Oklahoma City, Okla. J. C. Walton,
fifth governor o Oklahoma, was re
moved from office Monday Sight- by
unanimous vote of the state s ;nate
court of impeachment, after his trial
on charges of corruption In office,
neglect of duty, moral turpitude and
general incompetence.
A formal verdict, ordering the re
moval, was returned after the execu
tive had been found guilty of 11 of
tho 16 charges presented. The vote
was '11 to 0.
Six of the original 22 charges con
stituting the impeachment bill were
dismissed by order of the court.
The court, by a standing vote, defiled
a motion for a new trial, which Gov
ernor Walton's counsel filed imme
diately after the verdict was an
nounced. The governor's removal, although
not formally ordered until after a ver
dict bad been returned on each charge,
was made certain shortly before 4
o'clock, when the court, without a dis
senting vote, found him guilty of abus
ing bis pardon and parole authority.
Forty-one senators, lacking only one
of the total membership of the body,
voted for conviction on tho clemency
charge, the first to be voted upon.
Senator Jack Barker, who has voted
consistently in the governor's favor
throughout the 1G days, of tho trial,
was absent when the final roll was
called. Tho articles of impeachment
were filed by tho lower house of the
state legislature, which less than two
months ago tho executive at the
height of his power had dispersed by
military force.

been acting governor since October
T., when the senate suspended Gover
nor Walton.
The vote on the pardon and parole
charge, which determined the removal,
followed with surprising suddenness
aftar the examination of tho last wit
ness. E. W. Marland, president of
the Marland Refining company, had
barely left the stand when W. K.
Disney, chairman of the house board
of managers, which conducted the
prosecution, announced that the evi
dence was concluded.
COURT TIGHTENS
BAN ON JAPANESE
TRADE CONFEREES
OPPOSE RAIL LAW
Esch-Dummins Resolution Is
Tabled by 2-1 Vote.
PRESIDENT REMANED

Are Advocated.
"Tht Mate's Wstch."
From the report of a shipping case
"The steaiuer proceeded on her way
until 7 or rather later, when a noise
wan heard its of a heavy body like an
anchor or a chain being dragged alon
the doi k from the funnel alt. It was
the mate's watch."
Washington. D. C. Tho Pacific
coast states won a complete victory in
(he supreme court Monday in their
efforts to prevent Japanese from ac
quiring any control over or interest
in agricultural lands.
Having a week ago sustained the
validity of the alien land laws under
which aliens ineligible to citizenship
wi re prohibited from owning or leas
ing agricultural land, the court took
the final step to make such legisla
tion completely effective by holding
lhal in the construction of such laws
the intention of the states must be
arsfullf considered' and that any
transaction which would have the i
lei t in any reasonable contingency of
giving such aliens any control over
Igrl CUltttral lands equivalent to owner
ship and leasing must be construed as
prohibited.
In testing out the alien land laws
el' California and Washington, attacks
were directed not only through pro
posed leases, as in the two cases de-
iiled last week, but also through
"Cropping contracts and attempts ly
ineligible aliens to acquire stock in
ompaiiies authorized to buy and sell
agricultural lands.
When confronted with a contract
Which .1. J. O'Hrien proposed to make
wilh J. Inouye. a Jnpanese, under
which the latter was to cultivate agri-
ultural land in Santa Clara county.
California, anil divide crops with the
owner of the land, the federal district
court for northern California could
find nothing in tho arrangement con
trary to the alien land laws. The
same court, however, when Raymond
Prick proposed to sell to N. Satow
stock in a corporation formed to own
and deal in agricultural lands, decided
that the ownership of the stock by an
ineligible alien was prohibited, Roth
cases were appealed to the supreme
court.
The Esch-Cummins railroad law,
passed in 1920, Saturday failed to
draw tho support of the Pacific for
eign trade council, which held the final
session of its threo days' conference
in Portland.
A resolution approving the statute
and requesting tho next congress to
allow it to stand, at least "until such
time as it has had a fair trial," was
tabled by a vote of 2 to 1.
Other resolutions asking congres
sional action in the solution of various
trade and transportation problems
were adopted unanimously as present
ed by the resolutions conynittee.
The only other provision which de
veloped discussion was tho attack on
the extension of the coastwise ship
ping provisions to the Philippine is
lands. No motion to eliminate this
part of the report was made, though
a discussion was precipitated.
