"'LL PAY YOU
YOU PAY HIM
HE'LL PAY ME-

A movement for ''pay-up-week" in
Chickasha has been started by Secre-
tary Arthur Ersland of the Retail
Merchants association, who declares
the plan has proved a great success in
other parts of the county.
Originating in Hume, Mo, only a
few weeks ago, the slogan of iii pay
you, you pay him, he'll pay me-" has
spread throughout the country until
it is being taken advantage of In
every section as method of getting
back toward the cash basis.
OF course, Secretary Efsland says,
the success of the plan depends alto
gether on the amount of backing it
gets from the man who owes the bills.
1t depends also upon the amount Of
confidence each person has in the
other fellows adopting the plan.
IF everyone in town. he said,
would enter into the spirit Of pay
up.week, probably most everyone al
the end of the time would have just
as much money as he had before the
plan was put into effect, there would
be fewer duns to be sent out and
everyone would feel better from 'ow
ing not any man.

BY United Press.
London, July 15.-Practically every
coal miner in south Wales went on
a strike today. openly defying the
threat of the British government to
enforce the new war munitions sot.
AS a result England faces the most
serious internal trouble that has
arisen since the beginning Of the war.
According to the best figures Oh.
tainable 100000 men walked cut.
though their leaders, anticipating An
early settlement of their grievances
by the arbitration plan, counselled
against such action.

day against any striker.
Newport on the Irish sea was thc

opinion is that the strike is NOT Akely

This dispute which jeopardizes the
work of the navy, occupies the public
mind in England above all other mat

BY United Press
Amsterdam, July 15.-According to
dispatches received here, Germany
and Turkey, following Austria's lead,
will protest to the United States
against the sales of ammunition by
American manufacturers to the allies.
Information from Berlin is to the
effect thGt the Teutonic allies want
the United States to know that they
stand together in any controversy that
may result from the issue raised by
Austria though they do not expect that
their protests will alter the policy of
the United States government.
The Austrian protest was conveyed
in note to the American ambassador
at Vienna on June 80. 1t called at
tention to the large shipments Of mu-
nitions to England and her allies while
the Teutonic allies were prevented
from getting such supplies and sug-
gested that such shipments we're con-
trary to neutrality.

While there is not one chance in a thousand that the Democratic party will be busted from power in 1916, President Wilson and Secretary Lane will take no chances on having the railroad construction cut off some where between the coast and the in terior, and for this reason they will begin work at both ends, and then the next administration cannot consistent ly discontinue the construction

TO BEGIN WORK
 EDITH ENDS IF LINE

''In my opinion, there is no doubt that the government will do as much construction work on the railroad in the interior this summer as it will on the coast end" said Marshal L.. T. Erwin to a Fairbanks paper, after returning from an extended visit to the states. "The administration is strong for the development of Alas ka, and you can depend upon it that neither President Wilson or Secretary Lane will let any grass grow under his feet until trains are running from the coast to the interior" he contin- ued.
 While in the states, had several hours talk with Commissioners Riggs and Edes, and they assured me that they would urge President Wilson and Secretary Lane to start construction at both ends. From my talk with these gentlemen and with others in Washington, understand that the $2- 100000 asked by Secretary Lane is to defray the expenses of the permanent surveys. and any statement to the eff feet that it is to be used only for rush. ing the railroad through to the coal fields Is mere conjecture and without
