Amos r. Pinchot has taken the lead
in fight to drive George w. Perkins
out of the craftsmanship of the Ma
tional Executive Committee of the
Progressive party. On May 29 Pinchot
sent a 4,0OO-word letter to the men,
bers of the National Committee, to
Theodore Roosevelt, and to a few
other leaders, denouncing Perkins as
a menace to the survival of the party,
and calling on them to oust him from
the dominant position in party coun
ellis which he now holds. This letter
was marked "Personal-not for publ
cation" and it was not until recently
that the fact became known that the
periodic rumbling of discomfort with
Boss" Perkins had finally taken def
mite and tangible form.

ended yesterday afternoon when the

missed from the Circuit Court with
the costs to the plaintiff.

fed to come for the body, after MAX
ing arrangements with the widow.
The next morning the Ramsey ambu-
lance called for the body, armed with
an order from the widow, who in the
meantime had changed her mind. The
Hulett company refused to turn over
the body and Ramsey company insti-
tuted replevin proceedings. The case
was defeated in the City Court and
was appealed to the Circuit Court.
The Circuit Court dismissed the case
and allowed the defendant to recov-

Special to The Nesos.
Jackson, Miss, June 13.-Truck
growers is Mississippi who expected
to garden smaf-sized fortunes with
their tomato crops this year, are al
ready feeling the pangs Of disappoint-
ment. tF
The crop has been maturing rapidly
during the past week-too rapidly, in
fact, and this has caused a slump in
prices. The market depression is also
due in a considerable measure to the
fact that Florida shipments have not
ceased, and the crop at Jacksonville.
Tex, one of the largest tomato grow
ing points in the southwest, is in readi-
ness for market.
Crystal Springs growers complain
that black rot has caused considerable
damage to their crops, varying from
to rs per cent, and in few instances
this disease has caused total loss.
The dry weather is maturing the crop
too rapidly.
The cabbage shipments have about
ceased. Truck farmers made hand
some profits on this crop, and their
earnings will probably be heavier than
those of tomato growers.

INTERESTING CASE DECIDED
Supreme Court Rules on Property
Rights of. Surviving Indian Spouse.

ONIahOma City, Okla, Sept. 24.-An
interesting case that determines the
property rights of a surviving hus-
band or wife in the Usage lands and
royalties. was decided in the Supreme
court this week by Justice BleakmOre
It is the case of Mary l.. Simpkins and
others against David \. Ware. David
A. Ware, who is not a citizen of the
Usage tribe by blood was married to
Victoria Del Orier, an Usage woman,
i'm 1904 She was at the time of her
marriage a widow with six children,
and a grandchild by a deceased son.
The Usage lands were allotted in sew
crafty to members of the tribe in ac-
cordance with the provisions of an act
of congress of June 2S, 1906. In 1911,
Victoria Ware died. The question in
volved in the suit was whether Vic
turia Ware was owner of her Indian
estate prior to her marriage to David
\. Ware, or did she acquire the title
thereto, descendable and distributable
under the laws of Oklahoma, by vir.
tue of the provisions of the allotment
act Of 1906. The court holds that the
latter theory is correct and that her
surviving non-citizen husband inner
/ tied one-third interest in the estate
under the Oklahoma laws. The con.
| tention OF the plaintiffs, her children
was that the estate OF Victoria Ware
deceased. was acquired by reason OF
her Usage Indian blood, and was vest

