ORGANIZE TO FIGHT
PROPOSED ABOLITION
County Judges and Court
Clerks Won't Relinquish
Places Tamely.

Special TO The World.
That one of the most vigorous po-
litical fights ever waged in oklahoma
is to be staged during the primary
election on the question of the adop-
ton or rejection of the proposed
amendment abolishing the office OF
county judge and county clerk, is In
dicated in the present movement
wherein statistics are being gathered
bearing directly upon the issue to be
voted upon at the August primary
Court clerks in every county In the
state, especially the east side, are
being asked to prepare reports on the
amount of business transacted In the
offices of the county Judge and dis
trict Judge during the last fiscal year.
Opponents of the amendment
openly declare that in the adoption
of the proposed amendment it would
enable district judges, so inclined, an
opportunity to build up "A powerful
political machine. In abolishing these
two offices, the district judge would
have to appoint a probate referee.
especially in the oil counties OF the
state where there are Indian lands.
The district judge would have the
appointment OF a court clerk and such
other assistants as are needed. 1t Is
said the proposed amendment has the
backing Of a powerful ring Of Demo-
cratic politicians in the state. But
county judges and court clerks are
to meet in Oklahoma City early next
month for the purpose of organizing
and 1t is their intention to carry the
fight to every precinct in the state.
Prepares Report.
Court Clerk Hank Reeves OF this
county has just prepared a report
which gives some idea of the vast
amount of business transacted in the
district and county courts of this
county. From July /. 1914. until June
80, 1915, 2s6 civil cases We're filed In
the district court Since July l. 1914,
554 civil cases have been disposed Of.
Since June ] OF last year 81 criminal
cases have been filed and Is criminal
cases are pending. Last year the
county paid out s3,670.05 in jury fees
while the fees of the office amounted
to $5,935.53. The jury fees paid out
would have been much larger, but
many criminal cases had to be post
poned because the court fund was
nearly exhausted at the end of the
first six months of the fiscal year.
There is not another county in the
state the size of Washington county
and many larger where greater
amount of business Is transacted In
both the district and county courts,
than in this county.

which was set Tor hearing Friday. has
been deferred until 1uescav of next
week. In the previous decision os the
court. the opinion written by Justic.
Tul ner in the case of H. ". Brown and
others VS.. NJ. S. Wilson and others
from the Muskogee county superior
court, 1t was held that an option con-
ferred upon the lessee was equally ac-
oessible to the lessor. Lease on a
certain tract of land for oil and gas
purposes had been made, and in the
contract 1t was stipulated that after
four months If the lessee had not
drilled n well nor paid delay money
that he could also surrender the
lease and thereby escape all further
obligation.
The decision of the high court re-
versed the judgment of the lower
court and remanded the case In the
opinion the court said:
