In the very near future there will
be thousands Of bridges and culyerts
built in Oklahoma. In all probability.
Craig county will spend from $4,000
10 $4,000 for such structures within
the next year or so The point the
Chieftain wants to drive home at the
very beginning Is that they, wherever
at all practicable should be built of
stone or concrete Build no wooden
bridges and but few steel ones. 1t Is
said that bridges constructed by
julius Caesar more than two thousand
years ago in Rome are still standing.

daI Causes the Downfall.

Paris, July 21.-The Clemenceau
cabinet fell suddenly last night under
dramatic circumstances, at the con
clusion of a violent debate over the
naval scandals, extending over sew
eral days.
M. Delcasse, chairman of the inves.
tigating commission, led the attack
upon the naval administration.
Premier Clemenceau tainted the ex.
minister of foreign affairs, who was
thrown overheard blythe Rouvier min
istry at the dictation of Germany dur,
ing the crisis of 1905, with having led
France to humiliation at Algeciras.
The specter of that chapter OF
Frances foreign history in which Del
casse was sacrificed was fatal error
The scene when the premier took
his seat was indescribable. Amid the
widest excitement the vote was taker
and when II was announced that the
government had been beaten 2l2 to

palace and told the story to President
Fallieres, who seemed Supplied at the

tempt to conduct 1875 alleged strike

BLOW TO MluER'S Defense
NO Ak NEAR sAYl.ER's BODY SAY
WITNESSES.
Indictment for First Degree Murder
In Crescent City Tragedy Is
Expected To-day.

Watseka, ILL.,, July 21.-The testi-
mony of witnesses before the grand
Jury here investigating the Sayler
murder, tends to~pnt to rout the self
defense plea of the defendant, Dr. w.
r. Miller. An indictment for first de-
gree murder is expected to-day.
Edward Meyer, D. III. Meyer, Ed
ward Blanton and Van Harwood of
Crescent City, neighbors of the Say
Ter family, testified that, attracted by
the shooting, they arrived at the Say
Ter home within -four minutes of the
tragedy. On their arrival, DR.. Miller
was standing near the doorway. Say.
ler's body was lying on the floor in a
small pool of blood. Mrs. Sayler was
not in the room. Each of the four
declared there was no ak or other
weapon in sight, although some hours
later a bloody ak with which DR..
Miller asserts he was attacked was
found beside Sayler's body.
The state contends that this evi,
dence, with conflicting statements
made by Mrs. Sayler and DR.. Miller
regarding the attack, goes to prove
there was no attack, that the murder
was 5premeditated, and that Mrs. Say
lers Miller and Mrs. Sayler's father
John Grunden, and her fathers broth
er, Ira Grunden, conspired to manu-
Nacture evidence after the Staying.
The sealed package which the dead
banker, saying that he feared for his
life, gave into the hands of his bust
ness partner for safe-keeping, will
play a prominent part in the trial al
though the contents still remain a Sc
cret. It was said the letter from DR.
Miller to Mrs. Sayler, found In thu
packet, contains threat against Say
Ter. In the package there is also ;
statement by Sayler concerning hi
family affairs, and indicating that h
feared DR.. Miller.

WRIGHT BREAKS AIR RECORD
TRAVELS 70 MILES IN HOUR AND
20 MINUTES.
Cuts Figure Fights and Electrifies a
Large Crowd by His Daring
Maneuvers.

Washington, July 21.-Establishing
a new record for aviation in America,
Orville Wright, in the Wright aero
plane at Fort Myer, made spectac-
ular flight Of one hour, 20 minutes and
as seconds duration. The longest
previous flight was of IA minutes
made by Wright at Fort Myer last
fall.
During the entire flight the machine
was under perfect control, but sew
eral times appeared to the spectators
to be on the point of diving forward,
Several thousand persons were given
an exhibition which included the most
daring feats of aviation yet accom-
plished, and at its conclusion a
mighty cheer went up from the throng.
The machine Travelled distance of
about 70 miles, it was estimated by
Wilbur Wright, and at one time dur
ing the fight the height attained, be-
tween 260 and $50 feet, exceeded the
highest point ever reached by a
heavier than air machine on this con-
tinent. The most wonderful part of
the flight was the execution of three
complete figure Fights" which re-
quired careful maneuvering in direct
ing the machine.
Not the slightest mishap occurred
during the fight but there were mo-
ments when the crowd watched al
most breathlessly fearing the aviator
was losing control of the, bird-like
flyer, apparently beginning to dive to
the earth, would regain it's equilibrium
and speed onward around the oval
above the parade grounds. After
rounding the course half a hundred
times the aviator directed the ma
chimes course around the small double
circles of figure eight" 1t was the
first time this season and the second
time during his career he has exc,
cuted this maneuver.
To the amazement of the crowd the
machine described h second eight and
then a third one, after which it was
guided back to its former course of
large ovals.

Des Moines, July 21.-The purchase
by William B. Mckinley, the illinois
congressman of Tie Des Moines Elec-
trio Company for 100000 followed
quickly by his control of the Des
Moines city railway company means
much for all Iowa, particularly the
eastern and southern half.
While Mckinley has denied that he
has bought the city railroad company
for $1,000,000 as reported. it is known
he has control of the stock and that
he can force possession as soon as he
wants to which will be as soon as the
people give him franchise. He has
stated. that he will at once spend
100000 on the plant in building track
and buying new cars. Nearly ST.,
100000 is to be spent at once upon the
Des Moines Electric Company plant
in installing costly generators and en-.
gines and boilers to run them.
The Mckinley interests own sou
miles of track and some 80 electric
light plants in illinois worth millions
and are building a bridge across the
Mississippi river at st. Louis which
will be finished in a year or two.
The wise ones think that mckinley
either has or will soon control thu
Colfax interhrban road and extend I
| east and south reaching Ottumwa anc
perhaps Keokuk and thence enter st
Louis and connecting with the bridge
Just what he will do with othel
| lines is not known but says he viii
build many roads out of Des Nome;
and make it the Indianapolis of Iowa
great interurban center. This would
mean that in a few years he will have
lines all over the state on which he
will run through trains in competition
with the steam roads as he does II
Illinois where mis- electric trains carry
sleepers and dining cars and make
fast time. g."
He has already been deluged witt
propositions for new lines in Iowa ant
says he will give all of them consider
alton and states as a positive fac
that he will begin construction OF
some of his new lines soon.
The recent organization of the De
Moines Electric Company increased
their stock to $1O,OO0,O0O and it 1
understood that the men behind Nc
Kinley have paid this up in full AM
that it is to be used in construction
of interurban roads in the centra
part of the state. Without doubt tn
coming of the Mckinley interests Il
Iowa is the most important event il
recent years from transportation
view point.
