For State Senator Hon. E. Vim.
DreibhOIz.

In our announcement column
this week we print the name of the
excellent gentleman whose name
forms a caption to this article.
Mr.. Dreibholz has been extensive
ly engaged in the lum Der business
in this parish for many years.
His every business act has been
characterized with the utmost
rectitude and adherence to the ex-
emp)ary teachings of the golden
rule. AS a lifelong Democrat, he
stood with the party in its most
trying times and has always taken
keen interest in all public affairs.
He was a soldier in the Confeder.
ate war, and as a citizen, he has
always performed his duties I'M
selfishly and is widely known for
his kind disposition and generous
and charitable leanings. He was
member of the School Board of
this Parish for many years, a
member ofthe Constitutional Con-
ven.ion of 1898, and is now mem
Der Of the State Legislature from
the Parish Of st. Mary. There

should he again be honred with
the confidence of the people,
which, no doubt, he will be.
The BANNER knows of no man
more deserving and worthy than
Mr.. Dreibh olz for the position of
State Senator from the Eleventh
Senatorial District, and recon-
mends his candidacy to the favor
able consideration of all voters of
the parishes of st. Mary and Yer
million. He is practical and ex-
perienced and would make an ex-
cellent Senator. We heartily en-
dorsed Mr.. Dreibholz candidacy.

THAT CHEF MENTEUR BUBBLE.

After all the obstreperous, not
to say ridiculous, clamor that has
been raised by newspapers op-
posing the candidacy of Hon.
John T. Michel for Governor with
regard to his purchases of State
lands in the Chef Menteur swamp,
adjacent to the city of New Or
leans, and the beartless and
tyrannical methods it was alleged
he employed to Cypress the settlers
on these lands, it is gratifying to
see these settlers or squatters, over
their own signatures or by no.
tarial sworn documents, come for
ward and say emphatically that
they experienced not the least
hardship from the Michel trans
actions comprising their pos
sessions; that on the contrary
they were considerably benefited
thereby in a number of ways.
The information go Industrious
ly circulated that these settlers
were "poor fishermen" is proven
to be entirely false by the facts.
These settlers, it is shown, are all
wealthy or well-to-do people who
mainly reside in the city of New
Orleans and have simply held the
lands for pleasure, hunting and
sporting purposes generally. BY
painting lurid picture of poverty
and want among these people,
cunningly supplemented by the
cruel exactions of an unrelenting
and callous-hearted landlord, it
was the hope of these anti Michel
organs that such an argument
would appeal SO strongly to such
q large plumber of voters through.
out the State as to diminish his
and endanger his cleo
ton. Happily, it did not take
long or require much of an effort
to burst this bubble and it is
now az effectually and thoroughly
exploded as it could be. The |
;rrti of every slander or calumny |
will always survive aud return to
the columniator and
hwart his sordid or nefarious
motives, and this one has been no
to the rule. After all,

plant has been made. This makes the
Peoples Ice Company the largest ice
manufacturer in the state. Much of the
old equipment has been dispensed with,
the company's holdings being replaced
by new, up-to-date apparatus, assuring
the best product that can come from the
machines which have supplanted the
old natural ice of the past.
The ice manufactured by the Tulsa
Corporation is guaranteed against pol
luton from any source, as only distilled
water is used in it's production. All
water is put through a process especial
ly adopted by the corporation and when
it emerges from the pipes after this
treatment it is ready for the cooling
process, which turns it into a preserva-
tive of fruits, meats and other ediblcs
Under the distribution Of the Peo-
pies Ice Company over 500 cars of ice
were shipped to forty-two different
towns in Oklahoma last year. Ship
ments were made as far north as Sen
eca, Mo-; on the south to Ada, Okla; on
the east to Muskogee, Okla, and on the
west to Perry Okla. making them one
Of the largest, if not the most extens-
i've, shippers Of ice in Oklahoma The
company marks its success by the abil-
ity to furnish ice during the mid-sum-
mer season, at time when ice is in
great demand.
With the increase of the capacity Of
the plant and the continued prosperity
of Tulsa the company both in its pow
er and ice department, is increasing its
payroll from week to week. The Tulsa
Corporation Is one Of the few public
service corporations that has been able
to keep in advance of the growing city
of Tulsa. The enlargement Of every
department in the plant has not discon-

