fifth districts the present Democratic
incumbents will be renominated "with
out opposition.
The Democratic candidates for gov

Congressional Committee
Meets This Week to Take
Up Grore Charges.
Washington, D. C. Aug. 2. Sensa
tional davelopments are expected when
the house committee, appointed at the
close of the congressional session to
investigate the charges of "bribery
brought by senator Gore, of Oklahoma.
In connection with the attorney's fees
for the sale of indian lands in that
siate, begins its sessions. The members
of the committee are representatives
Burke, of South Dakota, chairman;
Campbell, of Kansas; Miler. of Minne
sota; Stevens, of Texas, and Saunders,
of Virginia.
According to present arrangements,
the investigation will open in Muskogee,
Okla., on Thursday of this week, when
the blind senator will be summoned be
fore the committee to repeat his charges.
Copies of contracts of J. P. McMurray,
the attorney whose agent is alleged to
have offered the bribes with the Choc
taw and Chiekaiaw Indians, have been
prepared by the interior department and
will, be in the hands- of the committee
when the session begins.
"The committee, however, will not con
fine itself to the mere investigation
of the bribery charges. The resolution
empowers it to "investigate all circum
stances connected with certain contracts
now said to exist between J. P. McMur
ray, an attorney, or any other person
or persons, and the Choctaw and Chick
asaw tribes of indians or any member
thereof, or any of the five civilized
tribes, ttris to include bribery, fraud
Dr any undue influence that may have
been 'x"erj:ed on behalf of the approval
or procuring of -the contracts."
For this reason all the rumors that
developed shortly after the charges
were made, to the effect that a senator
and mcanber of the house are interested
in the contracts, will be thoroughly
i s-ifted, and the report will be made at
the next session of congress.
The Gore investigation, as it Is gen
erally; known, had its inceptionIn the

FIRE COMMISSION
WILL COME LATER
Henry F. Reynaud is El Paso s new
fire marshal. This appointment has
been made by mayor Robinson, and
will be announced at ta meeting of
the city council t. be held Thursday
The announcement of the appointment
of Reynaud, is not in unexpected se
quel to the refusal of the -.ity council
to confirm the nomination of Dan Kelly
by -the lire commissioners, ana the
resignation of the commission follow
ing that refusal.
Mayor Robinson had alread stated
that at the regular meeting oft th2
council to be held next Thursday he
would announce the names of a new
fire commission to lie appointed by
him. But the news that he had already-
taken the appointment of a fire
marshal into his own hands, prior to
the appointment of new commission
ers came as a suVprise. It is generally
accepted as a fact that the appoint
ment of Reynaud by maynr Robinson
was with the full consent of the coun
cil. The incidents leading to the appoint
ment of Reynaud followed the crea
tion'""of the office of fire marsha. bv
the city council. The fire commission,
composed of judge P. F. Edwards, M.
C. Edwards,, YV. T. Hixson, C. C. Jvcifer
and Frank Powers, were asked to nom
inate a man for the place. Following
this suggestion thej' recommended the ;
appointment of Dan Kelly. This ap
pointment, the city council, without
comment, refused to confirm, and the
entire lire commission, with the ex-cp-
uon 01 juuge niciwaros, wno was out
of the city, tendered their resigna
tions. Reynaud for some time has b.en en
gaged In the fire insurance and real
estate business and is a young man.

Wild Stories.
Stories that the Texas- company has
been running pipe iines from wells, has
been pumping oil from them and all
that sort of talk are laughed at by all
who have been to the field. Everybody
has confidence that the company is go
ing to gel oil, but they believe that it
is going to mean deep drilling and that
it will be some time before anything is
done that will show just how muca oil
there is to be found.
The Texas company, it is argued by
those who know the officials of the
company, has no need to keep its work a
secret and when it strikes oil they be
lieve the fact will be made public. The
company has leases on enough oil land
to supply it with all the oil it can crill
for a decade if it finds good oil, and
