Guthrie is still the capital of Oklahoma. The supreme
court this morning handed down its decision IN the cap
al case holding that while the people OF the state had
rgt to locate the capital and while the enabling act was
not binding on that propositions yet the bill voted on at
the election held June II, 1910 fatally defective and
the election void Justice Turner wrote the opnon ana
while all members Of the court eoncured in the coneu-
sion reached Justice Hayes and Justice Kane each wrote
separate opinion stating their reasons for deciding rs
they did Chief Justice Dunn and Justice Williams con-
curing with Justice Hayes
Justice Kane based his opinion on the broad grounds
that the enabling act binding and that the contlacl
thus entered into between the United States and the new
State Of Oklahoma could not be broken without the CON
sent Of both parties
Justice ilaves conclils in the opinion to reasons
for holding the enabling act void if properly repealed but
differs IN his reasoning in holding void the initiated bill
voted upon in the special election held on June IL l9iO
A remarkable feature was that there was not dis
seltng vote as to the conclusion reached by the court
for while all the justices did not agree to the reason
ing vet they we're unit in holding that there had been
no election and that Oklahoma City had not been selected
as the capital Many times decisions OF the magnl-

The supreme court room was filled to overflowing
as the hour grew for the decision to be rendered and
the corridors we're filed with anxious looking men and
women AS Justice Turner had read the syllabus
the word was telephoned down town and pandemoniun
broke loose.
The Oklahoma Citv contingent went awav looking
disappointed. Attorney Ledbetter said Governor Has

FOXY JUDGE.
Takes Unto Himself a Bride
Saturday.

Municipal Judge Thomas Jury
stole a march on his friends Satur-
day evening when he was married
to Mrs. Catherine Burgow, at the
home of the bride. The contract
ing parties had most effectively
kept the new move a secret and it
was not until Monday that the
transaction became public.
Both of the people concerned
are well and favorab1y known here
and need no introduction to our
people. Both have resided here
almost since the beginning of the
town and have hosts of friends who
join the Miner in wishing them un-
limited happiness.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. J. D. Manly of the M. E.
church in the presence of a very
limited number of invited guests.
After the ceremony a wedding sup
per was served. They will go to
housekeeping shortly at the Jury
cottage near the city hall.

t threatened scarcity of iron.

The exhaustion of the worlds
iron ore fields he contends, is ia,
nearer than is generally realized
and he adds that the much talked
of failure of the coal supply in the
near future would be far less I'M
portant than a dearth of iron.
The writer estimates the world S
demand for iron during the next
ten years at 90, 100000 tons a year,
which means from $50 million to
$50 million tons of ore. Ore con-
tanning less than 20 per cent of
pure iron is not regarded as worth
smelling. 1t is therefore only the
ore fields yielding more than 20
per cent of the metal that enter the
calculation. The largest of these,
that of Kirunavara-L oussavara, in
Sweden contains, according to the
latest estimates, from 800 million
to 800 million tons of ore, which
would be sufficient to cover the
worlds needs for barely five years.
There are, of course, numerous
other sources of supply, but of late
it has become increasingly plain
that the probable yield of these has
been greatly -overestimated. M.
Sjongren, a Swedish expert, esti-
mates the world iron ore supply
at $3.50, OO0,O 900 tons. To test the
figure thoroughly will be the main
task of the international geological
congress which is to meet at Stock
holm next year, but if Sjongrens'
figures be taken as approximately
correct, and if it is further assum-
ed that the worlds demand will
remain stationery at 6O,OOO,00O
tons of crude iron annually which
is hardly probable, then the result
is that within 90 years all the iron
ore fields now known will be ex-
hausted.
This period may be heightened
by a more economical use of iron.

DDS, or the discovery of new ore
fields, but it would be foolish to
build too much hope on these pos
sibilities. The writer forsees a
very black future for the industrial

Knife Lake.
Canoe Swamped in Heavy
Sea---CompaniOn is
Saved.

