Depends on Administration.

A local dealer this morning Stated
that in his opinion relief for Chicka-
sha depended on the orders of Or.
Harry Garfield, federal fuel adminls-
TRAITOR, as to the distribution of pro-
duction.
Il have no direct advice from the
operators yet today but it is my
opinion that possibly the administra-
tion will order that the prairie dis
tricts will be given the preference in
distribution over THE wooded dis
tricts," said the local coal man. In
this case, Chickasha will probably
not get coal in normal quantities for
some time. In the event, however,
shat administration sees fit to let
the distribution be uniform over the
country, Chickasha and Grady county
should be getting coal regularly in
side of two weeks if the miners go
back to work Immediately. ! think

the administrators are make known"

The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1919-12-11

The opinion of J. w. Conner, city
fuel administrator, was that the peo-
pie OF Chickasha should not at this
time depend on getting relief by the
coal route because of the many pos
sibiHties that could enter into the
proposition.
my advice would be to continue
the cutting of wood and to depend
on that for fuel instead of waiting to
get coal" said Mr. Conner There
are a great many possibilities that
can enter into the situation. I am
advised that MANY of the unattached
miners have left the mining vicinity
That is, that they have drifted to the
cotton patch and into other lines Of
activity. If they have done this, 1t
will take some considerable time for
the mines to get back to normal
working force. On the other hand,
there are the volunteer miners. II
they stay on the job, it will help tae
situation. Whether or not they Will
do this, no one can tell at this time.
If the railroads keep their trains Off
as suspended now. the situation will
be helped and if they put them back
on, it will take Just that much long
er to get THE supply up to the point
where it will meet the demand"
May Release Coal
One coal dealer this morning adj
vanced the idea that the railroads
would be more inclined now Eo re-
lease quantities of coal than hereto
fore.
He pointed out that the roads,
knowing the strike was coming had
seized many cars of coal and had It
in storage, but expressed the opinion
that if the roads know that they can
get all the coal they want, when they
awnt it, they will be less inclined to
seize the coal and will therefore de-
liver it to its destination.

Complaints that a number OF the

BLACK DIAMOND
IS CLOSED DOWN

brought to production stage is re-
ported by ]. p Clough, who arrived
here Monday. Mr.. Clough and asso-
ciates own the Black Diamond man
ganese mine, located twenty miles
south of Golconda.
Because of demand for manganese
the mine had been located, an open
cut put in, and the vein drifted upon
for distance of 105 feet. Just as a
huge deposit of high grade had been
exposed the bottom dropped out of the
market.
Besides developing the mine, three
fine buildings had been erected on the
estate, with other improvements, in
all representing large investment.
The mine had reached a stage per-
mitting 100 tons of ore daily to be re-
moved when the owners decided last
week TO close it down.
Clough will leave for Paradise Hill,
where he operates the Valley View
group. He says he has encountered

is getting out 1000 sacks for shipment,
half of which is now sacked and the

NEVADA CANTEEN
HIGHLY PRAISED

Five Nevada men, one of them from
Reno, were cared for this week by the
Reno-Sparks Red Cross canteen, and
all expressed great pleasure at the
service given. Thirty wounded men
were cared for last night. Writing
from Germany, where he is with the
army of occupation, Frank Golden of
Reno, formerly member of the Leg
islature, says in letter to Clarence
T. Burton that the fame of the Reno
Sparks canteen has spread to Ger
many. He says:
II found two boys in cafe at Corr
who told me they were served by the
Reno-Sparks canteen and were served
better there than anywhere between
the Coast and New York. They also
told me that they received postcards
there with stamps on them, and at no
other place did they get stamps. Fine
for Nevada!"

canteen this week were ID. Deselite or
