OKLAHOMA SENATORS FIGHT
THE JURISD|CTIONAL BILL

conspicuously absent from the sub.
committee print OF the bill as agreed
to by the various members Of the
subcommittee. Tho bill as agreed
to perhaps does not go as far as the
Garfield restriction bill but that can
b" explained because OF the attitude
Of Senators Curtis and McCumber
whose removal of restrictions record
has never excited favorable comment
for them. It was because Of them
that ;hc feature keeping the restric-
tions on the lands OF the freedmen
was inserted in the subcommittee
bin after Secretary Garfield had
agreed with the Oklahoma congress
sional delegation that the restriction
ought TO be removed from this class
Of citizens. The concensus of opin.
ion among the Oklahoma delegation
is that the removal of restrictions
would be the best thing for the ne
proes Because 10 would have ten
dcncy 10 throw them on their own
resources and make them work, a
condition OF affairs that does not
exist in Eastern oklahoma among
these people at present. Their
farms as general rule are the
poorest to be found in that part OF
the state, and in a deplorable state
of cultivation. Yet congress refuses
to see the wisdom to make these
very lands pay just proportion of
taxes in support of the government
Senator Curtis has many friends
in southern Kansas and in Oklaho-
ma. So n matter of fact most OF
his strength politically speaking
may be found in Topeka and southern
Kansas. All Of these people are VI

That part Of the removal Of re-

leasing Of oil and mineral lands
seems TO FIN long needed want
in East Oklahoma, where conditions
have been made almost intolerable
by the secretary. by his numerous
and crazy quilt" regulations which
permit him 10 revoke a lease with
out notice and fix the royalty at any
time he sees fit. The fact that
there has been nothing stable about
the departments attitude in this re-
spect has caused much complaint
and IL Is said has caused the bot
tom TO fall out OF the oil industry
in Oklahoma. This amendment was
inserted by Senator owen and will

of something over which he has no
control. 1t is not for him to ques-
ton the propriety of the order. The
evidence in this case shows that it
was not impossible for Mr.. Davis to
comply with the Courts order He
simply subordinated the Courts or
der to his own convenience and the
wishes of his bondsmen and advice of
his attorneys. 1t would have been
very easy for him to come here in
obedience to the subpoena, give his
testimony before the Grand Jury and
return to Carson City before the
14th. If he was detained here the
Court would, upon the presentation
of the facts. undoubtedly have ex-
cused him for long enough time to
enable him to go to Carson City, ap-
pear before the District Court there
for his arraignment and return here.
He did not see fit to do that, but he
disregarded the Courts process be-
cause his attorneys advised him to
remain there. There is no question
about the contempt in my mind, the
only question to be determined is
the measure of punishment that
should be inflicted. If person will
fully and contumaciously disobeys
the order of the Court, a severer
punishment should be melted out to
him than to person who disobeys
upon advice of counsel, as in this
case. Absolutely no showing has
been made why Mr. Davis could not
comply with the Courts order If he
so desired, and he is therefore ad-
judged guilty of contempt for his

RAILWAYS WILL
CURTAIL EXPENSES

CHICAGO. March 17.-Transpor-
tation rates must go up or wages
must come down. according to rail-
road managers. who say they have
retrenched and trimmed at every
possible point in the hope that wages
might stand. There is still hope
that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission will permit gradual ad-
vance in freight rates, which would
relieve the situation until traffic re-
sumes its normal volume. Retrench-
ments are still being made by most
of the roads. Every unnecessary bit
of material is being discarded and
efforts are made to weed out incom-
petents among the employees.
A slight Improvement in the traf-
fic situation within the last three
weeks has not been sufficient, accord
ing to the managers. to warrant a
suspension of the work of reducing
forces. Unless receipts increase, op-
Grating expenses must be reduced.
This means that more men will be

failure to do so. Inasmuch as it was
necessary to issue a bench warrant
to secure his attendance, and as the
County of Nye was put to the ex-
pense of sending an officer to bring
him here. that, of course, must be
taken into consideration by the Court
in fixing the punishment. The judg-
ment of the Court is that he be fined
one hundred dollars for disobeyins
the order of the Court and that in de-
fault thereof he be imprisoned in
the county Jail of this county for
twenty-four hours.

