Mr.. Cahoon is a very genial man,
and said last night that he loves this
portion of the country. For thirty
years he lived in Dallas and he never
gets this close to his former home

when he leaves here he will visit the
cOmpany's plant at Fort Worth and
will make a run TO Dallas to see some
friends. Mr.. Richards will
also make this trip with Mr.. Cahoon
to look over the Texas properties.
Mr.. Richards visited the company's
big plant at Tulsa, and while he is
away from the New York office he
will visit all the properties of the

Oil men are now looking to south

A COMMEMORATE ACT.
Farmer Who Leased Land For Oil
Wants Lease to Stick.

Just plain old common honesty in
dealing with individuals, if adhered to
by every man, would do away with
nearly all court trials and court de-
cisions. A pretty instance of the right
kind of honesty has been revealed
here in a letter from a man and his
wife at Dixie, who heard that some
oil leases We're being invalidated by
court decisions. They at once wrote
to Writ Franklin of the Plains Oil and
Gas company, stating that if the lease
they had executed was not properly
drawn that they wanted to make it
right.
The letter in full is well worthy Of
publication in the oil column, and we
publish it with pleasure.

above, Ex-Governor Cruce was pres
ent and read some figures that have
been pondered over by the taxpayers
since that time, and it may be as
serted that his was the first argu-
ment advanced against the further is
suance Of bonds at this time.
Ex-Governor Cruce stated that he
wished to be a resident OF the city,
but at the rate taxes are mounting
year by year, IT viii soon be impos-

here, and quoted the following fig
lures TO sustain his position.
Ih'Se figures are taken from the
years 1911 and 1915, and show the
percentage Of increase in taxation in
the city during that period:
In l9ll the total tax rate in the
( CITY was 10 mllis. IN 1913 the tota'
rate mad increased to lG mills, an
increase OF so per cent.
In 1911 the rate for salary was
Is mills. In 1918 the rate was 3.S2d,
an increase OF SO per cent
In 1911 the rate Tor lighting pur-
poses was 10 mills. In 1913 1t was
l,lO, mills, an increase OF 10 per
cent
In 1911 the rate on the sinking
FUND was mills. In 1919 1t was S.3',
an increase of lO9 per cent.
The mayor has been quoted as say

policemen to do this duty, but 1t IS
learned that the police 1und Is only
sufficient to maintain the department

OF the fiscal year. In that event some
OF the patrolmen viii have to be re-
tired. In the face OF this, Che,
liutchins has stated repeatedly that
he is short of men and that he could
not give the city adequate poIice
protection with less than he has at
present, In fact he has SAID that
he was short of men to do the neces-
sary work. Therefore, it is obvious
that in the event this plan was car

the bad weather, and he did not get
to see a very great deal of actual
drilling. When asked as to the OBJ
jet of his trip, Mr. Winston stated
that he would make investments here
if he found anything that promised
a profit. In city real estate he said
he had never been able to make any
money, but he would be willing to
take a chance at an Oil proposition.
