TALK ON GOOD ROADS
PREsENTATIVE OF ROAD
MACHINE CONCERN GIVES
WHOLESOME ADVICE.

Good macadam roads can be built
in Carter county at from 5000 to
$1,000 per mile with the use OF CON
vict and free labor stated G. r.
hrtman. vice president of the Wm.
r. Fulton Co. a concern that han
dies road machinery altogether. The
rock that we have on hand that Is
best suited for road building, and
the general lay of the land makes
this a favored section Of the country
for good roads. In speaking OF road
building this morning. Mr. Artman
said:
81 would make estimates on the
cost Of road building in this county
with the use of modern machinery
much less than for any other sec
tion Of the country. and would be
willing TO estimate that It would not
cost over $3.50 per mile to give you
roads that would be worth ten times
that much 70 the city of Ardmore.
and save the farmers more in one
year than what II cost 10 build these
roads. You have the rock at hand,
and with the use OF traction road
engine that could be used for work
ing rock crusher the cost could be
reduced TO a minimum. When the
roadbed is to be graded the engine
could be used 70 pull two or three
good road grading machines, and
the roads graded and ditched on grade
as we'll as packed and after the
grading was finished and the rock
crushed, the same engine could be
put TO work in pulling the rock dis
tributors over the road and distrib-
utng the rock that has been crush
ed. Should however the people OF
| this section desire TO build only dirt
roads with the use of the engine,
from one TO two miles Of roads
could be built in n day and graded
The use Of good roads in building
up country goes without saying
inasmuch as everybody knows the
value OF good roads to section OF
the country"

EARNEST EFFORTS OF REPRE-
SENTATlVEs FAVOR STATE.
OKLAHOMA CITY IS FAVORED
s5oo,ooo Federal Building Bill Pend.
ing-sub Treasury for Govern
ment Funds-May Be Made
SUPPORT Of Entry.

Washington, March Special
what next? with bills pending iu
congress for a 100000 federal build.
ing for oklahoma City and another
measure seeking TO make the Okla
homa metropolis a sub-troasury for
government funds, the idea has
been advanced that oklahoma City
should also be made support OF
entry and thereby facilitate busl-
ness generally IN the southwest. At.
toutIon is called to the fact that all
foreign business transacted in the
southwest must now necessarily
pass through the ports Of Galveston,
Port Arthur Kansas city or St Lou
is. As a cotton market Oklahoma
City already ranks among the fore
most of the southwest. 1t is the seat
Of German and Japanese cotton buy
crs and a pretontious city like that
will surely be SUPPORT sooner or
later.
Congressman Fulton has not yet
introduced the bin that will off
c,ally call the attention Of congress
to this infants latest desire, but ev-
erybody who knows Mr.. Fulton
knows that the bill will be forth
coming shortly and will be pressed
in congress with all the vigor of
which a young and ambitious con
grcssman is capable. or course it
will ~ a hard and uphill fight but
the stake is well worth the trouble.
IN the meantime Fulton has already
cc0cdcd i'm getting a favorable
report from the senate committee
on public buildings and grounds on
his bill appropriatiug 100000 for
a federal building at Oklahoma City.
1t was Fulton's speech before that
committee in which he pointed out
the necessity for such building thar
made possible the report and pas
sage of the bill in the senate.
The bill providing for the location
of a subroasury at Oklahoma City
on the other hand has not MADE
much headway since its Introduction.
1t was introduced ostensibly to head
off the Kansas City fight for a sub
treasury which has been agitatlng
the minds of politicians not to say
business men for some time past.
Kansas City by reason of its loca-
tion has an excellent chance or
landing the much coveted plum, how
ever, and the further fact that Kan
sas City is a hotbed of Taftism
should also favor it against all 9th
cr contendeIs. Every newspaper In
the city of any importance is a Taft
organ. The city administration Is
also republican, This should almost
cinch the prize for Kansas City.

DEFENSE OF THE BACHELOR.
Baltimore Man Points Out a Few
Facts Generally Overlooked.

AS a matter of fact, 1t is obvious
that more crimes are committed by
married men than by single men, for
the simple reason THAT many offenses
exceedingly popular among the former
are entirely impossible to the latter.
One such crime is wife murder. How
could single man murder his wife?
There are IT'S wife murderers in the
United States every year, and all are
committed by married men. Again,
consider the crime of demonicide, or
mother-in-law killing. Its practice is
confined entirely to married men. And
forget not the lesser felonies and mis-
demeanors. How could a single man
elope with his wife's sister? How
could he desert his children? How
could he commit bigamy? How could
he flirt with his wife's maid? How
could he be accused of non-support?
What incentive is there for him to
cheat the gas meter, swindle the in
stalment man or rob his brother-in-
law at poker? Being prosperous, well
fed and happy-as all bachelors are
why should he steal, forge, embezzle,
burgle or fight ?-Baltimore Sun.

II have been treated by doctors for

COMING WEST.
Shoe industry Gradually Leaving
Eastern Coast.

Massachusetts, and Connecticut are
generally thought of as the big shoe
manufacturing states, but, as the great
west has become more densely popu-
lated, these states are slowly losing
prestige.
Wisconsin, for instance, has the
largest manufacturer Of full vamp
shoes in the world-The F. Mayer
Boot & Shoe Co. of Milwaukee. The
market for this company's product is
the great west from the Mississippi
to the Pacific. Undoubtedly it Is Mil
Yankees nearness to this great west
market which is responsible for the
great growth of this concern which
has been in proportion to the growth
of the west. In the last 25 years they
have outgrown six factories. Includ-
ing the new Seattle factory nearly
completed and the Milwaukee factory
annex built this last year the total
capacity of the Mayer Boot & Shoe
Company exceeds 5000 pairs per day,
which already has been inadequate to
meet the demand of the west.