William Pigott of Seattle, who for
the past three years has headed the
council, was re-elected as president
and Edward P. Kemmer of Tacoma
was renamed secretary.
The 1921 convention will be held
in Sail Francisco, it was decided, that
port having made the only organized
effort to get the next meeting.
The resolutions formally adopted
advocate the placing of the emergency
fleet corporation vessels in tho hands
of private owners, under a scheme ap
proved by ship operators and owners.
Sale of such vessels, possible at pres
ent, is approved and the contracting
of the remainder with American con
cerns for the operation of the others
proposed, such vessels to be sold ai
a stipulated prico after three years'
time. During this period agents' com
missions would apply to purchase and
deficits, to a certain extent, be borne
by the shipping board.
Improvement of navigation facili
ties, including hydrographic and geo
detic survey extonsion, addition of
UghtbOUM and buoy provisions, was
advocated, charging that insufficiency
of these facilities was resulting in
numerous accidents.
Repeal of section 28 of the merchant
marine act was advocated, providing
for import and export rail rates, lower
than domestic rates; government ac
commodations for news communica
tions from foreign countries at re
duced rates; removal of all federal
taxes on telegrams to relieve the com
mercial trade, which is responsible for
95 per cent of the telegraphic com
munication; amendment of the China
trade act, so as to place American
business there on a parity with other
foreign concerns; opposing the estab
lishment of trade agreements with
Russia until her condition stabilizes
and assaults on American business are
discontinued and restituted; and re
duction of passport fees from $10 to
$2.50 were among the chief actions
taken.
FIVE BAD GOBLINS
OXCE in a garden, long, long ago,
there grew a rose bush, and In
those days, so the fairies sny, the rose
bush had no thorn to prick lingers.
And the fairies say it never would
have had thorns If something had not
happened which made it necessary for
the protection of the little fairies that
every pretty rose bush should have
thorns.
In this long-ago garden one night
five dainty little fairies, after they had
finished their work tinting the flowers,
crept into the half-opened buds of five
roses and went to sleep.
They did not intend to sleep very
long, just long enough to rest before
joining their sister fairies and their
Queen In the dell for a midnight frolic.
Rut the little fairies were tired and
they did not wake up at the magic
hour when all the little magic folk
are abroad.
Out of their rocky doorways at the
midnight hour tumbled all the gob
lins, bent on mischief ns they always
are, and five of them ran out of the
woods Into the road, and. finding a
nice smooth path made by a cart
wheel, those live naughty goblins fol
lowed it.
The wheel path led straight to the
garden, right up to the gate and when
Pocket Must Not Bulge.
New Orleans, La. 0. D. Jackson,
federal prohibition enforcement agent
for Louisiana, Saturday ordered his
men to arrest any person with a sus
picious bulge in their pockets or who
carry a suspicious package.
"Place them under arrest, take them
to a police station and search them,"
were the Instructions. "If you find
liquor upon them, prefer charges of
violating the prohibition law."
1000 Aliens Face Action.
Seattle. More than 1000 Japanese
residing in King county will face civil
and criminal proceedings as the result
of the I'nlted States supreme court
decision holding that "cropping" con
trails with aliens are illegal, declared
Deputy Prosecutor Colvln. Mr. Colvin
stated that he was unable to estimate
tho total number of Japanese within
the state who will face eviction, but
asserted that the largo Japanese farm
colonies will be affected.
Greek Rebels Spared.
London.- instructions have been is
sued to the Greek military authorities
not to execute the sentences of death
imposed on the leaders of the recent
revolt among the provincial garrisons,
according to an agency dispntch from
Athens. The reprieve was said to
have followed negotiations between
I he government and a representative
of the Venizelist party.
Cholera Attacks Hogs.
Chicago, 111 There Is a serious out
break of hog cholera in parts of tho.
corn belt. Reports received Saturday
by a large grain and provision con
corn here from 20 points In the west
show that In the territory around 11
oi uiese points ine camera is ot a
serious character.

"This Is the Flower Garden and the
Tinting Fairies Have Been Here."
the goblins reached the end of the
path they tumbled into the garden.
"Oh," exclaimed one little goblin,
"this Is a flower garden and the tint
ing fairies have been here. Let's spoil
every flower that lias been colored.
The Queen will be sure to see it and
Scold them."