E. J. Mulligan, who with Alex
Cummings had been up in the
Knife Lake country in their capac-
ity as forest rangers, arrived in
town Monday evening after par
ticularly hard trip, bringing word
that his partner was drowned In
Knife Lake Sunday morning.
The two men early Sunday morn
ing loaded their canoe for a trip
across the lake. They had gone
only short distance in the heavy
sea when their frail craft was
swamped and both men were pre-
cipitated into the cold water. A
stiff wind was blowing shorewards
and the two men chung to the
canoe, knowing they would drift
ashore. They were in the water
for nearly an hour and were only
a short distance from shore when
Cummings released his hold and
sank to rise no more.
Mulligan chung to the boat and
came ashore almost exhausted and
suffering agonies from his long ex-
posture in the chilly waters. He
collapsed several times. With the
aid of sun glass he at last sue
ceeded in getting a fire started,
dried his clothes somewhat and
warmed himself. He made the
trip from there to Ely, a distance
of sixty miles, arriving as above
stated.
Cummings was young man,
"a years of age and has worked
with the forest rangers for some
time. He came here from Cass
Lake where his parents reside. A
brother is also engaged in the ser
vice on the Superior forest, he
being stationed in the Stoney river
country. The brother was at once
notified by telephone and is now in
the city.
A party left yesterday morning
Tor the scene of the accident to re-
cover the body. The party is COM
posed of P. 7. Brownell, Leslie
Brownell, F. B. James, E. J. Null
igan and Undertaken Graham of
he Laing Hardware company.
The untimely taking off of AL.
Cummings has cast a gloom over
/ host of friends here. The re-
mains will be sent to Cass Lake
when found.

ious dates having been made to
cover counties in the northern end
of the state. At these sales nearly
375, 200 acres of state agricultural
land will be offered. Though the
minimum rate per acre is S., splen-

individual, and that certain re-
quirements shall be complied with.

BIG DEMAND
Worlds Demand for Ore
on 1O-Year Estimate.

There was a time in the early
days of the Mesaba when every
body talked of the inexhaustib1e
iron ore deposits. but that day has
passed. Great as the extent of the
known ore deposits are, the far
sighted consumers of the ore are
placing limitations OIL the supply.
The tremendous increase in the
requirements of the iron and steel
industry make the old and familiar
statement of inexhaustib1e supplies
of the ore inconsistent in view of
the prospects of still greater de-
mands as the years pass. S. Phil
1ipp. writer in the German rev.
lew Nord and Sud, said some time
ago that the greatest danger is the

MEN WHO FEAR NEF NATIONALISM.

In his speech at Bristol. Tenn, Mir Roosevelt mentioned some of the men who have reason to fear the new nationa5ism." He said:
 The men who are honest in Wall Street have nothing to fear in new nationalism. but the Wall Street man who wants to make a fortune by selling paper which is not worth anything is perfectly right in dreadipg new national ism. The man who has power improperly is right in dreading new natioralism. for we intend to shear him of that power.
 You many have observed, that the man who wants to sell worth less paper and the man 4 who wants to use his fortune impro- 'perly arerin the front rank of.op- ponents of the new nationalism. They, at least, have grasoed the idea.

MINERS AT ARIZONA CAMP DRIVING
 OUT JAPS AND NEGROES
The Phoenix Republican says;

The Phoenix Republican says: Friday evening a Japanese came rushing into the sheriff s office in a greatly excited manner and said he had heard two of his countrymen had been murdered at Kelvin during the day. He wanted to know what the sheriff had learned concerning the case. There had been no word of it at the sheriff S office. The RepubEi- 'can, in response to telegraphic inquiry, was informed that all was peace and quiet in Kelvin and Winkelman
 Yesterday. however, residents of Tempe said the story was rife in that town that there had been several expulsions of'negroes and Japanese by the miners of the Kelvin Winkelman district, who had announced that neither negroes nor Japs were wanted in that camp. It was stated that a young. colored man by the name of Thomas, a musi- elan, had been run away, as also had colored woman and several Japanese. one of whom had been very severely beaten.
 Either some one had started a false report or the enemies of the races named are proceeding so quietly as not to attract tkc attertiCl of the law.

 HUNT; INDIAN BEATS IT
(Gallup Republican,

C. N. Cotton and o. A. Vogel made a trip in MT. Cotton's auto last. week to Canada. Arizona, visiting Hon. J. L. Hubbell of that place. MT. Vogel had a bear hunt planned, which, with the assistance Of MT. Hubbell, was successfully carried out. The hunter was started for the mountains with an Indian guide. who was a Navajo. Of course it is well known by all oldtime traders that the Navajo is both mentally and physically" afraid of the bear. Upon reaching the hunting ground the Navajo says Shall 1 run when 1 see the bear?" He was told that he must never run from a bear. The game was soon found, but at long ran- ge, an old black bear and a year. ling. When within about 200 yards Vogel fired at the old one and succeeded in crippling her The second shot brought down the cub, The trail of the wounded bear was taken and when she was overtaken the Indian, contr- ary to orders. fired at her, where upon the infuriated animal charged the two hunters. The Indian took to the rocks, leaving his white companion for bear food. But aman with a good nerve does not make good bear beed. After firing three more shots into the body of the animal lshe fell dean about thirty feet from the hunters.
