GOVERNMENT WILL WITHDRAW G0,0OO
 ACRES OIL LANDS
IRepubIlcan A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Claim to virtually every acre of withdrawn oil land held under the old placer mining law had been relinquished to the gov ernment at the close of the six months period within which such relinquish- ment could be made to, secure prior leasing rights to the property under the land leasing act.
 Officials of the interior department estimated that the government thus had secured clear title to more than 60,000 acres of the most valuable oil lands embraced within the public do- main, claim to which never had been perfected under the oil mining law before the land with withdrawn.
 In addition to coming into undisput- ed possession of this acreage the gov ernment will also collect, it was esti- mated, about $10,000, 900 in back roy alties, this royalty under the act amounting to one eighth of the value of all the oil produced during the life of each well. Its payment is made a condition of the lease in each ca SC.
 Of the approximately 100 claims or naval petroleum reserves relinQuished up to the end of the six months period to secure leasing rights under the act the navy department, it was said by officials today. will contest through the interior department. about 25 per cent. It is believed that this percent age of the claims will be found to be fraudulent in that the wells for which lease is sought were not producing wells at the time the leasing act went into effect or that the claims resulted from dummy" operations in violation of past law. Virtually all the naval reserve claims are located on what.is known as No. 2 reserve in California

SUFFRAGE HOPE LIES IN AN EARLY
 DECISION FROM
 SUPREME COURT
Antis Prepare to Contest Legality of Ratification in Three States; May Invali- date Elections
raenubIlcan A. p. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Anti- suffrage forces received another set back today when Justice Siddons of the District of Columbia supreme court refused to issue show cause" order against Secretary of State Colby, pre- liminary to the issuance of an injunc- ton to restrain him from proclainipg the nineteenth amendment law. The order would have required MT. Colby to show cause why the injunction should not be issued. The action was brought by Charles $. FairchildS, an official of the American Constitutional league, on behalf of himself and the organization,
 No Further Action Expected
 No further effort would be made to prevent the issuance of the proclama- ton, Alfred B. smith attorney for MT. Fairchilds. said.
 The official certification of Tennes- sees ratification was expected from Nashville tonight and Secretary Colby indicated that he would issue the proclamation as soon as he received Governor Roberts certification.
 The campaign of the anti suffrage forces now would be directed to an effort to obtain early action in the United States supreme court on the question Of the validity of the Tennes- sec ratification. MT. Smith announced. He said that he would ask a formal order of dismissal from Justice Sid 0OnS Tn Or0eT that ne FtliSHL dPpSdt lo the District of Columbia court of ap- peals with request that the case be certified directly to the federal su preme court and set for early trial
 Antis Still Hopeful
 The action of Justice SiddonS. paralleIed in a measure that of Justice Bailey of the same court last month, except that Justice Bailey granted a show cause" order against Secretary Colby in similar bill filed by the same plaintiffs. but after hearing, de- clined to issue the injunction asked on grounds of lack of jurisdiction and in sufficient showing. Tn dismissing the biH Justice Siddons said he did not wish to review Justice Bailey's action and that to issue the show cause" order would be an unwarranted inter ference with a purely ministerial ac- tion of the secretary of state Mir Smith said that he still hoped to ob- tfia a decision before the November elections. If however. the appeal should be carried to the supreme court it could not be argued until after the regular meeting of the court in Oc- fober with little likelihood that a de- cision would be reached before eiec- ton day. In that event, it was pointed out. the women Of the country legally would be entitled to vote. with the re suit. that should the supreme court later decide against the legality of the Tennessee ratification. the validity of the entire national election would be in question The suffrage forces also are challenging the legality of rat ification in Missouri, West Virginia and Ohio.

Recalls Days When
Stock Yards Land =
Was Brush Covered

w. S. Porter of Knox county was
a visitor at the South Side stock
yards Friday with a load of cows,
and while waiting for his check for
the shipment at a local commission
house told OF some interesting incl
dents OF South Omaha 50 years ago.
"When look over this large and
magnificent stock market my .mind
goes back to half century before
ard reminds me of the time | drove
over the very land ons Which the
stock. yards are located. Right after
the: civil war came west and went
10 work on farm down i'll Cass
county, remaining there three Yeas,
after which conducted transfer
business in Omaha, operating be-
tween there and Council Bluffs.
II remember going over the terri
tory on which the stock yards are
located, and it was not considered
even good farming land, being rough
and covered with brush. The coun-
try south OF here. in Sarpy and Cass
counties, was the first to be settled
on by farmers, as it seemed to be the
most desirable for farming purposes
in this section"
Omaha daily bee., 1920-01-31

glimpse ot a better way, we tried
uniting to depose the genius of mech
anism which sits upon our souls,
tried working together for high
purpose, we achieved miracles--and
are back again cropping in the old
murkiness. quarreling with one an
other and crippling the giant that
feeds us. We could unite and pro-
duce and sacrifice to protecl the ma
tion from,a danger from without; we
seem to have no appreciation of the
danger within, no vision OF the task
of meetinc,it. And where there, is
nc vision tie people perish.
Not long ago | read in atl account
of recently discovered manuscript
of the New Testament a remark Of
the Master to shoemaker at work:
Man if thou knowest what thou
dost blessed art thou, but if thou
knowest not thou art condemned
1t is very wonderful place
Gary AN extraordinary. demonstra-
ton of the sheer genius and energy
Of human beings, but one wonders,
having been there, having seen the
crippled mills, the dissatisfied work
ers,, the irritated management, the
losses in production, wages, profits;
the soldiers patrolling the streets
with charged arms, and groups of
revolutionaries plotting disturbances
and groups of officials planning sup
pressions-one wonders If those
who manage and those who work
at Gary do not warrant the con-
demnation of not knowing what
the. are about.
And yet having said this OF Gary,
! have said too much for indus ny ir
general, for there is new vision
coming in industry; new leaders are
at WORK; new experimentation is go
ing On. Industry in some Of rs
branches IS finding its soul--as !

Kermit Roosevelt's photographs, a.
ken in Africa, Are Looked on
as Mastsrp.eces.

In 1909, when the Roosevelt eXpedi-
ton went to Africa on the greatest
of all safaris, by the dropping out OF
the professional photographer ker-
nit Roosevelt suddenly was thrust
into the position of official photog-
rapher to the expedition. viewed this
arrangement with many misgivings-
because it was q task for maturity
and long eXperence-but the young
man made good. He made good l0J
per cent, not only with the big game
rifle, but in wild animal photography
as well.
NIr. Kermit's masterpiece is his best
picture of a whole herd of elephants
in high but rather open forest, Will
liam Hornaday writes in Scribners.
The light was none too good, but tor
tunately twas good enough. This real
achievement was scored from perch
on a low limb of tree, conveniently
placed to drop, the Intervening brush
out of view. Five tuskers appear in
the front line, and the elephants are
massed together in the composition as
neatly and perfectly as if the hand
of man had grouped them to get all
the flankers into the picture.
Col. Theodore Roosevelt was very
proud of this picture, and so were
the editors of Scribner's magazine and
the "African Game Trail" book.
