activity by addressing $50 banquet
ers tonight in El-Jedel temple ban
quet hall in addition to hundreds of
Others who filled every seat in the
galleries overlooking the main room.
The banquet was arranged by the
Bryan Democratic club of Colorado.
Just before the banquet fifty or
more walters demanded of the cater
er in charge that he agree to certain
changes in the conduct of several es-
Establishments operated in this city be-
fore they would proceed with the
service tonight. This was refused.
The members of the club giving the
banquet then proceeded to serve as
best they could. The sight of prom
inent leaders Of the party carrying
dishes and trays caused much mirth-
provoking comment, in which Bryan
engaged with as much enjoyment as
the rest. 1t was not until after 70
O'Clock that speechmaking began.

MANY CLAIM
PLACER GROUND
(By Associated Press. }

REDDING, Cal. April 6.-Every
foot OF the river bed of Sacramento
from the mouth of Salt creek. two
miles above Redding, to the mouth of
Cottonwood creek. on the Tehama
county line, has been located during
the past week or two as placer
ground for dredging purposes. Two
dredgers, recently completed nea'
Redding at cost of $4,000 each.
are on the point of beginning opera
tions. They are built expressly to
clean up the gold from the bedrock
on the river bed. Two more are to
bc built on the same pattern, but on
larger scale.
Thirty-six placer claims were To-
Gated within the past two weeks
They cover strip of river ten miles
long, or the entire river frontage OF
the old Redding grant made to Major
Redding by the Mexican government
The eastern boundary OF this grant
does not conform strictly to the banks
of the river. The straight lines of
the survey leave little patches of
ground in the crooks of the river
outside of the grant Although these
patches have always been considered
as belonging to the state. they have
always been claimed by the abuttinR
farm owners. But now come the
miners. who have located the river
bed. They have laid claim to all
these patches OF ground as part and
parcel of their newly located placer
mines. Farmers living along the rlv-
er are indignant that land they have
used as their own should be jumped.

SMITH AT MoNTEzUMA.
conqressman's Speech, of Interest
From More Than One Standpoint.

@
Special to Times-Republican.
Montezulna. Oct. 15.-Congressman
Walter l. Smith addressed a republic
can rally in the opera house here
Tuesday night. The Montezuma band
PLAYED several pieces before the meet
ing, and a male quartet furnished mu-
sic after the meeting had been called
tb order by County Chairman Dickson.
Hon. w. r. Lewis introduced Congress
man Smith, whose speech was not only
of interest from a political standpoint.
but an instructive address, dealing
with the methods and enormous work
of congress-, and also what the speaker
termed the conservation of American
brain and muscle. Judge Smith dis
cussed the tariff issue in a general
way, and the democratic position in
regard to the tariff in particular.
Congressman Hamilton, in his speech
here last week. discussed h rules OF
congress-, the failure of the democrats
in congress to vote for the guaranteed
bank deposits bill, and the publicity Of
campaign contributions bill from his
standpoint. Congressman Smith re-
piled to Hamilton's arguments and ex-
plantations of those topics, from his
first hand information concerning them.
The latter portion Of Judge Smiths
address was devoted to a history AMI
discussion Of Taft's public life and
successful public service, and to a
comparison of Taft's achievements
with Bryan's abandoned policies of his
former campaigns.