question. Why? But the world do

tended to minister to human needs,
there come again the trenchant dicta
of the immortal Darius Green; III
birds can fly, why not I?' and in re-
sponse to this insistent demand came
the demonstration on the how of the
thing.
Probably the most important de-
monstration now being conducted at
the Oklahoma State Fair and EXposi-
tion Is the canning demonstration. Its
primal importance lies in the fact that
food is the basic necessity and fresh
foods are among the best preyenta-
tiyes of disease, and that canning is
a process in obedience to the econOm-
ic principle the broadened instincts Of
the bee, in providing a future supply
of food while the present supply is
cheap and abundant.
our forefathers were wise to this
Lygienic law, as evidenced by the
rafters festooned with garlands of the
golden pumpkin, the kingly apple, the
soothing and somnolent catnip, the
molient horehound and the saccha
rine mullen, and modern alchemy has
nothing on their homespun methods
The canning demonstration at the
state fair is worthy Of careful atten-
ton
The preservation of food against a
time of need suggests inevitably that
sagacious past master of provident
storage the bee. The apiary display
this year is a marked improvement on
the exhibition of previous years.
1t is still a matter of wonder why
every farmer does not employ this
wonderful servant to gather the most
toothsome of all sweet morsels since
the bee needs no alarm clock and his
industry has been tho standard for
ages and recks not at all of wage

even Sunday.
Why not by the honeybee's help,
reduce the high cost of living by de
licious addition to high living?

stand, for it will be one of the best.

Under the allotment act of congress
of 1906, every enrolled member of the
Usage tribe was permitted to select
three tracts of 100 acres each, and it
was provided by said act that all oil,
gas, coal, or other minerals covered
by the land for the selection of which
provision was made, was reserved to
the Usage tribe for a period of twenty
five years from the Sth day of April,
1906, and that all royalties from min
eral leases and all moneys received
from the sale of town lots and from
the leasing of grazing lands should
be placed in the treasury of the United
States to the credit of members of
the tribe and distributed to those ap-
pearing upon the tribal rolls.
In the case of the Oklahoma Rail
way Company against j. w. Morris,
the court in an opinion by commits
sioner Harrison reiterated the doctrine
that peace officer is not entitled to
reward for making an arrest while
on duty and extended the reasoning to
include the time when an officer is
not on duty. In the syllabus the court
said:
1T is contrary to sound public poll
cy for a peace officer, acting within
his jurisdiction and within the scope
Of his authority and line of duty to
receive rewards other than the COM
pensation allowed by law for making
arrests, whether such arrests be made
during the hours when he was on or
off duty"
In an opinion by justice Turner in
the case of the Pawhuska Oil and Gas
Company against the City of Paw

of the legislature in 1913, requiring
distribution of gas through meters was
upheld as a valid exercise of the po-
lice power of the state.

The entire state of Oklahoma is IL
terested in the state fair and eXposl
ton. This was demonstrated mos
fully today by the attendance, by th'
fact that the city is full OF visitors
and by the increased trade of the re
tail merchants and jobbers. In fact
the city is already entertaining thou
sands of guests, all of them here tc
see the sights of the big fair.
Others will come later, for the
fame of the exposition this year has
spread over the state. 1t will spread
still more when the early visitors re
turn home and tell their neighbors
that it is the best show of the state
greatness ever spread out for the in
spection of admiring eyes.
This was another ideal day and the
results in attendance were all that
oould have been expected. The re
ward of those who go to the fair is
great, for they see the wonderful
products of the state, all the newest
and best inventions of the modern
world. everything that has been done
in the arts and sciences, and in fact
an elaborate record of all the pro
gress that has been made during the
past twelve months.
This was state day at the fair and
the state was well represented. There
was music all over the place good
band music, such as is not always pro
yided at state fairs. The judging of
swine, Jersey cattle and poultry went
on today. Judges are also working
on the county exhibits and in the edu-
cational, fine arts and mineral exhib-
its. The better babies contest was
under way in the exposition building
Nothing stood in the way of the
racing program. This afternoon prov
ed that there is a widespread interest
in the canning industry, for there
was a crowd at the demonstration in
the culinary building.
One of the big things of the after
noon was the concert by Thayiu's
band. The program was one of the
best ever evolved by that genius of
bandmaster and it pleased an immense
thrOng.
The balloon ascension and the dar-
ing parachute drops are on the pro
gram for every afternoon.
II is both interesting and signif-
cant to note how far We have driited
