HAYES THE STRONGEST
MAN IN CONVENTION

vention if he had given out such a
statement, he replied with direct cam
dor that he had but that he had chang
ed his mind on the matter after ma
turer study and consideration Of facts
not then in his possession, and there
was not a delegate in the convention
but felt that he was telling the abso-
lutte truth.
As member Of the legal advisory
committee,H ayes devoted much Of his
time to the study Of questions whose
constitutionality were disputed. His
influence in the convention was re-
markable, ana more than once has he
secured the reconsideration Of a mat
ter that had been finally disposed Of,
simply on his statement that there was
something in it that required further
investigation
Hayes was born in huntsville, Ark.
in 1876 but was reared in Jack county
Texas, from the age Of one and half
years.
He has Deen resident Of Indian
Territory for ten years living at Ry-
an, |. T. until moving four years ago
to Chickasha.
Hayes has declared repeatedly on
the floor Of the convention that he
would not be candidate for any Of
flee in the coming election, but his
admirers all over his judicial district,
which includes Oklahoma City, are
urging him to be candidate for jus
tice of the supreme court.

River is Searched in Vain for Missing
Man Mystery Surrounds
the Case

Yesterday morning w. L. Richards
was walking over the Rock Island
bridge on the Pauls Valley line when
he discovered near the center Of the
bridge a mans hat wedged down be-
tween the ties and in It some papers
five dollars and quarter in money,
some keys, a piece Of tobacco and a
pocket knife. Mr.. Richards, believing
that some one had been drowned or
committed suicide, came to town and
notified Chief Hopkins Of what he
had found. A crowd went at once to
the place and began searching for the
person to whom the things belonged,
believing that his body was in the riv-
er. The hat and other things were iden
titled as the belongings Of L. A. Puck
ett Of this city, a carpenter and con
tractor Mr.. Puckett had come to the
city several months ago from Bowie,
Tex, and had invested several thou
sand dollars in real estate here, hav-
ing built three houaes in Garland ad-
dition and buying another on South
9TH street and Arkansas He had been
living at the latter place with the par
ties who rented from him..
All day yesterday the search was
continued but without success. II sui
eide had been committed there was no
apparent reason for II that could be
found, as everything was going On nice
", his business affairs seeming To be
in good shape and his health good. He
was a single man seventy-eight years
old and had no immediate family.
There was nothing TO cause suspicion
Of foul play. He had left home with
only the money found at the bridge
on his person, having used all but $40
Of bis available cash in his real es-
tate operations, ami that remains ID
the hank.
Whether by suicide drowning or by
other means his disappearance Is a
mystery that perhaps time only will
solve. The river viii be closely
watched and every effort made to try
To find the missing man.

High Tribute to the Man who so Ably
Represented chickasha District

Oklahoman--
Could the vote for president Of the
constitutional convention been taken
on the last day instead Of the first
Of the session, or rather, could the del
egates have been as familiar with each
others qualifications and tempera-
ments on the first day as they were on
the last, there is scarce a man who
has observed the proceedings of the
convention but would lay his money
three to one on Sam w. Hayes Of the
city Of Chickasha as the unanimous
choice Of the convention.
Outside of limited number who
had met him in the trial Of cases in
and around Chickasha, there were few
delegates Of the convention who had
ever heard Of Hayes before the con-
vention. 1t was his first experience
in politics. Never before had he been
a candidate for offies or sat as del
egate in a deIib 4afp assembly; but
his unusual ability coupled with his
apparent sincerity and honesty Of pur-
pose gradually won for, him recog-
milton that resulted in making him the
strongest man in the convention.
Other members of the convention
were able by organization and manip-
uIation to accomplish results. Hayes
knows nothing about organization and
steadfastly refused BY turning deaf
ear to those who plead with him to
be come the leader Of movement to
wrest the control Of the convention
from President Murray and his follow
ers. Il came here to write constitu-
ton, not to play politics. I said Hayes,
and he adhered to TIT position to the
last.
During the struggle over material
matters such as county seats and
county boundaries Hayes took no part
in the struggle, more than ID see that
his own people we're taken care Of.
Although supporting the report Of
the county boundary committee he
presided over the committee Of the
whole during the stormy period before
the holidays when the county bound
airy report was under consideration.
and never throughout the entire time
was there a single member Of the op-
position who questioned mis- fairness
or the UNIFORM justice o. his rulings.
Repeatedly the leaders Of the organ
ization attempted to force motions
shat would shut off debate and force
vote, but Hayes stood firmly against
such action and ruled that every del
egate in the convection was entitled to
be heard on the question, and would
be heard 50 long as he remained in the
chair.
As a member Of the committee on
rules of the convention, Hayes became
the recognized authority on such qaes-
tons, and an opinion from him was
never questioned.
Absolute fairness Of public opinion,
50 long as he was convinced that he
was pursuing the course that would
be to the best interests Of the people
OF the state, he opposed the insertion
Of the separate coach clause in the
constitution, after he had given out
an interview declaring that he thought
It should be so incorporated.
When asked on the IlOor of the con-
