clifton, Okla, March 31.-Several
of the oil producing towns of Okla
homa, such as Drumright, Shamrock,
clifton, Kiefer, Blackwell and Cush-
ing. bear a close resemblance to Bret
Harte's vivid descriptions in his poetry
about the early days in the California
mining camps. These small cities are
not like Rome, the city that was not
built in a day. 1t is said that on a
Tuesday evening the prairie dogs
played gleefully undisturbed in the
great Oklahoma pasture and timber
land here, and on the next morning
the little animals awoke to find them
selves in the midst of a thriving city.
That was less than two years ago.
clifton is a city of frame buildings.
tents and iron structures. 1t is on the
Oilfields & Santa Fe railway, and has
population of 1900. But in the oil
fields Astounding, several thousand
men, women and children live, and
clifton is the business center for these
people.
Old timer say that clifton has
quieted down remarkably, having out
grown the wildness of an over fam
bouyant youthhood. An old timer, c.
pioneer of clifton, is person who
has lived here between a year and
eighteen months. Time was when
there was no law in clifton, except the
law of the revolver, but a year ago
the mighty hand of legal justice grab
bed clifton With a mighty grab and
cut out a lot of the towns outlawry.
Gun Play Less Frequent.
The town has come to such a stage
of order that only once or twice
week is there gunplay, and fatal
shootings occur on an average of only
once a month. The dance halls have
been limited to eighteen, which is go
ing at pretty rapid pace for 1900 in
habitants The old Oil Exchange,
where gambling ran ariot few
months ago, has been closed, except
for the ball room, where a forty-niner
dance is held every evening.
A forty-niner dance is not like the
functions at Kellam hall in Topeka.
A score or more of girls, dressed in
cowgirl finery, form a troupe of dan
GERS, and the guests, generally work
ers in the oil fields, are charged fifteen
cents a dance. The music is furnished
by a negro orchestra of two pieces and
thus the old glitter and glamour of the
Oil Exchange is making a last feeble
stand against the entertainments of
law and order.
Despite Oilton's reputation for being
the widest town in the Gushing field,
with the possible exception of Sham
rock, the grade school here houses
nearly 1000 pupils and the high school
about 400. The students walk for
miles to school. The majority of oil
workers live on the leases, where they
have built homes for themselves and

families. Because of the good school
system in clifton, the children of the
workmen are given an excellent OPP
portunity for educational advance
ment.
Business on Increase.
Among the larger oil companies
that operate valuable leases at clifton
are the Carter, Balboa, Uncle Sam,
Midcontinent, Schlick and Riverside.
Hundreds of independent producers
own leases of more or less value. The
Oil Fields & Santa Fe railway, a
branch of the Santa Fe system, does a
tremendous tank car business here.
Instead of decreasing, believe the
Oklahoma and Kansas oil output will
increase for years. declared w. K.
Etter, of Arkansas City, Kan, general
superintendent of the Santa Fe, who
was here recently. Il never saw such
an enthusiastic bunch of oil men in
my life than those of the two states. l
am confident that the older fields of
Indiana, Pennsylva mia and West Vir-
ginia never in a single year produced
the quantities of good crude oil that
Kansas and Oklahoma will produce
this year.
