NOCAUSEFORALARM
Tariff Changes viii Little Dis
turb Business Conditions.
Producing Interests Of the Nation Can
Quickly Adjust Themselves to the
New onditions-Nothlns to
Justify Panic.

Debate is the order in the senate on
the observation-disclosures tariff bill
For the first time in our history tar
if bill comes from the senate finance
committee with rates lower than when
the bill passed the house. The senate
finance committee has made many re-
auctions end adjustments. 1t has
transferred pig iron, ingots, and steel
rails to the free list; 1t has adjusted
the duties On the cereals; 1t has cor
rected errors in the cotton schedule.
One may disagree with some of the
features of the senate bill, but he will
have to admit that 1t is an honest care
full effort to revise the tariff.
Political prophets to the contrary
Notwithstanding, there is absolutely
nothing in the bill to justify any panic
talk The country, it is true, Is nerv-
GUS, as is usual on the eve of tariff leg
islation, but our economic condition
is sound No parallel can be drawn
between the situation now and that Of
1893 and 1894. The Underwood-Sim-
mons bill is In no sense free-trade
measure. II the producing interests
of the nation will keep their courage
and face the new situation with de-
termination, they will quickly adjust
themselves to new conditions. These
being the facts, senators should choose
their words in debate with care. Crit
icisms of the senate bill are not only
not Objectionable, but desirable. The
bill can be improved in many places
by amendment. Infammatory speech
es, however, should be frowned on and
condemned. Politicians who prophesy
destruction do more to fulfill their
prophecy than their opponents. The
psychological element in the tariff
problem is always large and today is
dominant. Those in power who have
the public ear should calm rather than
further agitate the troubled waters OF
our industrial life.

WAYS OF SERVING RADlSHES
Always Popular Dinner AccompanE
ment May Be Utilized In combl-
nations or by Themselves.

There are two kinds of radishesa
one is round and small and red the
other is long and tapering and streak
ed with white. Both when eaten raw
should be chosen young, as their flavor
is then the mildest. They should all
ways be served crisp and cold, 10
they are prepared about an hour be-
fore they are to be eaten they can be
kept in ice water until they are served
and then served in a bed of cracked
ice. The little red round ones can be
cut in rose fashion. To do this first
make two deep cuts at right angles
to each other across the radish, not
cutting quite through to the stem end.
Then with a sharp steel knife loosen
the skin on the four quar- -ers. The ice
water will curl the little points Of skin
back like rose leaves.
Individual radish dishes are a nov
city seen on the tables Of the up-to-
date hostess. These dishes consist
of small saucer on one side Of which
little salt cellar Is fastened. They
are made OF engraved glass with silver
mountings and are sold for SO each.
Young radishes sliced with the skins
on are q good addition to vegetable
soup. If they are used simply for
seasoning. they can be put in the soup
pot whole, but II they are to be left
in the soup they should be daintNy
sliced or diced.
Radishes can be used in many ways
for salad. One way calls for three
punches OF sound, red radlshes. Put
them in cold water on the ice for an
hour. Ten minutes before serving
time wipe them dry and cut them in
fine clices Slice also two small onions.
Put them in layers in a salad bowl with
minced parsley and dress them with
oil and vinegar.
Another radIsh salad calls for bed
OF crisp, white lettuce leaves. On
this small. quartered radishes are ar
ranged and the whole is dressed with
French dressing and little onion
Juice.

Gravel Controversy Ended

The proposed river bed lease
amendment to the constitution will
not go on the ballot at the August
election. The supreme court denied
the application of Senator Campbell
Russell and others for writ of man
damus to compel Secretary Ben w.
Riley of the state election board to
place the question on a special ballot
and the courts action brings to imme-
date termination the three-cornered
controversy that has been going on
for more than a week between the
governor, Senator Russell and the
state election board relative to the
proposed amendment.
The fact that the Legislature did
not refer the question within the time
required by law was the main issue
in the case and on which the court
refused to grant the mandamus The
statute provides that all questions
submitted to vote of the people shall
be referred by the legislature forty
days before the election at which the
question is to be voted on, while in
this case it was only thirty-eight days
before the election when the resolu-
ton ordering the referendum was
passed by the legislature.

