A Very Entertaining Letter
About What He Sees
in Oklahoma.
Guthrie, Okla, Aug. "a.

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. "a.
Editor, Pensacola Journal:
We came to Guthrie Thursday, the
22nd inst When We went over the
road four weeks ago the harvesters
were threshing and blowing corn.
Now they are blowing for fall seed
ing. AS far as we could see on either
side of the road men were blowing,
generally with three horses and rid
ing plows. We passed thousands OF
acres already turned and ready for
the seeder.
After we left Newton, Kans., we
came into the region where the
drOuth and hot winds had done their
work. The drouth had not hurt so
much, but the hot wind had cooked
about it is that the wind o7emed to
have gone in waves. Strips of, say,
twenty rows of corn were turned
brown, and then strips as wide looked
green, growing finely. Some of the
brown strips were already in shock,
just strips through the field.
We drove over the country some
yesterday, and saw a good many
fields in shock. The corn is earlier
here, and some of it was ripe, the
driver told us, but good deal Of it,
feel sure, will be very poor feed.
The cotton is small, but looking
well, and with sufficient rain will
make good crop. This is a beautiful
country to look at, and is a good coun-
try. August has been extremely hot,
but the nights are cool.
Guthrie is a beautiful city set on
two hills, with the valley of the Cim-
eron lying between. There are some
hr,sI
very high The Masons are just fin
ishing Masonic temple, said to be
one of the very finest in the world
1t is beautiful. =
Men are putting the finishing
touches on the courthouse. That also
is fine building. Building is being
rushed all over the city after the west
ern fashion. H.
Politics has the right of way at pres
ent. Yesterday the Democrats held
their primary, and today the Republi-
| cans are holding theirs. Both parties
are claiming that they VIII win in
the election on Sept. II.
Secretary Taft is in Oklahoma City
| today, and they are having the big
day of the campaign. 1 was told that
there would be fifty bands there and
an immense crowd. Colored men vote
in this state and hold office. At one
| time. Guthrie was nearly half negro,
| but now about 20 per cent. Large
numbers of the colored people have
| gone to Oklahoma City and Ocmul-
gee. Before they left the town was
/ Republican. The Republicans still
claim a majority, but the Democrats
say the election will show that the
Republicans are mistaken.

days, and then will hurry back to

Mrs. Armour Will Close Her
Campaign in Escarnbia
in This City.
WILL ADDRESS A MASS MEETING
IN SEVILLE SQUARE TONIGHT,
AND GO HOME TOMORROW
SPOKE THREE TIMES IN TOWN
AND COUNTRY.

With a meeting for the ladies of the
city at the armory at o'clock this af-
ternOOn and a grand mass meeting in
Seville square at o'clock tonight,
Mrs. Mary Harris Armour, the Georgia
prohibition worker, who has been hold
ing a remarkable series of meetings
throughout the county, will conclude
her work and tomorrow morning will
return to her home in Georgia.
The meeting this afternoon will be
held by the Ladies' Prohibition League
and Mrs. Armour will give some part
ing instructions and suggestions for
the carrying on of the campaign by
the women of the county. At night
she will speak on general prohibition
lines, and her well-known magnetic
power and the personal enthusiasm
which she puts into her speeches will
doubtless bring a large crowd to her
farewell meeting.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Armour and
several members of the local league
went in a small launch to Ferry Pass,
where they conducted a very success
full meeting. The mills shut down for
two hours in order that the men
might have an opportunity to hear the
speaking, and much enthusiasm was
developed. The party returned in the
afternoon, and last night Mrs. Armour
spoke to the colored people at one of
their churches.
This morning the ladies of the local
league are to take Mrs. Armour on a
cruise around the bay in order that
she may be given an opportunity of
securing a little recreation from the
arduOus work which she has done the
past week.

