1 O'CLOCK EDITION
Ardmore, Wednesday, October %.

The question Of what should be done
for the Indian Territory at the com
ing session Of congress is being dis
cussed more now than probably at any
other time in the territory's history
Members of congress have repeatedly
asserted that when our people have
agreed upon what they want that they
were willing to act for us. This the
territory has never done, and until We
do our part we need not expect any
kind of legislation. The South Meal
ester convention to be held November
s offers the territory its opportunity
to decide these questions and declare
itself in a straightforward manner
The Indian, the white man, the stock
man, the farmer, the business man
and everybody in the territory should
feel enough interest in this matter
to at least be present on this occasion.
We are one common people, with one
common interest and why should we
not pull together? The cattlemen
realizze that the day of big pastures
and free grass in this country belongs
only to the past. The Indian, even
the most unprogressiye element,
knows that the hunting grounds are
all gChe. The farmer cannot keep his
children out Of school any longer, SO
II something is not done and that
pretty quick, he will move elsewhere
where he can give mis- family the ad-
vantages of education. The mer-
chants cannot build bridges and keep
the roads in repair when the farmer
is gone, 1t is not our purpose to
explain how we happened to be here
or why these conditions exist. We
simply know that these are facts. And
as to the remedy-we have learned,
as above stated, thar unless we can
tell congress what we want we need
not expect to get IT, Memorials to
the lawmakers have all failed for the
reason that they have been sent up
from different parts Of the country
WntIG ulHtltllA NhuNlNlNuo Il'Nhll anu
have mot been uniform in their de
mands Delegates heretofore sent to
congress have entertained as widely
different views as those expressed in
the memorials. Now the opportunity
i5 given for us to come together as
one man, full OF patriotism and with
the love OF country "A heart and de-
mand representation as American citi'
zens. Sufficient encouragement has
been given us by leading congressman
to lead us in the belief that the terri
tory will be granted a delegate at this
session. Whether one OF five repre-
sentatives be sent to look alter the
legislation, let them be united on the
one single issue Of securing legisla
tion providing for a delegate. Mass
meetings should be called and dele
gates chosen to the convention called

PIONEER PIANO MAN
A Wonderful Record Made in Arizona
by Mr.. Redewill.

A recent issue of the Prescott Jour-
nal-Miner has the following to say of a
prominent Phoenix citizen:
Mr.. Redewill has been engaged in
the piano business for thirty-eight years
and can tell some interesting remin-
iscences and thrilling experiences. He
is an entertaining converse tionalist, in
fact his success in the piano line is no
doubt due to his ability as d converse
tionalist. Mr.. Redewill is the pioneer
piano man of Arizona, having first Wis
tied the territory about twenty-seven
years ago, and has resided in Phoenix
for the past twenty-three years con-
tinuously. In conversation with a
Journal-Miner representative he said
that when he made his first visit to
Prescott he brought three pianos with
him, the freight on which was $50 each.
Within few minutes after the instru-
ments reached the town they were sold,
two of the purchasers being Michael
Goldwater and Murat Masterson. He
says that he has sold over 1000 pianos
in Arizona alone since that time besides
a good number in Mexico and New
Mexico.
"
ing man for the firm of A. l.. Bancroft
& Co. of San Francisco, and travelled
over all of the states and territories;
west of the Rocky mountains by stage
before the era of railroads. For Il
time he was located in Butte, Mon
tana, when that town was young and
money plenty, and scored a profit for
himself on instruments for single
month of $3.50. During the last SUM-
mer he was there he says it showed on
the Fourth of July, and during the fol-
lowing winter the tempera ture went
so low that it froZe the mercury III
thermometers. Mr.. Redewill says he
then thought it time to move, as COM
fort and health is of more importance
than money.
In the course of his business Mr.
Redewill has acquired property in
many of the principal towns of Arizona
in addition to large real estate hold
ings in Phoenix, so that he has a per-
sonal interest in the prosperity of the
whole territory, and he never loses an
opportunity to speak a good word for
Arizona.
If visitors come here Mr.. Redewill
sings the praises of Arizona in their
ears. If he goes away on visit he
never tires in telling of our wonderful
climate and resources, and constitutes
himself territorial immigration agent
He is u progressive citizen in every
respect.

