Oklahoma gets more and harder
knocks than any other state in the
union. and yet it has made a more
.apid growth than any OF them. Its
soil will produce anything crown in
the older states, and many things
they cannot raise. Its people. in the
main, are wide awake, energetic, hus-
Ting; its schools are far in advance
of many of its neighbors, and the
buildings are modern. Oklahoma at
the present lme is the state for the
northern renter who wants 70 own a
home of his own. Land is low in
price now, but is increasing rapidly,
and in n few years will command as
high a figure as It does now in Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Illinois. That this
statement is true is proven by the
fact that $75 per acre has been re-
fused for farm land near Boynton that
sold for $25 five years ago. There
are good farms here that can be
bought for little more than half that
that have never been touched by the
pillow. Now is the accepted time for
the man of small means to get a home
in what is destined to become one of

lot OF money by paying too much for
what they get. Advertising is the
medium between the seller and the
buyer, and It is to the buyers interest
TO keep posted as to prices, which he
can do by reading the quotations in
ads. Advertisements offer the best

to most of our readers that our gen

make change for you when you make
purchases at Uncle Sans office This
is a queer rule that not one in thou

or any purchases at postoffice must
furnish their own change; i. e., the

furnishing his own change if he sees
fit to do it; but usually the postmas-

RAILWAY NOTES.

Several weeks ago a report was cir
culated that the Union Pacific would
install soda fountains on its through
trains during the summer months.
Since then officials of the road have
received many offers from manufacture
ino houses. Local officials have re-
ceived information from the general
offices in Omaha, denying that such an
innovation is planned, and requesting
local officials to make a denial.
The Katy has placed an order for a.
600 tons of rails, which are to be used
in improvement work on various sec
tions of the system.
The Southern railway has placed an
order for So locomotives, the largest or
der for locomotives in a long time. The
railroads have been slow to buy mo-
tive power and their deficiencies in this
respect are striking and quite general.
The interstate commerce commission
has issued an order putting an end to
the practice of railroads, for the sake
of convenience, selling passenger tick
cts wherever possible at a rate in
multiples Of cents. By the new order
carriers are required to make the
charge in odd cents, exacting the pre-
else fares in all cases. The order will
require them to revise nearly all their

Finneran had called Bliss out before he
bumped into Hunter and President
Lynch finds that the collision followed
from Hunters position in the path of
the runner. Therefore he rules that
the ball was in play when Bresnahan

to intentional interference but to an
unavoidable accident Pittsburg nro-

CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES.
Both Santa Fe and Rock Island Make
Big Slices.

Another good report was made by
the Atchison for March. Its gross earn
ings were $9,267, 900, a small increase
over the gross in the month last year.
while the operating expenses were cut
$4,000. For nine months to March 81
the roads gross was $S1, $4,000, an in
crease Of $3,476, 000 and the net $28,176,-
900, an increase Of $1,S35, 900.
Report of the Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific for March will show a small
loss in gross, but as a result Of lower
operating costs, a substantial gain in
net, although somewhat below the av-
erage increase for previous months.
While shipments of both grain and
lumber showed a falling off in March,
the loss in gross was due mainly to
the heavy decline in the movement of
coal, a result of mild weather and the
abnormal movement during the same
season last year. due to stocking up in
anticipation Of the Illinois coal strike
tnaugurated April 1.

NEW SANTA FE EXTENSION.
Timber Line From Carthage, Texas, to
Shreveport, La.

Carthage, Tex, May 2-The Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe has under
consideration the proposition of build
ing a branch line from Carthage to
Shreveport, La, a distance of about so
miles. Representatives of the road
have gone over the route and it is sta
ted that it has been fayorably report
ed upon. A number Of timber land
owners and leading lumber men are
greatly interested in the construction
of the road, and it was upon the urgent
suggestion of these interests that the
matter was taken up by the Santa Fe.
The line, if it is built, will run through
a virgin timber country, and, besides,
will AFFORD a direct outlet for the Santa
Fe to Shreveport and a number of con-
Meeting lines in that city.
