More Explanation Needed.

The ring candidates hold meet
ing at Isle Liable last week which
was very largely attended, but
which showed very little snthu-
siams-the reason for this cool
ness was tho audience was of tho
opposing faith.
At this meeting we are told the
assessor tried to explain his $500
assessment and brought out the
fact that Mr.. j. F. Franz had as
sesssd q dog $50 and that his idea
WAS to allow every white man to
vote and when they would come to
him aud valued their possessions
at $500 be would assess them for
that amount.
But hs failed TO explain how or
by what process those who never
won't to the Office and have moth
ing were assessed at $500. this is
the point that needs explanation
and Was not touched.

statement made by either OF the men
Saturday night was made by Sorrels.
VINO claimed that he acted in self
defense and that Denison had nothing
at all to do with the killing.
When seen this morning, Sorrcls
stated he, Yount and Denison were
en- route here from Madill, where they
had been to look for work; at the
noon hour they stpoped at the home
of farmer for dinner: after dinner
Sorrels and the man with whom they
stopped played a few games of cards,
Yount was watching the game and at
one time disputed Sorrel about the
result of some play. They exchanged
a few words, and the matter was
dropped until after they had started
to Ardmore. After driving a few miles
they stopped and the argument was
renewed. and Sorrels states that
Yount abused and threatened to kill
him. at the same time going TO the
wagon and taking his suit case ont.
Sorrels states that he thought nat
Yount had gun and that when ne
attempted to open the suit case that
he struck him a number of times with
his knife until Yount fell to the
ground and that he went away and
left him there not knowing if he was
fatally injured.
Sorrels states that at the time Of
the difficulty Denison was on the op-
posite side of the wagon and that be-
fore he could reach him, YOunt had
fallen.
The remains of Yount were brought
here Saturday night and prepared for
burial and We're inferred at Rose Hill
cemetery Sunday afternoon.
Undertaken Bridgman, who prepar-
ed the remains for burial, stated
that there We're twelve wounds on the
body and that either one of nine .
the wounds would have produced
death The head was almost severed
from the body and the wound indi-
Gated that a number of strokes had
been made at the throat There were
also a number of wounds over the
body, one wound seven inches in
length on the left side cut two ribs.
The wounds were all deep and We're
evidently made with knife with It
long blade. Sorrels gave Mr.. Garrett
the knife with which he said he did
the killing, the blade was probably
two inches in length and was very
sharp. Sorrels who is a carpenter and
laborer has lived here since about the
first of the year. coming here from
Limestone county. Texas. He has a
family. Yount had lived here only a
few months, coming from North Caro-
lima. Denison who is held in the case
is also a resident of Ardmore Sor-
rels stated that he and Yount had
been friends for the past few mcnths
and that they had never had any trou-
ble prior to the trouble SATURDAY.. that
led to the killing.
County Attorney Mathers and his
assistant, w. R. Bleakmore, went to
Provence today to Investigate the
case. They will conduct the 'ose-
cution.

VOTE ON THE
CANADIAN BILL
Rejection Of the Root Amend.
ment Encourages Friends
Of Reciprocity
PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICANS
HOPE FOR REVISION
BY The United Press.

WASHINGTON, June 27-Pleased
with the dispatch with which the Sem
ate disposed Of the Root amendment
to the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment, rejecting it without a roll call,
Chairman Penrose (Rep., Pal of the
finance committee, today announced
that he would hereafter attempt daily
to secure unanimous consent to fix
a time for a final vote on the entire
agreement.
Alive to their strategic vantage in
controlling the situation Senate pro-
gressives were today unwilling to
agree to any time for VOTE stand
pat Republicans have practically
agreed to Penrose's plan to set a
time. and will probably agree as far
as possible not to debate the meas
ure. in order to save time.
The Democrats are partially agreed
on this point The progressives,
however. today expressed the belief
that there might be a chance to Sc
cure some tariff revision, and would
not commit themselves on any date.
II was stated today that Penrose
would shortly ask that the Senate
hold daily sessions beginning at II
o'clock instead of noon or 2 p. M
as heretofore, in order to expedite
business.
