here recently by Baylis Steel, post
master of Kansas City and the presi-
dent of the local street railway com
pany. The project as outlined pro-
vides for a letter box on the front
end Of every car. The boxes are to
be placed on the outside Of the cars
and the cars will stop at any block
to receive mail when signaled. The
privilege is to be extended to first
class mail only and no packages will
be received.
It is planned to have receiving
points at which the mail will be col
lected every trip. Letters will be
received between 1880 in the morn
ing and $3.50 at night
Post office officials assert the plan
should prove a success in Kansas
City. It has been tried in severa
other cities and operated advanta
geously according to the local posta
department. Some fear. however, Is
expressed that the system will retart
the car service.

THE MOST EXPENSIVE
ELECTION IN MISSOURI

Topeka, Kansas, oct. 2S.-The gen
eral election in Kansas this year will
be the most expensive in the history
of the state, according to estimates
made in the office of the secretary of
state. For the first time double cleo
tion boards will be used in many
counties and in each of these coun-
ties two sets of ballots will be nee
essary, thus calling for a considera-
BILE increase in expenditures. 1t has
been estimated that the increased
cost for judges and clerks alone in
these counties will approximate s15,-
600. What the expense for extra
printing will be cannot be estimated
because conditions vary in different
counties, it was said:
The law passed by the last state
legislature provides that in every cleo
tion precinct where $50 or more votes
we're cast in the last state election,
double election boards shall be used
and in these precincts two sets of
ballots must be furnished, one for
state and national Officers and an
other for county and township Off
GERS. II was estimated that in 62l
of the 2,i75 voting precincts in the
state the double system would be
used in the November election.
In Shawnee county It has been es
timated that $4,000 ballots will b'
necessary for 10000 voters. This con
dition is said to be typical Of th'
larger counties in the state wher'
most of the G21 larger voting pre-
cincts are located

Leased Area of Oklahoma.

Leased Area of Oklahoma.
In an interesting article in last Sun
days Oklahoman the claim was made
that three-fourths of the state is
leased for oil and gas purposes. This
perhaps is too high an estimate, al
though leasing activity has been ex-
tending out to the extreme western
limits of Oklahoma. Vast sums OF
money have been paid to the farmers
for their leases. The farmers are
the only sure winners in the oil game
and its greatest beneficiaries. How
ever, If such development is to con-
tinue it must be because the period
of hostility through which the state
has passed shall be succeeded by one
of friendly cooperation.
A Common Misunderstanding.
A misunderstanding has existed in
the minds of the people on account OF
the false charge that the oil produc-
ton of Oklahoma is controlled by the
Standard Oil company. This is alb
surd, for only about 20 per cent is
owned by the Standard. Burdens i'm
posed on oil production do not hurt
this organization, but discourage and
injure the independent producers and
the farmers who are our own good
citizens. 1t is true a few men have
made considerable money by produc
ing oil, but two-thirds of them who
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1916-10-29

l have been repeatedly asked, when
visiting Oklahoma City, How is the
oil business?" The probable extension
of development over the central and
western portions of the state, where
heretofore hopes have been vague and
discouraging, is largely responsible
for this vital interest, and believing
that the times are ripe for a better
understanding all around, take the
liberty of making the following state
ments:
In the first place the oil men real
ize that in this state they have been
laboring in a wilderness Of prejudice
and Misunderstanding. The oil men
have been pictured as millionaire tax
dodgers who spend their time in
drunken orgies. A baser SANDER was
never uttered. The men engaged in
this business are our staunchest citi-
zens, home owners, liberal and loyal
to every interest of city and state.
They resent nothing more keenly
than the accusation that they are op'
posed to the public good. They re.
joice, however, that such accusation
made for political effect is falling
short of its mark, because the people
are beginning to realize that they
themselves are shareholders in what
ever profits accrue from the produc
tion of oil.

Memories.

There's a voice now stilled forever
That in sweetness only spoke,
And whispered words of courage
With a faith that never broke"
On the stroke of midnight, october
9. 1916. the spirit of Minta, beloved
wife of b. A. Holloway, started on
its long unknown flight back to God
who first inspired It with life and
light. To remain at rest meath the
mercy seat until the last great day
the morn of the resurrection when
with all that glorious uncountable
throng It will shine forth with the
most radiating countenance.
Pure, loving and loyal and even in
sickness and sorrow calm, serene
and hopeful-she possessed the quail
ities that are conducive TO inspire
trust and a desire to do the will OF
her Savior in the hearts Of all who
come in contact with her. A more
dutiful and encouraging wife. more
self.sacriflcing. loving mother. a more
devoted, faithful friend can never be
found.
We sometimes wonder why God
with his all-superior knowledge should

and will be entitled to protection
from the federal government in the
event of a strike or any disaster, ac-
cording to the belief expressed by
some officials.
At a late hour last night Manager
Putnam OF the Ardmore Traction
company had not decided whether he
would install such service on local
cars, but had the matter under ad-
visement.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1916-10-29

