State of Oklahoma Encouraging Crime Among Colored Youths. Youthful white criminals are sent to reform school while the same class of Colored offenders are turned loose because State has failed to provide for them. Will Legislature Act? Vol. 1, No. 25 State of Oklahoma Crime Youthful white crime same class of C State has failed to Will the criminal colored youth of Oklahoma continue to run wild and rampant and the respectable people of the state left unprotect- ed from this rapidly increasing class of citizens or will the state through the present session of the legislature provide adequate means for the much-needed correction of this class and protection to the general public by establishing a reform school for the delinquent colored youth? This is the question the colored people throughout the state are most interested in at this time and is a question which should be of equal interest to all law abiding white people of this great commonwealth. The state of Oklahoma has no law which provides for the correction of youthful colored criminals though ample provisions have been made by the state for the same class of whites. As a result the colored boys and girls under 16 years old may commit crime in this state without fear of the law because of existing conditions. For instance a colored boy or girl might commit murder and be convicted but that is as far as the state could go. The youthful criminal could not be sent to the penitentiary if he happened to be under 16 years old, and they would not commit him to the reform school for whites, hence he is turned loose to poison the minds of other youths, and encouraged by these deplorable conditions it is no wonder that this class of citizens are on the increase in Oklahoma. The federation of Colored Women's Clubs in this state have worked unceasingly and diligently to obtain some adequate legislation for this evil and injustice to the public, especially the colored public, and it might be said that during the regular session of the fourth legislature they met with some encouragement. A bill providing for a reform school for colored boys and girls was introduced by Representative Emanuel of Murray county and Representative Wyand of Muskogee county which was finally reported out from the committee on public buildings without recommendation except that it be placed on the calendar. A few days later, however, the regular session adjourned and everything on the calendar went dead. Since that time the colored women of the state have renewed their efforts hoping the extraordinary session would do what the regular session failed to accomplish, but unless something is done soon the special session of the legislature will adjourn without having done anything to better these conditions. The bill will doubtless pass both houses and even meet Governor Cruce's stamp of approval if it is ever again introduced and those who oppose the measure, if any should be found, should no longer be entitled to the confidence of the people of this state. Whether such a bill is possed or not the law abiding colored people of this state have certainly played well their part to insure the protection of the law to all the people of the state. What will you do Mr. Representative? Household Ruth Banquet The Sisters of the Household of Ruth spreaded an appetising banquet for the lodge members of the colored Odd Fellows of this city Tuesday night in the Cleaver-Cherry building. Quite a number of both sexes were present and enjoyed the feast very much. ```markdown ``` THE Oklahoma Encounter me Among Colo minals are sent to ref of Colored offenders are ed to provide for them.

Henry humane and sanitary officers in this city. The friends of the newly commissioned officers are pleased with this action of the mayor and feel that they will acquit them selves with credit.

TULSA·OILERS IN ACTION The Tulsa Oilers will cross bats in a desperate contest with a fast team from Nowata on April 27th at the South Main street park. The game promises to be a live one from start to finish and of course Tulsa expects to win. One week later the Oilers will meet and defeat if possible the white home team on the same battlefield. BASE BALL The Dunbar High School of Tulsa will engage in a heated contest with the Okmulgee High School this afternoon at the South Main Street park. The Tulsa boys are in fine condition and will carry the fight to their opponents. Colored Reading Room. Colored Reading Room. A special and interesting program both literary and musical will be rendered at the opera house next Wednesday for the benefit of the proposed colored reading room of Tulsa. Much interest is being manifested already by the citizens of Tulsa both white and colored and present indications point to a very successful affair. The colored people of this city are much in need of a reading room and Tulsa is too big and broad, too great and good, too liberal and magnanimous not to respond freely to this call. Every colored man and woman who can should go to the opera house Friday, April 25th to help swell the fund for the colored reading room. This entertainment will be under the management of Mr. J. B. Stafford. --- SUCCESSOR TO THEMUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY, APRIL 18, 1913 LOCALS Rev. Jas A. Johnson, pastor of Vernon A. M. E.

