a result Of a suit for writ Of Re lew
filed in circuit court by C. C. Chap

across which the city recently laid out
a street. In his complaint NJ. Chap
man alleges that the city has proved "a
street used during periods ot high

ferry owners derive a profit from use
Of his lands City officials claim that
Mr. Chapman In former years mas de

Essay on Pants

Pants are made for men and not for
women. Women are made for men and
not for pants. When a man pants for
woman and a woman pants for q
man, that makes a pair Of pants.
Pants ale like molasses, they are thin,
ner in hot weather and thicker in cold
weather There has been much discus
sion as to whether pants is singular or
plural. Seems to us that when men
wear pants 1t is plural, and VIXEN they
don wear pants it is singular. If you
want to make the pants last, make the
coat first. Exchange.

low the action OF the senate this
afternoon In passing the resolution
by Senator Warren X. Snyder, which
usks an investigation OF the commits
EiOner'a record.
Senator snyder asked that his
resolution be taken UP by the senate
for its own investigation. but Senator
L. l.. Davidson OF Tulsa. who has
previously suggested In the senate
that the body is useless and that
there Is no longer IA need for the
commission, foresaw that such ac-
tlon might preclude the senate from
sitting in judgment in case i'm
peachment charges were filed, so he
moved to refer the resolution to the
house with a request for action.
There was not vote against the
adoption OF the resolution. As soon
as the senate was settled down to
business. Senator Snyder asked that
the resolution be called up. The
reading clerk read II In full. with It's
references to the recent letter which
Russell sent TO the members OF the
senate and including the references
IN The Cat" recently published. to
thNmembers OF the Legislative body,
Then snyder began his speech. which
was one OF the most bitter attacks
made upon public official ever
heard In the state capitol.
Snyder made references to the
purported contracts which Russell
has obtained from those districts
which would profit by the incorpora-
tion into the constitution OF "l2 A"
and further charged that Russelfs
son Is employed by the Tulsa law
firm of Blakeney a Maxey, which
appears frequently before the com
mission in representing certain OF
It's clients.
What action will he taken by the
