NIT ee on public lands will re.
port a bill to the senate for the
repeal OF the timber and stone
act which will contain provision
authorizing the sale of timber on
public land, under the direction
OF the secretary of agriculture
instead OF the secretary Of the
interior, as at present. This
change is urged on the theory
that titles to timber lands will
remain with the governmeu, the
timber only to be disposed of, as
is now done with timber in a
forest reserve. Operation Of the
law, under the proposed bill,
will be under the direction of the
forest service. The bill will
carry a provision placing the
money derived from the sale of
tim Der in the reclaim alton fund,
with the exception of 20 or 25
per cent, which will go to the
counties in which the imber
land is located, for the mainten-
ance of schools and roads.

Masonic Grand Lodges
Must Remain Separ-
ate Two Years

The Masonic Grand lodge Of the In
dian Territory will meet at Ardmore,
August IA and IS. In mentioning
this fact some newspapers have jump
ed at the conclusion that the coming
session OF the Grand Lodge will unite
with the Oklahoma Grand Lodge, and
also that the location of the Orphans
home will be decided upon, neither of
which is correct In reference to the
merging Of the Grand Lodges That
proposition is two years away, for the
Oklahoma Grand Lodge at its last
meeting, held last February, refused
to appointa committee toconfer with
a ike committee from the Indian
Territory Grand Lodge, which may be
appointed at the Ardmore meeting.
If the Indian Territory Grand
Lodge appoints such conmittee at
Ardmore the report will not be made
and acted upon until the next annual
meeting, and if the Oklahoma Grand
Lodge should appoint a committee at
its next session, in February Of next
year. it win be III February, 1908, be-
fore that committees report can be
acted upon
AS TO the location Of the Orphans
home The committee now having
that work in charge willreport three
sets Of plans and specifications to the
Grand Lodge at Ardmore, which
body will decide upon one Of them,
and then it will be another year be-
fore the location can be selected In
other words, the location Of the
Orphans home will not be decided
upon until in August, 1907, and the
merging Of the Grand Lodges cannot
take place until in 1908.

Ut was the greatest and most en-

unanimous verd 1t Of those hundreds
Of Republicans who attended the
meeting Of the executive committee
in Bartlesville Monday and Tuesday.
Although the banquet, the first
stated event on the program, did not
take place until Monday night, the
advance guard Of the Republicans be-
gan arriving Sunday and all day
Monday every train discharged its
load of enthusiastic partisans. BY
night the city was full Of them, and
the Almeda hotel lobby was packed
to capacity with hundreds Of men, all
prespiring, but all enthusiastically
milling for their candidate or their
pet project.
The big dining room in which the
BANQUET was held was thrown open at
10 o'clock, and the 250 seats at the
tables we're filled almost altogether
with out Of town Republicans, few Of
the BartlesvilIe people being able to
ind seats. After the excellent
menu had been fully sampled by all
present, Toastmaster Perry Freeman
Of McAlester called in an eloquent
speech upon the guest OF the evening,
Governor Frank Frantz Of Oklahoma,
Nho responded to the coast, "The
Forty-Sixth Star.
The governor was loudly -pplauded
when he rose to speak, and 1t was
several minutes before he could make
himself heard. AS at Vinita, he read
Ills speech. III was most excellent
one, and his confident predictions
Of Republican victory brought forth
cheer after cheer. He was accorded

REBELS HOLDING out
AGAINST The TROOPS
Fortress at SveabOrg Is Still in the
Control Of the Mutnous Troops
Reinforcements Cdning

Helsingfors, Aug. THE fight be-
tween the mutineers and the loyal
troops continued most Of the night.
The cannonade Of heavy guns vas
an awe-inspiring spectacle. The 10y
al troops seemed to command with
their guns the forts on Nicholas Isl
land, which were engaged in a duel
with formidable masked batteries
At 10 this morning they were still ex-
changing sbroadsides at ten minute
intervals. Thus far the number kill
ed and wounded is not ascertainable.
No cruisers are visible. More loyal
troops are expected here, but the des-
truction or bridges and tearing up
of the roadway delays the arrival Of
reinforcements. A naval squadron Is
reported to have sailed from Reyal
this afternoon for Syeaborg
The telegraph building here has
been ruined, and the barracks and ca
thedral have been badly damaged by
shells from the eleven inch guns.
The Socialists are alert and the town
people are in fear Of a cannonade If
the naval squadron arrives here. It
Is reported that on Sunday $4,000 SOL
diers took the oath to fight on the
side Of the people.
Heavy cannonadIng IS still In pro-
gress il Sveaborg, showing that the
fight for the possession OF the main
fortitications is still IN progress.
Troops are being hurried forward,

result Of widespread military con-
splracy involving the seizure Of the

cases of two insane women, and stated
that it had been determined at a

''they did unlawfully become insane
contrary to the statutes in such cases
made and provided So far as known,
these are the first two cases on record
where insanity has been judged a
crime.
The TWO women, Mrs. Ellen Will
