lRELAND,s SAFETY.

Under the heading "Ireland's Safe.
ty'' the Weekly Freeman of Dublin
gave vent to its fears over the forma.
ton of the coalition cabinet and the
trend of government affairs, declar.
ing that 1t battles all understanding
Let our readers remember that the
Weekly Freeman has heretofore en-
deavored to stamp out every hint of
an idea that England did not have at
heart the interest of Ireland and the
Irish people. The Dublin Freeman
was among those papers that declared
that the whole nature of the British
Empire changed over night. This pro-
British paper is now face to face with
a set of facts from which there is no
escape and which admit but one con.
clusion.. In attempting to analyze the
new cabinet, 1t is pointed out that no
one Is so innocent as to suppose that
it is more efficient than the Liberal
Home Government which it replaced.
"On the other hand it is undeniably
Inferior" says the Freeman. For the
reshufling has brought nothing to the
cabinet but men who already grossly
mismanaged the South African war,
one of the greatest muddles of mod.
ern times, and has brought men into
the cabinet who went within an ace
of creating civil war in Ireland and
mutiny in the army" Speaking fur.

Balfour, the arch-coercionist, he was
thrown out Of office by his own party.
These are the men who are to
strengthen the hands of Mr.. Asquith
and Mr.. Lloyd George. We shall see
For the present they are devoting
their attention and energy to their old
game of securing the jobs of profit
and patronage for themselves, and
their chums. The result is some ap-
pointments which would shame even
the worst periods of political corrup.
ton. That 1t is a disgrace and a
scandal to have as the two chief Law
Officers of England Carson and F. E..
Smith none but the lawless Orange
faction will venture to deny
When it was announced that the
government Of England was forced to
change its policy in order to hold the
confidence of the country no one sus.
pected, excepting sincere Irishmen
who were not misled by promises, that
England would attempt to scandalize
their supposed Irish friends. The
Orange lodges and Ulster knew that
the life of the aristocracy was at
stake and In consequence made de-.
termined stand against any move on
the part of the Liberals-and they
have won. The Weekly Freeman, as
we'll as the Dundalk Democrat, de.
clare that the incendiary policy OF the
Orangemen had much to do in en-.
couragtng Germany to take the field.

that the Germans are in the field,
what can these men do to drive them
OUT? Az far as Ireland is concerned
the whole situation is summed up by
the Freeman in the declaration that.

With each additional country added
to the conflict, talk of peace breaks
out. Peace societies announce a de-
cision to meet with the same calmness
that a European country decides to
enter the war. Matters have now
come to the point where either side
Is sure of rejecting what the other
side proposes and the rejection of
peace offers by any nation seems to
rest entirely upon which side pro.
poses to talk peace. The strongest
example of the belligerent attitude of
nation was revealed at The Hague
conference, when the women of the
foremost nations interested, namely:
France, Germany, Belgium, and Eng.
land, displayed as much fighting spirit
as the men of their respective nations.
The women ought to reflect the spirit
of the people at home and in this the
spirit makes for continuous warfare
until either side is exhausted. Peace
talk at present seems nothing more
than twaddle.

Rev. Father Mullaly Gives Reason For
Catholic Faith---says Future Contention Is
Not Between Rival Sects But Between
Religion and lrreligion--- Between Catholicism,
and Agnosticism.

That the people of the countries at
war have been forced into the con.
fiict by their rulers is the assertion
heralded throughout the land. But
Greece has dispelled this illusion. A
referendum vote was taken. Greece
remained out of the war until the
people had an opportunity to express
their opinions. They expressed them
selves in favor of war. In this case
the decision of Greece rested upon
the decision of the people, not upon
the king or the ministers. 1t shows
after all that strife and not peace gov
erns the actions of people.