tinued since the day of establishment.
Work has been completed since Janu-
ary 1st on the installation Of two NAM
moth boilers of 500-horsepower each.
Besides this, 1500-horsepower engine
and generator is being placed in tho
electrical department.
Next season the company expects
better year. and already are planning to
care for the ever-increasing storage
business. The Tulsa Corporation is
now furnishing refrigeration for sew
eral of the large concerns not equipped
with facilities for the manufacture Of
ice. Among these is the Tulsa Packing
Company, which does an extensive
packing business in this vicinity.
With the new delivery system in
vogue for the present season and the in
creased capacity Of the company, it is
the general belief by its officers that
nothing but success will follow the ef
forts Of the management. In tho pro-
duction Of ice at the Tulsa Corpora
TONS plant only the most advanced and
sanitary methods are used. Every
thing which goes with the most up-to-
date plant Of its kind is now in service,
and with experienced employees, no
matter how great the demand general
air of confidence is held by the officers
that they can be met with perfect sat
isfaction to all concerned.
When practically new business en-
ters the local field it means that the
success it will receive must go with the
advancement of the times. Many things
must be taken into consideration. The
people will have the other ice com
panies here, also, and the one which fur
nishes the best material will be the one
to prosper. There are other matters to
be taken into consideration. Naturally
there will be competition. The rival

companies will continue to make it
more difficult to meet expenses, provid-
ing reduction in sale prices is made,
but the company furnishing the best
service cannot be kept in the rear. So
the Tulsa Corporation looks forward to
the best trade from the mere fact that
it will be able to meet all demands made
upon it with better service and higher
grade product Companies which man
ufactTe with the old-fashioned equip
ment cannot be insured Of the trade as
the thoroughly modern and up-to-date
concerns. Physicians have said that no
matter how pure the water used, when
impure ice Is placed in it the entire
liquid is made impure and results many
times in disease.
The entire city lighting system is
furnished with the power from the Tul-
sa Corporation power plant. The cor
poration holds a franchise with the city
Of Tulsa, gained through contract sub
mitted as the lowest bidder Showing
that this company is more proficient
than many others of its kind in the
state, the street car companies operat-
ing in the city have not gone to the ex-
pense Of constructing a power plant Of
their own. The reason is that they can
buy power cheaper from the company
producing it under the most advanced
methods than they can make it them
selves. Both the Tulsa Street Railway
and the Oklahoma Union Traction
Company are patrons. Few people have
an idea of the size Of this institution.
A visit would amply repay one for the
trouble, especially those who have new
er seen the ponderous gas engines and
motors in operation.
The service of all departments Of
the Tulsa Corporation cannot be rivaled
by any like concern in the entire state.
Only hopes for better future are held
by all those interested in the progress
Of the city's most important industry.

the Tulsa Corporation has
developed an enormous business in the
city Of Tulsa and surrounding towns.
The corporation launched forth in busi-
ness here in June, 1907, and was at that
time considered an infant industry,
having purchased the electrical prop
erty of the Peoples Gas & Electric
Company. The property was taken
over by stock company organized
among men interested in the local oil
fields, fostered during its struggling
period, and built to the enormous busi-
ness now done by the concern.
Later, the Peoples Ice Company
was formed to handle the ice output,
and Paul NJ. Galloway brought here to
manage the enterprise. With his wide
experience in business of this nature,
Manager Galloway has formed the en-
bryo for many new ideas in the ice bust
ness, until this department Of the Tulsa
Corporation is now considered without
a rival from the standpoint Of efficiency
or service and product in the entire

According to the new plans of deal
ing with the public, especial attention
will be paid by the management to the
rapid delivery of ice, with squad Of

accomplished by the new delivery wag-
ons which have been secured at great
expense, but the management declares
that to make the corporation the sue
cess that is planned they must double
their accommodations.

ing about 2:30 o'clock. He was
standing on trolley ore ear to open
the gate of "A chute for the ore to
fall into the car, when he fell
against the trolley wire, which
struck him across the mouth, and il
seems that his feet were caught in
the ore SO that he couldn't extricute
himself or get rid of the wire across
his face and mouth, The motorman
failing in an effort to extricate him
ran to the switch aud turned of the
current, but when he got back to the

The wire was charged with only 80
voltage, but continuous contact
with the wire for the length of time
that passed before the current could
be shut off did its deadly work.
