EVERY BUSINESS MAN IN THE
CITY is WANTED TO HELP

Every business man in the city who

tunity of enrolling his name before
the end of the week, as the member
ship committee appointed recently is
making an active campaign and it is
question Of which one has secured
the most names in the past two days.
The reports have not been submitted,
but it is known that several new
members have been secured.
There are several matters Of i'm
portance to be considered by the
Chamber of Commerce, and the prin-
cipal one is the question of roads
leading to the city. 1t seems that
the hopes of securing convicts to
work the roads has practically died
out, and it is going to be up to the
Chamber of Commerce, as in the past,
to raise the money to keep the roads

road from this city to the oil field.
Commissioner Taliaferro has been
doing some good work on this road
with the means at his command, but
with the advent of the rainy season,
it is going to be a problem to keep
them passable.
The movement inaugurated by the
mayor and few city and county Of
ficials to secure state cOnvicts for
road building purposes seems to have
fallen by the wayside and the chances
are that none will be secured this
year, if they ever are.
In the meantime, the roads must be
repaired, and it looks as if the work
is going to be checked up tc the Cham
Der of Commerce to do it, and for that
reason every business man in the
city should be member CT that body
and lend all the assistance possible.

Weather May Stop Teutons.

London, Aug. 31.-While the re-
ports from the eastern war theater
embracing the region from Courland
g southeastern Galicia indicate that
tEco, armans and Austrians are still
presE> the Russians hard in COM
bat or 'iously following them in
retreat M ~ observers here are
hoping that the approaching equinoc-
tial season will limit the further for
ward movement of the Ieutons and
force them to be content with the
fruits of their past successes as the
winter season falls upon item.
Both Berlin and Vienna lay empha-
sis on the statement that Field Mar
shal Won Hindenburg's forces along
the Dvina river in Courland have re-
newed their activities, which were
brought, to a sudden halt recently
with the success of the Russians in
holding Riga as menace to Won
1indenburg's rear. In southwestern
Russia in the Brest-Litovsk region,
the Austrians and Germans are chief
" concerned in driving Grand Duke
Nicholas armies further into the
Pripet marshes, evidently with the
purpose of repeating the early sue
cess of the Germans in the Mazurian
lake region of East Prussia.
To the northwest, in the sector
lying only a short distance to the
east of the East Prussian frontier,
Berlin reports an advance of Teutons
and the capture Of the town of Lipsk,
lying lust to the west of the fortress
of Grodno upon which the aims of the
Germans are now evidently centered.
With the opening of the autumn
months, the military observers are
directing attention to the fact that
the Russian equinoctial storms are
due to begin about Sept. 81. They
assert that they are the danger limit
to military operations in the eastern
fields. 1t is recalled by some of these
observers that the autumnal equinox
marked the turning point in the Ma
poleonic campaign. The first warning
was a light snowfall preceding the
equinox but soon afterward heavy
SHOWS fell and with them came dis
aster to Napoleon.
Desperate fighting continues in the
Dardanelles in the vicinity OF the
spot where the British recently made
their landing. The Turkish reports
claim the recapture by the Ottoman
forces of allied trenches, with heavy
allied casualties. These claims, how
ever, have not yet been conceded by
Great Britain.

WHITE WAY IS
MEETING WITH
POPULARFAVOR
VOR OF 1T AND A CONFERENCE
WILL BE HELD WITH THE MAN

The idea of "white way" appeals
to the board of city commissioners,
and the matter is going to receive seri-
Gus attention from them at once. At
the meeting tonight the matter will
be discussed blythe commissioners, and
figures will be secured to determine
the cost of installing such a lighting
system. Mr.. Foster agreed to this
change some time ago when the pres
ent street lighting system was in
stalled, but nothing was ever done
about the matter The city will in
stall the system, if the property own
ers along main street will furnish the
iron standards, which cost approXi-
mately fifty dollars. Three on each
side of the street, to the block, is am
pie to furnish all the light necessary
and make an attractive display as
well. Several of the business men
have been asked for their opinion in
this matter, and all have agreed to
purchase the standards in front of
their property, if the city adopts the
system.

CITY WILL NOT
COLLECT THE
AUTO TAXES
ALTHOUGH SEVERAL CITIES IN
THE STATE ARE COMBATING
THE LAW, ARDMoRE WILL NOT
ENoEAvoR TO COLLECT TAX.

The law governing the tax on auto
mobiles is meeting with some opposi-
tion in several cities of the state, some
municipalities are collecting the tax
as of yore and paying no attention to
the state law passed at the last ses-
sion of the legislature, maintaining
that it is unconstitutional inasmuch as
there is no such thing as placing a
tax on power.
Ardmore is watching the proceed
ings closely to see what the courts will
do about the matter, but local officials
are advising owners to pay the tax
as set forth in the last session laws Of
the state, and are making no effort
to collect any part of the tax.
Several owners in the city have not
taken out the new tags, but the ma
jority have done so.

TRAPP ISSUES REQUisITIoNS

Oklahoma City, Aug. 3O.-Despite
the fact that there is no appropria-
ton for payment by the state of
expenses incurred in bringing pris-
oners back to Oklahoma from other
states under extradition, Lieutenant
Governor Trapp holds that he is not
justified in declining to issue requisi-
tions for such and he has proceeded
to make such requisitiors. In the
past the several counties have been
paying these costs and presumably
they will continue to do so for the
most part, although the law contem-