rltIe to Lands In East Cleared

uskogee-Holding that Oklahoma
county courts have power to approve
deeds by full-blood heirs where the
original allottees died before May 81,
1908, and that the approval of the
secretary is not necessary to such
deeds and knocking out the opinion
of former Attorney General Wicker
sham which held the opposite view,
the United States circuit court of APP
peals handed down a decision which
clears clouds on titles to S25,OO0,O00
worth of land in eastern Oklahoma.
The circuit court of appeals has af-
flrmed an earlier opinion in the case
handed down by Federal Judge Ralph
E. Campbell
The case involved the construction
of section 9 of the act of May 81,
which provided that the death of any
allottee of the Five Civilized tribes
should operate to remove all restrlc-
lions upon the alienation Of said allot-
tees land provided that no convey
ance of the interest of any full-blood
Indian hair in such land should be
valid unless approved by court hav-
ing jurisdiction of the settlement of
the state of the deceased allottee.

BOOSTERS" WERE eRAFrERs
Land Sharks Clean UP the Easy Marks
of Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia, Pa-Complaints con-
tinue to pour in here against the
oklahoma boosters" who have been
touring this part of the country in a
gaudily furnished private car selling
lots in Oklahoma. 1t is claimed that
the boosters have collected more
than million dollars throughout the
country. The Pennsylvania contribu-
lions will amount to more than $780,
600. In one little Pennsylvania town.
Sunbury, twenty men have been found
who bought lots at $3.50 each, paying
$50 down and agreeing to pay $40 a
month on the remainder of the pur.
chase price.
Seven warrants have been sworn
out by government officials.
The postoffice department received
letters from a committee of five resi-
dents of Wilkesbarie. who went to
MGAlester, Okla, to investigate. The
letter said that the lots sold to resi-.
dents of Wilkesbarre at from $3.50 to
$3.50 are not worth more than $25.
The McAlester land deal is charac'
terized in the letter as one of the big
gest frauds ever perpetrated in this
country.
w. F. Gosuch and Victor Rausch,
arrested in the booster" car, are still
in jail Rausch is a resident Of Phila-
delphia, while Gosuch claims Balti
more as his home.
The men, who were in charge of the
private passenger coach, which has
been operating throughout this sec
ton of the state for months, are
charged with fraud in that they sold
town lots in McAlester Okla, on the
statement that they had made arrange
ments with the secretary of the in
terror whereby the purchasers were to
have first chance to buy 100 acres OF
government land, when the lands OF
the Choctaw nation were thrown open
for public sale.

FIRST CONVICTION UNDER NEW
ANTl-ClGARET LAW rs
HELD VALID
GRAVEL AMENDMENT is KILLED
Philadelphia Land Grafters Generous

seetions-other News
From the Capitol

The first conviction under the anti
cigaret statute that has been appealed
to the criminal court of appeals is
affirmed in an opinion handed down
by Judge Armstrong in the case OF
G. c. Allen of Enid, who was con-
victed and fined 800 in the county
court of Gerfield county on a charge
of selling cigaret papers.
In the opinion, Judge Armstrong
calls attention to the fact that this
as the first case that has been brought
before the criminal court of appeals
on a conviction under the anti-cigaret
laws and suggests that other county
officers follow the example laid down
by the authorities of Garfield county
and see that the statute is enforced.
1T is unlawful to give away, or sell
cigaret or cigaret papers," says Judge
Armstrong, "and that law should be
enforced the same as any other law
on the statute books"
The. constitutionality of the law un-
der which the conviction was OBJ
tanned was not questioned in the APP
peal, the only attack made being on
the credibility of the chief prosecut-
ing witness, who swore he bought the
papers from Allen. The credibility
of the witness was not questioned
during the trial and therefore, in the
opinion of Judge Armstrong, it can
not be attacked in the higher court.

currants With Ralslns.

The combining Of raisins and cur
rants in a sweet conserve is very
old-fashioned idea that was popular
with our grandmothers. The follow
ing way of preparing this sweet comes
from Duchess county household
where 1t has been in use for several
generations: Have ready seven
pounds each of currants and of sugar,
one pound Of seeded raisins and three
pints of currant juice. This juice
should be squeezed from another bowl
full of currants. Add the sugar to 1t
and boil the mixture three minutes
Then stir the fruit into 1t and cook
the whole ten minutes. The large
cherry currant," which does not con-
tain many seeds, is best for this pre-
serve. Look the fruit over very care
fully as imperfect currants or raisins
will ruin the conserve.
