Railroad rate clerks have begun pre-
pairing blanket rate schedules increas-
ing transportation charges on per
centage basis. These will be presented
to the interstate commerce commission
five days before the proposed effective
dates Rate sheets will be supplemented
BY printed tariffs containing rates for
all territories and on all commodities as
soon asthe main details can be worked
ont. Until this is done. local rail off,c-
ials will compute the new rates and
charges for their territories by adding
20 per cent to existing rates.
An Unusual Method.
While this method would be unusual
rail officials pointed to the suggestion
Of the commission that the higher
charges be put in force ''as early as prac-
ticabe"
Rv putting the increased rates into
effect prior TO September 7. the drain
on the treasury under the guarantee
provisions of the transportation act.
likely will be ended before expiration Of
the governments guarantee of earnings
Officials estimated that by September 1
the guarantee provisions would have cost
the government approximately so9'.-
000,o00
The government has been obliged to
continue the $4,000, 900 monthly rental
payment in effect during federal control
and also deficits not covered by the
rental amount sustained by individual
carriers. Included in these deficits is
that portion of the 5000, 100000 wage
award from May to September /. when
the guarantee expires.
People Pay oue-Third.
This was officially estimated al S2oe.-
100000 Thus the people will pay one
third Of the increased wages for railroad
employees III taxes.
With the amount guaranteed, the car
riers this year and the claims of the
lines fer compensation under their CON
tracts with the railroad administration,
the roads will have cost the government
approximately a billion and half dol
lars since December IS. 1917.
Operation of the roads after Septem-
Der 1. under the new rates, will yield,
according to the experts, an annual re-
turn Of about 81. $50, ,00o,o 900.
They believed the increased freight
revenues would total $1,000 100000 and
the increase in passenger traffic S2s3,-
100000. Their estimates, it was explain
ed, were based on the assumption that
intrastate rates would be increased cor
respondingy.

WOMEN AND THE BALLOT

With the county. state and nation
al elections drawing nearer with each
passing day. and with the women
Of oklahoma entitled to tho ballot
it seems tl.lt the women themselves
should awaken to a more active in
tcrost in the political situation.
The women OF the nation fought
for years to have the right Of fran
chise. They have SHOWN that mas.
much as they are the directing pow
or of the homes, they are the ones
VINO should have voice with the
bono ana sinew' OF the land, IN
the country's government, in the Sc
lection of the men who are to sit
in public places and exercise the pre-
negatives accorded the servants OF
the people
one of the strongest arguments
nut forth by the friends Of national
woman suffrage was that the woman
In politics would be Il cleansing fac
,or. that she would vote only foi
such mon as were morally, as well
as physically ana mentally fit This
Samo argument was usel in OKLA
bona, and those who voted to so
amend the state constitution as to
give Oklahomn's women the right
&c vote, lid so following this line of
argument, this line of thought, this
line of belief.
Recent elections have shown that
in the states where women vote,
theirs has been, taken collectively,
an Independent vote, vote cast for
pure politics and better government,
n vote which has dlsrcgardcd party
lines and eliminated the yellow dog
