REGULAR MEETING
CITY COUNCIL
SEPTIC TANKS AIRED AGAIN AND
WATER COMM SSlONER Or
DERED TO ACT.

Last night the regular meeting OF
the mayor and city commissioners
was held at the city hall. The prin-
cipal point Of discussion was the sep
tic tanks and what ought to be done
in order to make them do the work
for which they were designed.
]. II. Maxey OF Houston, who built
the tanks, has been In the city for
the past few days and informed the
mayor that the instructions given by
him at the time the tanks were built
had never been carried out and for
that reason the tanks would not work.
Commissioner Fraley went over the
matter carefully with Mr.. Maxey and
stated that he was satisfied that the
tanks would do the work If properly
handled. Mr.. Fraley was instructed
to go ahead under the direction of Mr..
Maxey and carry out his instructions
to the letter and then If the tanks
failed to work, his bondsmen would
be held accountable. Mayor Roberts
was very outspoken in this matter.
He said that in his opinion Mr. Maxey
had received the best of 1t and that
the city was not getting the service
out of the tanks to which 1t was en-
titled. He further stated that it had
been very difficult to get any salts
faction from the builders in the past
hut after the tanks were operated
under the directions of the builder
and then failed to work there would
be no more delays in going after
Maxey or his bondsmen.
The seven ordinances read at the
last meeting of the council were read
and passed to the third reading. The
city engineer was ordered to prepare
a map of the water and sewer sys-
TEN of the city for future reference.
No further business coming before
the council, adjournment was taken.

COTTON STATISTICS AVAILABLE.
Congressman Carter Favors Early
Sale Of Agricultural Bonds.

Washington, D. c., Sept. O.
Through the efforts of the Oklahoma
delegation in congress, the director
OF the bureau of census, has rear
ranged the work of the bureau so as
to permit of the publication in the
county papers of the quantity Of cot
ton reported as ginned in each county
where these statistics can be made
public without disclosing the opera
tions of individual ginners. The local
special agents will be given the priv
ilege of delivering this item of news
to the newspapers in their respect,
i've counties. The order further i'm
presses upon the agents in their dis
tricts the necessity of collecting and
compiling accurate statistics Of the
quantity of cotton ginned and com
plying in every respect with the in
structions they receive from the bu
reau of census.
Congressman Charley Carter is very
insistent that the farming and grazing
part of the segregated mineral land
be sold as soon as possible without
waiting for the appraisement of that
part of said lands that might be avail
able for townsite purposes, and has re
peatedly urged upon the commissioner
of Indian affairs the importance oi
promulgating such a regulation.
The Indian commissioner expresses
his full sympathy with an early sale Of
these lands and it is believed he viii

Tulsa, Okla, Sept, 9.-When
George Fry, an employe OF a con-
struction company building a sanitary
sewer here, stopped working in the
big tunnel long enough to light his
pipe, a terrific explosion Of gasoline,
which in some manner had gotten into
the sewer occurred. Fry was blown
almost out Of the manhole, suffering
serious and possibly fatal burns about
the face and upper body. Frank
Early, a city sewer inspector and an
other laborer, who were standing over
the manhole, were knocked off their
feet and badly burned about the face
and arms. How the gasoline got into
the sewer which had never been
used, is a mystery.

Ardmore, Wednesday Sept 10, 1918

Out in Oregon, the only state in
the Union that outriyals Oklahoma
in the number of elections 1t holds,
there is a movement to initiate a con-
stitutional amendment that will abol-
ish the state legislature and create
in its stead a commission patterned
somewhat after the plan of commits
sion form of government in vogue
in some of the cities of the country.
Such a plan will be favored by
those who are dissatisfied with the
state government 1t will be argued
that the commission will be able 20
lower the tax rate, that more busl-
ness like form of government can be
administered and that politics viii
not so much influence the action OF
the commission as it does the mem
bers of the Legislature. On the other
hand those who feel that each sec
ton of the state should be represent
ed in the law making Dody VIII op-
pose the commission form.
If government is to be organized on
the same plan as corporations are
organized upon, the commission plan
might as we'll begin with the govern
ment. Let the president and his cab
met make the laws of the nation
and then apply the same system
to states. to counties and to munich
palities. The idea will make for
economy, for less delay in legisla-
ton and for effectiveness in admin
istration, but it has tendency to-
ward the destruction of popular gov
ernment as popular government has
been defined and upon the whole
there are some deep questions of gov
ernment involved in the idea.

Deafness Cannon Be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
billing sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
