OIL NEWS AND COMMENT
Iy W. II. Peck,

and secure Notwithstanding the fact
that the heirs Of Pearlie Jacobs, the
deceased allottee, practiced a fraud
on the commission to the Five Civil
lized Tribes in procuring her enroll
ment and in securing the allotment of
100 acres of land. Other cases OF
this character attacking the enroll
ment and allotment of lands to per-
sons who, it is alleged had died prior
to April /, 1899, have been brought
and are pending in the United States
circuit court in Eastern Oklahoma,
and it is thought this will dispose Of
such litigation.
On Monday of this week the su-
preme court of Oklahoma rendered
two more, or less important decisions
involving the title to lands in the
Creek nation. The cases are Jennie
Yarbrough VS.. Josie C. Spalding and
Clifford Ross vs.. S. NJ. Herriott. The
court upheld the constitutionality of
the act of congress approved May 81,
1908, which declares that the rolls
prepared by the Dawes commission
shall be conclusive evidence of the
quantum of Indian blood as well as
the age Of citizens, 1t is thought the
effect of the decisions Is that such
enrolment records are conclusive rs
to age of allottee in so far Is his con-
veyances made after July 26, 1908 are
concerned, but not as to conveyances
made by him prior to that date.
Indications are that the Miller well
in southeast Archer county, Texas,
is good for twenty-five to forty bar
rels a day. Stands five hundred feet
Of oil in hole, no water, no gas. Eight
cen feet Of pay sand similar to Elec-
ira sand. Bottom of hole nine hun
dred and seventyfour feet. Oil tests
thirty-five degrees gravity. Is very
dark but lively. Electra tests forty

prices prevail; excitement is high.

FIRESTONE PERFECTS
TIRE THAT REDUCES
BATTERY DECREASE

one Of the most important developments
of the annual conference of statesmen of
the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company
at Akron, Ohio, just concluded, was the
announcement of the perfection of a tire
which would reduce battery consumption
per mile by at least IL per cent
The conference, which was a most en-
thusiastic one. brought out many points.
but from the standpoint of the electric
car owner none was so important as this
one.

Every Car For Itself.
The way to travel across country in
am automobile is on basis of each car
for itself
II YOU are coming to the show get up
a party just big enough to comfortably
mn your car. Don't overcrowd., Leave
plenty Of room for luggage, Don't fix
any schedule, Don't be too particular
about a route. Just pack up. start some
morning with the radiator pointed to-
ate speed, until YOU get there or until
night fails Put up at the first decent
hotel YOU see and start at comfortable
hour the next morning for Atlanta.
Take it easy That's the way to get
comfort out of automobilng.
Few preparations are necessary for a
trip of that sort. BE sure you have a
little extra oil ana gasoline tucked
away somewhere where neither vii,
leak. They may come in handy. You
don't need much. for oil and gas can
ho purchased almost anywhere these
days, or course. provide yourself with
Tan that is neeufu in the way Of tires.
What YOU viii need TO carry will de-
pend, of course. on the length of your
trip
Don't litter up with a lot Of tools ana
ritory is well supplied with automobile
repair shops
Send Baggage BY Express.
Don't load the car down with a lot Of
luggage. If YOU are to stay in Atlanta
for several days and need real clothes
ship them ahead by express. They will
turn up in better order and they will
make tt easier on your car
il is always safe enough to carry a
length Of rope. and a shovel isn't to be

.auy chance, forget a set of chains-and
have them for all four wheels. 1t is
easy to guard against skid. but

