BR|DGEMAN-MARRS
READY FOR GONG

All is in readiness for the strictly
amateur boxing program at the Grand
tonight Both boys have finished their
training and are waiting for the gong.
Bridgeman with the confidence born
of an unbroken string of victories is
not worrying as to the outcome. How
ever, his much heralded ability to
|assimilate punishment. which some
are unkind enough to say is the only
mark he has of a fighter. will be test
ed to the limit, for Marrs is in condi-
ton to go ten rounds if necessary and
although this is his first ring battle,
he is taking it like an old timer.
In the preliminaries the curtain
raiser will be between Young Jack
Johnson" (alias "Skeeterp), the pride
of the east side, VS.. Frank Allen.
These two boys are well matched and
should start the fun in earnest. The
semf-wind-up will closely rival the
main bout, for Battling Alec, of Cen
tralia, who is the only man who ever
stayed the limit with Bridgeman, will
meet Lester Baxley in a five round
engagement.
The Commercial Club band which
is ever ready to boost local enter
prise, will be on hand to furnish
music.
The pictures will start promptly at
s o'clock, Immediately after which
the bouts viii take place. Everything
is in readiness as there viii be no de-
Hay. 1t will be clean program
throughout that ladies can attend as
well as gentlemen.

Yeomen at their hall last evening. The
affair was decided success and a
splendid program was rendered by the
children The feature of the evening

Davenport. The music, which was
furnished by the Chouteau orchestra
was the best heard at the hall in many
a day At the close of the evening the
entire company surrounded the tables
which were well loaded with the de
licious eatables suitable for such oc-
casions. Soon after supper the com
pany departed. thankful for the even
ing and wishing the Brotherhood OF

New Equipment Ordered BY the Mis-.
souri,. Kansas & Texa. Railway.

oOhtt1 tNoUodo " GNoS ndHWdys
In order to take care of the in.
creased business in their territory, the
NJ, X, & T. railway have placed an
order for so of the Mogul type of en-
gines. These engines are the most
modern of their style, are super-heat.
ed, and of large tonnage carrying ca
pacity.
The NJ X. & T. railway has also
placed an order for five chair cars
three dining cars, three combination
coaches and baggage cars and three
postal cars. The chair cars are OF
an entirely new pattern, with seat
ing capacity for ~ persons, equipped
with electric lights and fans,
Thedining cars are also of new
type and will accommodate SO per
sons, which is an increase of capacity
of six persons more than the largest
dining cars in ordinary service. A
feature of these cars is that there is
no platform, the body of the cars ex
tending even with the ends of the
stills.
Both the chair cars and dining cars
are of steel construction, while the
interior flnishings are plain and pleas
ing to the eye
The smoking compartments will be
eliminated in the new chair cars, max
ing them essentially Ladies Cars
and providing exceptionally pleasant

Application OF "Unlt System" on the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway.

Since taking charge of the NJ X. &
T. Ry., President c. E. Schaff and
General Manager w. e. Webb have
been working out the details of most
important system in the operation of
the road. They have had in view not
only the economic conduct of the prop
erty, but the development of increased
efficiency in the individual. The work
ing plan as adopted and now in effect
on the NJ. *. & 7. Ry.. is a new de-
parture in railroading and its results
will no doubt be watched with great
interest by operating officials of all
railroads. Under the plan as estab-
lished by President Schaff, the super
intendent of each division has COM
plete control and authority in all mat
tiers pertaining to operation, construc-
tion and maintenance on the division
assigned to him. Each superintendent
has an engineering force on his divi-
sion, which he can use in the plan
ming of new work or improving exist
ing track conditions. He also has
charge of the engine crews assigned
to his division and has the assistance
Iof travelling engineer whose duties
are to instruct the engine men in the
proper and economic handling of the
power. The superintendent in charge
of the various divisions of the road
are permitted to exercise their judg-
ment regarding expenditures in track
construction and improvement, as well
as the personnel and character of the
working forces, and with this author.
lity in their hands they should develop
individuality in thought and action in
manner and degree to accomplish
most satisfactory results. Each super
intendent is responsible to the gen
eral superintendent for the proper, eco
nomie and satisfactory handling of his
division. The new management OF
the M. K. & T. Ky, are firm believers
in the advantage to be derived from
the development of the individual, and
the superintendents have been in
structed to pay particular attention tc
this subject in the handling of the
men on their divisions, in order thai
men of ability and Judgment can dem
onstrate their individual activity.

ELECTION OFF|CERG
HARD TO GET
Few Care to Take the Risk of Entorc-
ing the Grandfather Clause.

Oklahoma City Oct. 3.-That very
serious problem faces the election
boards this fall in the manner of en-
forcing the grandfather clause, is
statement made by Ben w. Riley, sec
retary of the state election board, in
a report to Governor Cruce today.
The serious part of it being" Mr..
Riley says, TO get compeene men, or
any one at all, to fill the positions Of
inspectors and election officers in the
precincts where there is p colored pop
Iulation.'
While the report does not state, 1t
has been known for weeks that the
election board might encounter diff
Guilty in finding men who are willing
to enforce the grandfather clause as
rigidly as expected, and at the same
time face the possibility of being ar
rested for an alleged violation Of the
federal constitution. While they are
in sympathy with both the letter and
the spirit of the clause, there is said
not to be disposition on the part of
many. living in sections heavily pop
ulated with negroes, to face the ordeal
Iof being taken into court and the pos
sibility of conviction for the sake of
Ienforcing the suffrage restriction. Two
election officers were convicted in the
federal district court for western Okla
homa and given penitentiary SEN
tences, the mandate not having been
enforced, owing to the cases being on
appeal How far this feeling will go
in the November election members of
the administration are unable to say,
yet it is apparent, particularly in some
sections Of the state, the election
board will meet with difficulty in find-
ing competent men who would be will
ing to undertake the task.
Secretary Riley in his report says
the legislature should provide funds
to pay all the legitimate expenses Of
election officers who are placed under
arrest and that there should be ample
funds for legal defense of those ar
rested.

Too.Late Money.

]. S. Davenport is in receipt of the
following letter anent the payment of
moneys due the newborn Cherokee
citizens admitted to the tribal roll by
the supreme court:
Muskogee, OKLA, Oct, ,. 1912.
Honorable James S. Davenport,
vinita, Oklahoma
Dear Mr.. Davenport: Replying to
your letter of October /, 1912, you are
advised that the Office of Commits
sioner Wright advised me that about
1900 of the Cherokee newborn deeds
have been approvedyand are now be-
ing delivered and the remainder are
in process of approval by the Depart
ment or final preparation as rapidly as
their force can handle them.
The rolls showing payments due the
restricted class of new-borns has al
ready been approved and have today
telegraphed for the first installment
of the money which will be deposited
to their individual credit as soon as
received. The payment to the unre-
stricted class will be made direct to
them by the Office of Commissioner
Wright as soon as the roll is approved,
which is now pending in Washington.

istrations has not met these response
bilities. Therefore these men, the
great mass of the nations voting
power are not prone to give the re-
publican party another chance just
because it is the republican party.
These men are not going to give their
rights into the hands of party of
which no one. knows anything except
that its leader is a former president
who failed to accomplish in two terms
the things he is pretending to advo-
cate now, although the same ques-
tions existed then and he had the
chance to do things if he desired.
Then there is but one place for the
workers of the nation to throw their
strength and that is to the democratic
party. Illinois has thousands of work
ers in its mines, factories and on its
farms, and from investigation, close
association and peronal contact, that
is the way the workers of this state
are going to vote and that means Will
