What might have proved a very Sc

the flames burst out and got beyond

fire, the flames running up between
the studding from one floor to the
other until it looked very serious for
time. However, John Rittmayer and

HARDY BLACKSMITH, WHO WAS

BURY GAME, WENT THE ROUTE
IN BYGONE DAYS.

About thirty years ago, there was
a husky specimen of young manhood
work at his trade,-as blacksmith
in the little town of Beebee. Ark,
a snort distance from Little Rock.
This young man, like all workers in
iron, was a devotee of athletics of
every form, but he was especially
delighted in the manly art of self
defense, and was reputed among his
acquaintances to be rather handy
with the gloves, although about this
time the gloves were disdained by
many of the followers of the London
prize ring rules, and the bare kucck-
les were considered good enough by
most of the professional boxers OF
the time
John L. Sullivan had risen to fame
as the boss bruiser of the period and
with his manager, was making tour
of the country, offering a big forfeit
to any man who would stay four
rounds with him in the ring At this
time, and during the course of the
tour, was advertised to show at Hot

THE SALARIES
Of EMPLOYEES
CUT BY SENATE
BILL INTRODUCED BY Mem ECHAN
PROPOSES ONLY EIGHT CON-
MITTEE CLERKS, WHEN FOR
NELLY THERE WE'RE FORTY.

Oklahoma City, March eff the
plans now outlined by the senate
committee on senate and legislative
affairs are carried out as outlined in
a bill introduced by Senator Thomas
f. McMechan the possible daily eX-
penditure for senate employees will
be reduced from 1929 to $91. 80. The
proposed measure is a radical stride
along the highway of practical econ
omy
Under the law as it now exists,
the senate is empowered to employ
one committee clerk for each of the
forty eight standing committees and
their salary is fixed at S. per day.
BY the provisions of this bill forty
of these committee clerks are abol-
ished and the salary of the remain
ing eight is reduced to 81 per day.
The present law also provides
for one assistant enrolling and en-
crossing clerk at So per day, and
eight assistants at s. per day. The
bib now under consideration reduces
this number to three and fixes the
pay of one of them at s. per day
and the other two are to be paid
81 a day each.
The same line of economy is fol-
lowed throughout the bill and the
reduction rs continued both as to
number and as to the pay they are
to receive until the utmost expense
for employees that the next senate
will be allowed cannot exceed the
total sum of $3.50 per day.

Watson Issues Statement.

Commissioner A. P. Watson, when
asked for statement, said:
Il have been a member of the
corporation commission since state
hood, and have at all times done my
duty fearlessly and without favor.
Upon all matters that have come be-
fore the commission | have acted
conscientiously, and have striven to
be fair and just to all concerned.
In rendering a decision, or making
an order, | have never in any way
been influenced by personal friend
ship or financial obligation. No man
can point to a single official act of
mine where / have ever given any
corporation any right or privilege
that was not justified by the law and
the evidence.
Il have always been in favor Of
and have always consistently voted
for the requirement that every cor
poration under the supervision of
the corporation commission shall bow
to and obey the law. The inyestiga-
ton that has been made by the legis-
lative committee has been ex parte
and testimony going to show that
my private transactions, inquired
into by the committee, have been
free from any improper or ulterior
motives on the part of both me and
those with whom said transactions
were had. was not heard or consid
cred by the committee.
Nearly all of the charges prefer
red against me were aired in the
campaign of 1914, and the people
gave their opinion of such charges
by the decided plurality received by
me in the general election. l have
done no wrong; but on the contrary,
have kept faith with the people in
my every official act and utterance.
at has been reported that | intend
to resign. Such report is without
foundation. | ask the people of the
state to withhold their judgment un-
til after all the evidence has been
heard by the senate, whose judgment
| await with confidence"
