That the United States furnishes an
asylum OF refuge for any and nearly all
is indicated by the reception that Vic
torano Huerta, erstwhile Mexican pro-
visional president and dictator, received
in New York after spending years ex-
lie from Mexico in Spain. Having ad-
mitted Huerta. the United States gov
eminent now finds itself committed to
the policy of watching him lest he COM
NIT an act which would violate the neu-
trality of the United States with re-
speet to Mexico. 1t is an easy protec-
tor which the refugees of all nations find
in the big republic, and they are not at
all ayerse to taking advantage of those
and of the republic itself
if the occasion should offer. Some day
the United States government will awake
to realization that il doesn't pay to
allow easy admission of those who nav
seek temporary safety under the folds
Of the Stars and Stripes to carry out
their individual plans of many and varied
purposes.

FARM LOANS.
Several million dollars are loaned
On land every year in Oklahoma.
Many farmers are making money by
borrowing money and investing in
land or live stock. Loan companies,
! with better opportunities than the
average man to know general condi-
tions, have confidence in the future
of Oklahoma and are not afraid to
make strong loans on land here.
They feel sure that land will advance
in value, and that there is little chance
to lose. For this reason we are in
position to get strong valuation on
land and make the rate and time to
suit the borrower. We have been
loaning money for the last eight years
and represent three OF the best loan
companies doing business in the state.

Tho Old Turnpikes.

The first great American highway,
that between New York and Philadel-
phla, was long known as 1.-The old York
road" Its construction In iii was an
example which led the colonists at
other points along the Atlantic sea-
board to construct similar roads where
there were no water routes. They were
usually built by chartered companies
and were called turnpikes or toll roads.
Pennsylvania, Connecticut and New
Jersey had many roads of the kind.
The first macadam road in America
was built III 1892 between Philadelphia
and Lancaster. In 1911 there were
said to be 1900 miles of chartered turn
pixies in New England and New York.
During the next twenty years the ma.
tional government spent many millions
Of dollars In constructing great high:
ways, but the panic of 1887 and the
building of railroads and canals put an
end to that branch Of government
work.

tentedly, to the amazement of the al.
dience. The dummy answers with a
ready line Of repartee. delivered In
stentorian tones. Nor is that all, for he
turns and twists his head. waves his
arms, kicks up his feet and otherwise
acts In very lifelike manner.
The secret of the dummy's voice Is
the loud speaking telephone and Of his
actions various electro magnets. As
may be guessed, both are operated by
some one off the stage. In order to
produce all the desired effects the dunn

speaking telephone receiver, with the

ward the audience. The receiver Is
connected with a special transmtter
In an anteroom some distance away.
An ordinary operators breast trans.
mitter is also concealed In the body Of
the dummy, so that whatever Is said
by the ventriloquist on the stage Is
transmitted to the operator in the ante

dummy at the proper time.-Argonaut.

Then at last commenced great up

forces raised a huge load. For ages
this went on until the rocks, crumbled,
