AS the band swung up Chickasha
avenue from the station shattering
the windows with a lively martial air
shops and stores were quickly de-
serted as the occupants formed an
admiring audience along the curb.
Before supper, the band gave a con-
cert consisting of the following num-
bers: Robinson's Grand Entry, Luis
peals Selection, Hawaiian numbers,
Poet and Peasant. Light Cavalry,
Stars and Stripes Forever. They
were served supper at Dillon's cafe

SIX CENT
FARECETS
APPROVAL
Commissioner Russell Allows Rate In
crease; Say Local Road Best Man
aged in Entire State

Patrons of the Chickasha Street
railway company will pay six cent
fares after April l, according to the
ruling of Corporation Commissioner
Campbell Russell given yesterday af
ter hearing ethe evidence submitted
in the hearing at the cou. house in
which the street railway appealed
!. to the commission for a fare in
crease.
In submitting evidence, the railway
officers did not attempt to plead that
the company was not making money,
Thos staIsC thos while there was a
small revenue returned each month,
it was not sufficient to take care of
the bonded indebtedness or the de-
preciation of the property.
Commissioner Russell in making
his statement, declared that the rec.
ords In the office of the commission
showed the Chickasha street railway
company to be the most economical
ly managed company in the state and
that it is the only company of the
smaller towns in the state that is
not Sin the red"
Col. Woodward, president of the
road, stated that the company has
been doing all it could do in the past,
and that 1t would do everything pos
sible in the future. "This latter will
mean some improvements" said Col
Woodward. He stated that since the
road began operation, the cost Of
electricity had increased 25 per cent
and that the company had made
some wage increases.
Commenting on the decision of
Commissioner Russell, Col. Chas f.
Woodward, manager of the street
railway company, said;
"The people as well as the corpo-
ration commission evidently know
that the price of everything has
greatly advanced and realizing that
the costs of our service have neces
sarily increased have recognized the
fairness of our proposed change and
prefer to have the fares increased
than have the service deteriorate or
the continued confidence of the peo
pie of Chickasha in our efforts to
serve them and to have the commits
sion publicly state that our company
is the best and most economically
managed of any company in the
smaller cities of the state and has
shown itself worthy of their conf
dence and assistance"

Washington, March 15.-1'he accel-

discouraging.
AS result of the slowness Of the

and other government agencies are

intention of placing the responsible

prompt action.

After some argument, the council
decided by a vote of four to two to
maintain the guard at the water
works. It was held by some that the
guard was an unnecessary expense
The majority, however, was of the
opinion that in case the water was
poisoned or the plant blown up by
some industrious l. w. w. or agent
