Catholics VIII Build Church.

A movement has been started
among the Catholics of this locality
to erect church edifce, and We are
informed that the church will be built
in the near future.
This is another movement in the
right direction, and we hope the enter.
prise will meet with success.
This will give Jordan Valley two
churches. and greatly add to the needs
of the community.
The exact location of the building
has not been determined, but G. B
Glover informs us that several loca.
tons have been considered.
One cannot contribute to more
worthy cause than the building o.
churches, as they are necessary ad

morality.-Jordan Valley Express.

|dings or Gid" as he is known here,
is the man who mistook the band wa
gon for the steam roller in the Balti-
more convention and thought by climb
ing aboard while the going was good,
to break into print in the eastern pa

glasses off, he discovered that he had
taken a seat in the wrong vehicle and
tried to get off Just where he will
get off no one knows at present but it
is predicted that the getting off place
will not be in the vicinity of the White
House in case Woodrow Wilson be-
comes the occupant.
Giddings was Wilson delegate to
the convention. In the state conven-

known to the democrats of his state by
delivering strong address which press
dispatches said electrified the crowd :
During his residence in Oklahoma, Gid

Favorable Weather For Crops Helps

New York. July Bradstreets to-
morrow will say
The weeks developments have been
mainly favorable. These include the
arrival of much needed moisture in
parts of the northwest; the regaining
of some earlier ground lost by the
corn and cotton crops; the continu-
ance of exceptional activity in finished
steel outputs; the enlargement of fall
trade in some markets close to the
soil, as for instance, tie northwest and
parts of the SOUTH ard last but not
least, the expansion due to hot weath.
er and midsummer holiday influences,
of demand at retail which has relieved
final distributors shelves and even III
duced some measure of filling in de,

The net result is the growth of a
rather optimistic feeling in general
trade and industrial circles and a dis
position to look more to the bright
side of things.

vinita Has Gold Mine.


Editor Vinita Daily Chieftain:
The citizens of Vinita don't seem to
appreciate the fact that they have
right in their midst a gold mine, that
is waiting for development and as the
proposition is for the benefit of all our
citizens, it will require the eo-opera-
tion of all its citizens.
We have an unlimited supply of
Radium water the same as Claremore
has, at depth Of only hundred feet,
besides we have our own artesian
water and to combine the two we will
have much superior water than that
at Claremore. Now then let our citi-
zens get together and drill a well,
build suitable building at the Elec-
trio park around the swimming pool,
first to cement the entire pool, then
advertise and get patients and ship
the water
! can procure hundreds of testi.
monials of people who have been bene'
fitted by our water and can soon fill
the town with people who will in turn
invest and perhaps locate.
| am willing to donate my services
and do all can to help a deal along
these lines.
The new interurban line from Bar
tlesville to Galena will pass through
vinita and this also will assist vers
materially to help boom our town. The
entire cost will not exceed s50000C
and / will be as one who will place
that amount in stock in proposition
of this kind.
Very truly,

While it has been customary for
railroads to give passes to employees
who have been in continuous service
for a number of years, it remains for

The Frisco having been foremost in

TO GRANDFATHER
ARKANSAS NEGROES

Little Rock, Ark, July 5.-In an EN-
phatic statement issued today, Cover
nor George w Donaghey takes the
position that the grandfather clause
proposed as an amendment to the Ar
kansas constitution, eliminating the
negro vote, should be adopted by all
means.
In explanation of his position Gov
ernor Donaghey declares that the me-
gro, by virtue of racial conditions,
cannot participate in government in
the SOUTH and that the best thing
that can be done for him is to make
this clear to the negro himself.
1--WE have already virtually taken
the ballot from him said the cover
nor, "for he is not now allowed to vote
generally Why not do by law what
we are already doing without law
Besides it will be better for the negro
by taking from him the incentive to
mix with something for which he is
not fitted in his relation to the rest
of the south am positively in favor
of the proposed amendment and trust
it will be adopted at the September
election"

MORE ROADS
ARE NEEDED
President Yoakum of the Frisco Says
This Section Will Require
Mileage.