ENTERS SUIT FOR
RAWHIDE CLAIM

n. NJ. Vedder has begun suit
against George Il. Stowell and j. B.
Pruitt for the recovery of a one
fourth interest in a number of min
ing claims and lease in the Raw
hide district, the complaint having
been filed Saturday.
Vedder alleges that himself and C.
H. Botsford of this city entered into
grubstake agreement with Stowell
and Truitt whereby the latter agreed
to locate mining claims in Rawhide
and Regent and secure leases on a
share-and-share-alik basis. Accord
ing to the complaint, Stowell and
Truitt located several valuable min
ing claims in the Rawhide district
and also secured lease on the Owls
at Rawhide without mentioning We'd
der in the location notices or in the
lease. He also alleges that Stowell
and Truitt conducted an assay Office,
and real estate business at Raw
hide and that their proceeds were
$4,000. Vedder asks for one-fourth
interest in the lease and an equal
share of the proceeds I'ofe the assay

KINDERGARTEN
IN HIGH GRADE

4 strike which equals. if not sur
passes. any ever made in the Seven
Troughs district was made in the
kindergarten mine in the Seven
Troughs canyon the early part of this
week The new find consists of
three-foot ledge and it is reported
that the values will run as high as
those found in the Mazuma Hills or
the Seven Troughs Mining Company's
properties. The new discovery is
very important and demonstrates
very clearly that the ore bodies are
not confined to one locality in the
big district
c. H. Ellethorp, superintendent of
the Friedman properties, was in
Lovelock Wednesday on his way to
Reno for short visit. He confirmed
the report of the new find and added
that it was the best yet found in the
Kindergarten. THE discovery Mr..
Ellethorp continued, was made in
what is known as the lower Wine.
The Wine is few feet below the
2O0-foot level and at this point the
ledge shows fully three feet wide.
The significant part of the new dis
'covery is the fact that the values are
not confined solely to one part of the
ledge. but the gold is shot through
all the quartz. The formation where
in the values are found is identical
with that of the Fairview, ubt the
gold is much finer grain and is of q
much better grade. Since the picture
ore was found considerable work has
been done in the winze and thus far
the high values show all indications
of permanency.
When asked about the new mill for
the Kindergarten. Mr.. Ellethorp said
that the frame work was practically
completed and was ready for the re-
ception of the machinery, which is
expected every day. The mill will be
in operation several days before the
expiration of the contract time.
Another important feature con
corning the Friedman properties.
which was given out by Superinten-
dent Ellethorp, is the fact that a
number of cars of ore are to be ship
ped from the Fairview The first
wagonloads came in from the mine
Wednesday. The first car will prob.
ably be sent out tomorrow morning
and will be forwarded to the Sail
Lake valley smelters. There arc
about five carloads stored in tn,
drifts and crosscuts at the different
levels in the mines and this will al
be removed in order to make room
for further development work whicl
the management intends starting a
an early date. The ore which is be
ing shipped from the Fairyiew aver
ages close to $500 in gold and silver

RICH ROCK IS
THROWN ON DUMP

Seven Troughs Therien yesterday
cut the Mazuma Hills vein at a point
about 200 feet west of the Upper
Troughs, where high grade was be-
ing thrown on the dump before it
was realized that rich values had
been struck.
Manager Sandifer of the Seven
Troughs Mining and Development
Company had put two miners pros
pecting for the ore zone, which has
been opened a few hundred feet to
the north of his lease, and he was
amazed at the wealth disclosed by
the find. In short time the entire
camp had the news and everybody
rushed to the scene of the discovery.
Hundreds of free gold specimens that
had been thrown on the dump were
carried away by the crowd. Some
of this ore assayed $17,623 to the
ton.
These small chunks inadvertently
thrown upon the dump, are identical
with the richest streaks in the Ma
yuma Hills ledge.
The rich specimens are of blush
white quartz, permeated with gold,
similar to those taken from the
Seven Troughs Fairview. The coarse
having the same dip and strike as
the Mazuma Hills. Eighteen inches
of pay ore is exposed.

trustworthy assayer of this camp,
