WEST ON GAS SITUATION.
Natural Product Handled So as to
lniure Interests of State

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. AT,
torney General West outlined his po-
sition on the natural gas situation III
| a letter to the Kansas City Star
in reply to the request from him
as to his attitude toward the Kan
sas Natural Gas company
In the letter he says:
Il have no attitude whatever to-
l.ward the Kansas Natural Gas com
pany. | am not interested in it any
way whatsoever, and have been en-
gagged in great deal of litigation
with it. | don Ike the way it does
business, and think it has inflicted
a great injury upon the people Of
Kansas and Oklahoma, and has been
Of very little use to the people OF
Kansas City. This is my opinion i'll
the matter after five or six years
of careful observation.
IF YOU mean by my attitude you
desire to known what | intend to
do. ] shall have to decline to eX-
press that. | think it exceedingly
foolish ever to say in advance what
intend to do, except to say that
shall endeavor to enforce the laws
of this state consistently with the
laws of the United States. | think
see my way toward doing that,
and think that they know that see
it,
I'VE have been exceedingly sorry
to see that the Kansas City Star
and the city of Kansas City have
been so anxious to overturn the ma
tural gas law of oklahoma, and our
reason for thinking this is because
We believe that its overturn would
not benefit Kansas City, but would
simply injure us. The events OF
the last few months certainly have
had a tendency toward justifying us
in this view.
What we object to is the exploit
alton of the gas supply in way that
has done the city of Kansas City lit
tie good and has done us infinite
harm. Where our dwellers in towns
are forced to pay 20c, 25c and 35c
for gas, the same gas is transported
almost 300 miles to Kansas City and
there sold to the manufacturers for
less than half that price This is
caused the great waste in the gas
fields. We think it has been very
short sighted policy of Kansas City,
and ! have urged the officials of
your city to put an end to it, ana
have stated that if they did not put
an end to il very soon, that | shall !
endeavor to do something to deter ii |
at this end, and that that endeavor
may perhaps lead to their indirect !
injury.
of course, you realize that certain |
cities in this state, such as Bartles-
Vile and Sapuipa, which are situated
IN the very midst of the gas fields,
lnXiously advertise the possession of
gas. They think that they will have
gas there as long as there is any.

GOLD FOUND AT KADoKA
[ SEAL !

Gold has been found in and near
the town of Kadoka. Gold was first
discovered here by George Bertsch
about six months ago, but the dis
covery was not made public. A sam
pie of the ore was sent to an assayer
and when the certificate returned it
showed the valuation to be placed at
1872 per ton. This specimen was TAX
en- from small dam few rods from
the city. The next sample to be sent
for inspection was taken from the
cellar of one of the residents of Ka-
doka, and this proved to be worth at
least $500 per ton.
The people there are greatly excit-
ed over the finding of the hidden
treasure. Mr.. Bertsch has found that
his dam is built on strip of ground
which is rich with the yellow treas
ure, and he is now busy draining the
dam. Cars are being loaded for ship
ment in the old fashioned spade and
shovel wav to be shipped to the stamp
mills in the Black Hills. Machinery
has been ordered by Mr.. Bertsch and
j. L. Doty to carry on the work in a
more scientific manner.

was fred from a SO calibre revolver,
