LITTLE INTEREST IN ELECTION.
Counties Advised to Proceed With
Votinq as Scheduled

Oklahoma City, Ok a., Aug. AT
the close of business today Secrc-
tary Riley Of the state election board
had served notice by telephone en-
the elect on boards of sixty counties
to disregard the injunction issued by
the Oklahoma county district court,
and to hold the election on Tuesday,
submitting the board Of agriculture
amendment The county boards were
informed that TIE supreme court had
vacated the lower courts order.
AS far as the state board secretary
is informed, elections Will be he d in
all the counties, although it is indi-
Gated that not to exceed one-half OF
the vote will so to the polls. In many
counties, he was told, the vote would
not be one fourth, since there ap-
pears to be lite interest in any OF
the FIVE questions to be submitted.
Senator Campbell Russell says that
the board of agriculture amendment
and thel school tax distribution
amendment both will receive affirm
avtie majorities. Members of the
state board who were in session to-
day for the regular monthly meeting
take the opposite view on the amend
ment affecting their positions. In
event it is adopted they will hold the
office until ousted by court order, and
would resist the court proceedings on

ONE CHURCH FOR ALL CREEDS

Tulsa, Okla. Aus. Sand Springs
thriving manufacturing town, seven
miles northwest of Tulsa, has solved
the church problem to the general
satisfaction CT the citizens. Although
the town has nearly 1000 population
and is rapidly growing, there is but
one church in the place, known as
the Community church. 1t is nom
and is supported by
general subscription, every business
interest contributing. Amy denom-
ination seeking to establish de
nomnational church receives no en-
couragement to that end, even by
persons who before coming to Sand
Springs were affiliated with such
sect. The people declare the genu-
inc religious spirit is better foster
ed by a church in which sects and
creeds play no part. Every service
finds the house crowded to the doors,
even in the hottest weather DR. S.
r. Gordon, former pres dent OF Henry
Kendall college and for years a prom
church, is the pastor of,the church.
The town of Sand Springs was

founded by Charles Page, the mill
ionaire philanthropist who has at
tracted nation-w VIDE attention by his
support OF a ,reat institution for de-
pendent children. 1t is one town in
Oklahoma abso utely free from liquor.
A clause in the deed to evCry lot in
the town provides that in the event
liquor is ever sold on the premises
the lot reverts to the original owner.
Mr.. Page. So far no owner Of prop
erty there has had the temerity to
rent building for bootleggfng pur-
poses and bootleggers themselves
have no desire to locate in place
where the atmosphere is so uninvit-
ing as in Sand Springs.

Insurance Reduction.
An important feature of the new
order is a reduction in insurance

insurance fee is 10 cents with lin
it of $50 insurance Under the new
regulations the insurance rate will be
cents if the insurance carried is
not more than S25.
Rural free delivery routes are ap-
