REIGN Of TERROR
Tulsa Man Is Hersewhipped by
VigiIantes Band.
Police Had Released Him for
Lack of Evidence.


Tulsa. Okla. Sept. s.-what the
leader of a band of 100 vigilantes was

manner. was a witness to the whip
ping after he had Travelled what he
estimated to be several miles in an
automobile, blindfolded.
On reaching the appointed spot, the
vigiiantes stripped Frazier to the
waist, tied him securely to a tree and
one of the band applied the lash with
a. long horse whip. After Frazier had
writhed in pain for several minutes,
the leader raised his hand and the
whipping ceased.
Warned to Leave.
Frazier refused to confess any
crimes and the leader called out an
other man who took up the. whipping.
Frazier again refused to admit what
the vigilantes sought to wiring out OF
him and a third man then took up the
lash, but to no avail. After having
been warned never to return to Tulsa
and to advise his friends to leave the
city, Frazier was released and was
last seen running across a. field, his
back a mass of bleeding wounds.
Frazier had been released from the
city Jail early in the evening after it
was found there was no evidence upon
which to hold him

Chicago, Sept. 3-WHEAT-Wheat open
ed somewhat unsettled with prices holding
within range of about one cent A small
break early was followed by a sharp rally
on buying by strong commission houses,
while the selling was>seatteher in the main.
Wheat opened at $1.23sz to $1.24 for Sep
TENDER, $1.24A to slips for December and
81. 20 for May, which was 15e lower to lac
higher than yesterdays finish.
Wheat showed more activity and there
was some increase in outside interest and
the market showed advanced supply with
houses with eastern connections free buy
ers. The local element also took the buy
ing side and there was sufficient news of
a bullish character to prevent any great
amount of pressure. The market closed
strong 21se to 2%e e, above the opening With
$l.2s12, and May $1.3212.
CORN-Corn opened dull and a trifle
easier. County offerings were light, due to
some extent to the recent break in prices.
September at 5312c; December at $3.50 to
J31Ac, and May at 57ssc, but slight rally
during the initial hour carried the market
slightly above last nights finish
Corn was under pressure early but when
wheat started upward, coarse grains fol-
lowed. Trade was not large and mainly
of a local character, the prospects of very
large arrivals of corn over the holiday be-
17sc above the optning, with September at
5S5sc to soc.
OATS-Oats opened dull, unchanged to
&c higher th-September at 34ke; Deem

slight gain early and the end of the first
hour found prices a shade to Nc higher

PLAN PAVED ROAD
w. C. Markham Outlines Pro-
gram for Next Twenty Years.
To Connect Every County Seat
in Kansas.

Visualize, if you can, a system of
paved highways. in Kansas, connecting
every county NSeat in the state and Of
fering several thru traffic routes-in
surfaced roads.
Then you will have the picture that
w. G. Markham, former secretary of
the Kansas highway commission, be-
lieves will become a reality in 1914,
twenty years from now. Markham,
whose home is at Baldwin, passed thru
Topeka this week. returning from
Washington where he has been the
last five months as representative of
the forty eight states in lobbying for
a federal aid bill
New Bill Is Favorable.
The compromise road bill which re-
Gently passed the senate and which
previously had passed the house is
very favorable to the states. Mark
ham declared. He predicted that the
bill will come out of conference with
but minor changes and become a law
coon after congress convenes.
The present bill carries an appro-
priation of $4,000, 900, $4,000, 900
OF which is to be available immedt-
atelY and the balance in six months.
Congress contemplates appropriating
500, 100000 annually until the system
OF highways proposed in the present
bill Is completed. Each state is to
designate as state roads Z per cent of
all roads in the state. In Kansas this
means nearly 5000 miles, or 1900
miles more than at present. Three
sevenths of these state roads are to
be Interstate in character and four
sevenths inter-county.
Total Of $4,000, 900 to Kansas.
The federal aid allotment to Kan
sas under the plan is to be 100000
annually which is to be matched with
state aid on a $3.50 basis. This will
require a constitutional amendment
and enactment of special legislation.
The federal aid will be available for
two years pending such legislation.

Payment VIII Be Made by County
Commissioners, Says RaIston.
Tuition will be free this year for the
first time in all high schools of the
state, according to an Interpretation
of 1921 law by w. C. Ralston, assist
ant attorney general. Such tuition is
to be paid by the county commits
sioners from the general fund of the
county where the pupils reside.
Because of the ambiguity of word
ing, this law has caused more confu-
sion than any other enacted by the
last legislature, Ralston said. He has
answered scores of inquiries from
county superintendent, county COM
missioners and others. At one time
recently Ralston had ten unanswered
inquiries on his desk.
Tuition has always been free in the
twenty-six county high schools of the
state. And by a law of 1905 tuition
has been free in high schools organ
lied under the Barnes act, provided
pupils lived in communities incon-
venient of access to other high schools.