THE battle of the future Is not be.
tween rival camps in religion, but
rather between religion and no re-
ligion at all and that means between
Catholicism and Agnosticism. The
Church that has withstood SO much
and has the Holy Spirit of God within
her will stand triumphant at the end
of time, leading her children unto eter-
nal salvation, which God destined for
man from all eternity. The time
cometh and now is when they who
come to God shall worship in spirit
and in truth II then a man be true
to himself and God he will lift up his
heart and say to Him: oh, God, If
this Church be Thy only representa-
tive among men, teach me, for l want
to know. Show me the way, o Lord,
in which I shall walk, for have lifted
up my soul to Thee. Oh Holy Spirit
of God. take me as Thy disciple.
Guide me. illuminate me. sanctify me.
Bind my hands. that they may do no
evil; blind my eyes, that they may see
it no more: sanctify my heart, that
evil may not dwell within me, be Thou

Facts About Kansas Natural
Company's Fight in the Court of
Two States of Kansas and Missouri

operations were reported TO the court
the receivers were directed to apply
TO the Public Utilities commission OF
Kansas for an order increasing the
rate to be charged consumers for
whom, I'm the main, the principal
service is to be rendered. After more
than a month of incubation, that trib-
unal Matched out a plan or relief to
become operative, however, only
when, and IL, the Missouri authori-
ties should join in the selling price
for gas to consumers as fixed by the
Kansas commission. In brief, the
Kansas commission recommends a
horizontal increase Of three cents per
900 cubic feet at all points where
gas Is now sold at 25 cents, and that
certain provisions be made as 10
leakage. This would mean rs cents
per thousand cubic feet at most Kan
sas points. But in Kansas City, Mo-,
IL would mean 80 cents for the pres
ont rate there is q cents. II is i'm
proba BILE that the Missouri authori-
ties would agree TO such a discrim-
nation, especially as the people OF

ume OF gas delivered at any one city.

In operating the Kansas Natural
Gas company, the receivers in 1914
lost over a million dollars by selling
gas for less than 1t cost to deliver to
it the local distributing companies.
And this was in spite of a much more
economical management than the
company had ever known before.
Judge Flannelly has always felt I'M
der obligation to the consumers and
to the creditors Of the Kansas Natural
Gas company and its stockholders to
keep it a going concern II possible,
serve gas as cheaply as possible, but
at such n rate as would yield suffi-
Client revenue to pay operating eX-
penses, principal and interest on It's
indebtnedness, to extend its pipe lines
to new gas fields, put in necessary
pumping stations, and at the same
time, save something ultimately for
its unfortunate stockholders. II is his
DUTY, as a court Of equity, TO accom-
plish all this II reasonably possible.
Can it be done? II IL cannot, it Is
goodbye to the Kansas Natural Gas

tors and all of its stockholders. If
the situation Is saved, It must be by
prompt action of the court and by ac-
quiesence Of all parties in interest.

with distributing companies compel
the receivers Of Kansas Natural Gas
company TO bear the whole loss.
These contracts were made by the
incompetent officers OF the company
long before receivers were appointed
and since coming into u~ndisputed
possession OF the assets OF the COM
pany. the present receivers have
tried in vain to so modify these CON
tracts az hat loss from leakage would
fall where It rightly belongs, on negli-
gent and incompetent distributors.
The Public Utilities OF Kansas has
evolved in its order a most remark
able solution Of the leakage problem.
10 classifies distributing companies as
follows:
lst. Those companies marketing
annually 10000. 600 cubic feet OF gas
or less.
2nd. Those companies marketing
5000, 600 TO 20, 600, 900 cubic feet.
3rd. Those marketing Oyer 10000
200 cubic feet.
To the first class 80 per cent OF all
gas delivered is allowed them for
leakage; to the second class % per
cent is allowed; and 10 the third 20
per cent is allowed. That If no one
of these distributing companies IL to
pay anything for the percentum OF
gas allowed them as leakage. But
the commission does not stop there,
but says: The percentage Of loss in
dicated above is intended TO be an
average small allowance and. there

the home of Mrs. Wise of Oil City,
who is to entertain Rev. and Mrs. G..
w. Kerr of Tulsa when the pastor
goes there on his vacation. Mr.. and
Mrs. Wise were very much interested
in cur work because Of their close
friendship with Roger Kemp, one OF
Kendall's most active trustees, and
who gave the college the beautiful
girls dOrmatory, Kemp Lodge"
The full report of the financial
campaign for the college is being kept
until the campaign is completed. An
idea Of real definite returns TO Tulsa

