st. Paul, July Without a dis
cordant note the third party move
ment in Minnesota was given form
and substance and launched at the
Auditorium Tuesday amid enthusi-
asm far out of proportion to the num-
Der of delegates.
I From every congressional district
in the state came delegates actuated
by the same motives thoroughly to
repudiate William H. Taft and I'M
falteringly to support Theodore
Roosevelt. With but four exceptions
the presidential electors consented
to serve as Roosevelt electors, and
their designations, if not already sent
in, will be filed at once.
Four Refused to Serve.
OF the four exceptions only in one
instance does the refusal to serve
carry with it reputation of Roose-
welt and the progressive cause. ].
Rundquist of Grasston stands alone
in his loyalty to Taft.
Second in Importance to the re-
pudiation of Taft by the Progress
sives of the state was the notice Per-
manent Chairman J. F. jacobson,
Madison, served on the delegates
that there would be no third state
| ticket.
The Progressives will not yield to
the Taft organization in this state
any ground gained at the caucuses
last May.
In Minnesota, the movement is
only one to get Roosevelt's name on
the ballot. His supporters will par
ticipate in Republican primaries in
strictly local matters, and as Mr.. ia
cobson said, name a Progressive
state ticket from top to bottom"

called the convention to order by
reading the call. H. T. Halbert start
ed the first demonstration for
Roosevelt when he placed Judge
Purdy's name in nomination for tenn
porary chairman. There was no op-
position to Purdy. Roosevelt's name,
linked with Purdy's, was applauded,
and Purdy was named temporary
chairman by reclamation. Judge
Purdy's address formally launched
the third party movement in Mime
sofa. Despite the fact that this is
the busiest time for the farmers, the
various congressional districts were
represented by more than 500, the
number which the leaders of the
movement had anticipated.
Naturally the Fourth and Fifth
congressional districts were best rep
resented. James A.. Tawney's dis

THE PORTER ROAD
WILL NOW Be BUILT.
New Road Capitalized at $4,000 900
And Authorized to be Bonded
at $4,000 a Mile.

Oklahoma City, May 11--In an ap-
plication to Secretary of State Ben F.
Harrison, Saturday to change the name
Of the company the old Cherryvale.
Oklahoma and Texas railroad lis re-
vived and the announcement is made
by R. Wade of Perry, one of the stock
holders of the road, that money has
been secured for the building of the
lines and construction work will soon
be commenced. 1t is proposed to
change the name of the road from the
Cherryyale, Oklahoma and Texas to
the Kansas, Oklahoma and Southwest
ern Railroad company
The capitalization is also Authorized
at S20,000.000 and additional bonds to
the extent of 100000 mile to build the
line from st. Louis to Galveston and
$4,000 a mile for other contemplated
branches.
Oklahoma will have large share
of the mileage of the proposed road.
It is intended to make one line from
Kansas City through Kansas and into
Oklahoma trayersing the counties OF
Washington, Usage, Pawnee, Noble,
Payne, Garfield, Logan, Kinghsher,
Canadian, Oklahoma, Blaine, Caddo,
Custer, Washita, Kiowa, Comanche,
Tillman, Greer, Beckham, Harmon and
Jackson, a distance of 900 miles, This
will be the main line.
A branch will also be constructed
from Caney, Kansas, to Fayetteville,
Ark, and will traverse the Oklahoma
counties of Washington, Nowata, Craig
Mayes and Delaware, distance OF
800 miles. Another branch will be
started from Pawhuska in Usage coun-
ty to go through Usage, Tulsa, Creek,
Okmulgee, 8 Mcintosh, Hughes and
Pittsburg counties to McAlester,
thence southwest through Pittsburg,
Latimer, Pushmataha and McCurtain
counties to Shreveport, Louisiana, a
distance of 300 miles. Still another

to El Reno, going through Oklahoma
City from which latter place another
branch will be built directly south to
Texas. 1t Is now the intention to
make Houston, Texas, the main sea
port town of the southern terminus of
the line. 1t was originally to place the
important port outlet at Galveston but
it is believed now that Houston, by
virtue of the Panama Canal, will be
the big southern seaport.

Coffeyville Sun, May 10, 1912, may be
of interest to Kansas Citians
Natural gas may be failing in this
locality, but the big wells being
brought in with regularilywould not in-
dicate so. The Kansas Natural yester-
day tested out and attached a meter
to a well recently wrought in by Simp-
son & Mcneil on the Huffman farm,
seven miles southwest of this city. The
weli shows capacity of four million
cubic feet daily. The Kansas Natural
has contracted for and will use one
million cubic feet per day
The gas wells that are now being
sunk seem to have about the same ca
pacity as they did several years ago.
The Lawson we'll recently brought in,
being one of the strongest, ranging
about twenty-five million cubic feet a
day, and yet the gas company says to
the Kansas City consumers, we want
fifty cents per thousand cubic feet to
conserve the gas
The gas company refused to furnish
gas to the Coffeyvile factories for a
less price than they could get in Kan
sas City, but the Etchen Brothers put
down several wells, and they are fur
nishing our factories gas at five cents
per thousand cubic feet, and they tell
us there is large pro6t in selling at
this rate. The city of Coffeyville con
cluded it would not pay five cents for
gas to run its water works plan and
electric light plant and put down wells
of its own. and taking the entire ex-
pense of putting down the wells and
paying royalties upon leases, If we fix
price upon the gas of four-tenths of
a cent per thousand cubic feet, it would
reimburse the city in four years, for
all these expenditures, including oper-
ating expenses and interest upon the
investment, and would leave the plant
clear to the city in four years.
The Kansas. Natural Gas Company
buys large proportion of its gas and
pays from one cent to two and half
cents a thousand cubic feet for the gas
and then proposes to sell it to the con
sumers for fifty cents a thousand cubic
feet GEORGE CAMPBELL.

their distribution to the consumer. On
the other hand, as things now go, our
banking system encourages the flow
of surplus funds to financial centers
where they can be used in speculation,
or in furthering great promotions
(which should be favored? There
can be no doubt as to the answer. The
es- -ential purpose of the National Re-
serve Association is, to separate these
two kinds of operations and to favor
pre-eminently loans to those doing a
strictly commercial business, as op-
posed to speculation and promotions.
AS basis for loans, there is vast diff
ference, as affecting the permanent
prosperity of the country, between
commodities passing from the pro-
ducer to the consumer, and the invest
ment securities in capitalized form of
the organizations producing the COM
modities. Loans supported by the for
mer are short-time and commercial
those supported by the latter are of
longtime and investment character.
The Money Trust is concerned with
the later, the National Reserve Assoc
iation WITH the former. This is the
cruX of the whole matter The more
it is disclosed that the loanable funds
of the country are used to support in
yestment loans, the more reason there
is for the protection of commercial
loans and the enactment of the Nation
al Reserve Association.
Country Not Deceived by Demagogues.
There is no cause for hysteria, nor
for being deceived by the demagogues
who wish to use sensations for poll
tical purposes. The great mass of the
people are honest, sensible and pete
trating, and the sensation-monger is
sure to lose standing sooner or later.
The fact is patent that in large cities
like New York the banking capital is
large because the amount of trade
there is large that vast sum of
transactions is just as legitimate as
those in small town; and that the
great majority of the men in charge
are honorable and upright But that
there are ambitious, merciless, selfish,
money-getters who stop at nothing to
increase their wealth is equally with
out question"
