PLACED AT
CITY PLANT

n order to forestan any possible
menaee to the city's water system,
Mayor Coffman stated today that
guards were being placed at the city
water plant, with instructions to ar
rest any party seen on those prem
ises, and 'let them explain later"
The mayor accompanied Water Su-
perintendent Scrimager to the plant
yesterday and the two officials decid-
ed upon the locations Of number
of lights in order that the possible
movements Of anyone around the
plant at night could be detected by
the guards.
There are people in the city, it is
reported to me, who might be more
friendly to another government than
our own" said Mayor Coffman. "In
addition. the I. w. W. activity over
tie country is getting to point
where every public utility and every
industrial plant should be guarded.
1T is better to have some one on the
job with nothing to do than to have
our water plant possibly blown up,
or even worse. poisoned I believe
in safety first and for this reason
have ordered the lights put in at the
plant and guards placed with the in
structions to arrest anyone seen loi-
terihg around any part Of the water
system. This is going to cost the
city possibly 800 a month. But it
lis worth it. and I believe the money
to be we'll spent, In these times, one
cannot be too careful Especially is
this true when the health Of an en-
tire community or city the size Of
Chickasha is concerned Just tell the
people that if they don't want to get
arrested, to stay away from he city
water works. AS I just said, safety
first is my motto"

FIELD FOR
BIG INCOME

7. J Lucodo, formerly Of Chicka-
sha, but now president Of the Lucodo
Oil and Gas company in the Nowata
field, spent yesterday in Chickasha.
In his opinion the people Of chicka-
sha who have interests In the Nova
ia field are to be considered fortu-
nate.
In his conversation, Mr. Lucodo
mentioned the Midas company as
having produced what is considered
there to be one Of the best wells in
the field. "The well flowed FOR two
days and 1t took them ten days to
clean 1t out. They have a dandy
power plant and ] understand they
are going to run It with their own
casing head gas" said Mr.. Lucado.
Continuing Mr. Lucado said, "The
Nowata field is fortunate in that the
casing head gas proposition is very
profitable there. That is to say, tho
field produces the kind Of
gas from which gasoline is made
When the Midas has four or five
wells, they can put in a casing head
gas plant at cost Of about 100000
and practically double their income
without interfering in any way with
the oil production
In the Nowata field, there are 23
casing head gas plants. The cost Of
installing these plants runs all the
way from $4,000 to half million,
according to the number Of units. A
one unit plan will handle about a
quarter of a million cubic feet Of gas.
The production Of gasoline from this
gas varies from three to eight gal
Ions per 1000 cubic feet, according
to the quality Of the gas. The quo
tations on this gasoline at this time
run around 20 cents, so you can
figure for yourself what an enormous
income can be obtained from this
proposition, in addition to the produc-
Ition OF oil Dry gas Is not produc-
tive Of gasoline in quantities that
would pay to install plant. A diff
ferent process is required to get the
gasoline from the dry gas, and It ue-
Iually produces only about two gal
Ions per 1000 cubic feet"

TAXPAYERS
WERE NOT
AFFECTED

Referring to the case IN federal
court. wherein the Rock Island took
a judgment against II N. Mullican
county treasurer. for something over
$4,000. Assistant County Attorney sta
cey said today; "Whiie Mr. Multi
can was ordered to refund to the
railroad something over $4,000 the
county is not out cent This mon
ey was never held by the county, but
was rather held by Mr.. Mullican, who
acted in the natare Of a stakeholder,
until the court order was received
"This amount Of money was paid
by the Rock Island because of errors
In computing the tax levies in vari-
GUS school districts and townships
through which the Rock Island pass
ed. For example, il the levy in Il
given school district was seven and
eght-tenths mills, 1t was erroneous
ly figured at eight mills, flat
"Now with individuals, this small
difference would make very little adj
ditlonal taxes. Not enough possibly to
be noticeable, but with big corpo-
ration whore many thousands Of dol
lars worth Of property is concerned,
the little error in the computation Of
a fractional part OF mill, runs the
up TO a big figure. This,
paid under protest, was held by Mr.
as ] say, acting In the ca
pacity OF a stakeholder. Therefore
the tax payers are not out cent on
