Good Play Coming

A good play like wine, improves with

in fact, has the piece proved - be
that only a few of the larger cities
have been privileged to see it. For
those who have been mpati riiy
awaiting the coming of the piece is
decidedly satisfactory to learn that it
will be presented with many of the
original metropolitan cast in their or

"king Dodo."

Of all the comedy opera successes
which\ have been produced in recent
years no work of the kind has sur
passed in popularity that of PiXley
and Luders' King Dodo', which John
Cort will present at the Keylor Grand
in the near future.
The reasons for King Dodos" pop
ularity are easily explained. In the
first place it differs widely from the
usual comedy opera in that there is
not line from the beginning until
the end which can be misconstrued
is not a line at which even the most
captious could take offense The 9TH
more than twenty as charming mu-
steal numbers as have ever been given

is a flow of melody that not only
which once heard is not easily for

characterizes all of John Cort's pro-
auctions The scenery, properties and
effects are all new and the costumes
are gorgeous in their beauty

SILENCE NOW RElGNs
AT G. o. p. HEADQUARTERS

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 2.-Now that
Joe Norris and Herbert House have
landed their federal jobs, things about
Republican headquarters have as
sumed death-like silence. From the
tone of the Republican press all over
the state 1t is conceded that their jobs
were obtained at the cost Of party in
terests. Several of the most radical
papers, like the Tulsa World, concede
that all of the trouble connected with
the referendum petition was caused by
neglect on the part of the chairman
and secretary, and they are now heav-
ing sigh of relief and expressing a
hope that Republican interests will be
better safeguarded now that the Off
GERS Of the committee have more time
to look after the interests of the party

FuIfilS Promises
Made to the Trusts

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 2.--The Okla
homa State Capital, official apologist
of the G. o. P. in Oklahoma, ran a
great big head line in Saturday morn
ing's issue which said: "The tariff
bill prepared by Republicans fulfills
promises"
For once the State Capital has told
the truth. The tariff bill is in strict
conformity with promises which Sc
Cured for the Republican campaign
committee millions of dollars in con-
tributions. 1t is in conformity with
promises which ELECTED the earnest
support of all the trusts and combines
of the nation, but it is Numerically OPP
posite to the promises made in their
platform to the people of the United
States.
This serves to show that the Repub-
lican party regards as much more sac
red a promise to the trusts on the side
than a promise made to the people
through its platform

FRISCO WILL DOUBLE
TRACK PART OF LINE

Sapulpa, Okla, Aug. 2.--That the
Frisco is preparing to lay double track
from Tulsa to Monett, Mo-, the be,
ginning of a double track from Monett
to Guthrie, is the story given out by
high officials of the road, and the pres
ent grading along the line from Sa-
pulpa to Monet is strong indication
that the story is true The culverts
will be widened, and the grading along
the line will be of character to al
low double track. The plans call for
a twenty-four-inch ballest all ties to
be Of creosote, with rails each weigh
ing eighty-fiye pounds on the ties. Ten
gangs started during the past week on
the big improvement, and by the mid
die Of the week it is expected that 500
men will be at work. Practical rail-
road men are of the opinion that the
improvement will cost In excess Of
s75O,0OO.

DON'T LIKE ECONOMY.

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 2.-The Repub-
lican press Of the state pretends to be
very much dissatisfied with the econ
omy practiced by the Democratic adj
ministration. The State Capital is par
ticularly vociferous in declaiming its
contempt for the Democratic brand.
When It is remembered that the State
Capital use to receive three dollars per
volume for printing the supreme court
reports and that the same work is now
being performed for Sc cents it can
readily be seen why the State Capital
objects to this kind of economy.

heat, absence Of vain throughout the
state as whole. and high winds
caused slump in the growing condi-
tioDy of some OF the staple crops dur
ing July; is the report of the state
board OF agriculture,
Corn was the principal sufferer, fail
ing 25.6 per cent during thirty days,
and is III per cent behind the show
ing for this month last year. Plenty
of moisture appears to have been pres
ent in the soil, and as far as the corn
plant was concerned, was up to the
standard for this date July 25). The
intense heat, the reports says, was
very destructive, dried and retarded
development Of the plant and from the
top, killing the pollen and preventing
fertilization.
Cotton had not suffered materially
up to July %, but many correspondents
added to their reports, that the staple
on upland had, on account Of the
drouth, stopped growing and was she'd
ding. The growing condition Of cot
ton was 1853 per cent, as compared
with SO.7 per cent last month, de-
crease OF 5.4 per cent, but is 1874 per
cent ahead OF the 1908 crop at this
period.
The showing for corn was 64.4 per
cent as compared with 80 per cent for
last month. S39 per cent for May, and
76.1 per cent for this date last year.
The average yield per acre of winter
wheat harvested this season was 1872
bushels, and based upon 1,O0O,235 acres
planted, the total yield will be 12,2O2,-
867 bushels. This. the report says. be
ing marketed at the average value for
the state of SO. cents, shows the wheat
crop value to be on the estimated
yield s12,OS0,83S That the wheat yield
and grade are better than most author
tiles expected, the report says, Is
shown in the average test for the en-
tire state to be 59S pounds per bushel
In point Of production the 1909 croT
is 71-7 per cent of the crop of 1908
Owing to the decreased acreage, how
ever, the total value Of the 1909 croI
lis 50 per cent as compared with ;Lt
value for 1908.
The acreage planted to oats in ths
springs of 1909 was practically The
same as that planted in the spring O
1908 (456,1O6 acres), the estimated
yield being 30.2 bushels, or tota
production OF 13,774,4O1 barrels. A