Hawley, president of Henry Kendall,
received a check for several hundred
dollars Thursday. to be used in the
library department OF the college.

lBN ONE OLE THEM.N

The six Kendall R~osebuds, who
have been at Chautauqua, n. Y, all
summer, boosting Tulsa and Kendall,
have started for home. The Tulsa
villa was the scene of a merry gath
cring on their last night at the re
sort, persons from all over Chau-
tauqua having gathered there to bid
the girls goodby,
Miss Ada Wright, one of the Rose
buds, has already returned home,
having been called to Wichita, Kan,
by the serious illness of her mother.
The others will be back by Septem-
Der /.
The six Tulsa girls left Tulsa June
2 with a definite and well-outlined
program for a publicity campaign to
put Tulsa, the worlds greatest oil
center, on the map in a way in which
il had never before been presented.
These young ladies were to scatter
sunshine and present Tulsa not only
as the most flourishing commercial
and Industrial center Of the west, but
also as a social and cultured com
munity.
Backed Ivy the good wishes and
cncoura gem ent Of a host of friends
the girls have been gone six weeks.
What They Have Done.
What have they done to benefit
Tulsa?
They have distributed thousands of
copies Of achievements of Tulsa,
an edition published by The Tulsa
World and containing a compilation
of facts such as was never before
gotten up in Tulsa. These papers
were distributed personally on the
wav. At st. Louis copies were placed
in all the leading hotels, in the read
ing and writing rooms of the libraries,
I'm the depot waiting rooms and
through all the Pullmans on trains
leaving the st. LOuis union depot be-
tween the hours of 1880 a. m. and
11.4O D.. m. They were carried
through the trains by the girls, who
were dressed in dark navy blue uni
form suits with white felt hats, with
Kendall hatbands and Tulsa arm
bands. No man could resist listen
ing to these enthusiastic girls.
The "Kendallabrum', the year
hook of Kendall college, was placed
i'm the libraries and the Commercial
cub rooms I'm the cities visited.
The girls were met by the Com
n~ierciaI club entertainment commit
Tee and gave them the greetings from
the Tulsa Chamber OF Commerce.
The girls improved their opportuni-
ties Of UNFOLDING Tulsa's social posi-
ton by accepting graciously and with
dignity all the honors extended them

Never before have we had the OPP
p%ortunitv Of entertaining such an en-

Almost the same program was car
ried out in each city where a stop
was made. In Chicago all the trains
betveen %. m. and 11:45 p. m. were
met and supplied with Tulsa

Copies Of Tulsa Facts found thelr
way into the Marshall Field store;

the Presbyterian church and gained
his endorsement Of the work of Ken
dali college, our Presbyterian school.
Mr.. and Mrs. Westgate Of the Amer
lean oil company took us in their
car to q number Of people whom they
felt would be especially interested in
our college campaign. We were in
vited TO Sunday dinner at their home,
but had just accepted an invitation
to the Bradley home. OF course, we
called at their home, having made
appointments, so as to get best re-
suits in our limited time. We spent
nearly two weeks in Titusville and
Oil City; We were "honored" with
two evening affairs and one after
noon bridge party and were guests
at the combined meeting Of the Titus
vile and P|leasantville Guilds, at the
home of Mrs. f.. Emerson ST. Of III
tusville. Everyone was pleased to
meet the Oklahoma girls and we
were urged to talk about Tulsa and
the success of friends who had left
Pennsylvania for the new oil Coun-
'ey.
Mr.. Stewart Donates.
We talked to Mr.. Stewart one whole
afternoon in his library. He is the
man who carried on the 100000
Bible campaign a few years ago and
who gives $4,000 annually to an
India mission. He was very much
interested in Kendall college work
and gave us a small sum as a starter.
We look forward to him becoming
greatly interested in OklahOma's best
and most active Christian college.
Mr.. w. c. Payne also was very much
interested and gave us a handsome
starter and promised to help Ken
dali much in the future. We met so
many interested people that it would
be difficult to enumerate all Of them.
At Oil city we were the guests OF
Mr.. NJ. c. Lamberton at the Country
club, where Mrs. Wall of Pittsburgh
gave a dancing exhibition. We were
taken on long drives along the AL

outskirts, where we left the populace
