BIG GAME FISH

and his brother, William, last Sunday
went out trolling for big fish with light
tackle on the lee side of this island,
off Waikiki beach.
About p. m. Nicely hooked a, large
ono or king fish," and after a long
1ght during which time the fish leap
ed clear Of the water on three differ
ent occasions, he succeeded in bring
! ing 1t to gaff and landed it on deck.
The fish measured "a inches in length
and weighed 33h pounds. Within ten
minutes after having killed this beau
.ty, Peter Mclean hooked another ono,
and It being his first experience with
game fish, he had much longer and
more spectacular fight for his prize
than did Nicely, but finally brought it
10 gaff in good shape, much to his
Satisfaction and the pleasure of his
friends. McLean's fish measured 501h
inches in length and weighed 30A
pounds. s
Trolling for big fish requires much
patience, but the fish are plentiful
and an occasional kill such as those
of last Sunday amply l spays one for
the effort. -4

other prominent American residents,

is delivered as a rule, the Stars and

in gala mood. A program OF sports
and a dress parade by the Shanghai
volunteer corps, composed of British,
Germans. Americans, etc. help to
make the day lively and the good old
fireworks are not omitted.
For several years it has been the
custom in some treaty ports of China
for the British and Americans jointly
to celebrate the Fourth OF July This
may sound strange to ears that are
not cosmopolitan. And in CONNER
cial sense it really is unusual, for If
there is any nation upon whose adj

trenched Briton looks with misgivings
1t is the American. Nevertheless,
there always are enough liberal minds
on both sides to bring about mutual
rejoicing. In these celebrations the
Americans acknowledge England as
their mother and the British express
their unbounded pleasure over the
wonderful progress and mighty growth
Of Britannias lusty offspring.
Since China became a republic the
Chinese people themselves have de-
veloped a keen curiosity over Nell
can mans merrymaking. They know
that their government came to them
from this country, through students
who were educated in our colleges and
taught the true spirit of democracy.
An exceedingly graceful compliment
was paid to America and Americans
last Fourth of July in Picking. by Presi-
dent Yuan Shin Kai, who drove per-
sonally to the American legation to
congratulate the American representa-
tive, E. T. Williams, on the birth of
the nation and to lay stress upon the
debt China owes the United States for
her fast friendship and good example
in the past. In several cities leading
Chinese requested the privilege of par
ticipating in the American fete.

Wherever Americans go they take

the day with great deal more inter-

American Fourth OF July. They all
seem to have for our great event OF
the year a feeling that varies from
kindly tolerance to spontaneous enthu-
Siasm.
This is interesting in the light of
the fact that SO many other lands

With the possible exception Of
Frances, however. they attract no
attention outside Of their own coun-

MUNICIPAL LEAGUE
WANTS FOUR LAWS
Tulsa City Attorney Talks on Bills
Now Before the LcSis-
lature.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. S0.-"The
Oklahoma Municipal league seeks to
have four laws enacted by this lesis-
lature," said City Attorney John r.
Ramsey OF Tulsa, who was here the
past week attending a meeting of the
legislative committee of the league.
There is an imperative need FOR
some of these measures" said Mr..
Ramsey, "and the members of the
house and senate have treated us very
courteously i'm consenting to intro
duce and champion the measures that
we most desire"
The four bills that have been intro
duced at the request of the committee
of which Mr.. Ramsey Is member,
in brief, as follows:
l. Revising the sidewalk law
2. Raising the maximum levy for
cities Of the first class.
3. Preventing the county excise
board from reducing the city tax levy
IL it Is within the maximum as pre-
scribed by law.
4. Giving cities the right to invest
in their own warrants.
"These four measures" continued
the Tulsa city attorney, ARE ones that
are urgently needed by every city In
the state. The Oklahoma Municipal
league has only recently been organ
lied and we cannot hope TO accom-
plish very much this year, but II the
legislature now I'm session will give
US these four laws we will feel that
we have made mighty good start" 4"

Here's your chance to do some eff
fectiVe lobbying,
Senator Clarence Davis of Sapulpa,
has introduced in the senate joint
resolution, proposing an amendment
to the constitution, giving the right Of
suffrage to women.
There are strong rumors that the
resolution will be adopted by both
houses and at the next general cleo
ton In this state the voters will be
given the opportunity Of saying
whether or not they want oklahoma
to get into the list of wOmen's suffrage
states
Some members OF the legislature
favor letting the women themselves
decide the issue, but the suffragets
don't want anything of the kind,
therefore they are working for Sen
ator Davis resolution.
The resolution merely submits to
the voters the proposition to amend
section 1, article 3 OF the constitu-
tlon, by adding this sentence:
"Female persons shall have the
right to vote and hold office under the
same conditions, limitations and re-
strictiOns as male persons"

A TWINE FACTORY
IN PENITENTIARY
Testerman's Bill Gives En-
ployment to Con
victs.

OKLAHOMA CITY. san. 3O.-The
widely discussed question of whether
or not the convicts in the state peni-
tenuary at McAlester should be given
employment is answered in a bill in
troduced In the house by Representa-
tive Tom FISHERMAN of Noble county,
the minority floor leader
Testerman's bill authorizes the state
board of affairs to establish binder
twine factory at the state prison and
appropriates 100000 for that pur-
pose.
The bill sets forth that the neces-
sary number of COnViCtS TO operate
the factory shall be employed and the
product of the factory shall not be
in excess of a reasonable estimate by
the state board of agriculture of the
demand for that season.
Each convict who works I'm this
factory will be allowed 81 per day. II
convict has a wife. minor children
or mother dependent upon him. this
earning shall be paid over to them
quarterly, upon proper showing that
they are entitled to same. If con-
vict has no one dependent upon him
he shall at the expiration of his term
be allowed so per cent of such amount
earned by him and the other 80 per
cent shall revert to the state.
The bill provides that the product
of the factory shall be sold at ten per
cent profit over and above all Operat-
ing expenses, and such profit shall be
reinvested in the factory and ma
terials.
This is the only bill thus far intro
duced in either house chat provides
specific plan for the employment
Of state convicts and If the measure
receives a favorable committee report
there is a strong likelihood that 1t VIII
be enacted into law, I'm spite Of the
fact that the author is a Republican.
Testerman was also co-author Of
the bill making it a felony to place
irons, bolts or other hard articles In
unuhreshed grain. This bill has been
passed by both the house and the sem
ate and will become law as soon as
1t is signed by the governor.
