This branch was built jointly by

railroads, to form connecting link
between the two systems and facll-
itate passenger trafiic Over the
two lines. Last fail the San:a Fe
built the line from Psuls Valley
to Lindsay, completing 1t BY the
latter part of September. The
Rock Island also built the embank-
ment from Chickasha to Lindsay,

lay the steel until this spring.
Everything was in readiness to
open the road for traffic ol June

came and practically washed out

Lindsay. Thousands Of dollars OF
damage we're piled up against the
Rock Island company. Nothing
daunted, they went TO work imme-
diately to rebuild the line, and
now have 1t IN such shape that
they will be able to put on
q thorough train service soon.
The line runs thorough the
very heart Of the richest country
in the Chlckasaw Nation. The
entire distance from Chickasha 10
Pauls Valley is sixty-hve miles,
but the Rock .Island will operate
its trains only to Lindsay, where
the Santa Fe will take up the

owing to the condition of the
roadbed since the washouts we're

will be remedied as soon as the

Majority of Council Said to Favor Franchise
for Toll Line.
TEST VOTE SAID TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN
Only Two Members of Council Express
a Preference for "a Franchise
Providing for a Local
Exchange.
TEST VOTE SAID TO HAv: BEEN TAKEl

The special committee, consisting OF Al
dermen Lovett, FINLEY and Casper, Mayor
Morgan and City Solicitor Snyder, to which
was assigned the task Of drafting an ordi-
nance for an Independent telephone fraL-
chise, will meet Saturday afternoon. Moth
ing was effected at the meeting Monday
night.
Alderman Lovett is opposed to any ordl-
nance which will allow the. establishment
Of another exchange in the city, but is in
favor OF granting a franchise for q toll
system to afford connection with independ-
ent companies throughout this section OF
the state. On the other hand, Aldermen
Casper and FINLEY both favor giving a fran
chise to an Independent local company
which will put In a city system OF phones
and at the same time furnish connection
with out-of-town Independent companies.
II is said that at the session Of the COM
mittee Of the whole behind closed doors
Monday night that a vote was taken on the
question OF another telephone exchange in
the city and that all the aldermen with
the exception Of Casper and FINLEY voted
against the proposition. The general opin-
ion is that in the long run the council will
offer to pass an ordinance granting a fran
