Will Force (be City Council to
Down
MUST STAND WITH I'COPLE
Or the Contractors No Excuses Will (Jo With
the Taxpayers This Time as Every
Member Will be Forced to Show
His Hand.
Last evening a large number of peo-
ple fisaembled at the Probate Court
room at the call of the Executive com-
mittee of the tax-payers' league to dis-
cuss the lateral sewer question and to
ueclde upon a future course in regard
to the second effort to levy an assess-
ment against lots abutting on the later-
als.
Dr. C. P. Bradford wns chosen chair-
man of the meeting and W. F. Hum
secretary. Judge Keaton was called
upon for the legal status of the sewer
matter and made a lengthy explanation
of the legal aspect of the case. The
substance of the Supreme Court decis-
ion In the case taken there by the
league, or rather by the contractors
against ihe league, was that the tax-
payers were given the remedy they
prayed for and the Injunction was
made perpetual, wnlch prevents the
city clerk from having the assessments,
as heretofore made, placed on the tax
duplicate. The contention of attor-
neys on both sides of the case was
that the law under which the assess-
ment was sought to be mado was uncon
stitutlonal, the attorneys for the con-
tractors taking that position for the
purpose of showing why the method of
making the assessment as adopted by
the council was correct, and the at-
torneys for the citizens holding that
the act being unconstitutional, no as-
sessment whatever could be legally
made. The Supreme Court left the
question of the constitutionality of the
net undetermined, because, ob the
judge who wrote the opinion after-
wards said in regard to the matter,
they expected that question to be raised
later on in another suit.
Judge Keaton gave it bs his profes-
sional opinion that the act under which
the assessment is sought to be made
Is clearly unconstitutional and there- I
fore void, as contended by both sides
In the former action.
After some discussion of the matter
by the citizens, the mnsn-meeting by a
unanimous vote declared it the sense
of the meeting that another Injunc-
tion suit he commenced Immediately
W. P. Harn, chairman of the former
committee, Dr. C. B. Bradford, chair-
man of the mass meeting, and Will H
Clark, former sewer Inspector, were ap-
pointed an executive committee with
power to appoint another member
whose Interests lie In South Oklahoma,
which committee Is orderi d to employ
counsel and commence suit without de-
lay.
The following resolution was offered
by W. P. Harn and was unanimously
adopted:
"Resolved by the taxpayers of Okla-
homa City In mass—convention aaaein-
bled thac it is tho sense of the tax-
payers of this city affected by the con-
struction of the latera sewers that city
council order the city clerk to cease
Issuing notices levying assessments
againBt property abutting on said lat-
eral sewers and to recall all notices
heretofore Issued and served.
"Besolved further that It la the sense
of this meeting that all further con-
struction of lateral sewers In the city
under the present contract be stopped
The Executive Committee held
meeting at the office of Dr. C. B. Brad-
ford to-day and completed arrange-
ments for Immediate action. Counsel
have been retained and another peti-
tion will be filed In a few days.
Sub-committees were appointed in
each block In the city to canvass the
property owners to enable each one to
become a party to the suit, if he choos-
es. Those who do not become parties
to such an action will not derive any
benefits from the litigation In the event
the law la declared unconatitutlonnl.
while the parties to the suit will avoid
the payment of the assessment alto-
gether. The only remedy then for the
contractora wpuld be for them to take
up the Bewers. but this they could not
do because some rights have accrued to
those property owners who have paid
their assessments without contest and
a removal of the sewer would be cause
for actions for damages by such prop-
erty owners as ha'*e paid.
The resolution quoted above was
passed by the tax-payers for the pur-
pose of putting the matter squarely be-
fore the city council. The present
aewer assessment Is being made on the
order of the old city council Just as
that body was about to expire, when
the usual rules of order were not ob-
served, thus Invalidating the matter
anyhow. The cltlaena, however, hav-
ing renovated the council as best
could at. the last election, desire to
place the present members on record
;o that they can mak • a new renova-
tion when the opportunity affords.
The following citizens took an active
part in the mass-meeting: Mr. Street
*?r, Judne .Stone, Dr. Bradford, Will H.;
i Mark, L. F. Lee, Dr. Satterfleld, John
Holzapfel, Mr. Blackwelder, \V
Harn and many others.
