Reason for Poor
Gas Service Said
to Be Bad Lines

OKLAHOMA CITY Natural gas
companies in Oklahoma in connection
with putting their lines in the best
possible condition for the heavy winter
demand are finding that much Of the
loss Of gas and complaints Of poor
service are due TO the defects in ser
vice pipes located on the properties
OF the gas consumers. "hese lines be-
long TO the property owners and are
not under the control OF the gas compan
les therefore, the company an only
recommend that changes should be
made by the customer that will insure
them better service.
The Oklahoma Natural Gas COM
pany has discovered that in several
instances. electrolysis has eaten out
gas pipes on the premises Of gas users
and caused serious losses. either TO the
gas company or TO the consumer. The
electricity escapes from the trolley line
through the tracks and through the
wet ground and comes in contact with
the gas pipes eating large holes in them
causing a leakage and reduction Of The
gas pressure. The consumer not under
standing the cause of the trouble otter
blames the gas company.

PUBLIC DESIRES
TRAINS RESUMED
Many Protests Made Over
Removal of Passenger
Service on R r.; News
paper Offers Remedy.

Although no official protest has been
filed from this point. there has been
unlimited protest over removal of the
two trains on the Frisco. and it is the
frequent inquiry at the Frisco station
as to when the trains will be re plac-
ed.
Now comes the McCurtain County
Democrat, published at ldabel with
. protest and possible solution Of
the trouble, as il is affecting that part
of the state. Follosing was printed
in last weeks edition:
If the business men, through their
commercial organizations, OF ldabel,
Broken Bow, Haworth, Valliatn. Fort
Towsent, Boswell, Bennington, Boch-
ito, Durant. Madil and Ardmore, will
get together and take the matter up
with the business mems association of
Oklahoma City, it will be possible 10
have a semi decent train service re-
stored on the A and c division of the
Frisco railway.
AS ii now is this section OF the state
is practically isolated, having pas
senger service which is worse than
nothing The service could be forced
through to the west end, as the disiv-
ion from Hugo to Ardmorc Is all with
in the boundary of Oklahoma and is,
therefore, an intra state proposition.
The division from Hugo east, mas
much as il crosses the Arkansas line,
is an inter state proposition and the
matter of adequate train service would
| probably have to be settled by the
| Interstate Commerce commission.
| However il is possible that the com.
merical interests of the towns east
/ OF Hugo, acting in conjunction with
the shippers association of Oklahoma
! City, aided by the attorney general S
office. could force the railway com
pany to establish a service from Hugo
10 Idabel running plug out of Hugo
and giving it an Idabel turn around
or running it out Of Hugo every morn
ing as mixed freight and passenger
train, and running back from Idabe
in the late afternoon.
1t is a cinch that the Frisco will
rot do thing in the matter of giving
our section a decent train sert.ce
until sufficient pressure shall b'
brought to bear. So in our opinion, !
is about time that the business inter
ests Of this section get busy and d
something.
