KEYSTONE BANK
ROBBED AGAIN
Blew Open the Safe and Secured
About $500 in cash-A FIRE.
quent Victim.

Tulsa, Okla, Oct 10.-The hands of
yeggmen were again laid upon the
First State bank of keystone, Okla,
at o'clock yesterday morning, with
telling effect. 1t was the second sue
eessful robbery of that institution
within the past year and half, and
the third attempt.
Yeggmen entered the bank at an
early hour yesterday morning and at
3 o'clock three -glycerine explo-
sions were heard by residents of the
town. The door of the bank safe was
blown open and the robbers making
away with $4,000 in cash, according to
reports that reached Tulsa. A farmer
is said to have seen five men, riding
horseback, away from the scene of
the robbery. They were headed toward
Tulca.
Every window in the bank building
was broken by the explosions and the
interior of the room was badly de-
molished.
On May %, last, the bank was rob-
bed in similar manner and 81 500
taken.
On May s, 1911, Tom Jordan, well
known character, who had lived near
Collinsville prior to that time, rode up
to the bank on horseback, dismounted
and went inside. But news of his at
tempted holdup plan had preceded
him and officers We're concealed in the
bank When Jordan commanded the
cashier to hold up his hands a battle
ensued. during the course of which
Jordan was shot dead.
Numerous robbers and attempted
robberies in small towns surrounding
Tulsa have occurred lately. It is
thought gang of yeggmen are main
tanning headquarters in this city with
the theory in mind. The nitro-glycer-
inc used in the bank explosions is gen
orally stolen from magazines of oil
companies near Tulsa.
Safe in the banks at Krenlin, u
miles north of Enid and at Douglas,
Is miles southeast of Enid, were both
blown early Monday morning, also,

BUSINESS SYSTEM
IN THE CAMPAIGN
(By John Fordham)

Chicago, H., Oct. 8. - The demo
cratic national campaign is being run
ON business principles.
This is statement which at once
challenges proof, particularly in view
of the disclosures brought out during
the past week by the campaign fund
investigating committee of the United
States senate. The testimony before
that committee of Morgan, and the
others, showing that millions of dol
lars We're contributed to and spent by
the republican campaign managers,
was not of a character to impress the
American people with the cleanliness
OF national republican politics.
1t was for the very purpose of prov
ing a clean bill of health for the dem
ocratic campaign committee that at
the very outset of this campaign a
system of accounting was installed in
democratic national headquarters that
would enable anyone at moments no.
tice TO ascertain just what amount of
money was being spent, and for what
purposes 1t was spent. There is no
well established business Office in this
community in which affairs are con
Quoted with greater system or order
than in the democratic headquarters
in New York and Chicago
The Chicago headquarters is in
charge of Secretary Joseph +. Davies
Of the national democratic committee.
Under him there is a corps of assist
ants and clerks numbering about 150
persons. Without attempting to go
too deeply into the details of manage
ment, let it be said that every dollar
that is received and disbursed is ac-
counted for with so many checks and
counterchecks that concealment of the
purpose for which it was spent is inn
possible
Let us say that a head of a depart
ment desires $40 for the uses of his
department He must make out a
requisition on blank provided for the
purpose, stating the purpose of the
requisition, the person TO whom 1t is to
be paid and the amount The head of
the bureau then signs his name. The
requisition then goes to Secretary
Davies, usually with a letter or a yer-
bal statement for his signature. Should
Mr. Davies be out or otherwise engag-
ed. the requisition must be signed by
Irving Shuman. assistant secretary and
office manager From Mr.. Shuman's
office the requisition goes to E, M.
Grossman, assistant treasurer. who o.
KS it and makes out check which
also sets out on its face the purposes
for which it is drawn.
When head of bureau desires to
purchase supplies or printed matter,
the same process is pursued except
that after the requisition has been ap-
proved by Secretary Davies or Mr..
Shuman, and Mr.. Grossman, the
requisition goes to G. F. Stone. the pur-
chasing agent, who will buy whatever
is called for in the requisition through
competitive bids All disbursements
are made by check continuously num-
bered and as has been said setting
forth the purpose for which the money
was paid. This includes salaries of all
persons on the payroll

plete and exhaustive. Continuous

WOODROW WILSON
IS STILL GAINING
WILSON OVERWHELMINGLY IN
LEAD IN HERALD POLL.

New York. Oct. 10.-The second poll
of the New York Herald, which is sup
porting President Taft, shows Cover
nor Woodrow Wilson decidedly in the
lead over Roosevelt and Taft.
The Herald devotes five pages to its
straw votes which were taken in New
York City, New York state, New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Della
ware, Illinois. Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Michigan, South Dakota, Wash
ington. Idaho, Missouri, Nebraska, In
diana, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky,
Wyoming, Kansas and Oklahoma.
The Herald's expert canyassers
have noted 69,O46 votes. OF these Gov
ernod Wilson has received 3O,261,
Roosevelt 2O,74S and Taft 1866.
The net republican loss from 1908
lis 1853. while the democrats show a
net gain of 5,42O, and the socialists a
net gain of 625.
The Third Term candidate takes H.
064 from Taft while Wilson gains
6yl79 votes from the president.
The Herald will publish its third
poll on October 13, and predict that
they will then have enrolled more than
$50, 900 votes.
Democratic leaders have digested
the Heralds poll with care and they
point out that the prediction of the
Roosevelt followers that he would take
from the democratic columns is not
carried out Instead of losing votes
to either Taft or Roosevelt, Wilson
has gained half of the republican votes
that have changed from 1908. If this
percentage should be kept up through
out the country. the democrats would
carry every state n the Union.
The Herald points out that Taft is
gaining strength and that Roosevelt
is running behind The Herald claims
that Taft is gaining, notably in the
New England States. That in the far
west there is swing towards the
president from Roosevelt. The Herald
states:
But even with his apparently in
creased strength, Mr.. Taft still ap-
pears considerably behind. Governor
Wilson's friends say their candidate
cannot be defeated. The Bull Moose
managers, privately expressing no
great hope OF victory for their candi-
date, say that they have already in
sured the defeat of the president.
Straw votes aggregating approx
mately 10000, taken in twenty-nine
states, put Governor Wilson in first
place. They indicate that he is lead
ing in popular support in % states of
the 20. The Bull Moose leads in five
and the president in one, Utah"
The Herald further comments:
In most of the localities the situa-
ton has changed but little since the
Herald table was published last Sun
G3y The democrats are working
shoulder to shoulder and all differ
ences have been buried Grumblers
who were recalcitrant at first have en-
tired the Wilson campaign. On the
other hand, the republicans are not
working as harmoniously as they
should-especially is this true in Mis-
souri,"

present indications will, carry New

BULL MOOSE

] Oklahoma City, Oct. 10.-The Bl

speeches delivered this week in diff

taxes should be made so high TIL
they would provide ample revenue u
the government so that tariff taxi
even for revenue would be unnecj

emphatically the reported deal

Panel of suitable fence for pig lots.

Stretch the woven wire on the post

A fence of this kind can be readily
moved from place to place and set up
without a great deal of labor.

venient type Of fence. The cost of it
makes it almost %prohibitive, however,
