FOR OLD SOLDIERS HOME
A joint resolution by Ashby pro-
vides for establishing a home for old
soldiers at Fort Reno, which was re-
cently abandoned by the government,
a request to be made of congress to
donate the same to the state.
At the conclusion of the shower of
bills the speaker declared the house
adjourned until ten o'clock this morn-
In.
A tribute was- paid Speaker William
H. Murray In the lower house the
legislature yesterday morning In extem-
poraneous speeches made by many of1
the majority members following the In- I
traduction of the Ralney resolution pro- j
viding for a point memorial addressed to
congress asking that body to defray the
expenses of the constitutional convention
after the sixty day period, covered by
the appropriation in the enabling art.
hud expired.
The resolution was brought up yester-
day for the second time. Its introduction
Wednesday was followed by a withdrawal
by Ralney to permit Changes In the
wording. Imediately after It was offered
the rules were suspended and It was
adopted by a unanimous vote. Then came
the speeches commending the constitu-
tional convention, and particularly, Its
president, the house speaker.
The featui'A of the "love f^ast" was
the absence of partisan feelln«. Repub-
lican members vied with the major-
ity in praising the convention president
f« r his part in framing the basic law for
tlie new 3tate. The commendatory talks
jNnntlnur-d until Murray himself stopped
them Ht the noou hour, when adjourn-
ment until two o'clook was taken.
Perhaps the two most notable speeches
*'ere made by Arihby on the part of the
democrats and Jones for the minority.
Roth endorsed the work of Murray
"There may be many things In the ron
Stltutlon that the republicans do not ex
actly commend.'• declared the Oklahoma
county republican member, "but taken as
a whole, It Is n document that will go
down in history as one of the best ever
written. The preshleint of the constitu-
tional convention did his duty."
ASHBY'S POWDER STORY
Ashby convulsed the house by a char-
acteristic anecdote that lost none of
lt« native humor in the telling nja dec-
laration that "Murray could carry forty
tor of powder" was met by a roar of ap-
probation.
No man who ever did anything recelv-
*d the praise of ev«y one." 1,, M|d. And
the house backed him up noisily
Many of the other remarks were Ora-
torical «-(Torts. Ashby spread a damper
over an attempt to move the previous
question in the midst of the flowery con-
tributions and the tributes went on even
after the vote was taken. No little mer
ti men t Wps caused by one of the "expla
nations especially by republican mem
ners who voted "aye" on the resolution
DEMOCRATS ELECTED IffM
Sands of Heaver county explained that
re favored the resolution because al-
though a member of the minority, he was
elected by democratic votes.

BY MATT DUHR
&
Prof. McManuB, one of the foremost
Hlroh swlngert and ladies men of the de
funct Indian Territory, haa been exalted
to the jHisltion of private secretary of
Bosh Murray. Russell, the always belli*,
crent Ardmore editor, filled that dizzy
l-lac«' last winter, but was abruptly ex-
pelled from the con -con. by the bellicose
Alfalfa Bill.
It Is ardently expected that the leKi8-
lntlve paymaster will not delay his first
official visit to the members and army
of attendants much longer. The members
who bad most of their coin locked up in
hanks are In need of expense money.
T. N. Terrlll, wild co.it T.offan counit^
about $12,000 In court expenses. Is hers
for (lie purpose of asking; the legislature
to work the penitentiary convicts on th#
roads of thin state. Terrlll. however. Is
n^alnst tatting the utterly depraved pris
oners breathe the fresh air of heaven.
Peanut King Durst, the Rental Buffalo
repreaentative. will bo expected to treat
his colleagues to a carload of his mam-
moth peanuts, tuber* that are juicy and
each make# a small legislative mouthful.
Tlie average member thinks that the
strict enforcing of the model constitution
and the scMslon laws of the first Okla-
homa legislature will be the beginning Of
the Ion* expected millennium, and that
the passage of the Jim Crow law will
uaher In the year of Jubilee.
It Is claimed that venerable Stump Ash-
It- v passed a whole weok In a Wood's
county bat cave, preparing his forthcom-
ing oration against the Irrepressible gen-
tleman of color. It is predicted that his
Jim Crow speeult will be equal to Demos-
thenes' oration of the crown.
Lieut. Governor Bellamy presides with
praiseworthy ability over the senate. Til*

the noise of his gavel doesn't reverberate
Ifrke the nerve-shocking reports Qf a pile
driver.
TK)n. C. C. Jones, the republican mem-
ber from Oklahoma City, is fast becoming
one of the most Influential members of
the horse of commons. Mr. Jones Is an
expert parliamentarian, a thoroughbred
American, and a. first cla*s Oklahoman.
Beadln^ Clerk Cordon, of the house, has
a premium s entorlnn voice that can be
heard by a rraven Imago. He is a pretty
good eloqurtfontst and would, for the good
of the democratic party, be one of ths
most successful rounder-up of straggling
oters In the brush
of you with cigarettes." And th«y list-
ened carefully those legislative Mercuries.
The constitutional convention stunt of
tlie speaker was reproduced yesterday
when he directed a nattack against tho
Jim Crow portion of the spectators'
gallery. A darkey who was assisting tlie
negro janitor was summarily removed
from the floor and put In the "separate
section."
"From the grand Jury to the petit Jury
Is the caption In favor with the minori-
ty members.
The speaker mity put all hi? squelching
powers In operation but It Is seriously
doubtful that they will have anv lasting
"ffect on the Hon. C. O. Jones ftxim Ok-
lahoma county. Jones was "called down"
for his "levity' bj the chair yesterday
but he bobbed up serenely to answer
That Is more than most of 'em do.
It will take a few days for t/e new
fledged members to get used to the brus-
que way of the speaker. More than one
wildly beating heart has resulted from
the "shoulder" statements from the ros-
trum.
MISSING BANKER LOCATED.

Stanley of the Savings Bank of New Brit-
ain, today corifirmed the report that Wil-
liam P. Walker, the absconding treasurer
of that Institution, had been located near
Knsenada, Mexico. A posse has been
sent out from that town for him through
request or the state department.
