BALLGON!NG As A SPORT.
FIourislne Despite the Vogue Of the
FIvina Machine.

Within five or six years baliooning
has found increasing favor in This
country as ii sport. There are many
more i'm Europe, but in the United
States there are now fifty o. sixty
owners OF balloons who own from one
to three balloons apiece. The number
Of owners is increasing despite the
vastly increased popularity Of the
heavier than air flying machine.
ANY man who can afford an auto
mobile can afford a balloon. You can
buy a one man balloon made of linen
and silk, with basket. net and equip
ment of every sort complete. for SEQ.
Such Il balloon may weigh 100 pounds
and dehnted occupies a space OF about
IL by co by 20 inches. 1t can he put
in q trunk, though commonly 1t is
packed for transportation i'll the bas-
ket. a three passenger balloon can be
bought for $500. Balloons mny he had
of any dimension up to outfits intend
ed to carry fifty persons, but the bal
looms commonly sold range from the
one man carrier up to those designed
for eight or ten. Prices depend OH tho
sizes of the balloons and the materials
of which they are made. A double
walled balloon of rubberiZed clotl, de-
signed to carry eight Or ten persons
and with all its equipment complete
costs about $1,000.
You can't walk into balloon manu-
facturers establishment and find new
balloons of all sizes in stock. Balloons
are made only to order. But there are
now so many men engaged in the hal
looming sport and so many balloons in
lse-there are now ten times as many
private as there are professional bal
loonists-that You may find second
hand balloons. A man starting bal
looming is likely to buy a small one.
and then as his interest and eXpe-
rience increase he buys a bigger one,
and if he wants to he can turn in the
old one as part payment for the new
one. One can buy second hand bal
looms with all equipment complete at
prices ranging from S275 up to $500
for two passenger outfits and up to
500 for an eight passenger balloon

Roman, 9

The Reclamation boys came in
from the various camps last Sun
day and took the Roman boys in
to camp to the tune of 10 to 8.
There was a pretty good crowd
out to witness the game, even if
only a few did have advance
knowledge that a game was to
be played.
The weather was ideal and the
score shows that it was an ex-
citing game, and while several
costly errors were made by both
sides it was occasioned more by
reason of having had no prac-
tice this year than from lack of
knowledge of the game.
Earl Wagner was in the box
for Roman and Jack Stottler for
the Reclamation until the sixth
inning when Stottler retired
owing to having overdone his
arm. Turnquist, a new player in
Roman, was behind the bat for
the locals and with a little more
practice will fill the bill very
creditably. He is left handed
and pegs to second like a vet
eran.
Out at the Hillside school last
Sunday they had a good game
also. 1t was between the bach
elors and the school kids, rein
forced by some of the married
men, and victory finally rested
with the bachelors by a score of
8 to Z. 1t is said to have been
an excellent game and another
is scheduled for next Sunday.
Quite a crowd attended this game
but there will be more next time.

Chairman Love and Commissioner
Watson that they are ready to join
me in this investigation and you had
as well prepare to spend most OF
your time this fall and next winter
in the fight The investigation is to
be made with a view of promulgat-
ing an order stating that the price
of oil shall not be raised at any
point in the state without the per
mission of the commission, except
as the price Of crude oil is advanced
upon such ratio to be fixed as the
result of the investigation. Thal
is. if crude oil should be advanced
11c per barrel, how much should
refined on and gasoline be advanc-
ed? If crude oil declines, how much
should the refined decline? If oil is
selling in Kansas at &c per gallon,
why should it not sell in Oklahoma
at &c per gallon? If oil is selling In
Chicago for t0c per gallon why
should it not sell in Oklahoma for
10c per gallon?
Attorneys representing the com
plainants in this case have started
an investigation that is of import
ance to the public. In its real bene-
fetal effect to the public there can
be no comparison between this ana

name just as indicated above. The
ticket in the First district is rather
more confusing than usual from the
fact that there are two Davis run
ming for the same office Frank P
Davis of Enid, and John j. Davis of
Chandler AS shown above the name
John J, Davis will be the third of
that group. And now, just a few
words as to why Lincoln county dem
ocracy are pushing the candidacy of
Hon. John J. Davis First, they real
ize that this was cut out for a re
publican district in the interest of
Bird Mcclure and that three of our
best democrats have already met de-
feat at his hands, not from the fact
that Mcclure was strong, but from
the fact that congress at his diction
had made for him an almost impreg-
nable republican district, but the
friends of John Davis believe that
Ii he secures the nomination at the
primary, on the 9th of August, that
he can carry the election over Bird
Mcclure or any other republican
nominee, There has never been a
time when the democrats of this dis
trict and the progressive voter inde-
pendent of all parties, realize the
of electing a progressive to
the district more than now,
and as Mr.. Davis has a clear record,
and no one for one moment denies
his progressiVeness, and as he has
made good in every position that has
ever been accorded to him, his
friends believe that he is the strong
est man that could be nominated in
he coming primary.

BANKERS
WILL ASK
NEW LAW
STATE BANKERS WILL
HOLD MEETING JULY BOTH
TO FRAME MEASURE

For discussion of the desired
changes in the banking laws
the state, and also looking TO a
change of the provisions of the
guaranty law with regard to the
assessment of banks to support the
guaranty law with regard to the
state bankers section of the Oklat
homa Bankers association has been
called for Oklahoma City on July
80. The meeting will be held at
the Lee7Huckins hotel at 10 o'clock.
One of the propositions to be
discussed is that regarding the one
fifth of one percent of the deposits
of state banks for the support of the
guaranty fund. The law at present
provides not only for the one fifth
Of one per cent of the deposits, but
also, banks can be further assessed
in case the guaranty fund is in
sufficient to take care OF
a bank failure.
1t is the opinion of bankers that
they should not be taxed more than
the one-fifth ofsthe one per cent for
the guaranty fund, AID that if at
any, time there is a deficit in the
fund this shoulV be made up by a
deficit appropriation by the state j
This would relieve the banks of pay
ing more at any time than the rer,t
qured one fifth of one per cent.
Another change is desired in the
law from the viewpoint of the
bank commissioner. This is in the
disposition Of applications for char
ters for new banks. AS it is now
the bank commissioner must APP
prove. or disapprove the applications
of persons applying for charter,
making it appear more as personal
matter than otherwise. The com
missioner wants this changed so
that he may approve or disapprove |
such application on the ground of |
whether the community WIZ supl |
port bank or not. Other powers |
are sought for the bank commission |
er which are not now given.

of Oklahoma politics when the head
of the ticket meant many thousands
of votes. That was at a time when
the voters were entirely unacquaint-

a decided advantage over his oppon-
