romenal, when it is considered that

concrete demonstration of the linan-
cial Importance of Tulsa and the tre-
mendous opportunities it presents

Without pretense of being absolute
" accurate 1t may be stated that the
total deposits Of Tulsa banks will ag-
preglte approximately 4 million dol
lars. This demonstrates two very i'm
portant things: That Tulsa people
have money and likewise have conf
dence in their banks and keep their
money in circulation. The second is
'as important as the first. The man
no possesses money yet boards IT,

the same Is true OF q bank A bank

Washington, June 4.-The senate
has passed the so called administra-
ton railroad bill, thus ending con-
test between the progressives and Re-
publican regulars which has run. on
more or less regularly for almost
three months. Not progressive voted
against the bill, which went through
by division of 30 to II. All who
voted against the bill were Demo
Gratis, so that President Taft win have
the satisfaction of rejecting that, not
withstanding all the dust and smoke
that has been kicked up in the long
senate fight. the bill has finally
emerged a real party measure.
The bill will now go to conference,
the house having already acted on a
similar measure. To gain parlia-
mentary advantage the senate, after
It had passed the bill, took the house
bill from the table, struck out all after
the enacting clause and substituted its
own bill as an amendment. This will
permit the house to disagree without
delay and ask for conference.
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-06-09

The long fight over the railroad bill
In the senate ended with both pro
gressiyes and regulars in good humor
The progressives. in explaining their
rush toward the band wagon, declared
that the bill contained many good fea-
lures and that they alone were en-.
titled to the credit for them.
The Democrats who voted for the
bill were Chamberlain of Oregon, Clay
OF Georgia. Gore of Oklahoma, Payn-
ter OF Kentucky, Simmons of North
Carolina and Stone Of Missouri.
Many Changes In Original Bill.
The bill as it passed the senate con.
tains only three or four propositions
in the same form as they appeared in
the administrator original bill. The
commerce court feature is retained,
with slight notifications, and so also
are the propositions authorizing ship
pers to select their own routes, the
provision imposing penalties for incor-
rect statements Of rates by railroad
companies, and that authorizing the
commission to begin investigation up-
on its own initiative and to control
classifcaticns. These are practically
