BILL WOULD GUT OFF
OKLAHOMA CITIES
Gas Experts Declare it Will Be Inn
possible to Supply Gas Without
The Pumps.

Guthrie, Okla, Feb. 5.-The discov-
cry was made here Friday that the
Yeager-Strain bill passed by the SEN
ate limiting the pressure of natural gas
to 800 pounds to the square inch and
prohibiting the use of pumps, may cut
off some of the leading cities of the
state from a supply of natural gas.
Gas experts declare if the bill be-
comes a law within two years Guth-
rie, Oklahoma City, Shawnee and 9TH
er cities of the state will be shut Off
from gas The gas men are here in
force and prepared to make fight in
the house committee on oil and gas
to kill the bill. They claim that the
natural rock pressure at the wells is
now 600 pounds, but that within two
years 1t will be reduced to less than
200 pounds and that the use of pumps
will be necessary in order to carry
the gas any distance from the wells.
Senator Yeager, one of the authors Of
the bill, claims that the use of suction
pumps is not prohibited in the act and
that with the use of these the use of
other pumps will not be necessary to
carry gas to any point in the state.
He declares that pumps are not being
used now that 800 pounds pressure
is sufficient to carry gas $50 miles.
AS supplementary measure to the
Yeager-Strain bill which was passed
by the senate with the intention of
preventing the piping of gas from the
state, the senate today passed bill
introduced by Davis of Sapulpa re-
pealing the section of the laws of 1909,
which permits gas companies to con-
demn lands for pumping stations. Sem
ator Davis explained that il the use Of
pumps is prohibited it will be impos-
sible to pipe gas far outside the state.
Senator Cloonana declared that by nut
ting pumps at Joplin or at any other
place near the state line the gas COM
panies can pump the gas to Kansas
or Missouri cities. He stated that he
could not see where the bill would ac-
complish the purpose for which it was
intended. Senator Davis declared that
only suction pumps could be used out
side of the state which would not be
effective, whereas, if gas companies
were permitted to place pumps in Ok
lahoma they could get behind the gas
and force it out of the state much
more effectively

LA TOILETTE, THE ORIGINAL
"INSURCENT"

La Toilette is the original I'm
surgent." That is one reason why
the special interests SO hate him.
Another reason is that he has been
successful. He was an insurgent
in Congress from 1884 to 1880.
During those years, he opposed a
scheme in Congress to steal vast
quantities of timber from the In
dians. He opposed another scheme
to give millions of dollars outright
to canal company which, to Sc
cure the necessary legislation, had
offered 100000 to the Republican
National Campaign Committee and
the same amount to the Democratic
National Campaign Committee
He killed the bill to give railroad
company the title and control Of
every town site along the railway
line in Dakota. For these high
offenses, the young insurgent, at
the age of thirty-fve, was driven
out of public life by Big Business.
For the next ten years, from
1880 to 1900, he was the open and
avowed insurgent. He was now
up against all the powers of the
state and national governments.
He was an insurgent against the
two United States Senators from
his state, against all the thousands
of federal and state office-holders
and allied politicians in Wisconsin
and against the special interests
back of such office-holders and pol
iticians. Some one at the time
asked Senator Spooner in Wash
ington. Who is that man La Fol-
lette? Spooner replied. He is a
fool who thinks he can buck
5000 miles of railroads in Wiscon-
sin
From 1900 to 1905. he was gov
ernor of Wisconsin. but he did not
cease to be an insurgent He was
still opposed by the System, which
has been against him for ten years.
The interests fought every pro-
gressive measure which he forced
through and placed upon the stat
ute books. In 1901, he was clearly
elected to the Republican National
Convention. but he had been such
an insurgent that the Interests
controlling the convention threw
him out and seated his enemies.
Senators Spooner and Quarics,
who had no right there. In Janu-
AIRY, 1906. he entered the United
States Senate, where at first he
was the only insurgcnt. On the
occasion of his first speech. the
Senators for the special interests
Of oil. coal, steel, sugar. beef, rail.
roads, etc, tried to insult him by
leaving the chamber in n body.
He said:
Il cannot be wholly Indifferent
to the fact that Senators by their
absence at this time indicate their
want of interest in what | may
have to say upon this subject.
The public is interested. Unless
this important question is rightly
settled. scnts now temporarily va
Gated may BIZ permanently vacated
