NEW YORK LETTER

NEW IOrk, July 10.
Wall Street! Yes, it has been bad
but this district looms big in the rec
ord of income tax receipts, having paid
$I,OOO,594 in corporation taxes and
S6,2O6,597 in individual income tax,
while the whole state paid $10,24S,-
998 corporation taxes out of u total of
$3S,817,273 for the whole country, and
$17,379,76S individual income tax out
of total of SAL oil ,402 for all the
United States. 1t is a vivid thumb
nail sketch of New York City to saw
that with one-siXteenth of the popula-
ton of the United States it paws a
third of the income tax.
This concentration of wealth i'm the
metropolis persists in spite of the de-
Capitalization of the banking power of
the country under the Federal Re-
serve system, for the reason that the
nation's trade centers here and cannot
be distributed by act of congress.
For example in the fiscal wear inst
ended, the exports from this port
reached the huge value of S1,153. 1856
764 and the imports were 1920, $50. 1 So
"a total foreign trade Of over two
billions.
OF course it was the enormous pur-
chases of war supplies by the allies
that ran up the figures so that there
was Il net gain of $30S,6S0,975 in ex-
ports though there was loss in every
class of merchandise except munitions
of war and food supplies.
1t is this fact that gives us the con-
tradiction of hard times along with
an unprecedented balance of trade in
favor of this country, for the tenn
porary prosperity has been hogged by
the munition makers and the food
spectators. 1t is this unbalanced
condition of trade that explains why
the ordinary pursuits of peace are
struggling against bankruptcy while
the banks are bullying with gold
Sl29,00O,00O in this city, gain of
$l9,00O,O0O in week. 1t is this one
sidedness of industrial activity that
explains the inability of the great u.
dend.
There are all sorts of uses for a
safe. But the oldest of ali is dis

to lock his safe and next day he found
1t empty. 1t was robbed by an enemy
not by thief He advertised the
fact fearing this enemy proposed to
leave the loot in room in hotel of

Public opinion in this city is kaleid-

ERlFF REMOVES
CRAWFORD TO JAIL

Tulsa, Okla, Oct 1S.-That the
chances for the recovery of Robert
Crawford, who with George Killinger,
is charged with the murder of W. S.
Ward, a lawson merchant, last Sun
day night, are most excellent, was
indicated by his removal from the
Tulsa hospital to a ward in the county
Jail by Sheriff James Woolley. This
means that the county officials in
tend to take no chances upon bring
ing him to trial for the crime.
Immediate action in the matter was
necessitated by rumors that friends
of Ward were preparing to stage a
lynching bee in which Crawford was
scheduled to play very prominent
part Hints had also reached the
sheriff that friends of Crawford
might attempt a rescue just as soon
as warranted by the condition of
the wounded bandit if he were left
in the hospital
Rather than take any chances either
way in the matter Sheriff Woolley
had Crawford placed in absolutely
safe quarters. Killinger is still at
large with a reward of 500 hanging
over his head

CITY MUST
PAY SALARY
Of H. /. SAYRE
SUPREME COURT AFFlRMS THE
DECISION OF JUDGE RUSSELL
AND FORMER ENGINEER WILL
RECEIVE ONE YEARS SALARY.

The case of II. H. Sayre ys. The
City of Ardmore has been affirmed
for the plaintiff by the supreme court
of Oklahoma, and the city will be
compelled to pay him $500, salary
for one year not served by him,
When James A. Cotner was elected
mayor Of the city, II. II. Sayre was
appointed city engineer to succeed
w. c. Dean, resigned. After one
years service in this capacity, a dlf-
ference arose between the city en-
gineer and the mayor, and the latter
threatened to file charges against the
engineer. Nothing was done, how
ever, and he was finally dismissed by
the board of city commissioner for
'insubordination," and was dropped
from the payroll.
Sayre did not relish the idea of
being severed from his monthly war
rant in that manner, and instituted
court proceedings to collect the sal
airy for the balance OF his term The
case was argued in the district court,
and Mr. Sayre received judgment
from the court Judge RusselD for
the amount of his salary. The city
appealed the case to the supreme
court of the state, and recently that
tribunal sustained the decision If
Judge Russell, and now there is moth
ing for the city to do but pay the
fifteen hundred dollars, together with
interest, at six per cent from the
date OF Judge Russells decision.
The contention of the city commits
sioners when Sayre was separated
from his job, was that body which
had the right to hire a man, had the
same right to discharge hlm. But
that decision was made before they
had consulted the city charter very
closely. After a man has been ap-
pointed to a position in the city
which runs by two-year
terms, there is one way, and only
one, by which he may be removed,
and this the commissioners failed to|
follow when they removed Mr.. Sayce.
Specific charges must be filed against
a city official, whether elective or
and the charges sustained
in district court, before a man may
be removed. Either this or the pres
ent city charter will have to undergo
a change. The mere charge of ''insu-
bordination" will not do, as attestel
by the decision of the courts, with
its attendant cost, etc.

