MURRAY AND TERRITORIAL
OFFICIALS IN A ROW.
FILSON WON'T TAKE COPIES
Demands Original Constitution and
Election Ordinance But Murray
Refuses to Give Them Up.

Guthrie, o. r., May s-The final
deadlock between President Murray
of the constitutional convention and
the territorial officials occurred today
when Murray offered to file one Of six
original typewriter copies of the con-
stitution with the territorial secretary
and a certified copy of the election
ordinance, and Filson absolutely re 7
fused to receive and file them.
This means that Governor Frantz
will not issue an election proclamation
and that Murray will have to call an
election if one is held. Murray Will
take steps Immediately 10 issue the
call. The best lawyers here believe
the matter has been so tied up by the
deadlock that no legal election can be
held August 6, and tnat the program
will be blocked.
II will not receive any document
except the original sheepsl1in copy OF
the constitution and the engrossed
copy OF the election OrulHdHcei was
Secretary Filson's ultimatum to Presi-
dent Murray.
Murray then informed Filson that
he would file nothing with him, and
walked out of the secretary's Office.
Members Of the canyassing board have
declared that they would not canvass
the votes under a proclamation issued
by Murray, considering such procedure
illegal.
Murray stated that in such event ne
will have ballots printed himself, and
proceed to have the votes canyasSed-

w. H. Johnstone, Prominent Ter

of the Constitution.

Bartlesyille, |. II, May ~ Special. J
William tombstone, a prominent and
influential member of the Republican
state executive committee, and one Of
the wealthiest men in the state, has
started vigorous campaign for the
adoption Of the constitution and the
naming of Republican ticket, To-
night he has sent out hundreds of let
ters TO members of the organization
throughout the Territory and promi-
nent Republicans generally.
He insists that the interests in
volyed in the present conflict are too
important to be jeopardized for mere
political expediency, and calls on Re
pubhcans allo over the state to send
delegations TO the state convention
instructed for the adoption OF the
constitution and full state ticket.
Mr.. tombstone has been urged to
enter the race for both governor and
member Of congress from the Third.
He has absolutely refused, and in
starting his campaign for the constl-
tuition renews his decision on that
point
In his letter he says:
"If the state convention decides to
not place ticket in the field and at
tempts to array the Republican party
against the constitution, which it is
we'll to remember means arraying it
against statehood, it will result in-

REPUBLICAN VIEWS
OF THE CONSTITUTION AS EX-
PRESSED BY SOME LEADERS.
A BUNCH OF HOT SHOTS
Comments From Few Leading Re
publican Papers and Promi-
nent Politicians.

The honest editor of the Falls Star
editorially says:
"We can't see for the life OF US why
some OF our brother newspaper men
are making such howl about the
Con. Con. and the districting OF the
new state. Boy, come down, we
would have done the same thing if we
had been in power"
And again this honest editor who is
not afraid to say in cold type what he
believes praises the constitution in
this editorial paragraph:
"If the people will read and study
the constitution, and compare it with
the other constitutions Of the United
States, they will find 1t to compare
very favorable with any Of Them This
old story-because "weididen't do it'
is all wrong; its simply hot air. "

"At a former investigation said
that | would have accepted employ

pany and 1t would have been foolish
for me to try to evade any questions
regarding loans"
Here Senator Bailey stated that he
did not believe that the people OF Tex
as demanded that their senators be
stripped and searched for private
transactions. When that time comes
they should get another senator, he
said.
Witness entered general denial OF
the charge that he had Influenced the
former committee or had used money
to influence the investigation He said
that he believed that all the members
of the former committee were honor
able, high minded men except one. He
said ex-senator Decker had written
letter in which he said that the in
vestigation had been a whitewash. He
stated that he called for meeting OF
his friends in his old congressional
district. 1t was held in my room In
the Driskill hotel" he said. All were
in favor of kicking out the investiga-

New York, Feb. 21-Rumors were
circulated in the financial district to
the effect that a receiver was about
to be appointed for the Equitable Life
Assurance society When the reports
were called to the attention of Pau.
Morton, president of the society. he
made the following statement:
Mr.. Morton pronounces the rumor
of an impending receivership for the
Equitable Assurance society absurd
and ridiculous. The person who put
it into circulation doubtless used it as
a basis for the recent decision of the
court of appeals reversing Judge Ha
Zel's decision sustaining the society's
demurrer in the case of j. Wilcox
Brown against the society. in which
Messrs Dos Passos, brothers, are of
counsel for the plaintiff The deci
sion In this case is upon very mar.

bearing upon the society's solvency."

THE GROUND GROUND
AS Well as the Forecasters Mixed on
the Weather

The weather has been ideal Never
within the recollection Of the oldest in
habitant has such poetical weather been
experienced. On ground hog day, which
was recently, the ground hog appeared,
saw his shadow, whisked his whiskers,
skipped into his hole and pulled the hole
in after him. The ground hogs move
ment, as alleged by the wiseacres, indi-
lcated that forty days of unpleasant
weather with snow and ice would follow
its return into the bowels of the earth
But the ground hog simply lost his bear
ings and got mixed. So has Foster; SO
has DeVoe, and so has Irl r. Hicks, and
so has Moore, the chief of the Weather
bureau at Washington, D. c.
When all these authorities are mixed,
the ordinary mortal may as we'll go
right along enjoying the spring time in
the midst of winter. 1t may be stormy
in March, but there's no need to worry
Who can tell when the ground hog will
reappear from his hole? That is an i'm
portant query.