President B. f. Yoakum of the
Frisco states that if Oklahoma, Texas,
Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana are
to continue to increase in population
during the next twenty years as they
have during the last twenty, thers
would have TO be constructed during
that time total of 27,520 additional
miles of railroads and in addition to
that at least half as much in new see
ond and third tracks, sidings, yards
and terminals This would require a
total cost of more than $1,65O,000, 900,
estimating the main line at $45, 900 the
mile and the other trackage at 100000
the mile In other words an average
of more than $50 100000 per year
would have to be expended during the
period.
In Oklahoma alone, states Mr.
Yoakum, only 100000 out of a total
of 44,324,1 100 acres are in cultivation
Besides this great state has large
coal area and extensive oil lands, all
of which will require m roetrackage.'
Other high railway officials state
that the railroads will not hesitate tc
provide this>~additional milage, if tho
state laws are SO modified as to make
the enlargement of already establish
ed systems feasible They state that
present statutes seem to have beer
designed especially to prevent the en-
largement of large systems and it /.
up to the people to see that they are
so modified as to make such invest
ment attractive. They state that thc
history of railroading in this and othel
countries indicates that the larger the
administrative unit the more economi
cal the operation expenses and tht
more efficiently is traffic carried out

SENATOR OWEN
SPOKE At TULSA

Tulsa, Okla, July 5.--senator Rob
ert i. Owen concluded an eventful day
in Tulsa county tonight when he spoke
to two thousand people in the court
house square. The senator spoke fol-
lowing the band concert aud barbecue
despite very threatening weather and
his speech was greatly appreciated.
Mrs Owen and the senator's daughter
mingled with the crowd during the
band concert. Last month former Gov
ernor Haskell spoke here TO only one
hundred and seventy people and the
contrast between this and the sena-
tors audience indicates that Tulsa
county almost unanimously is for Sen.

the mileage of the railways tends to
increase year by year, an accurate
measure is obtained Of the operating
revenues, operating expenses, and net
operating revenue by ascertaining
what they have amounted 10 for each
mile. 1t may be, for example, as was
the case in March, that while in the
aggregate net operating revenue has
increased, it has decreased when
measured per mile OF line.
Monthly summaries of the revenues
and expenses fthe steam railways
of the United States have been COM
piled by the Bureau of Railway Eco
nomics from the reports filed month
by month by the railways with the
Interstate Commerce Commission, for
the twenty-five months from July, 1910
to April, 1912, the latest month for
which returns are available. Net
operating revenue per mile of line for
the railways as a wheie IN comparison
with the correspondence months of the
previous year decreased in eighteen of
these months, and increased in but
four The decrease per mile of line
per month WAS as great In amount as
$53, and as great in ratio as Is per
cent The greatest increase for any
one of the feur mo1ths showing in
creases was $31. or 141 per cent This
was IN February 1912, and was ex-
ceptional as this month contained one
more day than February, 1911 The
highest average Incorporating revenue
per mile of line for any one month Of
this period was $409, the lowest $203
Seven of the ten months from July,
1911 to April, 1912, show decreases in
net operating revenue per Elile of line
as compared with the corresponding
months of the fiscal year ending June
30, 1911; and eleven of the months
Of the fiscal year which ended June 30.
1911, showed decreases in comparison
with the respective corresponding
months of the fiscal year ending June
80, 1910 It is therefore evident that
the trend of railway net revenue has
been downward for the past two years.
The summary for April, 1912, shows
that net operating revenue was less
than for April, 1911, by $6,O26,4
equivalent per mile of line to $3S, or
I1l.4 per cent This net operating rev.
enue, which in the aggregate amounted
to $56, 1862, ,945, averaged $857 for each
mile of line for each day in April, less
lby Sill than for each day of AprR of
last year This is the gross income
per mile of line per day before any
thing has been taken out for taxes,

tions for betterments or dividends.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. IA
With a meat famine threatening
the entire country and prices
soaring far above former high wa
ter mark, with every indication
that they will go still higher,
Robert N. Weiss, secretary of the
San Francisco Retail Butchers as
|sociation, declares after an ex-
haustive investigation Of the stu
alton, that the only remedy---if
America is to remain a beef eat
ling nation-is to remove the pro-
hibitive tariff of foreign meats and
allow South America, Mexico and
Australian beef to come in free.
Many reasons have been given
by men familiar with the situation
for the high cost of beef, but
Weiss is the first to come forward
with this solution of the problem.
Meat is 20 per cent higher
than it was last year, and it will
go another 20 per cent higher by
midwinter, declared Weiss.
"The situation is serious. Buy
ers who have followed the BUSH
ness for years are alarmed.
"In my estimation-and / have
given the subject deep thought,
the importation of dressed meat
from other countries Is our only
salvation. If congress does not
remove this tariff, which is pro-