IMPORTANCE OF THE COMMA.
Getting Punctuation Mark in Wrong
Place May Cause Trouble.

"Some lawsuits of the highest inn
portance have hinged upon the right
placing of comma" said Judge F. G..
Downing of st. Louis.
when I first started to practice
law a Missouri editor came to me in
peck of trouble to defend him
against a threatened libel suit grow
ing out of faulty punctuation. He
had not meant to give some innocent
young woman the slightest offense
when he wrote a story about two
young men who went with their girls
to attend a lecture and after they left,
the girls got drunk Putting that mis-
cradle little comma out of its right
place did the work, as it made the
girls the ones who became inebriated
instead of their escorts. managed
by proper diplomacy and the publica-
ton of neat apology to stave off
the damage suits, and afterward my
editorial friend became an expert on
punctuation"

A Proud Boy.

An Englishman who was travelling
in Turkey last winter to study the

very little respect for their parents
compared to their conduct in other

had asked him if he could read and
write and had received negative an

A TumuIt of PRAYING Girls.

In large, bare room, with cement
floor, were gathered between 80 and 40
girls, ranging in age froLN> II to 20.
By table sat sweet-faced, refined,
native young woman, watching sober
ly, attentively and without disapprov-
al the scene before her. After a few
minutes she also knelt on the floor in
silent PRAYER
The other occupants of the room
were all praying aloud. Some were
crying at the top of their lungs. The
tumult was so great that it was with
difficulty that any one voice could be
distinguished. Some of the girls were
bent over with heads touching the
floor. Some were sitting on their
feet, with shoulders and bodies witch
ing and jerking in regular commissions.
Some were swaying to and fro, from
side to side or frontwards and back
wards. Two or three were kneeling
upright, with arms and bodies moving,
One young woman, the loudest, moved
on her knees, all unconsciously, two
or three yards during the time l
watched. She had ms Jon of her
body that must have .-en the most
exhausting physical exercise. She,
like others, also swung her arms vio-
lently, often the gestures of the pray
ing figures were with one or both
hands outstretched, in dramatic sup
plication. Not infrequently, several
girls would clap their hands at the
same time, though each seemed heed
less of the others. At times the con-
tortions of the faces were painfully
agonized and perspiration streamed
over them. One girl fell over, asleep
or fainting, from sheer exhaustion.
All had their eyes tightly closed, OBJ
livious to surroundings. Such intense
and engrossing devotion had never
witnessed before. 1t was full Is min
utes before one of the girls, who had
quieted down somewhat, espied me-
Thereafter she sat silent, praying or
reading her Bible. The discovery of

BY ignorant Hindu girls speak in
Saaskrit, Hebrew, Greek, English and
other languages as yet unidentified.
The name OF Pandita Ramabai, 'the
Hindu widows friend" is known
among educated people all over the
world. She Is the most famous of all
Hindu women. There is an Interna-
tonal "Pandita Ramabai association"
which cooperates with her in her work
OF rescuing, training and caring for
high caste widows. She, more than
any other woman, has made known to
the world the horrors of the child
widows lot in India Herself high
caste widow, of rare gifts and educa-
ton, her appeal has been made to peo-
pie of culture; nor was her work re-
garded as strictly religious or mis-
sionary, not being associated with any
religious body.
A WorId-Famous Work.
Ten years ago, at the time of the
great famine, Ramabai took hundreds
of famine orphans, and ever since she
has had about 1,400 widows and or
phans and deserted girls under her
care, as well as 100 famine boys. All
caste lines are now down, and the
whole immense work is known as the
Mukti mission, although in certain re-
spects the original enterprise for
widows maintains its separate iden-
tity.
Because of the fame of Pandita
Ramabai, and because of the great
ness of her work, I conceived 1t to be
my duty to take the hot journey out
to Kedgaon. Were 1t not for the more
important incidents which follow,

half dozen other girls during the
next quarter of an hour. At my re-
quest the guide after a time asked the
leader if I might talk with her, and
while dozen of the girls were still
left, praying aloud and unaware of
the departure of the others, the leader
withdrew.
A Strange Story.
My first interest was to know wheth-
er the girls had been speaking with
tongues" that day, for I had thought
that detected one girl using English.
Yes, several of the girls had been
praying in unknown tongues, this
young woman quietly informed me.
Then, in response to my questionings,
she proceeded to tell me that these
meetings are held twice daily by girls
who have been baptized with the
Holy Spirit and fire." it is common
for them to speak in tongues which
they do not understand, and also to
be smitten dumb, so that they cannot
speak at all, even in their own Ian
guage. During the early part of the
meeting at which I was present, one
of the girls had been obliged to write
her message, because her tongue was
holden. Sometimes the girls will go
about their tasks for days, unable to
utter word, although they under
stand perfectly everything that is said
to them, and are able to pray in other
tongues, and when they especially
pray for the power to do SO they are
able to speak in religious meetings.
The girls show no effect whatever of
the terrible strain they undergo dur
ing these prayer meetings, and they
all do their regular daily work. The
burden of their prayers is intercession,
that all the mission, and all India,
may be converted and experience a
great revival and receive the Pente.
costal baptism. So much learned
from this young woman.
The Most Famous Indian Woman.
Ramabai herself is a quiet, strong
personality. She dresses after the