To every flower they went nnd
pulled off a petal nnd, of course, they
eftme to the rose bush where the five
little fairies were fast asleep.
The goblin that had climbed the
rose bush where he discovered the
sleeping fairies quickly scrambled
down and ran to tell his brothers.
"They are fast asleep and we will
hide their wands," he said.
"No, let us carry them off to our
home and Change the stones Into
tilings we want," said another.
"Yes," whispered the others; but
while they were climbing the rose
bush to get the wands one goblin whis
pered It would be great sport to pull
the rosebuds apart and let the fairies
tumble out.
To each rosebud went a goblin.
First he took the wand from the sleep
ing fairy and tucked it under one arm.
Then he pulled at the rosebud, and
amid the falling rose petals each little
fairy fell out on the ground.
The five bad goblins jumped and
away they ran before the bewildered
little fairies could pick themselves
up or know just what had happened.
Five little fairies jumped up and
rubbed their sleepy eyes, but It was
only a second before they discovered
that their wands were gone.
"It was the goblins," said one.
"They must have wandered into the
garden and climbed the rose bush and
carried off our wands."
"Look, sisters," said another little
fairy ; "those bad goblins came here
to do mischief. Look at the pretty
flowers that were tinted. Every one
lias lost a petal.
"They came to destroy our work
and happened to find us asleep, so
they stole our wands. We must hurry
to the dell and tell the Queen what
has happened."
When the Fairy Queen heard their
story she did not scold. She smiled
and said: "Wait and see what hap
pens. You shall have your wands
this very night, I promise you. Now
run along and join in the dance with
your sisters."
JIow long the merrymaking of the
fairies had been going on no one could
tell, but long before daylight streaked
the sky five unhappy looking goblins
came slowly into the dell and made
their way to the throne of the Queen.
Under one arm each held the wand
he had stolen just as he carried It
a way from the rose bush. They had
not been able to do anything else, for
when they tried to take the wand
from under their arm each goblin
found he could not move it or his arm
either.
All of their brother gnhlins tugged
and pulled at the wands, trying to
help them. Rut it was of no use, the
arm and wand could not be moved, so
they had to come to the Fairy Queen
for help.
Very shamefaced did those five
naughty goblins look as they ap
proached the Queen ; they did not have
to tell her why they had come. She
gently touched each arm that held the
wand nnd down fell the wand and
nway scampered those five goblins so
fast that their heels looked like tiny
pebbles tossing up and down.
They did not even thank the Queen.
All they thought of wns getting away
from the fairy dell nnd locking them
selves in their rocky homes.
Rut the roses had to be thought of,
now the wands were safe, for the
fairies always used them to sleep In
when they were nway from home. So
the Queen that very night started off
In her pearl conch with Its white mice
horses, visited all the rose bushes and
placed thorns on every one.
And now you know why the sweet
roses have thorns on their stems to
keep the goblins from disturbing the
fairies If they happen to fnll nsleep
In a rosy bed. For I am certain you
will agree that once a goblin pricked
his finger with a sharp thorn he would
scamper away and never touch a rose
bush ngnln.

WHEN TRAVELING
pON"T carry more hand luggage
with you than you can con
veniently dispose of. Remember that
you nre only entitled to a single seat
in the dny coach or a chair In the Pull
man car and If you have ever so many
bags and boxes they are sure to tres
pass on the territory of your fellow
travelers.
Large luggnge should be checked on
your ticket and sent to the baggage
ear.
Don't open windows regardless of
other persons. Always consult the
wishes of the others sharing your
seat. Don't permit the raised shade
of your window to let In blinding sun
light In the eyes of a passenger be
hind you.
If possible provide yourself with a
time-table and correct your watch be
fore starting on your trip so as not to
have to ask the conductor or brakeman
Innumerable questions in transit.
Don't leave luggage projecting so
that those passing in the aisle might
stumble over It. ion't put heavy lug
gage In the racks. This Is dangerous,
ns a sudden lurch of the train might
cause It to fall, and Injure those below.
These racks are Intended only for light
objects.
Don't disturb others by walking up
and down the aisle, nnd leaving your
seat for Innumerable drinks of water.
The one who travels with the least
commotion and who sits most quietly
Is the one who feels nnd looks less
fatigued after the day's trip.
Don't think that just because you
are off on a hhllday, everyone else Is.
You msy have time to loiter, but others
may be Intent on business.
