Gill away
As Consequence There
Was No Court This
Morning

There has been considerable confus-
ion at the court house today in regard
to the holding of court. Judge GIL
was called away to attend meeting
of the districting and canvassing
board in Muskogee, and it became
necessary, therefore, to secure an or
der from the court of appeals, assign
ing Judge Parker to the bench in the
place Of Judge Gill. This order was
not received until almost2 o'clock this
afternoon
The Harlan case, which was to have
been taken up today, will not be call
ed today. 1t is expected that Judge
Gill be here tomorrow, and it will
then be put on trial There is a posi-
bility, however, that it cannot be TAX
en- up at this term Of court. The
term ends Saturday night, aud as it is
a long case, it car not be completed
unless it is begun today or tomorrow.
The probability is that considerable
OF Jne work OF this term must 60
over. Besides the Harlan case there
are the Newton Marsh and the Cass
cases, the former for murder the lat
ter for cattle stealing, both Of which
will take considerable time.
When court finally was opened this
afternoon the case of William Mont
gomery, charged with disposing Of
liquor, was called
Saturday afternoon late the jury
brought in verdict of not guilty in
favor OF A. A. Nigh, charged with
assault with intent to kill. Nigh was
defended by w. H. Kornegay.
The grand jury late Saturday after
noon reported IL indictments ana was
discharged, having finished its busi-
ness. Over hundred indictments
were found during the term.

CONVENTION Will
MEET TOMORROW
1t Is Still impossible to Say Who Will
Be Republican Nominee From
59th Delegate District.

The Republican convention for the
nomination of delegate to the con-
stitutional convention from the 59th
district will be held tomorrow in the
opera house. The convention will be
called to order at ii a. m. by j. H.
Murphy, chairman OF the district
committee.
10 is still anybody's fight for the
nomination There are two avowed
candidates, Dir. r. |. Allen of Central
ia and J. ii. Dixon Of Big Cabin, while
several others are prominently men,
toned. DR.. Allen will have Central
las votes, and Mr. DIXON those Of
Big Cabin, but the votes Of the other
delegates are unirs5Iucted. The sup
porters of both these candidates are
now ia the city, working in the in
uerests Of their candidate.
William Ham, a farmer living north
east of Centralia, is often spoken Of,
but he has declined TO make can
vass, and has even said that he does
not want the nomination. 1t is be-
lieved by bis friends, however, that
he would take IL If it we're offered
The Vinita daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1902-1913, 1906-10-08

him. Mr.. Ham is an experienced
campaigner, having served in the
Washington legislature, and it is
felt that he could carry the vote Of
the farmers.
The friends Of O. L. Rider, assistant
district attorney, are very anxious
that he be given the nomination, but
he has declined to accept the honor,
it is said, even If it should be offered
him. Another name that is frequent
ly mentioned is that Of G. B. Rogers
Of this city, who has many friends
among the farmers. Mr.. Rogers is
not a candidate for the nomination,
but would accept it If it were offered.
There are not few who still insist
on the nomination Of Rev. J. e. Per
shing, despite the fact that he has
said he will not run. His friends say
he should be drafted and made to ac-
cept the nomination.
With SO many candidates, actual or
possible, tomorrow's convention prom
ises to be an interesting affair. There
will undoubtedly be a large attend

John Holland. MhO Shot Bert
HOttinger, Is Still
at Large

John Holland, who shot Bert Hot
finger at dance at the home OF John
Lay near Ruby Friday night, has not
been arrested. tits supposed that he
is scouting until the extent OF Hot
fingers injuries is known. The
wounded boy is still ia a precarious
condition. The bullet, which entered
his hip and ranged upward, has not
yet been found by the doctors, tho
they probed the wound for six inches.
II will not be known for few days
whether he will recover or not.
There is considerable Indignation
against Holland In tie neighborhood
where the shooting occurred, as it is
generally considered to have been en-
tirely unprovoked and uncalled-for.
Holland, they say, is a good enough
fellow when sober, but dangerous
man when drunk, as he was Friday
night.

one-Plece Railwav Wheel.

A process for making a one-piece
steel railway wheel has been devised.
Tor a 33-inch wheel an ingot about 1G
inches in diameter is used, and with
steam hammer and hydraulic press
the ingot is forged until the hub and
web are brought to practically the
finished size It is then subjected to
a process of heat treatment. SO that
the outer portion Of the wheel is
brought to a rolling heat. while the
web and hub ara kept at a lower red
heat The rolling process brings the
wheel to its final shape.
