NEW HIGHWAY
THROUGH M|LBURN
STATE CoMMISS WILL Of
FlCIALLY ACCEPT THE ROAD
FRIDAY.

Continuous agitation on the part ol
the highway department of the state
is producing results in Oklahoma. In
almost every section of the state
road work is being done. In some
instances bonds are being voted, but
in most cases the people of the
towns and the farmers along the
highways are contributing money
and time and these roads are being
built without saddling any debts
upon the townships or counties. Dun
can and Comanche have recently
done some effective road wark, Cor
uish is laying some sensible plans
which will be executed, Berwyn town
shin has voted bonds to do road
work. The town of Milburn has
made itself famous with its system of
roads ard that city will catch the
cross country automobile traffic, be
sides the farmers have good roads
every day in the year to drive over
in getting to market.
Duncan laid out its road according
to plans from the state department,
Cornish has asked the aid of the state
department in locating its roads. The
Duncan road will be part of the
great highway from Canada TO the
Gulf the Cornish road will in all
probability be made a part of the
great national highway from Will
mington, N. G., to San Francisco. The
Milburn road will be one of the state
highways and will be a part of the
system through Oklahoma of the Can
ada to the Gulf roads.
Berwyn township trustees are anX-
ious to get dollar for dollar for all
they spend and they will in all prob
ability have the state engineer VISIT
them to advise with them in their
road work. Bond money ought to
be spent with the same care that Is
used in spending money gathered
from public subscriptions. These
highways that cross the counties
must be laid out first as to economy
of construction, next cheapness in
maintenance, and next they ought 10,
be laid out so they will meet the
state highways at the county lines.
The state engineer is better equipped
tc do this work than any other en-
sineer in the state or out of It,
Mr.. Suggs of the highway depart
ment will be in Milburn tomorrow to
travel over the new road, which has
lust been finished there. He goes TO
accept it and dedicate it as a state
highway. and it will always remain as
such.

work which has been done by that

PROBLEM OF TAXES
UNDER DISCUSSION
Auditor, Treasurer and Club
Committee Had Meeting
Yesterday.
A $4,000 DELINQUENCY
Several Favor Requiring All
Men to Show Receipts
at Polls.
A $4,000 DELINQUENCY

l.. s. Bowman, county auditor, and
Albert Chamness, county treasurer,
met with the Commercial Club com
mittee on taxation last night and dis
cussed the problem of taxes and tax
collection.
Mr.. Chamness stated that since last
May he had sent out over 5000 notices
taxes to go delinquent. OF these
notices 624 were returned to the
treasurer's office, the persons having
moved, and could not be located
through the post office.
Altogether about $4,000 of taxes are
delinquent. $500 on real estate and
the rest on personal property.
Although taking no definite action
concerning any of the questions dis
cussed the committee considered sew
eraI methods of facilitating the col
lection of taxes. 1t was decided that
it would be good idea for the county
auditor to supply the township trus-
tees and the school officers with list
of the persons whose taxes were de-
linquent, and that the amount be de-
Quoted from the salaries of persons in
their employ.
Several favored requiring all men
to show tax receipts at the polls be-
fore allowing them to vote. Men
fearing to lose their vote would thus
be more prompt in the payment of
their taxes.
1t was suggested that to make notes
and mortgages valid for collection, the
stamp of the county assessor be neces-
sary. This would bring out all notes
and mortgages which are not given in,
and upon which the holders are not
paying taxes.
The committee decided to investi-
gate tax legislation in other states
which has provided an exemption on
a certain amount Of property not to
exceed $3.50. Advocates of this plan
said that it would exempt the per-
sons who held very little property and
were not really able to pay taxes At
the same time it would rob the rich
man of his argument that his neigh
Dor had not paid his taxes, and that
the officials were trying to hold him
up. He would have the benefit of the
same exemption, but it would not mean
as much to him as to THE poor man

ion of the state, and not of the county

officers say that it has not proved
entirely satisfactory.
The committee will continue it's in
vestigations, and will meet again soon
to consider asking for legislation that
it deems would improve present condi-
lions.

COUNSEL FOR TRAW
ARE OPTIMISTIC
While Waiting for Hearing
He Bombards Govern
ment for Aid.
(National News Association

SHERBROOK, Que, Aug. 22.-
While Attorney Shurtleff was in OF
tawa today pleading with the imml-
grafton department of the Dominion
government to turn Harry X. Thaw
loose to so anywhere he pleased,
Thaw sat in the ST. Francis Jail here
bomharding various official circles in
the United States to come to his aid.
Having won a big victory in getting
arguments on his habeas corpus post
poned until next week, Thaw was in
hopeful frame of mind and said
that he thought either the L S. gov
eminent or the government of Penn
sylvania would eventually come to his
aid He charged that he is the victim
of a conspiracy which he hopes soon
to reveal
Thompson Hearing.
The feature of the day in the Thaw
case was the hearing of Educated
Roger" Thompson, the New York
chauffeur, who drove the automobile
in which Thaw fled from the Matte
wan, n Y, asylum for the criminal
insane. Thompson was arrested in the
Superior courtroom here on the
charge of aiding and abetting an I'M
desirable alien to enter the country.
His attorney, Mr.. Shurtleff, was out of
town but he had assurances that an
other one of Thaw's lawyers would
defend him. The penalty for his Of
Tense is a fine of from $50 to $500.
There is no prison penalty attached.
Thompson has been in jail here, be-
ing completely overshadowed by the
interest attaching to Thaw's case.
The position taken by Thompson is
that he cannot be tried until it is def
nitely established that Thaw is an
undesirable alien.

WORLD IS GROWING
BETTER mitchell
Talks to Chautauqua Audi,
ence on "Optimism and
PeSSimiSm."

rs the World Growing Better or
speech made by William Mitchell to-
day at the chautauqua on the subject
"Optomism versus Pessimism."
He discussed the question from ev-
cry standpoint taking first the views
of the pessimist, then optimist, and
concluded his talk by contrasting the
two.
He showed pessimism in it's worst
form, its notifications and its relation
to God and humanity. Greek philoso-
piers and teachers of centuries ago
were pessimists," he declared. Their
works denote it. The cause of pessim-
ism is due to a lack Of faith in God
and humanity at large. There are diff
ferent pessimists in society. The
grumbler, the religious fanatic are on
ly two of these various kinds of pes
simists II

chantment and familiarity breeds in.
difference and lack of appreciation.
The pessimists are unappreciative of
the good in the world and follow not
the doctrine of God.
"The attitude of the optimist to-
ward the world is just opposite tC
that of the pessimist. The optimists
take the mosthopeful view and while
recognizing the existence of the pessi
mists entertain the idea that some dt>
they will be extinct.
1.-THE optimists look forward to the
time when War will be a thing of the
past, when intemperance will be I'M
known and when sin is a horror.
THE best cure for pessimism is tc
look on the bright side of things and
refrain from foreseeing trouble. Look
for the good in everybody and forge
their faults. This may be difficult tc
do but continual practise in this like
everything else leads eventually t
the point you seek.
