an important shipping center, deriving
much Of its revenue from the actlvltles

Cities of stone.
Roth Bedford and Bloomington might
he called cities of stone, although BED
ford has the first claim TO TINS tltle'
IFS business mems club being known
as the stone City club, the tneaIer
as the Stone City opera house, ana
the trade name of the town appears
on half a hundred other enterprises IN
that city. The residences. stores and
public buildings in both OF the stone
ouarrv cities are built of Bedford
stone. and at Bloomington, where the
state university is located, the uni
yersity campus is covered with beautl-
full carved stone buildings.
The trade name for Bedford stone IS
oolitic limestone and its composition is
said by biologists to be slmIIar TO thal
of coral. According TO the scientihc
sharps, the stone was formed ages ago
bv several odd billions Of microscopic
animals working overtime and building
the Bedford stone of the future with
skeletons of their delicate little bod
les. In appreciation Of this self sacri-
fee. the solidifed burying ground OF
these little bugs of another age, the
stone was called oolitic after the polyp-
oolitis, or words to that effect
Acres of Ground Covered.
AS extensive in its scope as the great
coal mining plants Of Illinois, the quar-
ries and mills of the Bedford stone
companies cover acres of ground. Big
squat buildings house batteries OF steel
gangsaws which eat their way through
the block stone and cut it into thin
slabs. Planers. lathes, diamond pointed
drills and other machines are used for
working the stone much as wood is
worked in a modern planning mill.
Corinthian columns which require two
fiat cars to haul are often turned on
these lathes as a part of days work
Eagles for ornamental cornices are
hand hewn by the expert and high
salaried stone cutters and stone bench
es. tables, chairs and even stone sepul-
chres are made in the cutting yards Of
the big quarries.
No Powder Used.
Contrary to the popular idea Of
stone quarry, not a pound of blasting
powder or an ounce of dynamite IS
used in quarry1ng the milk Wnlle pro-
duct. Chambers are used to cut the
lodges into immense blocks, wedges
force the blocks apart and i'm
mense derrick booms lift the tons
of stone from the quarry hole to
the tramway which carries the product
to the sawmills. The stone when quar-
ried. known as green stone" among
quarrymen, is so porous when first ia
ken from the hole that it cannot be
quarried in winter, as exposure TO the
cold air causes the moisture to freeze
and burst the stone into pieces.
One of the finest examples of tire
use of Bedford stone is 10 be seen in
the Soldiers and Sailors monument in
indianapolis. The main shaft, the ap
proaches and the groups OF statues
surrounding the base are all made from
Bedford stone and they form one OF
the finest monuments in the world.

DISPOSAL PLANT

Portland Firm to Draw the
Plans-Want Local Con-
tractors to Bid.

Sanitation is the proudest boast OF
any modern city and Ell Paso with her
fast increasing population and con-
tinued addition of valuable buildings
ha srecognized that fact.
A little over a year ago bonds in the
sum of 100000 were issued for the
purpose of constructing garbage IN
GENERATING and sewage disposal plant.
Recently land was purchased IN the
Cotton addition near the river at
cost of $4,000. Now the two plants
are to be erected. Plans are to be in
the office of mayor Sweeney, whose
fondest hope has been to construct
these plants in time for the city coun-
ell TO receive bids on the work by
April 1.
These plans are to be prepared by
Fred P. Smith, secretary of the public
works engineering company, OF Port
land. Ore. who as representative of that
company, stated to the mayor and city
council al meeting held in the offlce
of the mayor Friday, that the company
would guarantee the construction of the
two plants for sum not in excess OF
500. 600. including engineering fees for
plans He will also furnish bond in
the sum of $4,000 to establish this
guarantee.
Concrete Structures.
The buildings will in all probability
be of concrete and so far as possible,
products produced in FL Paso will be
utilized in the construction OF the
buildings.
4 further guarantee, for which pur-
pose Mr.. Smith remained in FL Paso
until Friday to investigate, is that the
sewage will be purified to a degree OF
so percent which practically assures the
removal of all organic matter and path
ogenio germs to the extent of. at least
95 percent.
In the event that contractors fail to
put in bids on the work III an amount
not to exceed 500 900 including engl-
neering fees then the public works en-
gineering company viii carry on the
work of construction itself, though Mr.
Smith stated it prefers that it should be
let TO local contractors
Mayor Sweeney will prepare the con-
tract and forward it TO the company at
Portland.
Work will commence April and
within five months from that date. the
two plants will be in operation This
is part of the agreement

INDIANS DlsFRANcHIseD NEGRO

The republican papers Of the state
have made every effort to induce the
Indian to vote against the proposed
suffrage clause on the second OF Aug
ust. But how poorly they will succeed
is reflected In the laws governing the
Indians themselves, aud these laws
were passed by the Indians. Instead
of eliminating the ignorant vote.
among the negroes the indians dls'I
franchised him entirely. The law was
signed by the governor November 20,
1857. and after that date no negro had
a voice in tribal affairs. This does
not look like the Indian would be op-
posed to DISTINGUISHING the Ignorant
negro voter. Another instance of the
view the Indian takes OF the negro
was expressed in an Indian law which
denied the negro his oath in law suit
where either a white man or an Indian
was involved Still another OF the IN
dian laws which shows that the negro
does not stand so we'll with the Indian
was that any negro found with whis-
key in his possession in the old trlDai
days should be punished with thirty
nine lashes on the bare back. All the
republican newspaper talk on earth
will not influence one Indian to vote
against the negro suffrage clause. The
negroes themselves are preparing for
the law by urging their people to get
down to their books, become educated
so the law will not apply to them. The
result will be a blessing to the negro
race and will be "A blessing to Okla

LONG HAUL FOR WHEAT.
Beaver County Farmers Must Carry
Grain Average Of Forty Miles.

Beaver, Okla, July 21.-A million
bushels of wheat. harvested in Beaver
county this year, will have to be haul
ed an average of 40 miles to rail
road. A million bushels is not all the
wheat produced in Beaver county, by
any means, but some OF the crop was
raised relatively close to Englewood,
on the Santa Fe, and Liberal and
Tyrone, on the Rock Island. The pro-
ductive Gate City region, in the east
end of the county and lying between
the Beaver and Cimarron rivers, is
only 20 miles from Englewood while
a good wagon bridge across the Cim-
arron and three miles OF pike road
through the sandhills make the wor2
of the east end farmer considerably
less than formerly in getting his wheat
TO market North and west of Beaver
City the farmers have a good level
road to Liberal and Tyrone, the dis
tance from the wheat farms varying
from five to thirty miles. But from
the Beaver river south, comprising
considerably more than half OF this
county, the average distance from any
railroad is at least 30 miles The
South Flats country, which this year
has produced vast quantities of the
golden grain, is even more remote
from railroad transportation. This re-
gion is in the extreme southern pot
ton of the country, and the wheat
hauler must drive something like 60
miles to either Liberal or Tyrone or
else turn toward the southeast and
travel equally as far over worse roads
to some of the towns on the Pan
handle line of the Santa Fe.