BOIL WEEV|L
IS FOUND IN
CARTER co.
COUNTY AND DISTRICT AGRlCUL-
TURAL AGENTS HAVE MADE IN
VESTlGATlONS AND SUBMIT
REPORT.

The boil weevil has been found in
Carter county, and in considerable
numbers, according to a statement OF
District Agricultural Agent Ferguson
and County Agent Scott, who finishe |
making an investigation yesterday.
The uplands, it seems, are not 50
badly affected as the bottoms, yet
from this report, it is evident that
something will have to be done next
season to check the evil.
Following is the report of the dis
trict agent, submitted to State Agent
Bentley, of the State A. & NJ. College
at Saltwater.
"Ardmore, Okla, Oct 16, 1915.
Mr. w. d. Bentley,
saltwater Okla.
Dear Mr.. Bentley:
"On investigation at Ardmore, Ok
lahoma, | find the Mexican cotton boil
weeyil, as reported by Mr.. Scott
some days ago, to be true.
The field investigated is about
three miles east of Ardmore, which
farm is owned by Walter Colbert Of
Ardmore My investigation was con-
fined to about one hundred feet in one
row, with the result that | found fif-
teen forms, out Iof perhaps twenty
five, fallen to the ground, which con-
tanned the weevil in the larva stage.
No particular effort was made to Sc
cure the adults, but with this little,
two adult weevils were found. This
will give you an idea Of
the extent of boil weevil depreciation
within the field this season, and will
also indicate as to the possible dam
age likely to occur from weevils TO
this extent within this field upon next
seasons crop.
Il am enclosing in separate contain
err the forms containing the larva AMI
the two adult weevils, which | am
sending in today's mail.
"Other fields within this section
of the country were examined, with
the result that the weevil was found
which would indicate that the weevil
may be expected in all cotton feds
this section. This section,
too. is an upland section where the
cotton plant is not so rank growth
as it is in the valleys, and it is Mr..
SCOTS opinion that the weevii is
three times as numerous in the valley
fields as upon the upland.
"Of course we can only guess as
to how these weevils are appearing
in such numbers this season, but from
gathered from farmers
through Mr.. Scott, it would indicate
that the weeyil had been constantly
within this section for the past sew
eral seasons, and were multipliei to
this noticeable extent purely by rea-
son of favorable atmospheric condi-
tions. Yours very truly,
"F. F. FERGUSON,
District Agent.

MILITARY TRAINING IN SCHOOLS

Oklahoma City, Oct. 1.-THE plan
of Governor Williams to establish
military training in the public schools

comment from educators and others,
both in this state and abroad, A
letter written by F. A. McCrea, direc-
tor of the department of vocational
education, in the Weatherfnrd Nor
nal School, commends the plan aud
points out a number of good reasons
for having it adopted in the schools
and colleges of Oklahoma. Professor
McCrea writes that he will be glad
to assist in installing the military
training course and cites his o'.n
military training in this connection.
w c. O'Donnell Jr., editor Of Edu-
cational Foundations in New York,
has written to Governor Williams,
asking him to set forth his reasons
for military training in an article for
publication.
Governor Williams has in mind urs-
ing this work before the coming state
meeting of Oklahoma teachers and
may be expected to ask the legislature

probable to provide for training OF
