terday. With the congestion which
has resulted from so many industrial
plants being located north and east
of the two rivers mentioned bv Agent
HCckaday there is little room for oth-
ers which are sure to spring up as a
necessity to the demand which is be-
ing made on production. In okla
homa we have one of the greatest
raw product states in Nthe union ana
there is no state in the country with
greater natural resources. The com p
mercial secretaries of oklahoma, by
binding themselves together and taR-
ing advantage of this fact can do a
great work. and it is for this reason
the convention IS called.
To Print Books.
II is the plan Of secretary Doug
las TO have printed several thousand
books. compiled from :hc data col
,ertcd by the secretaries thrdout the
state. and these books will be the
textbook as It were of the organiHa-
tion. 10 be distributed by the several
ceo rctaries as they deem best.
In this way it is hoped to bring the
natural. and in many cases undevti-
oped resources of oklahoma to the
attentions OF persons seeking to To-
cate and maintain Industrial plants,
hut who find that they are restricted
from that portion Of tho United states
north # the ohio and east of the Mis-
issippi river by this recent ruling OF
the war council.

Oklahoma Mining company is max
ing rapid progress on IL S0O-ton mill
which Is being erected just south OF
the Golden Rod No. 1. The con-
tract calls for 1t to be ready by the

homa lease, consisting of 20 acres,
is located in very good territory. being
near the Goldenrod, the Republic and
the Admiralty and it is thot that Is
will be fully as rich as Its neighbors.
Goldenrod plant No. began opera
tons Saturday after n delay of sew
eral days on account Of the non ar

located lust north of No. ! plant and
is said to be richer than No. l. Only
one shaft has been put down but
several drifts have been driven and
an air shaft has heen opened. Two
other mills of the Goldenrod are near
ing completion, No. 3 and I, but on
account of the severe weather il is
thOt that II will be about thirty days

He commented on the fact that
the city police and county sheriffs
office had decided to work togeth-
err on the enforcement of prohibi-
ton, but that in spite of this, the
number of arrests for intosication
was increasing. The letter init
mated that Petit had made a
deal with the bootleggers of Ia
coma.
1.-The letter is infamous and
libelous," said Petit.
There is bound to be intoyica-
ton in Tacoma, as long as booze
is bought on permits. Twenty
thousand quarts of whisky came in
on permits last year. Is the police
department responsible for this?
Chief Talks, Too.
"The dry squad has done its
best and is continuing to do so. /
believe that the law is better en-
forced in Tacoma today than in
any other city in Washington"
Police Chief Harry Smith issued
the following statement:
II am proud of the records of
my men and the dry squad in the
enforcement of the dry law, and
records in my office and in police
court will speak TO themselves.
We are sending all DRINKS to
court now, instead of releasing
them, as we did in the days before
prohibition, and 1t naturally swells
the number of cases tried there"

been at the head of the pO-
lice and fire department,
Commissioner Petit Wcdncs-
day declared that the entire
cause for an attack by l.. Y.
Stayton, president of the

week of a city patrOlman who
had membership in the Or
ganization.
The policeman, Joseph r. Teale,
member of the dry squad, was dis
charged Tuesday on charges con-
corning his ability as an officer.
He served a formal demand
Wednesday for a written copy of
the charges, and they were FUN

Attorney Leon M. Bailey of

that Teale would demand a civil

notice had been served on Teale
that he was not wanted on the de-
partment longer, and he had been
given an opportunity to resign,
Stayton sent me an insulting let

the police department was wink
ing at vice in Tacoma, and that
was not attempting to keep the
city freed of bootleggers. 1t was

me in retaliation for my discharge

The charges against Teale, as
enumerated by Petit Wednesday,
are that he has used abusive and
obscene language to citizens, that
he beat prisoner after knocking
him to the pavement, that he
him to the pavement that he used
a search warrant to raid hotel
where he hoped to catch man
who was opposed to the interests
of the Citizens league, and that
he was guilty of unseemly conduct

There are plenty of other
charges, some of them bearing
upon the officers eagerness to
