OF the lower world held up to public view
when men hold up their own souls for
personal investigation

NEW FIGHT ON
To CLAMP LID
At SAVANNAH
Judge Charlton Orders Inquiry
and Ministers Urge Changes
in Petit Jury Lists.

SAVANNAH. Nov. 1.-what is
thought to be opening shot In a fight
to put the lid on Savannah was
sounded this week when Superior
Judge Charlton charged the grand
jury to investigate the liquor traffic
His charge was followed by emphatic
stand on the part Of the Rev. r. D.
Ellis.
Four times since the prohibition act
went into effect the ministers and
Men and Religion forces have at
tempted to close the district and re-
strict tn esale Of intox1cants to near
beer. Such strong opposition to the
fight developed on every hand that 1t
was considered futile and the move
ment stopped without anything be-
ing accomplished. Only recently, the
ministers adopted a resolution favor
ing the abandonment of tho anti
liquor fight
DR.. Ellis charges that the reason
there are no indictments when cases
are brought into the courts for VIC
lations Of the prohibition act is that
the petit jury box is crowded with
names of liquor dealers, or persona
personally interested in the traffic
He has suggested purging the Jury
lists and his suggestion has caught an
official ear.
Tomorrow sermons win be preach
ed from a number of pulpits and 1t 10
expected the campaign will be
launched then.

Mrs. Raymond states that she never
got any ideas on RECONSIDERATION from
friends or books 1t simply dawned
on her. She now remembers that her
grandmother communed with spirits
and thinks she must have inherited
the peculiar faculty of mental retro
speCtion from her.

Fifteen murders and several auto

also have been numerous during the

posed by the Grand Jury, which has
made an investigation, to make a full

MUSKOGEE, OKLA, Nov. THE

behalf of the two tribes, the Govern
ment will assert the claim Of the In
siian nations to these valuable rights,
as well els the first interest In the oil

ed to c. N. Haskell and others by
she State School Land Department,
by authority of the decision OF Dis
ariot Judge Ralph f Campbell that
1he title TO the river beds passed from
the tribes to the State at statehood.
Some time ago members Of the
Mackey family granted an oil lease to
Cyrus e Avery and others on a small

of the right that he land bound cd

tion to prevent the drilling Of as
many wells as possible before the
case Is finally decided
oil men do not hesitate in declar-
ing that the oil rights involved
amount to millions of dollars.
