeyes the city OF the expense OF inter
section improvement and assesses it pro
rata among the property owners iu the
district. Under the present system de-
sirabie improvements, prayed for by
property owners, are held up frequently
because the city cannot afford to pay It's
share OF the cost The commissioners
desire TO incorporate in the measure q
now system Of making special assess.
mcnts and for selling property to re-
deem special taYes. These additions
were discussed this morning.
Tho possibility of securing some
amendment 90 the state liquor law so as
TO define more fully the respective
rights and jurisdiction of iustico courts
and district courts, also was discussed
In view Of recent decision by the dis
trict court holding that only district
courts can try and convict in liquor
| cases, the city authorities are anxious
to have a more definite Law enacted.
y measure to give cities supervision
of tho watersheds from which they
draw their water supply may be backed
by the commissioners. The Commercial
club water committee is preparing such
d blll and the commission will be asked
to approve IT. At present Salt Lake
has supervision over only ten miles oi
each OF lts supply streams. \ complete
supervision would make possible a bet
| ter patrol and consequently better san
| itary conditions.
