A Jury THAT STARTED
SOMETHING

That successful jury strike at
St. Louis is but one of the signs
of the times.
For years and years juries have
permitted Judges to usurp their
powers and to decide cases from
the bench, taking the case from
the jury.
The rights of many have time
and again been deliberately
usurped. The usurpers had the
gall to usurp, and the people let
them get away with.
One. reason for this is that too
often the people don't know what
their rights are. When they find
out, they insist on them.
And they are gradually finding
Probably one man on the jury

TAFTS ECONOMY SCHEME
NOW NEARING FRUITION
Nearly 100000 May Be Expended By September l.
Installing Uncle Sans Money y-saving Machinery

President Taft's economy scheme,
which has been under way for many
months, is nearing fruition, according to
d. Norton to the Committee on Appro-
priations Of the House.
1t is proposed to expend close to 100000
by September l in installing Uncle Sans
machinery for saving money. The sun
dry civil appropriation bill, which was
reported to the House yesterday, gives
the President $4,000 for the employment
of accountants and experts from official
and private life to effectively inquire into
the methods of transacting the public
business during the next fiscal year.
Secretary Norton, in his appearance
before the committee. suggested that a
larger sum was needed, but 1t appears
that the committee considered lesser
amount sufficient, in view OF the fact
that a full 10000 has been at the dis
posal OF the commission during the pres
ent fiscal year. But 5000 OF this sum
had been expended up to February /. 1t
is likely that, in order to carry out the
elaborate plans outlined by the commits
sion, there will be heavy expenditures
before July l.

stock now worth $4,000: 800 in

Scores of illustrations of the
money made in good oil companies
can be cited to show that oil is the
best investment known to-day to
bring large returns for a moderate
investment. More than one half the
oil companies listed on the Califor-
mia Oil Exchange are paying divi-
dends. some of them having paid
dividend within so days after their
first well was I'm.
Dave Buick said that he expected
to make ten times the money out of
oil that he ever made In the auto
mobile business, and he was right, as
this first well indicates. -
When the Buick Oil Company has
it's hundreds of wells producing on
it's 54O-acre tract it will undOubt-
edly be paying to the man who had
the foresight to buy Mt 75 cents a
share a dividend that he could
never have hoped to earn in any
other investment.

field. Preparations had been made
to bring this well In at $500 feet.
and accordingly, when il was found
necessary to go the additional depth
smaller casing was required than
had been originally intended for the
oil sands. II this well had been
reached with a fOur-inch casing, oil
experts say that IL would have been

regrets on this score, as our next
well will be sunk in close proximity
to Well No. /, and all preparations
made for bringing in the large body
OF oil which we now know is there.
If you could buy gold dollars for
fifty cents, you would probably shut
up shop and go out and mortgage
your home, and buy as long as your
money lasted. The reason you
would do this is because you know
what gold dollars are worth and
what you can get for them. II you
knew what Buick Oil shares are
really worth you would go to the
same extreme TO get them at IS
cents a share
Many well-informed investors in
this city and surroundings who un-
derstand the great value of oil lands
in the Midway field. have made the
greatest sacrifices to buy Buick Oil
shares. They realize that an op-
portunity to associate themselves in
a good property with men of estab-
lished reputation does not come
every day. and that when 1t comes
they must act quickly to get the full
advantage of il.

START OVERHAUL
HOUSE ON MARCH 6
Money Ready Then if Extra
Session Is Not Called.

The dismantling of the hall of the House
OF Representatives will commence about
March 6, providing there is no extra ses-
sion of Congress, and the passage of the
sundry civil bill with an item of $3.50.
900 for remodeling the meeting place of
the House members is left intact.
The House Committee on Appropriations
in making up the sundry civil bill fol-
lowed the recommendation of Elliott
Woods, superintendent of the Capitol,
and inserted the necessary appropriation
to enable him to commence the overhaul
ing of the House which has been planned.
The design of the new House, furnished
by Carrere & Hastings, of New York,
has been approved by the commission ap-
pointed to make the proposed changes.
The drawing was on exhibition lin the
House lobby yesterday, where it excited
much favorable comment The proposed
changes involve the opening of the hall
of the House to the windows on the south
wing of the Capitol and the contraction
of the auditorium space where the mem
bers are seated by the installation OF a
new system of desks and chairs.
A further appropriation calls for an air
cooling device for the chamber in warm
weather, and an electric car system to
carry members back and forth between
the Capitol and the Office buildings The
total appropriation for House improve
ments is $404, ,357.31

MOON BILL PASSED,
CODIFYING LAWS
Measure Has Taken More At
tention Than Any Other.

The Moon bill codifying the laws OF the
Federal judiciary was passed by the House
yesterday. This measure. which has
monopolized the time of all the calendar
Wednesdays this session, has received
more attention perhaps than any bill con-
sidered in the House this winter.
1t is an elaborate measure, representing
many years work by Congress commit
tees, and is far reaching in its effects, as
it revises and codifies all the laws gov
erning the Federal judiciary.
Among the interesting amendments in
corporated in the bill by the House was
one which erases from large part OF
the statutes all reference to the war OF
the rebellion" substituting the civil
war" for those words. 1t was on motion
of Southern members that this amend
ment was adopted.
The bill increases the salary Of the
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year, and those of as
sociate justices from $12,5OO to $14,500 a
year. A bill drafted along the lines of
the Moon bill has passed the Senate
Whether an agreement On this proposed
legislation will be reached in conference
is uncertain.
