THE rIReMeNs CONVENTION.
Action Taken Regarding Dryden Bill
Home Men Recoqnized and Elected.

l.. G. Slaughter and Hamilton y.
Bee have returned from Kansas city,
where they went to attend q three
days convention OF the National Fire
mems Association. They report the
convention the greatest in the history
of the organization. There were about
thousand people in attendance, four
hundred Of whom were delegates. One
of the most important matters before
the meeting was consideration Uf
the effects of the Dryden bill which
was introduced in congress last ses-
sion. This was bill which provided
that all insurance matters should
come under federal supervision anu
that the national government SHOULD
receive two per cent of fire Insurance
In the United States. About two
thirds OF the states of the union have
laws by which they collect this two
per cent from the insurance companies
and This money forms what is known
as an Incompetent fund used for the
benefit OF firemen, both paid and vol
untecr, who receive injuries while on
duty.
The will of the National Firemen's
Association as evidenced at the Kan
sas City convention, Is that this TWO
per cent be paid 10 every state and
territory in the United States instead
of being collected ana dispensed by
the federal goyernemnt as the Dryden
bill provides. The convention accord
ingly passed resolutions providing that
the associations of each state and ter.
ritory shall elect a representative ant
that these representatives shall select
a. 4. t..at hlt nal hnf
go to Washington during the next ses.
sion of congress 10 secure, IL possible,
a rider to the Dryden bill providing
! that each state and territory shall col
lect the two per cent insurance money
having full charge of the money col
lected within It's bounds. BY this
means Oklahoma and Indian Territory
will come in for their share of the
benefit, they having therefore. no pro
vision of this nature.
The president of the National or
ganization Is j. W. McNeill of Fayett
Vile n. c.. and the next place of meet
/ ing will be Roanoke. Va, which place
received the choice by a majority oI
| three votes over Oklahoma City after

Some Cotton Scheme.

i special to the Guthrie State Capi.
tai from Oklahoma says:
\ meeting of the cotton seed men
of Oklahoma and Indian Territory was
held in this city. but 20 reporters the
participants were as dumb as tcis-
graph poles. 1t was known that busi-
ness of an important nature was going
to be discussed by them, and it Is
since reported that combination has
been formed for the purpose of cutting
the price of cotton seed so that the
producer will have to sell his product
almost at loss to himself. Men
known to have been in attendance al
the meeting refuse absolutely to tell
what took place, which leaves the mat
ter in a suspicious light.
