The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-03-15

San Francisco Chronicle, March 6:
During the past week there was noted
a decided slump in oil transactions on
the San Francisco Stock Exchange, but
there was an equally decided slump in
the stock market all around all over
the United States, so that the causes
for the disinclination Of investors to
buy are not local, but general.
It is being tardily conceded that the
action of President Taft in withdraw
ing so many thousands Of acres of on
lands in this State and elsewhere was
q wise and economical movement.
There is already enough land remain
ing in the oil districts of California to
occupy millions of capital in develop
ment for many years to come, and as
the older wells cease to produce, and
as the large surplus is worked off new
lands may be thrown open to develop
ment without disturbing the market.
The latest figures compiled on the sub
ject show that the total of stocks, in
GLIDING those held by pipeline COM
panies, was 38,OOO,OOO barrels on Janu'
airy 31st This is sufficient to answer
all present needs and to provide for all
emergencies that may arise, even in
the event of a great war in the Orient
or elsewhere, which would increase the
demand for petroleum and it's products
for war purposes.
On February LIST the field stocks on
hand in California were as follows:

HIGHEST OFFICIAL POSITION
EVER GIVEN To A NEGRO

their denunciation Ordinarily, the
rank OF assistant attorney general
would entitle Lewis to enjoy prece-
dence socially over brigadier generals,
captains Of the navy, the director Of
the Bureau Of American Republics, and
other officials. The assistant attor-
neys general have always been includ-
ed in the list of White House guests
at receptions, and while their wives
are not in the receiving line, they
usually occupy conspicuous places be-
hind the line. While it is understood
that Lewis will not attend these func-
tions, the opposition is none the less
determined that the appointment is
not to be confirmed without emphatic
protest.
William Henry Lewis was born of
parents who had been slaves, won dis
tinction at Harvard as a scholar ana
athlete, and served as assistant dis
trict attorney under President Roose-
welt.

And after the question OF where
the high school building is TO be To-
Gated and the money is available from

other question, who is to furnish the

by a home man or will the job be

business man in the lobby of the
Wilmington hotel last night. You

J. r. Pennington wishes to issue
a call for all democrats in Ardmore
and Carter county to meet at the
court house Friday night at 1870
TO make arrangements for a banquet
and celebration of Jackson day, Jan.
Sth. Jackson was the seventh presi-

Carolina and during his early life
had a hard struggle for existence.
A soldier in the revolution at thir-
teen under Sumpter he distinguished
himself throughout the war and the
subsequent events Of his life We're
triumphs, from the fact of his per-
severance and indomitable will.
On the Sth day of January, 1914,
he administered a crushing defeat to
the British soldiers under Packen-
ham at New Orleans and in later
years this day was made national
holiday by act of congress.
Democrats throughout the nation
will assemble on that night and do
honor to "Old Hickory's" memory.

The Boys Of Company G."

On Tuesday December 26, Com

Duran, had a team match, between
teams of -four men from Ardmore
and DWant Company G left Ard
more Christmas day, and the next
morning both teams went TO the rifle
range of Company II, about a mile
north of town, where they have
fine location for a range.
The match was for teams of four
men, and two individuals in addition.
The course included slow fire at
200, 500, 500 and Coo yards, and rapid
fire at 20O yards

Duraut company by 81 points ont Of

Durant: SO it will be seen that the
tea. were very evenly matched.
rhe weather was had for shooting,
as there was a hard wind blowing
from the northwest, and at times the
men were shivering so they could
hardly hold the muzzle of the rifle
on the target, so that the scores
were below what the men were
ordinarily capable of, but all suf-
fered alike.
The Durant team was composed OF
Sereeants Mitchell, Cordell and Cof
fey, and Private Nelson. The Ard
more team was composed of Captain
Hutchinson. Artificer CASTLE, and Pri
Yates CASTLE and Clark, and Private
Busch accompanied the team to com
pete for the individual prizes.
The boys say they had a splendid
time, in spite of the cold weather
and they are loud in their praises
of Company H's hospitable treatment
Everybody enjoyed the days work
and it is planned to make these inter
company matches between Ardmore
and Durant an annual event.