Graham Burnham, director of the Ok
lahoma Industrial Bureau, returned
Saturday from aten-days trip through
the Wlehita Mountains and the West-
ern part of Oklahoma. He reports par
tlcular activity in the mining interests
of the Wichita mountains and particu-
larly in the location or Wlldinan.
an Interview with the Times-Journal
Reporter he Bald: "It is gradually com-
ing to pass that the most conservative
apital Is becoming interested in the
mining sections of the Wichita Moun
tuiiiB. The old story told In regard to
fabulous finds are Kettlnir down
truthful facts of actual ore discoveries,
and the more that Is known of the
true prospects of mines the more active
become the developments. At Wild-
man over 1,000 assays have been made
from different shafts showing valuation
reaching from a trn< as high as high
as $800 in gold, $175 In silver and 5 to
per cent In copper. For the past six
months (Mr. I'. Waldron aasayer
Wlidman has been carefully examining
the ore from all parts of the mountains
and In response to an Inquiry stated
that every fact Is established beyond
question that ore exists in abundance.
Said he, "of course there Is no gold
and silver in the Wichita Mountains
In chunks as big as a house, hut the
fact is established beyond all question
that gold, silver, copper, platinum,
luminum and other minerals exist and
the greater the depth the better the
showing.
Up to the present time there has not
been a hole over 50 feet deep In the
mineral belt of the Wichita Mountal
and anyone with experience knows
that It is necessary to get down in the
ground to get minerals. Heretofore
mining in the WichltaMountalna has
been conducted on the plan of squint-
itfg around at rocks and telling taleB
f phenomlnal assays and haw the
Spaniards carried out gold in the year
one by the bag full.
different class of people is begin
ning to take hold of the mining situa-
tion said Mr. Burnham. In visiting
over 100 mining camps he noticed that
the work is being pushed actively by
the miners as they are able to push It.
Organized companies are putting
nachlnery and going at It in a business
like way. The Lone Jack Mining Com
I pany at Wlidman, Is now down about
of phenomlnal assays and how the
at Joplln buying machinery to push
work rapidly.
Over on Tepee creek, West Otter. Dry
Otter and other canon streami
shafts are already sunk from 40 to 80
feet, with good copper prospects.
Miners are having quite a scrap with
the homesteaders and on the 5th of
May they hold a special meeting at
Wlidman for the purpose of uniting in
the common mining Interest.
With the work now going on In the
Wichita Mountains, 1 would not be sur-
prised any day to see a strike made and
the first strike means a rush of men
and money that will make things lively
sure enough.
PINE STOCK OP VEHICLES
The building now occupied by J. W
H.py Si Son, Implement denlers, Is in
adequate to hold the vaBt stock of ve-
hicles that this Arm has ordered. The
stock ordered amounts to about $60,000
and the present quarters will hold only
about hulf of the stock. It is under-
stood that the company will enlarge its
luarters within the near future,
representative of this paper yesterday
visited the company's building
Broadway and found the men at work
unpacking a shipment of Ave car loads
of buggies. The firm has the use of
three stories. on the first floor at
present is the office, harness depart-
ment, and display room for fine ve-
hicles. On the second floor men are
now at work making a display room.
On the third floor is the rubber tiring
and storage department. The firm has
been In business here for one month
and has now built up a fine wholesale
trade all over this section. The com-
pany makes a specialty of the Morris
Woodhall Seventeen coat work of Day-
ton, Ohio. Among the fine vehicles on
display Is a cut-under, rubber tired
stanhope and also a combination trap
and stanhope with footspace between.
"We have sold enough goods already
this week," said Mr. Rlpy "that we
would be satisfied If not another deal
was made this week."
Including the vehicles sold yesterday
were two handsome buggies, one to Dr.
'helan and one to Dr. Young. Mr.
Rlpy stnted that only about half of the
stock had been received. The stock
now on display Is one of the finest ever
seen In this part of the country. |
COMPLEXION
SECRET.
Good complexions are made
from the inside. Those who
want a fresh, healthy complex-
ien must get it where the child
gets it—through sound digestion
and pure blood.