of Consumption.
Consumptives need not worry about
their future any more. as the long
looked-fOr cure for consumption has al
last been found, and cure is now
just as sure as in ordinary disease. To
satisfy yourself of this you have only
to write the. Kalamazoo tuberculosis
Remedy Co. Ntd.) 551 Main St, Kala-
mazoo, Mich, of which the chairman is
Mr. o. K. Buckout, a noted member of
the British tuberculosis Congress and
also of the National Association for the
Prevention of Consumption, composed
of world famous men who have made
consumption-its cure and prevention
a life study. This cure is something
entirely new, and is called "Antidotum
Tuberculose' or the Copper Cure. and
is the only discovery we know of that
absolutely kills all tuberculosis germs
which cause consumption, as, unless
this is done, the disease cannot be
cured. AS the name of the remedy
tells, its chief ingredient is copper.
which metal has at last been found to
be the deadly enemy of the consump-
ton germ. ''Antidotum Tuberculose"
Is the original copper cure.
You can tell if you have consumption
by the coughing and hawking, by con-
tlnually splitting. especially in the
morning, when you throw yellow and

flesh on the body and muscles on the
bones until the consumption is all gone
and you are again a strong, healthy
robust man or woman
Don't doubt this, for the very same
discovery benefited A. H. Dinglev a
son of Congressman DingIey, of Ding
ley Tariff Bill fame, who went West
land South for relief and didn't get if
and came back with death staring him
in the face, and was benefited by AN

many of them almost infinitesima1 in
size. When the machines are made the
rev watch can be turned out as fast as
the larger sizes.
In watch making in the big factories
another factor has to be considered in
the production of a new watch that is
smaller than those turned out before;
this is the ability of the hands en-
rloyed to handle the parts. Half tie
work of matchmaking in the big fac
tories is in educating the hands to
:andle the parts. 1t takes months to
co this with every new watch that Is
designed and therein has lain the diff
Guilty of initiating the Swiss in the
manufa cture of small watches by
American methods.
In Switzerland the work is let out by
the piece. A workman will make just
enc part Of a watch, as his father did
Lcforc him. In the biggest American
factory, that of the Waltham COM
f'any, watch is turned out of the labor
of 5000 employees.

1t has been the boast of the Swiss
that their tiny watches could never
be made by machinery, and it has been
just as much the endeavor of America n
watchmakers to show their Swiss
rivals how sadly they underra,cd
American inventive genius. That is
why the new watch has been hailed
with so much pride.
The jewelers. say that there will al
ways be demand for watch smaller
than the las one people could obtain,
so before long still smaller watch
may appear. The demand for an Amer
lean watch smaller than that of the
25-cent piece size has long been felt,
especially since the custom came in OF
wearing chatelaine watches. The new
watch is designed for this, and also to
meet the demand of new custom
lately come into vogue with women,
that of wearing watch on a chain
around the neck like a locket.
Despite its diminutive size, the new
watch keeps as good time as the larger

AsPEY BOUND OVER
The Defense Claimed the Shooting
Was Accidental.

The case of A. X. Aspey, charged with
assault with a deadly weapon, was
heard in Justice Burnett's court yester-
day afternoon. The complaining wit
ness was John Weirer. the proprietor
of fruit stand deposited the post
office. He said that last Wednesday
night Aspey and another man passed
his place of business Aspey stumbled
against boxes in front of the store and
also against a cigar case. There were
some words, and after Aspey and his
companion had passed the place, Aspey
stopped and said he was going back
to shoot Weirer. He returned and
Weirer said he pointed a revolver di-
rectly at him. He turned to run to
the back part of the store when the
weapon was discharged. The bullet
went into the ceiling.
That was the main part of the testi-
mony for the prosecution.
Aspey was the first witness for the
defense. He said that he had been
drinking that night, and with Tibbetts
had started to the show. They had
changed their minds about going ana
returned home along Adams street. He
he had tried to show Tibbetts as they
were walking up First avenue, but it
was so dark that he could not see it
well. The first lighted place on their
line of march was the fruit stand, and
Aspey said he took the gun out of his
pocket again. This time Tibbitts tried
to take it from him, and in the scufIle
the weapon was discharged. Aspey said
he did not know Weirer, and had had
no trouble with him. Tibbitts told the
same story with the addition that the
reason he had tried to take the gun
from Aspey was that he was drunk
He said that Aspey had tried to show
him the gun on First avenue, but ii
was so dark he could not see it. Dis
trict Attorney Baker asked him if he
had tried to take the gun away from
Aspey there. He replied that he had
not. The district attorney then asked
him if in the minute walk around the
corner Aspey had grown so much
drunken that he was the more unsafe
with the gun. To this the witness
could make no satisfactory reply.
Aspey was held to the grand jury in
the sum of $500.
