A STUDY IN HEREDITY
Ey the Amociated Press
Oklahoma City, Ok., Oct. 3.—
Governor J. C. Waltons attack on
the legality of yesterdays elec
tion on a constitutional amend-
ment to permit an impeachment
session of the state legislature
waa in full swing tonight with
more than a third of the returns
in the state not yet tabulated.
His first gun in the after-election
fight was fired today when he sought
and obtained in state district court
a temporrary restraining order pre-
venting the state election board from
certifying the returns to the secre-
tary of state.
Hearing on the application to make
the order permanent was set for Oc-
tober 9th. Observers on both sides
anticipate a lull in the contest be-
tween the governor and the legisla-
ture until then.
The order was granted by Judge
Tom Chambers, an appointee of Gov-
ernor Walton.
In his application the executive al-