Those who have no care for
the beauty of a healthy skin
should care for it as an evidence
of health. People are never
really well if the skin is sallow
or blemished by eruptions.
Universal Sarsaparilfa
makes clear complexions. It
purifies the blood, aids digestion
and overcomes "that tired feel-
ing." Price $ i .00.

Cimarron, and often came
umunltlon and whiskey to Cushing.
n same bold, bad men from
creek sometimes showed their
by riding through this then
village, shooting in the air with their
Winchesters, not to scare the women
and children so much, but simply to
show that they didn't care for God or
man, and were prepared for any emer-
gency.
Miss Captain, whose parents lived In
eastern Oklahoma, took up with the
out-laws for more adventurous occur
rences, and she prevented them repeat-
edly from committing more crimes than
they did. She, when officiating as
Miss Captain, was chief commander of
the gang. Her word was law, and
that law had to be obeyed. She dress
ed In regular cowboy uniform, and car-
ried an enormous six-shooter, which,
however, she never fired excepting at a
tree, bird, snake, or even the head of
some misbehaving outlaw. It goes
without saying that a large majority of
the law breakers were deeply In love
with their female dictator, and she
highly flattered with their abject ad
oration.
Miss Captain never got dead drunk,
and she repeatedly prevented her
slaves from getting that way by break-
ing the filled whiskey bottles.
Miss Captain would often disappear
on her fleet pony during the night, but
always was in the guarded camp at
early dawn. The out-laws surmised
but never knew exactly where she went
to In the night.
They always called her Miss Captain,
und she always addressed them by
their respective numbers, never by
their real names.
The female of the out-laws occasion-
ally made them pray Sunday mornings,
while she regaled them with suitable
fragments from the scriptures.
The bloody battle at Ingalls broke up
that particular gang of law-defyers,
and xulsa Captain again dressed like a
stylish young lady. She didn't get
married to any of the bold, bad gang,
and In fact she Is still a single buxom
old maid, teaching a large class In the
Sunday School how they should behave
during their youth.
Rumor sayB that the out-law she re
ally did love was sent to the penitenti-
ary for life, nnd Miss Captain's heart
went along with him and is Imprisoned
for life also. Ex-Mlas Captain seml-
aslonally mounts her steed and rides
all night, simply, perhaps, for the sole
reason that she wants to act wild, ad-
venturous, and as though she was
again the dictator of an outlaw crew.
HIS SISTER AMONG DEAD.
B. Lewis, of the Oklahoma Sport-
ing Goods Company, today received a
message which was sent yesterday. The
message contained sad Intelligence be-
Information to the effect that

lenrose, Texas. The message did not
give the details of the death. To a re-
presentative of this paper today Mr.
^ewis stated that he had received news
f the killing of another relative In the
same cyclone.

murder took place at Wogan's railroad
grading camp, nine miles south of this
ity on the Rock Island last evening.
Roy Turner stabbing Sam Barnett In
the heart, producing instant death.
Both men are negroes employed on the
railroad grade. The trouble began over
a Joke which greatly offended Turner.
He swore he would kill somebody for It.
A few minutes later he and Barnett
began to scuffle, but the bystanders did
not consider that they were even mad,
when without warning Turner pulled a
long bladed knife and struck Barnett
twice In the back of the neck. As Bar-
nett whirled around he was stabbed
in the breast, and another thrust with
the knife reached Barnett's heart, pro-
ducing Instant death.

ONCE A SCOUT.
C. T. Raymond, who committed sul
clde Sunday, had an eventful ea.eer.
as once a government scout
trailed Indians nnd outlaws In Arizona
and New Mexico. On one occasion he
saw three robbers following a stage
coach and shadowed them, riding his
pony at a distance on the flanks. From
an endnence he saw the robbers stop
the stage and hold up the driver and
ssengers at the muzzle of revolvers.
Raymond cut loose with his globe-sight
Sharp's rifle nnd two of the robbers fell
their tracks, the third one fled to
the sage brush and escaped. The pas-
sengers In the coach did not know the
cause of their deliverance until they
stopped at a relay station and Raymond
rode In and told them about It. Ray-
mond, like BUI Drannon, gained fame
ns an Indian scout In the wild west
when the red skins were conspicuously
"pesky."
