MILITIA MUST
OBEY ORDERS
ALL STATE ORGANIZATION
MUST CONFORM TO REGULAR
ARMY STANDARDS.

Washington, Jan. Ga clean issue
has been made between the war de
partment and the national guard as
sociation of the United States upon
the point of organization of the mill
tia forces of the country. Major Gen
eral Wood, chief of staff. has issued
circular-No. Is Announcing the
decision of Judge Advocate General
CroWder that the militia must con.
form in organizations to the stand
ards of the regular army else they
will be deprived of all federal finan-
cial support.
This decision is of the greatest i'm
portance to the militia as well as to
the government, because few, if any,
of the state national guard organiza-
tionS are now able to meet the re-
quirement and if the government is
able to make use of the military in
an emergency, there must be sweep
ing change in the state organizations
or radical modification of the ex.
listing militia law.
When the Dick militia act became
effective in 1908, a period of five
years was allwed within which the
militia was to reOrganize to conform
to regular army standards. In most
states excellent results We're secured.
The plan was that the militia was
to be organized into brigades and
divisions. The brigade was to be com
manded by brigadier general, and
the division by a major general. and
when the war department last August
issued circular No. s, requiring the
militia organizations to conform to
this requirement, it developed there
was great surplusage of high oflc-
ers in the militia-that Major Gen
erals were commanding mere brig
AIDES and brigadier generals were in
charge of regiments Enforcement of
the circular would require many of
these officers to lose their high rank
unless they We're able to recruit the
rank and file sufficiently to fill up the
gaps in the organizations. The ma.
f'onaI guard association has fatty re-
fused to comply with this require
ment on the ground that there is not
sufficient authority in law for de-
lining the organization of the brig.
N''' t'Aih VI lolOlln anu llldl lldS-

CHAS. D. CARTER
INDIAN PAYMENT
WILL NOT ALLOW AMENDMENT
TO BE KNOCKED OUT ON A
POINT OF ORDER.

Congressman Chas. d. Carter has
proposed to the subcommittee that
the Indian appropriation bill carry
an amendment appropriating a suf-
liclent sum of money to pay to each
Indian of the Chickasaws and Choc-
taws 500. This sum would agrre-
gate about $2,7OO,OOO and would be
a material help to the country. MI
carter is expecting the amendment
to be reported favorably from the
committee and when it Is reported
out he expects points of order TO
be raised against it by members on
the floor of the house. Mr.. Carter
states that points of order cannot
be sustained against the appropria
ton for the reason that the Atoka
agreement and the Curtis bill both
provide that the funds which come
into the treasury to the credit OF
the tribes shall be paid out to the
members of the thbes annually
When the Treaty Rights Associa-
ton was in session in Pauls Valley
In December the Indians in session
there passed memorial asking con-
gress for payment of 5000 per
capita and Congressman Murray
wired Congressman Carter last night
from Admore requesting him to
ask FOR $500 per capita payment
instead or a payment OF 500.

LOVE COUNTY
IN POLITICS
WILL ASK FOR STATE SENATOR
AND DISTRICT JuCGE-ENT!.
TIED TO BOTH, II SAWS.

J. c. Graham was in the city yes.
erday from Marietta. Mr Granam
came here on business mission
and he could not be inyeiL'cd into
talking politics
1t is known, however, that Mariet-
Ia and Love county feel this year
that they are entitled to the district
Judge and to the state scuutcr.
Carter county and Love county COM
pose the judicial district and Judge
Stillwell II. Russell of Ardmore has
held the place since statehood
Judge Russell resides in Ardmore
and Love county will ask the people
of the district to give them the dis
trict Judge for the next four years.
Just who will be in the race for
the office is not known but it is
certain that there will be a canul-
date from that county. 1t may bel
A. Eddleman, it may be j. c. Gra-
ham, and it may be some of the
other good lawyers who reside IN
Marietta.
Marietta will also have candi-
dat for the state senate to succeed
Chas. b. Kendrick, whose time Will
expire this year. This candidate may
be Judge r. A. Keller and it may
be b. c. Logsdon, or it may be some
other good man in that county but
it is practically certain that Love
county will have a candidate for
state senatorial honors.
Love county people are loyal tol
their own people and that county
has some mighty good timber fer
these official positions. Whether the
voters will see the offices from a
standpoint of their location in the
district or whether they will be in
fuenced to vote only as they sum
up the men with reference to their
fitness remains to be seen

Attorney General Wins First Round
In Long Drawn Out Fight.

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 6.-The &c
rate matter came up again in the
federal court today upon a motion
of Attorney General West to dis
miss the original injunction appli
cations of the railways. These in
functions were originally denied in
the United States district court of
this state, but were granted by the
circuit court of appeals. The Okla
homa cases never have been passed
on by the United States supreme
court after the Minnesota and Mis-
souri, cases were decided finally.
Attorney General West secured from
the railroads an agreement to rein
state the low rates in this state
pending a trial through the lower
court and upon the merits of the
case 1t was stipulated at the same
time that the state would make no
effort to collect on the excess fare
coupons given since the rates were
enjoined until some time in 1914.
The attorney generals move today
was but preliminary TO bringing suit
in the state courts to compel the

Cotton Exports Are
Already Away Dow

Washington, D. c., Sept. IA
The extent to which the Euro
pean war affected the American
cotton industry was disclosed to-
day in the census bureaus Au-
gust cotton consumption report
showing that during August only
81, 210 bales of cotton were ex-
ported, while during August last
year 257, 172 bales went abroad.
Great Britain took only 6,370
bales this August while last year
she took 77,488 bales; Germany
took only 81 bales against II, 929
year ago; France only 5 bales
against 81 933 year ago: Italy
1,546 against Ii, 568 year ago,
and all other countries 1927
against 40,2 in August, 1913.
The supply of cotton during
the cotton year of 1913 which
ended August 81, was more than
Is, 100000 bales. The exports
for the year amounted to So, 914,-
548 bales, domestic consumption
5,577, S64 bales, and the quantity
on hand August 81 was about
1924, 265 bales.
An extraordinary feature of
the report was the fact that
more cotton was imported during
August than was exported by
the United States, which last
year supplied almost 81 per cent
of the worlds cotton.