Crane of Chicago, who is known to be foremost among those whom the president has had under consideration for appointment as ambassador to Russia was a White House caller today and the executive offices were very quiet about the subject of the visit. Secretary Bryan, however, who was a caller about the same time, was asked about the incumbency of the present ambassador, Curtis Guild, and said that Mr. Guild had been granted a 2-months' leave of absence on account of ill-health. Mr. Crane was appointed ambassador to China by President Taft, but was recalled before having sailed from San Francisco. The incident made a lively stir. THAT SILK DRESS IS "TIN." Paterson Strikere Expose Secrets of "Weighting" the Cloth. PATERSON, N. J, April 11.—Not from the cocoon of the silk worm, but from the rusty horseshoes, scrap iron and empty tomato cans on the city dumps, comes the silk that makes milady's clinging gown and the bright hued necktie of her husband, according to the men who labor in the silk mills of Paterson. Rendered desperate by the two months' struggle to obtain their demands, the twenty-seven thousand silk workers began today a systematic "exposure" of the secrets of their trade. Led by William D. Haywood, a group of skilled mill operatives made public today the secret of the "tin dress." "You know what happens to the regular run of dress silk if you lay it up for a few months. It rots to pieces. It is the effect of the solutions." The silks most heavily weighted with metal, the strikers said, are the ones used for dress goods, linings, neckties and ribbons. Judge Allen Holds Court of Inquialition. WAGONER, Ok., April 17.—In response to many complaints of promiscuous violations of the law in Wagoner, principally by bootleggers, who it was alleged were becoming very bold in pursuing the unlawful traffic in intoxicants, Judge R. C. Allen last Friday resolved himself into a Court of Inquisition, and determined to find out for himself whether or not some of the many rumors that were afloat could be proven. He had many witnesses summoned, and behind closed doors, with the prosecuting attorney, applied to them a "pumping process" which it was hoped would get everything out of them in the manner of incriminating circumstances against any bootleggers. The day's work proved to be quite successful, as it developed sufficient evidence to cause about a dozen warrants to be issued against alleged violators of the liquor law. The cases were called Monday in Judge Dickey's court, the one against W. T. Smith being the first called for trial. The evidence was submitted, Published Every Friday at 501 North Greenwood Street. Entered as second class mail matter at Tulsa, Oklahoma. A.J. SMITHERMAN - EDITOR & GENERAL MORG H. M. WALLACE.

