-FOUR OKLAHOMA COUNTIES
HAVE NO RAILROADS

Guthrie, Ok, Oct. 5.-A compilation of
the railroad assessments of the state by
counties, as shown By the records Of the
state auditors office, reveals the unexpeet-
ed fact that LeFlore, a county in the
southeastern part Of the state, thinly
populated and lylng for the most part IN
q mountainous district, has the highest
railroad valuation Of any county in the
state. taking front rank with a total of
S5t33.527 This condition Is explained
by the fact that il is coal mining county
and the mining district is nelworked
with railroad tracks
The same condition of affairs puts
Pittsbure county Ia second place. with
a valuation Of S6.0i7ts7. Oklahoma
City. which leads In its general wealth
comes close third in railroads, with
S6.O06.055. Lincoln and Garfield coun-
ties also come above above the S5.000,-
600 mark Delaware comes last among the
counties which have any railroad property
at all TO report, with Sl72.080. Four
counties of the state. Beaver, Cimauon
Harper and RoeerlMills, have no railroads
at all.
