OKLAHOMA NATURAL WANTS
GREATER INCREASE RATES
Believe That II Extensions Are to Be
Made. Will Have to Have More
Money From Consumers.

OKLAHOMA CITY, June 30.-
Whether or not the Oklahoma Nat
ural Gas company builds pipe lines
to other gas fields for the purpose
of securing an increased supply of
gas depends much on developments
of the near future. according to a
representative of the company speak
ing authoritatively. When the corpo-
ration commig ion q few days ago
granted a mip.rnum rate OF 20 cents
a thousand feet for gas. the report
became current that the Oklahoma
Natural was contem plating building
a pipe line to the Healdton field. Ac-
cording to the authority no such plan
was under consideration. The rev
enue derived by the slight increase
would not be enough as II would
cost $1,500,000 to construct a pipe
line to the Healdton field
The order issued by the commits
sion granting the increase affords
only a temporary remedy. Officials
Of the oklahoma Natural declared
at bearings Of the case that no ex-
tension could be made unless a ma
terial increase In rates was granted.
This will he asked when the matter
OF an increase in rates is again taken
up with the commission, which is
expected to be soon. An inventory
of the property of the Oklahoma
Natural Is now being taken. The
valuation of the property will be
used in presenting the application
for increased rates to the commits
sion.
A sufficient supply Of gas in win
ter depends upon the ability of the
company 10 extend its pipe lines to
the supply. It is understood that
the Healdton field is not the only
one the company has its eye upon. It
is possible that Il the company can
secure the funds It will go to the
CeHen or Walters fields, possibly in
addition TO the Healdton district.

Aged Senator From South Carolina
Is Seriously Ill; May Not Re-

HE IS SEVENTY YEARS OLD
Elected Governor In 1890; In Senate
Since 1894; Familiarly Known
as "Pitchfork Ben"
WORK OF HIGHEST IMPORT
AS Member of Naval Committee, HAS
Done Wonderful Service, Cd
mirers Say Powerful Figure.

WASHINGTON, June 30.--Benll'
senator from South Carolina and
chairman of the naval affairs com.
mittee, is seriously i'll at his home
here and his recovery is regarded hl
his physicians as doubtful His left
side is completely paralyzed,a and h,
has been suffering from severe re.
current cerebral hemorrhage sine
last Thursday.
The seriousness OF Senator TIL.
mans condition became known to-
day when his physician, issued this
bulletin:
senator Tillman is now suffer
ing from severe recurrent cere-
bral hemorrhage. There is complete
paralysis OF the left side. The at
tack came on Thursday afternoon at
the senate and has been progressive,
Because of previous attacks and the
age OF the senator, the prognosis is
unfavorable.
Stricken Last Thursday.
Senator Tillman was stricken
with the hemorrhage-the second
he has suffered--at the senate last
Thursday. His condition since has
become worse and he was uncon-
scious almost all OF today
AS chairman of the senate naval
committee, Mr., Tillmans work has
been regarded as of the highest i'm
portance, especially in connection
with the navys art in the war.
Senator Tillman, who is almost II
years old, was elected governor of
South Carolina in 1890 and again
in 1892 and was elected to the Unit
ed states senate in 1894. For more
than generation he has been one
OF the most picturesque and power
ful figures in public and political
life of the south. "Pitchfork Rem"
was the name given him many years
ago-and one he himself did not re-
sent-because of his vociferous |
style OF attack on political foes.
In Political Frays.
During recent years Senator TIL /
mans bitter contest with former |
Governor Blease. a candidate against |
Mr.. Ttllman In the present senator |
lal primaries, has held him In the
heat OF political fray.
A year ago Senator Tillman an
nounced his virtual retirement from
politics, stating he would not be a
candidate for reelection, hut later
he decided to again offer for office
because of the service he might do
his country and his state during the |
war, by reason of his intimate |
knowledge of naval affairs.

INFLUENZA WORSE
THAN HUN BULLETS
Claiming More Victims Than
Battle Fronts of Europe;
Disease Can Be Avoided.

According to carefully compiled
statistics it is an indisputable fact
that the Spanish influenza epidemic
which is now sweeping all parts of
the country is daily claiming far
more victims than German bullets on
the battle fronts of Europe. Although
civil and military authorities have
succeeded in checking the disease in
some localities, it is growing worse
in others and continues to spread at
an alarming rate. That the disease
can be avoided there is no longer any
doubt. According to leading authori-
ties the powers of resistance of the
human system can be so perfected
that it can throw off almost any in
lection, not even excepting Spanish
influenza, which is one of the most
contagious diseases known.
1t is persons who are suffering
from lowered vitality. who are weak
and rundown and who have not the
strength to throw it off who are the
earliest victims. Persons who have
bad colds, who are suffering from
catarrhal troubles. or inflammation of
the mucous membranes are especially
susceptible. as the inflamed mucous
membrane Innings of the nose and
throat are an open door to the germs.
This condition is almost always ac-
companied by a weakened condition
of the system.
If you are suffering from any of
these symptoms, nothing on earth
will build you up and strengthen you
like Tanlac. which contains the most
powerful tonic properties known to
science.
This statement is easily proven nv
the fact that Tanlac is now having the
greatest sale of any system tonic in
the history of medicine. In less than
four years time over Ten Million Bot
ties have been sold and the demand
is constantly increasing. Thousands
are using it daily for the above trou-
bles with the most astonishing and
gratifying results.
Tanlac increases your strength and
weight and creates a good, healthy
appetite for nourishing food. 1t keens
you physically fit and helps eyery
organ OF the body perform its proper
| function in the natural way.
In connection with the Tanlac
| Treatment be sure and keep the
bowels open by taking Tanlac Laxa-
| tive Tablets, samples of which are in.
cluded In every bottle.
