THE COLOMBIAN TREATY

Doubtless tho president has his reasons for
wishing tho Colombia treaty ratified and for
making It's ratification the subject Of hi, first
message TO the senate. Probably he had his
reasons for wishing his message on that sub

ably the country egrets that no could not zee

frankly before the public.
The presidents reasons for wishing ratifica-
tion OF this treaty. which has met tho stubborn
and unyicding opposition OF republican senator's

scribed as treaty that dishonors the nation

executive. may he sufficient: but In order to he

NEW CANNIBALS

New Workers Tell of Ma.
tives Who Buy Wives
for Twenty Skins

NEW YORK. March 10.--Tales of
head hunting savages who worship
the devil and spend their lives gath
ering wild animal skins to use in
purchasing wives, were told today
by George X. Chcrris, famous eX-
plorer. and Harold Anthony of the
American Museum of Natural His
tory, who returned from southern
Ecuador
More than $500 specimens of rare
birds and animals were brought back
by the explorers, who spent eight
months in the widest and least ex-
plored forest lands. Among the
most interesting trophies are the
heads of two Javaro Indians, slain
In tribal battle the explorers wit
messed.
Among the mammals. most of
which were slain by natives with
blowpipes, were bloodsucking bats
and n fish-eating rat which resem-
bles an ordinary house rat and is
an excellent swimmer.
The pipe used by natives, Mr.. An
thony said was from 10 to 10 feet
long and an expert native by using
"bullet'--a little ball OF hard clay
could hit his object at distance
of 500 feet.
The explorers said there was a
shortage of women among the In
dians, although many men seemed
to have plenty of wives. Twenty
skins is the normal price.of a wife

c.RrAcE CONDITIONS ARE BAD.

Garbage conditions in the city bad. The
garbage Is not being gathered regularly In the
resident districts Nor In It being gathered In
accordance with the terms OF tho contract
under which MesEs Thompson and Shipman
are operating.
The season of the year is approaching when
the health OF the city imperatively demands
that garbage cans be regularly emptied and
their locality be made sanitary by the applica-
tIon OF suitable chemicals. This is only prac-
tical and reasonable precautlon, Disrcgarding
altogether the rules and laws OF health that
reasonable desire for cleanliness which is In
herent in every man woman. demands that
sight and smell be catered 10 In the manner
suggested
Tho usual conflict between the city and Its
garbage contractors is on, There Is arising
demand that the city take It's garbage dis
posal and conduct such business through the
board Of health. That may be the eventual solu-
ton, but we are not ready TO admit the
slty for H. To put the city into the garbage
moyal business would require a vast sum OF
money for equipment and personnel money
that could only be realized through n bond sale
This We think should be avoided Not only
because OF the considerable funds required to
establish tho system, but because 1t would en-
tail a monthly charge on the property owner
and open the way 60 certain graft OF either
pstty or grand proportions And we do not
like that.
Eventually It may be found 10 be the only way
nut but we repeat we not yet ready 20
agree that It Is. 1t is the contention Of The
world that the existing contract between the
garbage contractors and the city enables the
city to either have the garbage collected in ac-
cordanco with the provisiones of that contract
or collect damages because of the delinquency

A GREAT MUSICAL EVENT.

Through the public spirit and liberality OF
number Of Tulsa citizens there is coming TO the
city within tho noNt ter days the greatest nu-
steal organization in America. The engagomeht
Of the Chicago Grand Opera company In Tulsa
constitutes n musical event unparalleled In inc
history OF the southwest. Nothing comparable to
st has ever before occurred. II is distinct
compliment TO the city. the state ana the south-
west. And tho gentlemen who made the guar
antee whereby this event was made possible
arc entitled to tho unqualified support OF this
entiro section.
The magnitude OF this enterprise can be bettor
unders ood when II IL explained than an enure
train OF Pullman cars s required to bring this
attraction TO the city; that to stage its produce
tions an army OF local artisans and supports
is required Tulsa has never had such an OPP
portunity to witness the very best there In In
the world of musical offerings nor will 1t soon
have such an opportunity again.
The undertaking is exclusively u community
undertaking. Receipts In excess of tho guaran-
aecd sum required TO secure the engagement are
10 20 to the boys home. an institution worthy
she support OF all citizens. The Rotary olub
which is sponsor for this local institution, mas
put itself behind the musical ovort and under
taken to not only make It success, but so muoh
Of n success that there will be n handsome bal
ance for tho support OF tho boys homo.
Not often does The World permit itself to give
editorial approval to undertaking OF this
nature; and II In only because this undertaking
rises far above tho ordinary. ia worthy In all re-
rpects ana represents a community effort com
parable TO the construction OF a huge Industrial
enterprise. that II now makes departure from
Its established policy.
II urges tho citizenship OF Tulsa to not only
oo-opcrate enthusiastically with the Rotarians
In their efforts to make the musical festival an
appropriate success. but that the public OF the
city avail itself OF tho opportunity offered to
hear tho best there In In the musical world.
Tulsa has an established reputation In the
atricai ana musical circles of the east. II Is
known as one town whore music and art are
appreciated, and In this respect II does not rank
with cities of it's size but with cities OF ten times
its size.
This In very distinct compliment TO the cii'
xonship OF the city Lot that compliment DC
Justified by the magnificent manner In which
the citizenship OF this city and surrounding
towns welcome the presentation OF tho Chicago
