JUDICIAL REFORM.

Oklahoma City, Ok, June 10.--
Radical reform Of the judiciary is
the object OF an amendment to the
State Constitution that has been ini-
tiated by J.. s. Estes OF this city.
Mr.. Estes says he is acting for a
large number of citizens who have
been considering the changes pur-
posed, and he is confident that the
initiative petition will be signed by
upward of $4,000 voters in time to
have it submitted at the August pri-
mary election. Gov. Cruce is in SYM
pathy with the reform and has
agreed to submit 1t for voting in Au-
gust.
Under the provisions OF the
amendment the present Supreme
Court and the present Criminal
Court OF Appeals are to be merged
into one Supreme Court. Another
member is tc be added aid Chief
Justice provided for. This Supreme
Court shall be Nhe one high court
of the State. It is allowed to write
syllibus opinions and otherwise has
ten its work. The amendment pro-
vides that 1t shall decide all cases
within six months after they reach
its calendar. This is to be done by
discontinuing the practice OF re-
writing well-settled rules of law and
by bringing any District Judges of
the State who may not be engaged
in the trial of causes to sit on the
Supreme bench Off the interim. IT
is expected that in this manner sew
eral divisions of the Supreme Court
may be in session at the same time.

around 1900 pounds. Supply Of
quarantines is very light. fed steers
ehis week at $7.75 to 1910, grass
steers, including common light stuff
$5,75 to $7.75. Hogs received to-
day $4,000, market 5 to 10 lower.
Armour paid $S.12 1-2 for a tank
age fed load OF Hampshire belted
hogs, and some other hogs brought
that price, which was the top, bulk
of sales $3.50 to sS.e7 1-2. The top
here was equal to the late top at Chr
cago, and prices for week have
been equal to, or within striking
distance of, Chicago. Moderate es-
Inmates for tomorrow here and else
where support the theory that the
country is not able to keep hogs
coming on a liberal scale, hence the
expectation that declines that have
set in this week will be checked to-
daily, receipts 1000 head. Native
spring lambs sold at $3.50 today and
a four car consignment of Arizona
springs also brought the top price.
Goats are 25 lower this week, Ango-
ra brushers available around $4,10,
and slick haired Mexicans $3.50.
Best Texas wethers are worth $3.50
ewes $5.25.

the surface water to enter the we'll.
If these precautions are observed
and all filth of every description is
vigorously excluded, one may feel
confident that the water supply will
be safe and wholesome.
"a large amount of disease is con-
tracted at the soda fountain. Small
amounts of saliva of those using the
glasses remain on the glasses, and
before the washing water is changed
it becomes, to variable degrees, adul-
terated with ordinary spit. 1t is
known that the germs of tuberculosis
and the infective agents of measles,
whooping-cough, scarlet fever. dipth-
eria and occasionally typhoid fever,
are carried In the mouth secretions.
The soda fountain, as is is ordinarily
managed, has for long time been a
source of annoyance to sanitarians.
At last, however, it seems that the
problem of operating a sanitary soda
fountain is solved.
Paper paraffin cups and saucers
are now being manufactured and put
on the market for Nlittle more than
half cent apiece. These cups in the
process of manufacturing are dip
ped into melted paraffin and are
practically sterile; they are put in
stacks, and in using them at the
fountain the clerks do not tou1n the
inside of the cup. or the upper third
of It, Customers who are served
with the sanitary cup drink out of a
cup that no one has used. and that
has not been touched with human
hands or lips. The spoons that are
used with the ice cream are dipped
into an antiseptic solution before
being served to customers. Fountains
using these sanitary APPLIANCES do not
spread disease. The patrons of soda
Fountains should patronize those
fountains that 60 10 slight expense
IN giving the public clean, harmless
drinks: this will encourage the more
general use of the sanitary cup"

Public Health Department
BY DR. J. c. MAHR. STATE COMMISSIONER OF HEALTH

An English physician for the past
eleven years has offered in connec-
tion with every vaccination showing
four good Yesicles S250.00 IL small
pox is contracted any time during
the next ten years. He also gave a
written undertaking when smallpox
was prevalent in his district TO pay
sum OF $4,00 to the person (re-
vaccinated) who visited the smallpox
hospital daily in the event of his con-
tracing smallpox. Up to Ithe pres
ent time. he has not been called upon
to pay either of these sums. Now
this question suggests itself: Why
should the city and county be un-
der the necessity of maintaining an
expensive quarantine against small
pox when successful vaccination will
prevent the same?,
As to what may be done to reduce
the chances of infection of 4 farm

the following procedures.
L. Guard against contamination
with human fecal matter by provid-
ing sanitary privy IN cases where
water closets and well constructed

4. Replace the bucket by pump
when this can be advantageously
done. When it cannot. use a bucket
requiring as little handling as possi-

THE WEEK In THE COTTON
MARKET.
BY Walter Parker.

~ w aAeCA eAA AACAe
New Orleans, June .11.-Based
an advices from the fields dated
May 25th the Federal Government
reports the condition OF the 1914
cotton crop 74.3 percent of normal,
as against 1911 in 1913. 87.S in 1911
and a ten year average. OF 80.4. This
in itself is enough to jar the -consdfn-
ing trade loose from big supply ex-
pectations. But the weather condi-
tions since May 18th have been
practically the same as before May
25th--flooded fields in the west
and not enough moisture in the
east. Consequently it is logical
to infer that the condition of the
crop is lower today than it was on
May 25th. In view of the fact that
the world will need in 1914 and
1915 the largest crop of desirable
cotton ever grown, current values
do not seem high to the man who
looks ahead
Nevertheless, contract traders
have been 50 greatly harassed by
the threat OF adverse legislation, and
| by the disturbed state of affairs in
the cotton market that they have los
stamina and staying power, and a
day or two Of no rain west and a
few light rains east have caused
enough long liquidation to shave
the top from contract prices.
Meanwhile, in spite of two holi-
days abroad. spinners in the week
took $4,000 bales, and exports con-
tinued to run on the fullest kind of
basis. Exports now promise to
reach 100000 bales for the sea-
son, which, in contrast with the sup
Fly, is the greatest amount on rec
ord.
'raoo cohfidsnce should return
next fall or winter. or at ths latest
next spring. With it's return should
come & tendency toward increased
consumption of raw cotton. The
supply of cotton now in sight is
hardly sufficient to meet normal
average needs. and any disposition
ITO increase needs would undoubted-
ly be reflected in the price per
pound. n
Congress, with a favorable report
on the Lever Bill before it, will
probably dispose of the pending cot
ton market legislation before ad-
journment. There are provisions in
thai bill which are not good either
for the merchants or the planter,

Kansas City Stock Yards. June II.
The army worm and dry weather

to Kansas City found outlet to both

had "grass two feet high at homa."
Best heavy natives sold at $3.50 to-
day, and steers to killers ranged
