PRES. MURRAY HANDS THE
KNOCKERS SOME HOT SHOTS

Tishomingo, l. T., July Rel
ative to the statements Of the repub-
lican politicians contained in the press
to the effect that Bonaparte had ad-
vised that the Enabling Act is uncon-
constitutional and that it attempted
delegated authority Of admitting a
state to the President, William H..
Murray, president Of the constitution
al convention had this to say to pour
reporter:
"since when did the republican par
ty become party Of strict construc-
ton Of the constitution Of the United
States? Their record has been that
they were limited only by the gen
eral welfare clause in the preamble
Of the constitution Of the United Stat
es. Now they say we must comply
with both the EabIir~ Act and the
constitution Of the United States, and
yet they claim that the Enabling Act,
passed by themselves is unconstitu-
tional. Moreover, the Enabling Act
framed the five congressional districts
Of the proposed state by the most pa
tent gerrymander, and then they say,
we must comply with that Enabling
Act and that compliance must con-
sist in part Of legislative appor-
tionment which contains no trace Of
gerrymander without furnishing US
the population upon which to make an
accurate and correct apportionment
/ observe also, they will refuse tt
submit any facts or make any re-
quests Of the committee appointed Il
meet at Guthrie on the tn day Of July
and two Of said committee appointed
Iby me are Henry Asp, one Of the ab
Hest men Of that party, and J. H. N
Cobb, another very able republican
both Of them delegates to the conyen
ton. Doubtless committee Of in
N dividuaI republicans might declin
to make requests, Or show any fact
Wherein the legislative apportion
ment is wrong, but the thirteen repub
licans in the convention cannot. b
any rule Of honor or any code gov
srning aifieial duty fai to offsr ot

wrong, and to point out specificall
the errors contained therein, and thei
failure to do 50 cannot absolve thel
the responsibility at least to thei
constituents and the party they r.
present, because they are members 0
that convention, charged with the dut
ns.d responsibility Of submitting fact
and figures in order to secure a jus
apportionment. This is certainly e.

if they fail it will be proof to all cit
izens Of the state that they have no
information upon which to base a
charge that the apportionment IS not
right. or that having such informa-
ton, they fail to perform their duty
as delegates to that convention. The
majority Of the convention desire to
have an apportionment based upon
populations, if We could know accu-
rately the population Of each county

PRAISE F0R EHIsRTAAERS
chiekasha Crowd Csls COMPLIMENTS
from Anadarko Press

Aaadafko Democrat
Tie Wide-Awake club from chicka-
sha rendered a very able program here
last evening under the auspices Of
the c. E. HustIers and Rustlers Of the
Christian church. There were seven
members in the group from Chicka-
sha. The first number on the pro-
gram was a piano duet BY Misses viii
la Rhone and Leila Goff, after which
Rev. J. E. Dinger, the minister Of the
Chickasha Chritian church gave a
lecture on borrowing trouble. This
lecture was appreciated by the audi
ence. Arta Gof then played violin
solo. He was accompanied BY Miss
Rhone on the piano. This young man
certainly shows talent as musician
Miss Rhone rendered a vocal solo and
was called back second time.
Little Miss Frances Hillman is to
be commended on her talent as a read
|er. She is about five or six years Old
AMI speaks as well as a grown-up per-
son. She was called back on the stage
the third time
| Little Miss Jennie Daniels IS a Vi.
olinist as good as any one could fiad
! for her age. She IS about eight years
old, and handles her violin as if sht
had used one for ten years.
/ After the violin solo by Miss Dan
Iiels, G. G. Gardner, assistant pastor
Of the Chickasha Christian church
gave a good reading entitled, "Hov
a church was built at Keho's bar
Then the audience was again pleases
by vocal soto BY Miss Rhone. Th'
closing number was piano solo b
Miss Rhone. This selection won th'
cake at the Chickasha Chautauqu'
last week.

CHANGE IN MUSIC METHODS.
Enormous Tax on Mental vigor and
Nerve of Modern Musician.

When we compare the thin.toned,
delicately constructed spinets and
clavichords with a modern grand
piano we can only exclaim in, aston
ishment What a change Is there!"
If We could have heard Paderewski
give what was considered difficult mu-
sic In those times on such an ancient
musical box, noting what outlay of
strength was requisite, and then hear
the great artist in the Sonata Appas-
sionate" on his concert grand, we
should be even more astonished at the
contrast between the physical endur-
ance required in those days and the
modern standard of power. Not only
Is greater strength required of a per-
former, but, as Francis Morton points
out in the Musician, as a consequence
OF the increased range of tone of which
a modern piano is capable the express
sive power of piano music has been
vastly augmented, making proportion
ate demands on the mental vigor and
nerve force, in addition to the tax on
strength.

SALT LAKE BANKER
SPEAKS WELL OF ELY
ARMSTRONG SAYS TO SEE CAMP
is TO BELIEVE IN HER
FUTURE.

