SCHOOL BOND Case
into court AGAIN
TWO DECISIONS HAVE BEEN
ADVERSE BUT OPPOSI-
TON CONTINUES.
BOARD HAS WON Twice
Will File Brief In Supreme Court
for Another Hearing; School
Children Suffer.

The case Of the 100000 school
bond issue which was voted early in
the spring, and shortly afterward
brought into litigation by certain fl
nanciors who felt that the tax levy
would be too great, viii presently be
brought up in supreme court FOR the
second time for a permanent injunc-
ton. According TO the statement Of
l.. J.. Henderson, attorney for the
plaintiff, yesterday afternoon, there
Is period of six months allowed
after the first decision Of the court
Is made to appeal for Il second hear
ing The time is not nearly up but
the case will be filed without un-
necessary delay and contested as
soon as the case is reached on the
docket Of the supreme court.
Two Favorable Decisions
The decision was made in favor Of
the school board at the preliminary
hearing in the district court of Tulsa
county and the opinion of the dis
trict court was affirmed by the su
preme court, so there - little doubt
on the part of the school board that
the decision will be sdin given them.
The court agreed with the plaintiff
i'm holding that wo' on had no right
to vote in the bond election, but that
il would be necessary for the plain
tiff to prove that enough women
voted to change the result of tho
election in order to make the bonds
void.
Technical Claim.
The plaintiff hes one more ques-
ton to contend over, In regard TO the
legality of the election. That Is, that
the school board counted the ballots
ana tlbuated the results instead OF
the county election board, which they
maintain is the proper board to count
the lallots. They claim that the
votes were counted and the boxes re-
turned without the ballots or the rec
ords. The delay in getting the bonds
legalizod has been so much larger
than was expected that it has proven
necessary to build 1S temporary
buildings instead OF six to accomo-
date the children. causing even more
expense than was at first anticipated
The bonds are now In the hands of
the attorney general ana will he
placed on sale as soon as the final
decision OF the court is rendered.

The days between the high temper
atures Of summer and the low tenn
peratures of winter. thedays when it
is a little too cooi for real comfort in
the home or office and not cold
enough for fire in the furnace. have
come earlier than usual. The sun
itself seems unable to temper the
wind to summer clothing.
Sitting out on the verandah or float
ing about in a motor car these bril-
liantlv moonlit evenings is a doubtful
pleasure. qualified 10y wraps and rugs.
yet it seems colder in the house than
outdoors. There is dampness in the
chill of the confined air that pene-
trates to the marrow and when one
rises after having been absorbed in
book there is a stiffness of the joints
resembling that of rheumatism or age.
Figuratively speaking, these too pre-
viOus autumn days give US the first
plunge into the cold and the result is
goose pimples and grOuches.
Few people can be agreeable when
too hot or too cold. The amount Of
self-control required is not at the
command Of the majority. The ten
dency is to complain and cast asper-
sions on the climate. Just why nature
exposes herself TO these criticisms is
not explained. except in the language
OF the weather bureau. which, like
that of diplomacy is an unknown
tongue outside of official circles.
All the common herd knows is that
the changes occur, suddenly, radically
and. though announced, unexpectedly.
Few people pay enough attention to
the weather forecasts to carry an UNI
brella when the sun shines or a great
coat when it is fair. They are usually
caught unaware.

WAR BENEFITS FOR L. :.

The war in Europe will proba bly,
bring economic advantages TO the
United States. II will enable it TO sell
it's great crops in places which will
give much greater income than if
there was no war.
Almost every industry will derive
more or less advantage. American
investors and bankers should get in
much profit from the ability to buy
back from Europe great quantities of
securities at attractive prices in pay
ment for the fOodstuffs and raw ma
terial exported from the United States
The United States can become, as it
has this week the worlds greatest
market for capital and if the Ameri-
can people rise to their opportunity
they can do a great deal 10 mitigate
the disastrous economic consequences
which would otherwise result in many
countries from a great European war.
II is obvious that for the time being
the money markets of Europe Will be
closed TO the demands for new capital
of Canada, Brazil Argentina, Mexico
and other countries. and at such a
time the prestige of the United States
would be immensely enhanced if il
were to take the place of Europe and
meet the pressing needs of these bOr-
rowing countries.
1t is possible that the United States
may participate IN the great loans tndt
will have TO be raised in Europe if al
most the whole continent becomes en-
gagged in war Possibly the participa-
ton Will be indirect rather than direct.
For the United States TO gain bene-
mt from the position as the wealthiest
nation in the world, il is essential that
American investors should not only
have confidence in the future of their
own country, but also believe that, war
or no war, the country will continue 20
progress.
In brief. great war in Europe will
give the United states an opportunity
of assuming the post of world banker,
by supplying capital freely to countries
and individuals III all parts of the
globe who need il and can provide the
required security. Should the Ameri-
can people take advantage of the
golden opportunity afforded them by
the outbreak of the war. il will mean
not diminished but increased prosper

GERMANN,s srArENlENr.

Germany's forthcoming statement
drawn out by the announcement OF the
new and stronger alliance between
England. France and Russia may
illuminate the issues at stake i'm the
European war but at present the
Civilized world is not capable OF form
ing an intelligent opinion.
Germany. which committed the first
overt acts. claims ia be engaged in
defensive warfare. but has 50 far
failed TO convince the outside world
OF the Legitimacy of the claim. The
outside world is still wondering what
it is all about and waiting with an
open mind for an explanation Ger
many's statement may throw addition
al light on the subject For the sake
of fairness il is hoped so. The out
side world wants 10 be fair. II wishes
40 avoid erroneous conclusions.
What remains in doubt is the cause
OF Germanys sudden action which
precipitated war among the leading
nations OF Europe. If the allies pro-
voked 1t the would should know it.
At present the evidence is against such
a conclusion. Germany was ready for
immediate war The allies were not,
But for the Intervention of Belgium
they would have been caught unpre-
pared. II not unaware. Paris would
have been i'm possession OF Germany
two or three weeks ago The burden
OF testimony unquestionably rests upon
Germany.
Another thing Germany should eN-
plain If her motives are to he fairly

declared that the war was not enc Of

that if she is able To dictate terms she
Will insist upon an extension of her
empire. and il is obvious that she viii
hold ON 10 Belgium.
This change of attitude is attributed
To the formation of the new triple
alliance between England, France and
Russia. but the reason does not imme-
diately appeal. What could Germany
expect. She Is in alliance with Austria

inevitably drew the FIRE OF Russia She

The arbitrary position assumed by
Germany that if not resisted she would
demand nothing but if resisted she
would make the war one of territorial
aggression needs the explanation
which We hope the forthcoming state
