ST. Paul, Mimi, Aug Ill know
of no public question that could hafng
so many representative men together
in a convention as that OF consefva-
tion,s said Thomas R. Ship. secretary,
in speaking Of the coming congress to
be held in ST. Paul, September s. s. =.
s, and g.
"A glance at the list OF speakers i
sufficient To show that the eounnY's
best men are behind this movement
and l have no doubt the second con
gress is going to set a pace that win
be hard to follow In futaHe"
The list Of speakers. to which secre-
tary Shipp referred contains such
names as William H. Taft. president
of the United States; Theodore Roose-
welt. former president Of the United
States; Clifford Pinchot. Senator Bey-
eridge. Dodliver and Nelson, and such
representative men as James j. Hill,
Wallace d. Simmons and James r.
Garfield
There has been lot of talk about
politics in connection with the con
gress. That there will be in st. Paul
at that time members of the United
States senate, members Of the house,
governors OF many states and mayors
Of many cities, is sufficient cause to
say that there win be, some political
pow vows on the side. but it is the IN
tention of the officers Of the congress
to keep politics out Of the proceedings
as far as possible
insurgency is pretty wen repre-
sented on the program with Pfnchot,
Garfield and Senators Beveridge and
DoIIiver as speakers. This in itself
is refutation of the statements that
have been made concerning President
Taft's connection with the program.
1t was said that the president insisted
upon certain changes being made be-
fore he would agree TO speak.
When Governor EbeFhart returned to
st, Paul after heading the committee
which visited the president at Beverly
and rendered the invitation, he said
the president did not even AK to see
the program and made no suggestions
whatever concerning it.
The program win not be given out
for few days but It is known that
Senator Doliiver will talk on Cattle.
Food and Leather" Such a subject
naturally gives the senator a chance
70 say something on tho Payne-AIdrieh
tarifI law, but it is said on good author
lity that he will not take the opportun-
! ity Of doing so. The big fight made
by Senator nolliver Oh the tariff bill
was chiefly In connection with the
hide and leather schedules. However.
it is believed the senator will insert
enough ginger into his speech to make
it interesting.
The Natural Resources Belong to
the People" is the subject to be dis
cussed by James r. Garfield, former
secretary Of the interior Mr.. Gar

THE NEW CAPITAL PROPOSITION.

Oklahoma City's newest capital pro-
posal IS interesting. Briefly stated it
Is to give the state cash donation of
s2.OO0.000 and 20 acres Of land. the
contract to be made binding by $780,
900 bond. 1t may be urged that $780,
900 bond is not much Of hond for a
s2,0O0O00 contract, but we win let
that pass.
There are some features Of this pro
posal worth looking at. The first is
this: The site proposed was not men
toned IN any of the famous options
filed with the governor previous to the
capital election. On the contrary it is
state school land. and the scheme con-
templates purchasing this section of
school land from the state. selling II
out in lots, $4,000 .oo0 Of which shall be
given the state. Are we to under
stand that the state Of Oklahoma is
asked to donate to the Oklahoma City

an example Of how the people are sat

team also scored with the statement that

BOY CHARGED WITH
 STABBING A BULL DOG
Bert BrasweII Is Arrested Upon Com
 pIant of Owner of Canine.

Charged with stabbing a bull dog belonging to Lewis Shade, of North Eleventh avenue, Bert Braswcll. a news boy, was arrested yesterday afternoon by the police upon a warrant Accord ing to the story told the police by Schade, who swore to the complaint, Braswell was passing along a street near Five Points yesterday afternoon, being accompanied by a dog.
 When near the car tracks. the dog belonging to Schade is said to have engaged in an encounter with the dog following Braswell Braswell is said to have made no effort to separate the dogs by the usual methods employed in such instances, but is said to have almost immediately whipped out his pocket knife and to have attacked the bull dog vigorously.
 Just how serious was the injury in- flicted upon Schade's dog does not ap- pear, but bystanders and Schade agree that it seemed unnecessarily cruel treatment and Braswell now faces q charge of cruelty to animals.

HE IS NJ CANDIDATE
 FOR THE CONVENTION
One Prominent Democrat Makes His
 Position Clear.

Some men are trying to crowd their way into the constitutional convention where angels fear to tread, while oth- CTS are taking precautions against be- ing struck by lightning. Tn the latter class is C. B. Wood, deputy sheriff who insists that if Arizona gets no constitution until he makes it, it will be long time without one. Mr. Wood is willing to impart his views as to what the constitution should be but he wants none of the responsibility for the document; he wants no blood found on his hands.
 He offers the spacious plea of prior engagement, his official duties which he is paid to perform and they do not include the duty of being an access sory or an accomplice in the business of making a constitution.
 Beside, just now, Sheriff Hayden is absent and will be the mo-t of the time until the sitting of the constitu- tional convention, so that the under sheriff will not be able to devote a great deal of his time to the prelimin- sry contest of getting into the con Vention. He therefore makes an nouncement that he is not to be con- sidered by the slatemakers.
 It is thus established that ali the democrats in the county are not trying to get into the convention. as has been reported.