this map how fal they are from the
main routes and can judge of the length
and difficulties of the trip.
How TO Get to Atlanta.
There are five main trunk lines into
Atlanta--hve routes that have been
secuted out, mapped and over which
road readings have been made. These
four come, approximately, from the
north. south, west, northwest and east.
Roughly, the five routes are as fol-
lows:
NORTH Extending from Atlanta,
through Marietta and CartersviIle to
Chattanooga, There it joins three 9TH
er trunk liues. one northwest TO Nash
vile. another northeast to Knoxville
and Bristol and one southwest - Deca-
tur. Ala.
NORTHEAST route is the so
called National highway. 1t extends
through Anderson, Greenville, Charlotte
and Greensboro. up through Virginia
and on to New York.
EAST-This is the road to Augusta.
At Augusta ii branches. one branch
running to Macon, one to Savannah and
one-the so-Called Capital to Capital
route to Camden. Pinehurst and thence
north through Raleigh, and Richmond
to New York.
SOUTH-This is the continuation of
the National highway through Macon
to Jacksonville. At Macon a road in
tersects that extends from Augusta to
Montgomery, and taps southern Geor-
gia and Alabama.
WEST This is little known route
through Douglasville and EdWardsvile
to Birmingham. At the Alabama me-
tropolis this road intersects north
south road from Chattanooga to Mont
gomery; and II also extends southwest
to the Mississippi river.
AS to the Northern Route.
Two routes exist to Chattanooga. one
is through Rome The other runs al
most due north from Cartersville.
Either ought to be fairly good in dry
weather The road from Rome to All
lanta is excellent What it is the other
side of Rome we do not know from
personal experience, and the road read
ings are silent on the subject, SO the
worst is to be feared.
The Route Through Rome.
In getting to Atlanta from Chatta-
nooga by way OF Rome the tourist
leaves Chattanooga by way of McCallie
avenue and on TO Lafayette. From
there only one town lies between the
tourist and Rome, and that town is
Summerville. From Rome south the
roads are good in fair weather and the
tourist passes through Kingston, Car
tersvtlle, Kenuesaw, Marietta and At
lanta. This is a much travelled road
and one any tourist can scout out with
out trouble good tip is to follow
the main body Of wires and the main
line of telegraph poles
The Alternative Route.
The other route from Chattanooga
carries the tourist on Missionary Ridge
past the cavalry post. across Reeds
bridge. and on TO Ringgold From there
the route passes through Milhcans
Tunnel Hill Dalton. Resaca, Calhoun,
Adairsville, &. svile and on to Car
tersvllle, from which point il is clear
sailing To Atlanta.
National Highway Good

are a few sandy stretches but they are
not likely to be troublesome.
The route from GreenvilIe as
mapped out in the Blue Book leads
through Oak Grove Piedmont and An
dersou. Lavouia, Bowersville. Canon.
Royston, Franklin Springs, Pocataligo,
Commerce jefferson, Winder Law
reuceyille. Stone Mountain, Charleston
Scottdale ana Decatur
This. by the way. is not the real ma
tioual highway as used by the Glijden
tour of 1911. This route runs through
Anderson Fairplay, across the Tugalou
river al kuoN Bridge. through Lavonia,
Gainesville, Commerce, Jefferson Win
der Auburn Station, Duluth, Pittman
Norcryss Doyayiue. Chamblee Station
and Buckhead to Atlanta. Either Of
these routes is first class
Augusta to Atlanta.
From Augusta to Atlanta there are
good roads, with some scattering and
not very bad exceptions. The worst
roads are between Greensboro and
Madison. The route runs through
Bonesviue. Crawfordviue tnion Point,
Greensboro Madison, Rutledgc, Social
circle. Covington, Lithonia, stone
Mountain and Decatur to Alabama.
Macon Route Familiar.
The Macon route is so we'll known
that mention is bare.y necessary. 1t
extends from Macon through Lorraine,
Forsyth. GAINESVILLE, Griffin. Jonesboro
TO Atlanta
From Naldosta north to Macon is
fine strip of road, in parts the equal of
anything in Dixie. The cities passed
passed through after leaving Naldosta
are Hahira, Abel LenoX. Tifton, Chula.

MONROE IGOU

The friends Of Mr.. and Mrs. Sam
Igou deeply sympathize with them in
the loss Of their bright little son.
Monroe, who died al the home of his
parents on Lime street late YESTERDAY
afternoon.
Sir. and Mrs. Igou came TO this city
some months ago and in the brief
time they have been here have made a
high place for themselves in the es-
TEEN Of all who have made their ac-
quaintance, which spirit of good Will
included their little son. who was a
smart little boy in his tenth year.
Little Monroe was taken down with
measles a few days ago. and before he
could make Roadway against it, pneu-
monia developed and the combination
proved TOO much, although he had the
best of nursing and medical attend
ance.
The funeral services were held this
afternoon at the residence. Rev. ]. 3.
Ley officiated and many sympathizing
friends were present Interment was
made in Greenwood. McIver & Mac
Kay had charge of the arrangements
Messrs. John Martin. Fred McAteer.
W. VI. Gober and Edwin Spencer were
the pail bearers.

talented young girl friends, who gave
this additional charm to the occasion,
and made the many visitors all the
more pleased with their stay.
Young ladies and matrons dressed
as Japanese mattresses served the
