but could not follow them after they
drove away.
Constable j. V. HAYES took a couple
of shots at the robbers as they left
town but the shots were not returned.
Several people saw the robbers at

they worked nearly an hour before
they got the safe opened. Opinion
differs as to which way the robbers
went.

COMPANY CAN'T RAISE RATES.
Corporation Commission Alone Con-
Trolls Compensation for Phones.

Oklahoma City, Sept. 11-That the
Pioneer Telephone company has nc
authority TO raise its rates in Okla
homa City without permission from
the corporation commission, and that
the city ordinance authorizing the au-
tomato raise for every additional
1000 subscribers is void, is the hold.
ing of the supreme court in an opinion
handed down Wednesday by Chief
Justice Turner The opinion places
the final authority in rate matters
with the corporation commission.
The court holds that the citys pow.
er to grant a franchise does not in
volve the right to regulate rates and
that the attempted regulation does not
bind either party and certainly not
the state, and does not prevent the
corporation commission from estab.
fishing different rates.
In another franchise case from Bar
tlesville it is held also in an opinion
by Chief Justice Turner that mu-
nicipality cannot grant franchise to
an individual to furnish it with nat
ural gas or clothe him with the power
of exercising the right of eminent do
main in order to do so, The court
holds that this business of a public
nature has been provided for by the
state and by it entrusted to domestic
corporations only.

Progressive Party

Manhattan Hote!, New York.
Dear Sir:-I ask you to be good
enough to read the enclosed planks
from the platform of the progressive
party. We believe they offer the mer-
chants, manufacturers and industrial
leaders of the country rational, con-
structive charter of business prosper
ity. They constitute a contract made
in good faith between the progressive
party and the people of the United
States. Neither the democratic party
nor the republican party has the cour-
age to hold out any definite proposals
on this important subject.
eve intend to put a large number
of speakers on the road and use them
to advocate these and other constrc-
tive features of the platform in order
that the average man may be inform
ed as to the necessity Of a rational
program covering the relations be-
tween capital and labor in this coun-
try and development of American bus
mess at home and abroad
IF you believe as we do that the
sincere enactment of these proposals
into law will mean a higher develop
ment of our commercial prosperity
and are in favor of the vigorous adj
vocacy of the planks regardless of
what party you have been affiliated
with or are now inclined to support,
you will help defray the expenses of
such campaign by making a personal
contribution of $500 Check should be
made to my order as Treasurer and be
mailed. to the Progressive National
Committee, Manhattan Hotel, New
York City.
These funds are carefully conserv-
ed an dwill be disbursed for legitimate
expenses of which you approve.
Sincerely yours,
"(Signed) E. Fl. HOOKER,
National Treasurer" +"

BIG BUSINESS
MUST CONTRIBUTE
(By Sen. James A. Reed

Chicago, Sept. 12.-Further evi-
dence tending to prove that the third
term candidate does not treat the
money of Big Business with the same
lofty scorn that he discusses its
works, has been developed by the
series of letters which the third-term
party finance committee is sending
broadcast to heads of the great cor
porations. The latter is an appeal for
money and names the amount, s50O.OO,
which should be contributed
The third-termer has thundered ana
thema maranatha against the Stand
ard Oil, he has exhausted the vocabu-
larry of vituperation and invectiye
against the Steel Trust and has hurled
maledictio nat the Interests and yet
within the past few weeks it has been
charged that he received in 1904 over
$100,00000 from the Standard Oil to
help finance his campaign and $780,
10000 from the Steel Trust to say
nothing of smaller contributions from
other trusts and corporations, big and
little. At present in louder and more
boisterous terms than ever before he
is proclaiming himself the enemy of
big business and the anointed of the
Lord, standing upon the field OF Arm
ageddon fighting his own battles, yet
he is today financing his campaign by
levying contributions from the big in
terests and given direct pledge of
political subservience hereafter to be
rendered.
The accompanying letter was re-
ceived by the head of one of the great
industrial plants of the west which
was not long ago charged by the Unit
ed States encouragement with being
engaged in an conspiracy in restraint
of trade and commerce and with hav-
ing violated the criminal statutes of
the United States The letter was ad-
dressed to this gentleman's place of
business and not to his home. Along
with the letter was sent a circular con-
tanning excerpts from the third-term
candidates platform. The letter is as
follows:

MAY SOLVE FLAWS DELAYS"
Justice Finelite Has Plan with
Which Associates Agree.

Justice Finelite Of the City Court, re-
piled yesterday to the assertions Of Abra-
ham s. Gilbert at the dinner OF the County
LAWYERS Association at the Hotel Astor
recently, charging that many OF the laws
delays" were attributable to the justices
presiding in the various courts He added
to his answer proposition which will be
brought this week before the Board OF City
Court Justices to correct whatever may
exist of the laws delays that may he
attributed. solely TO the excess Of business.
Last week District Attorney Whitman
appeared before me-" said the justice. and
asked me how | would view a change OF
the present law that would enable justices
of the City Court to sit in General Sessions
at such times as the General Sessions cal
endar became clogged and as consequence
the Tombs became overcrowded.
MY own proposition is exactly along the
same line as that proposed by the District
Attorney. except that 1t refers to civil
cases / suggest that law he passed per
hitting the Appellate Division to make a
rule for the Supreme Court which Will
allow the justice presiding over the call
calendar TO assign cases on the supreme
Court docket for trial before justices Of the
City Court, or. I'm other words, but to the
same effect, allow a justice OF the City
Court to be assigned TO the trial OF cases
in the Supreme Court
Other justices OF the City Court ex-
pressed themselves as being in hearty &C
cord with the proposition OF Justice Fine
lite declaring that the docket OF city
Court was so strictly up to date that extra
hard work on the part of the justices Of
that court in the interests of the public
would enable them TO spare at least one
