RUSSIANS IN NEED

Improve Conditions of tbe
Poorer Class.

WILMA, Russia, oct. 25.-Because
the prise OF soaps and such necessi-
ties for washing as starch, borax and
the like has increased beyond the
reach of the poor people, II Is pro-
posed to establish In Wilma number
OF communal laundrtes'' for patron

Just how much the local inhabitants
have been able TO do for themselves,
through tho agency OF twenty-five
"Achieser societies or institutions of

months report of the main organiza-
ton, just issued.
According to this report, the twen-

CLASS F PAVING IS
NOT The BEST KIND
Find 1t Difficult to Put on
Surface That Stands
the Weather.

Glass + paving has fallen into dis
favor so far as the board of city COM
missioncrS are concerned and the fact
that citizens residing in Fostoria
Place pctitioned the city fathers seek
ing pavement of six blocks in that
locality specified class f paving
caused the deferring of definite ac-
ton until the commissioners could
make some efforts to explain to the
residents of Fostoria Place the folly
of such paving.
1t was announced that class + paw
ing is composed of concrete six Inches
il depth with no binder or surfacing
and is the least expensive Of any pav-
ing material yet used in Tulsa. AL
though il was stated that az some
future date surface would be added
to this concrete paving II was shown
that inasmuch as no binder is placed
on the surface of class f. paving at
the time II is laid unsatisfactory re-
suits had resulted when such sur
facing was attempted after the paving
had been installed for several months
Cold, damp weather has proven dis
astrous to this concrete paving. 1t
was said causing II to crack. 1t was
also brought out that to pave these
six blocks with a concrete base topped
with an asphalt surface as used In
other streets in the city would cost
but very little more than class + paw
ing and that should this paving be
laid and the surface applied later the
cost would prove much greater than
to pave the streets with concrete and
asphalt. 1t was asked that the street
he curbed and guttered and paved to
n width of SO feet.
Petitioners win be advised of the
commissioner action and an effort
will be made to have them change
their petition from class + paving. to
one that meets with the approval of
the commissioners.

A REAL LEADER.

The election OF y A Chandler Is
not only great victory to the state
of oklahoma, but II Is to the Repub.
lican party of the nation an event Of
the greatest import
The house is slightly Republican.
Tho election of any one OF the Ro-
publicans successful last Tuesday can
lay claim. of course, to being the worry
one which made tho pivot. But of
all the districts IN the United States
the First congressional district of ok
lahoma has stronger right TO claim
tho glory than any others.
Oklahoma Is "a strong Democratic
state "A part of the solid south. so our
adversarios tell us; and by looking at
the forty thousand majority given Mr..
Wilson We are almost inclined TO be
licNc that-this year only, however,
The First congressional district is
Democratic ami with one single cN-
ccption has always sent a Democrat
10 congress. By all manner Of means
II should hayo gone Democratic this
year. This Is strictly and purely
Democratic year. especially for tho
state Of Oklahoma Tho First con
rressional district should have re-
turned Democratic congressman
Ills year above an other years.
The claim that this district decided
the pivotal point is not without rca-
sCnable and safe ground Whatever
emolumcnts come 10 the Republican
party or to the nation from a slight
Republican majority in the lower
house, the First oklahoma district is
entitled to all the credit
Never In the history of Oklahoma
was there n better campaign conduct
cd 1t is the first time i'm the history
of any congressional district in this
state when there was a real genuine
organization. The First district was
organized from the grassroots -- in
every precinct the congressional COM
mittce had real worker and the
results at the polls showed the fruits
of His labor
There was never a day in the cam
paign that Chairman K w Kcllough
did not have direct touch with work
ers in every county and during the
six weeks campaign he was In direct
