Cincinnati, O., Dee. 23.-When al
bert Rentschler was arraigned be-
fore Judge Yeatman today on the
charge Of manslaughter the Judge
dismissed him, saying;

could have given. You rid the city
of a dangerous man and a darins
bandit. While l depore the loss Of

WOMEN

REFUSE TO BECOME PART
NERS AT DANCES WITH
MEN NOTIN UNIFORM

London. Dee. "a Cupid may yet
be responsible for bringing more men
to the colors than the British re-
crditing officers have reason to be-
lieye. This time Cupid works through
the Boycott and tango. IN the last
few days, with many officers back
from the front on furlough, after din
ner dances have been resumed. In
fact, it was really on the demand Of
these officers to have dances that
some prominent hotels resumed them
again after an entire absence Of such
amusement since the first week of
the war
And here enters Cupid and the
boycott, for scores of women refuse
to dance with any Cne not in khaSi,
or with anyone who cannot show
good cause for being otherwise dress
ed.
AS a consequence, many civilian
terpsichoreans are doomed 10 unat-
tractive evenings during the Yuletide.
Military dances hate been given
such names as, for instance, the
Jack johnson glide.

To PASS NEW
GRADUATED
TAX LAW
MEASURE PASSED BY REF.
ERENDUM WAS LOST BY
COURT DECISION

Oklahoma City, Dee. % Among
the laws that will be attempted in
the coming Oklahoma legislature viii
be graduated land tax Such a
law enacted by the last legislature
was lots in the courts under a tech
nieality At the general election last
November such a provision was con
tanned in a general revenue law that
was submitted to the voters under
the initiative but it failed to secure
a majority Of all the votes cast, al
though it was decidedly popular with
the voters who expressed Themselves
on the subject
The plan for a graduated land tax Is
popular in many sections in Oklaho-
ma because it is believed to be a
remedy for the evils of farm tenantry
as it discourages the holding of large
tracts under one ownership. The
number of farm tenants in Oklahoma
has been increasing in a manner that
has brought great discomfort and
much discussion. When Oklahoma
began as a Territory everybody was
a home owner The honesteads were
no sooner decided in fee by the gov
ernment than the tenantry evil began
to appear When the indian Terri
tory was admitted as a part Of Okla
homa the list Of tenants was more
than doubled at once owing to the
restrictions OF alienation of Indian
alloments. The percentage Of Okla
homa families that do not own their
homes was 54.6 in 1919 as compared
with 1871 in 1890 At this time the
percentage of tenant farmers in old
Oklahoma is 80; in former Indian
Territory it is 73.4.
The remarkable growth of Social
ism in Oklahoma is alleged to be
attributable largely to tenant farm
ing. vt is pointed out that in tn
cotton belt, where the percentage OF
tenant farmers is highest, Socialism
is strongest, while in the wheat belt,
where the percentage Of hcme own
ers is highest. there are fewer Soc
ialists. This argument, whether good
or not, appeals to the dominant po-
Iitical party in oklahoma as the
growth Of Socialism has made in
roads on the offices and shows an
increase in the legislature over any
previous year.

No FULL MOON ON
CALENDAR FOR FEBRUARY

Here is a bit Of lore about the moon
that is given out in plenty of time
for everybody to keep tab on it: Feb
ruary 1915, will not have a full moon,
a thing that has not happened since
1866, and that will not happen again
until 100000 years from February.
The roon in January will be full
the 1st and Goth In March it will be
fun on the 1st and Both again, and
that cuts off any possibility Of Feb
ruary having a full moon. 1t is an
odd combination of circumstances.
If there is anything in signs, 1866 was
peace year after a big war.
