 STILL MYSTERY

There were no developments in the FalstOn case yesterday.
 All day long searching parties were engaged in different sections of the county going over ground again and again in the hope that some trace of Kenneth C. Falston might lead to dis cOvery of the body.
 Ben Falston, brother of the man who so mysteriously dropped from view just a week ago. continues to search with the authorities, refusing to give mp until he has definite word that his brother is dead or alive.
 Yesterday accompanied by Mike Srathey and Ivan McCan. he went over the Glendale district. while in an- other direction Sheriff w. H. Wilky and Deputy Sheriff E. J. Warren con- ducted their investigation. Constable Roy Morrell secured the country north of ScOttsdale. The constable headed an Indian posse, after being granted permission to use the Indians in serv- ice by the agent at the Sacton reser- yation.
 Today the Buckeye valley will be fine tooth combed for the missing man.

 Smiths broad lands. With them she took dinner and
 warned her hands. Next toward Hanover Neck Dan turned

 lived for years. With the Kftchels she supped, when
 homeward turned. While above her the stars like Ian

 stockings done. 1 On Rockaway river, so bright and

OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS.
National Tax Convention.


The National Tax convention will be.
held at Atlanta, Ga, November 10 10
16. Going from Tulsa are the follow
ing men who were appointed by the
governor: Frank Orr, of the Sinclair
oil & Gas Co.. Roy Starr, of the Car
ter Oil company; c. r. Plake. OF the
Gypsy and Leo Meyer of the Cosden
company.
State Auditor T.. b. Howard, eXaml-
ner and inspector; Fred Parkinson and
Campbell Russell, of the state corpo-
ration commission, will attend from
Oklahoma City.
The meeting of this organization
is very important, as II is made up OF
men who have practical knowledge
of taxation matters from all the states
In the Union. 1t is especially import
ant at this time because matters per-
tGining to federal taxation will be gone
into thoroly.
Judge Howe, chairman of the Kan
sas tax commission, Is president of the
organization.
1t is certainly to be hoped that the
state Of Oklahoma will not advocate
at this meeting the taxation Of In
comes, especially at time like this
when the country is at war. There
are only Is states out of the As which
have an income tax and most OF these
are repeating same as they come TO
realize that state income tax is
simply usurping the functions of the
national government.

In the Name of Democracy!

Oil, railroads and music! Aye, and
democracy That's big one mans
job, yet not too big apparently TO
tempt the versatile and everreaiy
head of the state corporation COM
mission.
Campbell Russell has been render
ing valuable CD services to the oil
men of the mid-continent field for
some time past and has rendered
valuable aid to this section of the
country generally and caused the oil
men to be particularly grateful.
Now comes Mr.. Russell citing the
proper officials of the Santa Fe to
appear before the corporation COM
mission on this day of our Lord and
show just cause why. in heavens
name, these officials should see fit
to delay a Santa Fe passenger train
for sixty minutes while Madam Melba,
en- route to Oklahoma City, ate a
peaceful luncheon in a Harvey restau-
rant, undisturbed by the demonatra-
tions of an admiring but enthusiastic
throng.
They (the officials) woulSn't do It
for Smith. Brown or Jones, by gum
so why should they do 1t for Melba!
Oh. democracy! What sins are com.
mitted in thy name!
