Oklahoma's Record.

Better than n past, Oklahoma has a
present and future which she spells
in big letters, says a writer in the
Metropolitan Magazine In her 10000
square miles of area--which is larger
than Missouri or Arkansas and small
Ter than Kansas or Colorado, and also
larger than the whole of New Eng
has 500. .0OO,0 of property which the
assessor gets at. Especially in the
Indian Territory section she has rich
deposits of iron. lead and other min
erals. The Joplin (Mo.) zinc-lead field
the richest in the globe, extends down
into oklahoma and Arkansas. Okla
homa has oil and gas wells which are
making millioniares of some of her
red and white citizens; vast quantities
of building stone which has a national
reputation; forests of hard and soft
wood; and coal deposits which Sena-
tor La Toilette, while the statehood
bill was before Congress, placed high
in the billions of dollars.
In 1906 the State of Oklahoma
raised $40, 100000 of cotton, $4,000
600 of wheat and corn. and $4,000
600 of fruit and other agricultural
crops. In 1906 she had 5000 miles of
railway, which is increasing at a rapid
rate. Manufactures are not usually
thought of in connection with a new
community, but Oklahoma has them.
and like everything else which she
owns they are expanding with geat
speed. The figures of the Census Bu-
reau at Washington show that the
state had 1925 manufacturing estab-
lishments in 1905 with Sl6,124,O00
capital and $24,459,OOO value ot pro-
duct. This indicated that since 1900
her factories more than doubled. and
the capital quadruped and the pro-
duct tripled.

TAFT OVERCOAT is
THE LATEST

New Worthwhile merchant tall
ors gathered from all parts of the
United States, the American style and
fashion show opened in New York
yesterday and will continue until Fri
day. One well-known tailor sums up
the prediction for summer styles as
follows:
THE styles this summer will be
plain, SOFT well-taiored garments.
While some tailors stick to the col
lege styles and make snappy stuff.
the men who pay sS5 and up for suits
want the money to show in real tall
oring, not in gewgaws."
There are some startling garments
among the exhibits. Among them are
an evening coat made with hips"
and the Taft overcoat, which con-
tains enough cloth for a small circus
tent, and which. coincdently, is sent
by Charles p. Taft, of Erie, Pa, a
cousin of the President, and a smoke
colored suit from Pittsburg The
"loudest" garment in the collection is
a coat from Kansas City.

There was also a large influx Of

added more foreign population than
any other state west Of the Mississ-

Boston, June s. Afrightful tragedy

But he was still conscious and, stag

floor OF the building. Here he was IN
able to breathe, and as he tried to get
away from the suffocating place he
was jumped upon by a dozen men,
borne to the floor and captured.
Some Of the workmen were so en-

had witnessed that they lost their

get him away.
Murphy had been acting queerly of

Senate Leader Is Given Ultima.
tum That Revision Must Be

MACyfAGH IS MOUTnPltCf
Secretary's Speech Explodes Bomb IN
WashingtOn-Elder Statesmen
in Conference.

Washington. June s. - Have Presi.
dent Taft and Senator Aldrich reach.
ed an impasse?
Political Washington read yesterday
with wonder the speech OF Secretary
OF the Treasury Macveagh at Chicago
Saturday night. That speech was
more than inspired. II was revised
and o. KID by the president himself
before the secretary left Washington.
and that Mr.. Macveagh in this ad.
dress reiterated the presidents belief
that the Chicago platform promised q
downward revision Of the tariff is &C.
cepted here as formal notice on the
senate leaders that the president en-.
poets a bill that will embody such
downward revision.
Issue Sharply Drawn.
II was only a week ago that Senator
Lodge made a set speech denying that
the Chicago platform promised any
thing of the kind. A week OF SO be-
fore that Senator Aldrich made the
same declaration. He repeated 1t Fri.
day night in his explanation Of the
cotton schedule. Whatever else Is to
be said about the pending tariff bill,
here is a direct issue between the man
who is smashing the bill through the
senate and the man whose signature
will be necessary to make. It a Law.
II looks as though the president and
Aldrich were about to lock horns.
And with this implied threat of COM
bat 1t is reported that Secretary Mac.
Veagh pointedly linked with his ex.
preston on the tariff an assertion that
the president is the leader Of his par.
ty and concluded the portion Of his
speech with these words:
And you and I must agree-for we
cannot escape the conclusion-that II
might become at any time the duty Of
any great party leader to create for
his party new majority and control"
Elder Statesmen Confer.
The speech has undoubtedly explod.
ed a bombshell in the ranks OF the
old guard Of the senate.
An important conference Of senators
was held at the residence of Senator
.Aldrich last night. The senator de
clined to see any reporters and sent
out word that he would have nothing
to say about the tariff and. particular
ly. nothing about the speech Of Secre'
tary MacVeagh. What TRANSFERRED al
the conference. therefore, Is not
known, but that crisis has been
reached in the tariff debate is appar'
ent On all sides.
Wild talk Is being heard. There are
predictions that Aldrich will throw UP
his hands and concede an honest
downward revision along the lines In
dictated by Secretary MacVeagh =
down, but not down and out. The as.
sertion is made that the bill will final.
IL pass the senate this week.
