A TOWNSHIP FIGHT is
NOW ON IN OKLAHOMA

A meeting was held last night in
the Hughes neighborhood southwest
of the city, where there is a contro-
versy pending over the new townsite
on the X. & o. railway. 1t appears
that another townsite this side Of
Greensburg is being planned and one
faction desires it five miles this side
of the present site of Greenough and
another faction wants it between
Liberal and Greenough making it
closer to Liberal. The landowners
desiring the new town between the
two places say they will give the land
and right Of way to the state line to
get it but they must be assured the
promise and its fulfillment.
The fight is a warm one and as yet
has not been definitely decided.

STATE NEWS

TOPEKA, March -Four hun
dred thirty-five Santa Fe shopmen
here Friday were celebrating the in
auguration of President Harding in
state of gloom, brought about by
the receipt of notices that their SER
vices would be dispensed with after
March 8. The notices said the men
were being laid off indefinitely be-
cause Of dull business.
The lay off affects Is per cent of
the men employed in the repair shops
here and many married men and ex-
soldiers will find themselves out of
jobs next Tuesday.
Reports were in circulation among
the shopmen Friday to the effect
that the road was getting ready to
attempt to reduce wages by putting
the shop men on piece work but these
reports were denied by officials of
the road. Also there were reports to
the effect that another 15 per cent
of the remainder Of the shop forces
would be laid off the first of next
month.
TOPEKA, Kans., March THE
Workmen's compensation bill for the
state of Kansas which has been O
subject of agitation in the legislature
for quite long time is now dead.
Governor Allen and his private
secretary received a severe scathing
for their methods used in endeavor-
ing to have certain bills passed. The
attack was lead by Representative
w. P. Lambertson in the house earli-
er but the denunciation in the senate
which was much severer was headed
by Senator v. B. Van De Mark of
Concordia.
Senator De Mark asserted that it
had been his belief that the govern
ment was divided into thre branches.
These branches included an executive
and a legislative measure. His opin-
ion he said had changed since COM
ing to the legislature. He asserted
that the executive branch was also
running the legislative branch.
Members Of the legislature say
that Governor Aliens private secre-
tary has been very avtice recently
spending most of his time lobbying
for the compensation bill and neg
lecting his other official duties.
"The governor has sent for the
individual members to go to his Of
flee and those that he got there were
subjected to whatever pressure he
could bring upon them," said Senator
De Mark.

 ON THIS RAILROAD
L. & N. Official Testifies to Handicaps in Operating
 Local on Line

Montgomery, March 31.--( (Special.)-- Difficulties of handling traffic on the Birmingham Mineral railroad, which transports all iron ore used in fur naces in the Birmingham district, were given to the public service commission Thursday by E. G. Evans, in charge cf operations of the railroad for the Louisville and Nashville railroad. in the hearing of the raw materials case tefore the public service commission,
 Mr. Evans said greater hazards are faced on this line than on other Nraii- roads and that it is necessary to pay employees higher wages because of this greater hazard. He called atten- tion to the fact that within 20 miles at one point there are 30 railroad crossings. at which mineral line trains must make stops He said these cross- ings are so close together in some places d long, train does not pass one before stop must be made for an- other. He said the average cost of making each stop al the crossings is 45 cents. He pointed out that one time two trains southbound had q Eead-on collision. This caused some amusement, but it was explained that the tracks crossed and that while both - |'iiS WCtC pcuHu III luC general ul- rection of south the engines came to- gether.
 MT. Evans also said special equip ment is necessary for the handling of iron ore, which is expensfve, and that the wear and tear requires an enor- nous outlay of money.
 James BeWron, president of the Gulf States Steel and Iron company, was | witness for a short time during the day LThe fest i'm onV of Nh. x9.oc interrupted in order that MT Bowron might submit his statement and take a train to Birmingham MT. Bowron gave history of the relations be- tween the railroads and furnaces, say ing in the old days the railroads based their rates on the market price of the commodities, the rates going up and down with the prices of iron and other commodities, but this was abandoned when the interstate commerce com mission was given the power to make rates.

DEPUTY GAME WARDEN AGAIN ON DUTY-LAWS
 CLOSE OUT SPORTSMEN

Montgomery, March 31-(Sp SpeciaD- Warning was issued to all game war dens and citizens by John H. Wallace Jr, state conservation commissioner that the open season on all protected wild birds and game closed with March and that the season will not open on any kind of birds or animals until September l, when squirrels may be killed again. Commissioner Wal lace requested all game wardens to arrest any persons who may be found hunting out of season or against whom sufficient evidence of guilt is ob- tained.
 Commissioner Wallace also directed the attention of the wardens to the fact that the fishing season is now on and that any person using unlawful devices in the taking of fish should be arrested MT. Wallace said there is now in Alabama good supply of breeding stock of resident birds and game and that a fair season for oreed- ing and matching should cause the supply to multiply to such an extent as to meet the legitimate needs of sportsmen.
