1t is we'll and fitting that the
choctaw metropolis should decor
ate, put on paint and frills, for
rarely does it fall to the lot OF a
Territory town to become the seat
of as many attractions as are bill
ed for our Sister Mac to look after
this week. First on the list is the
great territorial convention, which
will be in session Thursday. Del
egates to this convention can be
reckoned by the thousands, for no
more popular chord has ever been
sounded TO the people of the In
dian Territory, than has this from
the harp of Yancy Lewis.
Again, on Friday, an association
to be known as the Indian Terri
tory Bar association, is to be or
ganized.
On this day also, the members OF
the Democratic Executive commit
tee of the Indian Territory will
assemble aud transact their routine
aud any new business which may
come before that body, and also
designate the time and place for
holding the next Democratic Ter
ritorial convention.
Then, last but by no means least
in Importance, will be the session
of the members of the executive
committee of the Indian Territory
Press association, who will also
meet on Friday, for the purpose of
arranging for the May meeting of
the association at Vinita.

AN E|GHT-
DAY IN BUTTE
THE MOVEMENT INAUGURATED
PROMISES TO MATERIALIzE
IN NEAR FUTURE.
FAR REACHING Effect
IN LOCAL LABOR CIRCLES.
Said That Assurances Have Been
Given by Two Large Mine oper-
ators-Plan Of Campaign.

A proposition that has been unde dis
cussion for several months by the labor
organizations Of Butte and as attracted
a great share Of attention among the
miners and mine owners Of Butte prom
Uses to come to a head in the near future.
The proposition referred to is for the
establishment of an eight-hour day in
Butte. at the mines and in the shelters
n mills. The question of an eight
hour day is one that is being very active-
ly discussed ~ laboring men all over the
world. They argue that it will give en-
ployment to a great army of men, many
of whom are now idle. N Butte alone it
would mean the employment of from
$500 to 5000 more men in the mines, mills
and smelters.
1t is understood that several confer
ences have been held between some Of
the mine owners of Butte and the repre-
sentatives of the labor organizations and
tina. assurances have been given by two
trict that they are in favor of the eight
hour day. With this assurance. the
members of organized labor are sal to
be preparing a plan of campaign to
bring other mine operators into line. h
miners believe that if the eight-hour day
is a good thing for a few miners it should
be a good thing for all.
The matter has been very quietly dis
cussed on both sides for some weeks and
there is not the slightest fear of any
trouble arising. The few mine owners
approached readily acquiesced to the re-
quest of the committee n promised the
miners their support. With copper above
Is cents per pound the mine owners be-
lieve that they could readily grant an
eight-hour day and still make big profits.
The labor organizations are jubilant
over the turn affairs nave taken. This is
especially true of the miners, who some
years ago ~endeavored to induce the
Montana legislature to pass an eight
hour bill. The bill was defeated at that
time, owing to the fact that the market
price of copper was very low and the
prospects for silver were anything but
encouraging.

The extremely laughable comedy, "a
Circus Girl" was presented by the Ma
coy Comedy company at Sutton's theater
last night to a large and appreciative
audience. Never before has a
been so evenly balanced as the cast who
last night enacted this exceedingly fun
ny farce. The audience was convulsed
with. laughter from the beginning to the
end and showed their hearty approval
by compelling the actors to appear be-
fore the curtain after each act. Miss
Maude Sutton as the circus girl was in
her element and certainly made the most
of her opportunities. She was ably sup
ported by the entire company, collective
ly and individually, each person showing
a distinct success in his or her charac-
ter. This is by far the best company
and play seen at Sutton's for some time,
and will undoubtedly crowded
houses. On Thursday night the tavorite
old drama, Ten Nights in - BarroOm."
will be presented for four nights by the
same strong company.

MINERS UNION DAY.
CELEBRATION WILL BE ON A
MAGNIFICENT SCALE.
Stationary Engineers Will Keep Open
House-Labor Organizations
Will Turn Out. ~

Miners Union day will be celebrated to-
morrow on a magnificent scale, nearly all
of the labor organizations of the district
having agreed upon participating. In
most of the unions there is a fine for all
members who refuse to turn out, but the
Brotherhood Of Stationary Engineers has
adopted a novel method of securing an
attendance. The engineers will keep open
house all day in their hall and serve very
choice liquid refreshments to members
and their friends. The refreshments will
consist of choice Hennessy brandy and
bottled and key beer. Choice cigars bear
ng a we'll known. union label will also be
served to all. 1t is more than likely that
the attendance of engineers will be very
large.
