OIL LEGISLATION.

The legislature is wrestling with the
oil problem in Oklanoma The state
Is flooded with oil, the pipe line ca
pacity is inadequate to handle the
production. the market is rendered
poor because OF this lack OF facility
and when men run upon such emer-
gencies they are inclined to fight and
TO say bitter things They lose pa
tience with others in the natural ef-
fort to fix the blame upon others
instead of being willing TO share
portion OF the blame themselves. 1t
is Just as natural for man to seek
10 excuse himself as 1t is for water
TO run downhill That tendency does
not belong to a few men but to all
alike. Happy is the man who can
have patience with others, VINO can
see the situation as it really exists
and can devote his energies to a
solution without mingling PERSONAL
ties into his work.
When men desire to punish others
they are most likely to have their
work torn down, The proposed oil
legislation must be drafted along
reasonable lines so it will be sus-
tanned in the courts or worse
condition will prevail in this state.
The old remedial bill has been in
troduced. and the senator who intro
duced the measure said it was by
request that he did so. 1t would
seem from this remark that the sena-
tor introduced the bill because Others
wanted r introduced, and it might
be taken~to mean tlat he has not put
his heart and soul into the bill to
urge ts passage.
The solution to the oil situation
is to draft law so that any given
pool will be controlled as though !;
were the property OF one man. All
the producers in any pool take their
oil from q common pool, and any
legislation that will give to one man
an opportunity to take more oil from
the pool than another man, size and
production of lease considered will
work a hardship This principle re-
duces oil legislation to a simple
basis. to basis of justice; II elimi-
mates personalities. it eliminates
greed Of producers, and it is fair to
cotton carriers. \ bill drafted along
that line will insure its good stand
ing in the courts, because it has
simple Justice as its basis

Hugo He looked happy, and was as
jolly as ever. He did not have time
for much talking as he was so busy,
but it was evident he was the right
man in the right place, and l was
as glad to see him as he appeared
to be to see me. II seems that Bill
is in for a double header for the
next four years, as it is evident he
is not going to lose interest in his
Hugo paper and expects to burn
the midnight oil TO constantly keep
before his legion OF friends through
his Hugo channel. Naturally, the idea
of the Hugo Husonian without Bill

The question of good roads is one
Of untold Importance. 1t has been
considered from time to time by the
press, but only in a fragmentary way,
and never as it has really merited.
The waste OF time and wear and tear
on wagons. the excessive work Of
horses, the loss OF opportunity to take
advantage OF high markets, and the
cost to keep the roads even in their
present conditioF are appalling to
consider. The manufacturer, merchant
and in fact every class are affected

ume of trade in the state is the com