deduct per cent. which they claim is
to cover dirt and foreign substance
in the oil, etc. We think this is an
unjust charge, but we have to stand
| it gracefully. If the pipe line becomes
|congested and we are obliged TO store
our oil the tax assessor piles upon us
another double tax. The taxing power
is not through with US yet, for along
comes the federal government and
taxes our gross income, cracks down
on us a corporate tax and reaches in
and takes another handful out Of our
estate. Is it any wonder that many
of the boys pack their tents and hike
away to states that still recognize they
ought to be allowed to hold out at
least a meal ticket for themselves and
their families?
Oil for Generations to Come.
It has been stated that the oil pro
duction is only temporary. This is
made by persons who know nothing
Iabout the business. Pennsylvania has
been producing oil for over half a
century. Kansas. although oil was
discovered about twenty-five years ago
is now producing more oil than ever
before, and Oklahoma formations are
better and more promising than in
those states. This state will be pro-
ducing a lot of oil when every inhab-
liant now living is beneath the sod.
The rapidity and progress made will
depend upon the spirit and treatment
accorded those who have the sports
manship to take the cnance. Why not
boost the game along? Nothing helps
so many and nothing puts new life
and energy in a community like the
discovery and development of oil. This
lis true because so much is expended
on the laborers, the teamsters. ma
chinists, merchants. supply men, law
Iyers, bankers and business men.
Cleanest Money Made.
Oil development puts smile on
every ones face, for It hurts no one,
but benefits all. Why not let the oil
man go over and drill a well in the
next county without so heavy penaliz'
ing him If he succeeds in getting oil
in making everyone else around him
happy? The Standard Oil company
can stand your gaff because it can
raise the price to the consumer, or
bear down a little harder on us pro
ducers, but the so per cent OF US who
are Oklahomans and want to boost
the game along ask the fair-minded
citizens of this great undeveloped
state to join in helping to drive out
ignorance, prejudice and unfairness
} and those who seek to spread the
} seeds of SANDER class hatred ant

Benevolent Society Distributes Food.

Kahn and Mrs. Curtis we're happy that
they had been able to supply some
people who might have been hungry
today but for their help.

venture into this hazardous business
fail. You never hear or the boys who
fail. They quietly go 10 work and
keep their story to themselves. Some
winners foolishly vaunt their success
and the impression goes out that il is
an easy game. Not so, the fellow who
stakes his all delving down into the
bowels of the earth to bring forth this
much needed product, which benefits
all mankind merits our sympathy and
respect. Many times a mortgage is
placed on the home to carry on this
work. Those who revile this class Of
men deserve the condemnation of all
fair-minded men.
Contrast Here and Elsewhere.
In Canada and most other foreign
countries a subsidy is actually paid on
oil production. OF course the oil men
here do not ask anything of this kind.
They do believe that they are taxed
too high. The taxes in Oklahoma are
more than double the levies in any
other state. They are willing and
ready at all times to pay reasonable
and fair share. Unjust and excessive
rates tend to drive out oil men just
the same as similar injustice would
tend to eliminate those engaged in any
other industry. When it comes to
the tax matters we are all about the
same.
The crux Of the Matter.
Every oil man knows the 3 per cent
tax upon oil production computed on
the actual sale price of oil is much
greater than the average taxpayer
pays upon other classes of property.
For instance, in your Sunday issue
was another interesting article by
Mr. Cornelius, county clerk of Okla
homa county carefully written and ac'
curate, in which he said:
at is not generally known, perhaps,
that the average cottage or bungalow
in Oklahoma City is assessed conserv'
,atively at about $1,000. A house and
two lots assessed at this sum strikes
fairly good average Of Oklahoma
City homes" The rate, he says, "for
all city, county school district and
state taxes, is s2.75 per hundred" The
oil man coming here to this good city
to buy homes finds these houses and
lots assessed at $1,000 are readily
selling from $4,000 to $4,000. This is
not unusual nor is 1t intended to criti
else Oklahoma county. Real estate
is assessed about the same way al
over Oklahoma, but you see the OF
men are paying taxes twice as great
for they are paying higher rate anC
the rate is fixed upon the actual sale
value. Even this is not all, for We
are hit again by the state income tax

SAVE YOUR HAIR
 AND BEAUTIFYIT WITH'''DANDERINE''
SPEND 25 CENTS! DANDRUFF
 DISAPPEARS AND HAIR STOPS COMING OUT.
TRY THIS, HAIR GETS BEAUTi- FUL, NAVY AND THICK
 IN FEW MOMENTS.

If you care for heavy, hair. that glistens with beauty and is radiant with life; has an incomparable soft ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
 Just one application doubles the beauty of your hair, besides. it imme- diately dissolves every particle of dandruff; you cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair if you have dandruff. This destructive scurf robs the hair of it's lustre, it's strength and it's very life, and if not overcome it produces a feverishness and itching. of the scalp; the hair roots famish, loosen and die; then the hair falls out fast.
 If your hair has been neglected and is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too oily, get a 25-cent bottle of Knowl- toms Danderine at any drug. store CT toilet counter; apply little as direct ed and ten minutes after you will say this was the best investment you ever made.
 We sincerely believe, regardless of everything else advertised, that if you desire soft. lustrous, beautiful hair and lots of it-no dandruff-no itching scalp and no more falling hair-you m7AFt use Knowlton's Danderine. If eVentually-whY not now?

The annual report of Elijah S. Abel, health officer of the town of Bozrah, , shows that there have been only four cases of infectious diseases reported since his office commenced One of d1phtheria, two of infantile paralysis, one of laryngeal or pulmonary tuber- culosis.
 The infantile paralysis caused a lot of unusual work the past summer The schoolhouses and outbuitdfngs are in of complaints of 4nufsances were re- ceived and investigated. All were abated satisfactorily. The water sup ply is good and the milk supply is good: some has been carried to the creamery and some shipped to Provi- dence.