It is sometimes easy to fool your best friend for a long time, but as surely as God made apples you can not fool him all the time. Tulsa is not a hot air town, hence she is not building castles in the air. She is just gliding along in that quiet but progressive Tulsa way. The friendly relationship existing between the white and colored people of Tulsa is both edifying and gratifying. The best people on earth live in Tulsa. There is plenty of hard work to be done by the sanitary officers in the east end of the city and the sooner they commence the easier their task will be. There is no better regulated police department anywhere in the Southwest than the police department of Tulsa. The present chief of police is a credit to the city. It is rumored that Frank Carter, sergeant at arms in the house of representatives is polling his political strings to be appointed state enforcement officer. Indeed Frank is certainly an amusing cuss. The cesspool criticized by the World has been eliminated, but the dirty filthy cesspool of stagnant water at 114-116 North Elgin is still a dangerous public nuisance. Will the World please look into this cesspool? Our sanctum sanctorium has been visited by quite a number of well wishes already and they have shown their sincerity by subscribing for the Star or leaving job work for us. We appreciate sincere well wishers. They are already welcome. The colored business men of this city are a fine lot of race men and their patrons are all true race loving people, hence the remarkable success of our business men. There are no people on earth who love and appreciate race enterprise more than the colored people of Tulsa. The ultimatum from the Postmaster General to all applicants is "efficiency, not politics." All appointments will be made solely on merit. This will put the quietus on a number of poor, ignorant negroes of the Jim Noble type who are seeking responsible offices at the hands of the new administration. To place a man of this kind in charge of a postoffice would be an outrage to any respectable community and an injustice to the man himself. The demands for this age is intelligence and efficiency. The Tulsa World has raised a big howl (and a righteous one) about a filthy cesspool at Second and Elgin where a dwelling house sets occupied by a family with children who are attending the public school and bringing the health officers to task for their inattention to duty. The house in question is occupied by white people and The World says the cesspool of stagnant water has been there three weeks. Such health condition is certainly very deplorable and should not obtain in Tulsa. Some body is responsible for it and the guilty party should bear the consequence. The cesspool mentioned by The World is not the only one in the city that needs the attention of the health department however. Just two or three blocks from the place mentioned by the World reporter, at 116 N. Elgin is another filthy cesspool of black and green stagnant water in which even frogs and tad polls could not subsist and yet there are two houses situated therein occupied by two families both having children of school age. At both of these houses it is necessary to use bridges to cross the water from the sidewalk to the house. There are no doubt enough deadly germs in this one pool to infect all of Tulsa and the time is near at hand when the city will regret it unless something is done to eliminate this public danger. The City Commissioners is said to be a fine set of officials bent on serving all the people of Tulsa and improving the city in every way possible. We therefore respectively invite their attention to the civic conditions existing in the east end. Tulsa has the largest bank clearance of any town in the state. That is to say there is more money in Tulsa than any town or city in Oklahoma. Tulsa is soon to commence work on a new convention hall, land has been purchased for a six million dollar packing house, which will employ four or fine thousand men, Tulsa has more fine hotels and office buildings than any town in the state; Tulsa has the finest county court house in the state; Tulsa is the only city in Oklahoma now employing regular uniform colored policemen. Please remember too that Tulsa is under a democratic administration; Tulsa has the finest looking, biggest hearted and most efficient officers, both county and city, than any other town or county in the state. Of course Tulsa is the liveliest and best town in the state.

Napoleon was not the only great man born on the island of Corsica. Pascale de Paoli, one of the great patriots of history, was a Corsican. For more than two and a half centuries Corsica had been under the control of the Genoese. In 1755, under the leadership of Paoli, she threw off the Genoese yoke. For fourteen years thereafter Paoli administered the affairs of the island, and did it wisely and well. He brought about many reforms, and encouraged commerce and the arts. In 1709, having "purchased" the island from the Genoese, France landed an army of 22,000 soldiers. Paoli with a few thousand Corsicans met them boldly, but was badly defeated. With his little army reduced to 637 men and surrounded by 4,000 French, he cut his way out and escaped to England. The French conquered the island, but at a cost of more than 10,000 men, nearly half of whom were killed. Paoli remained in England twenty years. At the outbreak of the French Revolution he returned to Corsica and became military governor. He soon broke with the French, however, and returned to England, where he died in 1807. Eighty years afterward his ashes were removed to Corsica and entombed with great honors. Lamartine, the eminent French writer, said: "Corsica remains still in the place of a mere province, but Paoli assumes his place among the ranks of great men."

Taylor of Dulu The International Harvester Company of New Jersey Is On the Carpet in Kansas City. Most of the testimony in the federal hearing at Kansas City in the suit to dissolve the International Harvester Company of New Jersey went to show that the company is not operating in restraint of trade, and that it is not stifling competition. The hearing is before Rober S. Taylor of Duluth, special examiner. Five witnesses of the 350 who have been summoned by the government testified this morning. They were for the most part dealers selling products other than those of the company on the carpet. W. E. Manning, manager of the Moline Flow Company in Kansas City, said as far as he knew the field in the implement trade was open to competition. Dealers are not coerced into handling certain products and there is nothing to prevent them buying and selling what they please in any territory, the Kansas Citian said. Charles M. Janes of Oklahoma City, formerly with the International Harvesting Company and now with the Moline Plow Company, said that at the time he left the International Company he knew that the agency of W. H. Green, Creighton, Neb., was taken away from him. Edwin P. Grosvenor, special counsel for the government, asked if that was not due to the fact that the Harvester Company knew Green had strong opinions against trusts. Mr. Janes said he only knew that Green was slow in his payments, but didn't know any further reason for relieving him of the agency. TULSA. OKLA