The United States geological sur
vev. through E. w. Parker, reports
that the total production of coal in
Washington in 1906 was 3,276,1S4 short
tons, having a spot. value Of S5.90S ,434.
AS in 1905 the production. of coal in
| Washington fell below that of 1904
because of the largely increased use
of petroleum as fuel in California. so
in 1906 the production of coal in Wash
! ington was stimulated by the falling
| off in the output of California oil. The
| statistics of petroleum. production in
1906 in California showed a decrease
of about 100000 barrels, due largely,
it is claimed, to the inability of the
railroads to supply the necessary
| transporta ton facilities, and the pro-
duction of coal in Washington was
| benefited according, with an increase
! of 411.25S short tons, or 14.4 per cent.
in quantity, and of $767,176, or 14.9 per
cent, in value.
Notwithstanding the increased pro-
duction in 1906, the average number
Soci ~
the state decreased from 4765 to 1929
but this was in part compensated for
by an Increase of from 227 to 266 in
the average number of working days.
The decrease in the number of men
employed is explained by the falling
off in demand for coal in 1905 and a
corresponding decrease in the demand
for labor, which caused the miner to
seek other fields of employment. III
1904 there were 52S7 men employed in
of 243 days. The increased demand in
1906 gave to the fewer number, of
men employed a greater amount of
work. The average production per man
in 1906, was 1884 tons, against 601.2
tons III 1905. The average daily pro-
luction per man increased from 2.65
tons in 1905, to 2.72 tons in 1906.
The majority of the mines operated
8 hours a day, % operations employ
ing 1882 men, reporting hours in
1906. Four mines, employing LOG men,
reported nire hours to the day, and
SIX mines employing l4I men, re-
ported eight hours for the miners and
10 hours for the day men. One mine,
with 231 men. reported nine hours
for the two different classes of en-
ployees, and two mines mines, en-
ploying 10 men, worked 10 hours.
The coal fields of Washington are
confined to the western and central
portions of the state. Four principal
fields may be mentioned-the North
Puget sound field, including the coal
mines of Skagit and Whatcom coun-
ties; the South Puget sound field
containing the operations in King and
Prince counties; the Puget sound
basin, just east of Seattle; the Ros-
lyn field, in Kittitas county, on the
eastern slope of the Cascade noun
tains and the southwestern field en-
bracing the counties of Lewis and

Il and some natural coke and anthra-
cite have been observed. The btu
minous coking Goals of Washington
| are the only coking Goals on the Pa
cific slope of the United States. The
| coking Goals are found in the Wilke-
son Carbonate district, in the South
| Puget Sound field, in the Roslyn field
J and in the North Puget Sound field
| but at present, coke is made only in
! the first named district The Wilkeson
| Carbonate coal runs high ir. ash, and
| is usually washed before cooking. The
| Ignite or subbituminous Goals of New
castle and Renton, in the South Pu-
get Sound field, are generally of high
| grade and well suited for domestic
| use. The steamship consumption in
trade with Alaska and the Orient is
| now the most important market for
| the high grade bituminous Goals of
Washington.
Coal was first discovered in Wash
lington in 1S4S, when a Ignite of rather
| low grade was found in the Cowlitz
valley. Four years later bituminous
coal was discovered on Bellingham
bay, Whatcom county, and the first
mine III the state was opened on this
bed. Shipments did not begin, how
ever, until 1850 This mine was oper-
ated continuously. from 1860 until
1873, when, on account of a fire caused
by spontaneous combustion, the work.
ings We're abandoned ard have not
since been reopened. Shipments were
in the northern district until thirteen
years later-1S91. Coal was discovered
in King county in 1859 and mining be-
gan near the present Issaquah in 1862.
Shipments to San Francisco began in
1871, and since then the Washington
mines have been an important source
of coal supply to the San Francisco
market. About the same time the
Talbot and Renton mines, which are
in King county, began shipping, and
railroad was opened between the
Renton mines ard Seattle in 1877
Production in the Green River field, in
King county, began between 1880 and
1885, and the Pierce county fields,
which had been opened in 1875 and
afterward abandoned, resumed ship
ments about the same time. The Ros-
lyn mines, on the east side of the
Cascade range, were opened in the
first half of the same decade. The
Bellingham bay mines. in the first
year of their recorded production,
1860, shipped 1874 tons. In 1906 Wash
ington's output Of coal was 3,276,1S4l
short tons.
The United States census report for
1860 contains the first record of coal
productions in Washington. The state
did not assume much Importance as
a coal producer, however, until the
opening of the Green River field, in
King county, between 1880 ard 1885,
and of the Roslyn mines, in Kittitas
county, which began producing about
the same time.

Patsy Clark for Senate

Hon. Patrick Clark, senator from

Friends of the Spokane mining mag

Mr.. Clark himself left for Occur
d'Alene lake this morning to spend the

to either affirm or deny the report
that he would be a candidate.
For some time past it has been ru-

aspirations and that if the fates were
propitious he might consent to the
use of his name at the primaries.
In Butte, where Mr.. Clark is even
better known than he is in Spokane
it is said to be common gossip that he
would like to go to the national capt.
tai as senator from Washington
Friends of Mr.. Clark here are said
to be quietly boosting him as the
democratic candidate.

Sweeney, who made an unsuccessful
campaign at the last election, will not
try to capture the coveted honor. Mr.
Clark may now me persuaded to try
