MIGHT HAVE MADE
BETTER USE OF IT
SAYS MONEY SPENT ON PANAMA
CANAL SHOULD HAVE BEEN
SPENT ON ROADS.

Manchester n. H., Nov 16.-The
labor and money spent on the Pana.
ma canal might have been used to
better purpose on the highways of

Patrons of Husbandry, told the dele
gates to the convention of the Grange
IN his annual report today.
The building of the Panama canal
is a national project of which all
Americans are proud, yet the same
amount of labor and money spent on
our highways at home could create
benefits nearer and probably more
important to our own people," he said.
Nr. Wilson also submitted ideas
from the view point of the farmer re-
garding rural credits, saying long
time credit at the lowest possible in.
terest should be available for the
farmer who desired it,
The soLcalled rural credit COM
he continued, that was
sent to Europe had but very few rep
resentatives of agriculture; conse-
quently we can expect but little, if
any benefit from its report.

Besides securing the 1914 session
OF the big good roads assoc cation, the
Tulsa bunch secured several offices
in the organization, places on import
ant committees and had other offices
| rendered to other Oklahomans.
i. d. Mari of Tulsa was elected d.
rector for Oklahoma, and will proba.
bly, be director-general of the Tulsa
convention. w, o. Dickinson of Tulsa,
Sidney Suggs of Ardmore, state high.
way commissioner, and a. c. Trumbo
OF Muskogee were elected vice-presi.
dents Of the association. Eugene Lor-
ton, chairman Of the Tulsa delega-
ticn was made member of the com
mittee on resolutions, and J. Burr Glib
bons, newspaper correspondent was
made chairman of the committee on
publicity.
1t was one Of the most successful
and important meetings Of good roads
enthusiasts and experts ever held in
the United States.
l.. d. Mari, one of the fnanciers
and brilliant speakers of Tulsa, placed |
the town in nomination for the next |
meeting of the Roads Association.
Mr. Suggs seconded the nomination
and was allowed but three minutes in
which to make his speech. He told
the congress he could not tell Of
three blocks in Tulsa in that length
Of time, much less to say something
Of Oklahoma in general. and at the
close of his three minutes he said
there was nothing in the rules to pre-
vent him from singing and, with ac-
'ordeon music he started in to sing
'ongs Of Oklahoma, the spirit of the
occasion swept the audience, a band
If ladies who were Loyalty fighting for
Tulsa Joined in the singing, the piano
vas started and the convention was
'aptured in a good humored manner,
ind 1t never got out of the hands OF
he OklaEOmans any more.
Mr.. Suggs is wild with enthusiasm
yer the kind of men Tulsa sent to .
1t. Louis. With the same wit and
trength he says Tulsa could capture
national political convention or any {
ther great meeting.
The Tulsans scarcely began to fight
ntil a member from Louisiana at e
acked the town of Tulsa, stating c
nat Tulsans had come merely to /
weep the convention and win, and c
ould not be able to make good their
romises. From that time on Okla d
omans were on the floor a greater e
me than the representative of any
her six states, men like A. c. Trum- n
}, and J. Burr Gibbons started the "
'eworks and there was not a dull ei
oment until Tulsa had won. e.
With such enterprise Tulsa has re
zen built into one OF the most mir &C
ulous cities in all the union. and e'
th such enterprise it will continue y"
build.

things for Tulsa and Oklahoma they