To fully understand that Ely is 60
ing to make good it is only necessary,
says w. w. Armstrong, who has re-
turned to Salt Lake, says the Her.
aid, from a several days visit to
camp, to take a run over to McGill
and see how the work of building the
mammoth mills and shelters and the
town is progressing. Viewed from
the railroad in the valley at night, he
says it would be easy to imagine that
the twinkling electric lights were
casting glances at a population of TO-
900 souls.
The great milling plant is now so
far along in construction that there
is no question but that it will be
ready to run at large percentage of
its capacity by the end of the year.
Progress on the smelling works is
also beginning to make3a showing
that gives a good idea of the magnifi-
cent proportions of the works, while
the building of residences and other
structures for the benefit and accom-
mediation of the large number of peo-
pie that will winter there and be-
come, many of them, permanent resi-
dents, is being pushed with the ut
most V1SOT. ABOUT Hlly TeSlueHCeS
for the use of married men in the en-
ploy of the company have already
been either completed or are nearly
ready for occupancy, and the under
standing is that as many more will
be erected during the winter months
There has already been provided a
town hall, where meetings, dances,
ETC., may be held, while great eat
ing houses, ETC., are provided for
places at which the big army of men
may secure board.
Ely ITSELF" said Mr.. Armstrong,
docs not present the same boom
appearance that it did when every
body was bent on buying mining
ground and real estate, but for all
that, and despite the change in bust
ness conditions throughout the coun-
try, it is about the best camp in the
state of Nevada today. A great deal
of development work is going on at
the mines and prospects, and the big
companies are rapidly getting in
shape for the era of production
ahead. There is an air of stability
about the camp that suggests the big
operations and splendid prosperity
that is sure to result in the future. "

BANK CHECKS LITTLE
USED in GERMANY

Considering the progress made in
Germany during the last two or three
decades in all matters of commerce
and industry, it is a remarka able fact
that the system of making and receiv-
ing payments by check, SO we'll de-
veloped in the United States and other
countries, is so little known here. A
comparatively small percentage of
leading merchants and others in the
largest cities of the German Empire
use this convenient method of finan-
cial settlements. In smaller towns
payments are usually in gold, silver
or paper currency. Remittances from
one part of the empire to another
can be made by money order up to
the limit of 500 marks or $190.40;
amounts beyond that sum must be
sent in money letters or packages.
How the German public regards pay
ments by check is demonstrated by
the fact that during last year the
worlds trade of Germany required
circulation of gold and currency to
the extent of "A per cent of the total
sum involved. The German Govern
ment pays out annually for salaries
to officials the sum of 100000
marks, or $211, 344,O00 in cash.
Considering that a proportionate sum
must be withdrawn from circulation
and stored away for several days
every month, and that it will only
gradually be returned to circulation
during the next month by the pay
ments made by such officers, 1t can
readily be seen what advantage
would acrue to the money market If
such amounts were disbursed by
checks.
The principal objection to the
check system is that there are no
laws governing the issuance and cir
culation of the check. Upon the
earnest solicitation of financial ex-
perts and progressive merchants the
Government has now prepared the
outline of bill which is to be SUBJ
mitted to the next Reichstag The
proposed law is supposed to meet all
demands, also to assure positive pro-
lection to the maker as we'll as to the
holder of check. In order to make
it acceptable to the majority of the
people the bill provides for entire
freedom from taxation. 1t is hoped
that the passage of such a law will
make the system of paying by checks
more popular.-Consular Report.

COPPER MINING IN
WESTERN AUSTRALIA

In a recent speech the premier of
western Australia said that the min
ing industry of the state employs
over 5000 men, of whom, on De-
cember 81, last, 1911 were en-
ployed in mines, and the balance in
digging and prospecting. The gov
eminent has given every possible as
sistance to prospecting parties, of
which during last year it fitted out no
fewer than twenty-five. The high
prices ruling for copper and tin have
stimulated the search for those min
erals. From Kimberley to Phillips
River, copper deposits are being pros
pected and opened up.
The copper production for the first
three months of 1907 at Phillips
River alone is valued at 2O,989
pounds, while for the whole of 1906
1t was valued at 1920 pounds In
the Mt. Morgans district the Anacon-
da mine, for the first three months
of 1907, reported copper ore to the
value of 18,454, while the total re-
ported production for 1906 amounted
to 21,934 pounds. Mining has never
been more prosperous in the history
of the state. During the first four
months of this year the state pro-
duced copper to the value of 86,735
pounds, and tin to the value of 3d.
992 pounds. The output of coal has
slightly increased.
During the coming year 1t is pro-
posed to construct water works for
the mining and domestic supply of
Leonora district, and to make sup
ply of salt water available for the
Norseman district.

ROUND MOUNTAIN PUTS
BIG HYDRAULIC TO WORK

The first hydraulic giant ever put
into action in Nevada is now being
used on the placer fields and ground
is being torn up by the yard. The
first water was thrown against the
mountainside on Friday afternoon
and the event was made holiday by
the people of Round Mountain. All
stores and other business houses were
closed and everyone went to the
ground where the stream from the
monster pipe was tearing loose the
gravel and washing it into sluice
boxes where the gold was separated
from the dirt.
The giant was installed at cost
of $S5 900, but it is thought that two
months work will clear the expense
of the company in installing the ma
chinery.
