We hope our readers will forgive the

have no fear that the result will prove

The change Of front on the part Of

admission of the uncertainty of their

Where then is their hope Of success2
While they are changing front, or

1t is hardly worth while trying to

Conservative railroad men in this city
predict that within the next two years
the Santa Fe and Rock Island roads
will have several hundred miles of ex-
tensions in Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory.
Within the past year two small ex-
tensions have been built by the Rock
Island, and before the close of the pres
ent year the Santa Fee will have a line
south from Caney, Kan, into the In
dian Territory and a line from Braman
to Blackwell o. T. The Rock Island
has already surveyed much territory
adjacent to its line through Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory, and the Santa
Fe has now several surveying parties
in that territory.
There is much rich land both in Okla
homa and the Territory that is yet I'M
developed because of the lack of rail-
road connections. This includes coal
lands as well as agricultural territory.
Both roads realize what may be hoped
from a settled country, and further eX-
tensions may be confidently looked for
next year.
While the two territories will prob
ably never be so thoroughly traced with
railroad lines as is the state of K nsaS
it is only reasonable to presume that
within the next few years they will be

farther south. Last year before the
Santa Fe took charge of the road the
grading was done from Caney to Bar
tIesville, but this year it had to be done
over again, as they. ordered the grade
cut down considerably.
The grading has been completed to
Bartlesville now and six miles of track
eral hundred men are at work at the
other two places and are rapidly finish
ing the grading to the end of the line
that it is proposed to build this sum-
mer, and by the time the rails are put
down as far as Bartlesville the other
gangs of worl1men will have the grad
ing completed so the road can be push
ed on through. Collinsville is about so
miles southeast of Caney in the center
of a great agricultural and stock rails
ing section.
At first it was proposed to run the
road farther west, passing through Paw
huska and the Usage country, but 1T
was decided that it would be better to
keep farther away from the present line
of the Santa F'e and open up an entire
and the Missouri Pacific. BY the end
of summer trains will be running from
here as far as COllinsville on the new
road, and next year, when it is extended
into Texas, as the Santa F'e officials in
tend to do it will be the shortest line
from the east to Texas and the south
west.
