A RELEVANT MATTER.

The Investments OF Mayor Walton In n build
ing and loan association IN oklahoma city have,
.ince his reply 20 Campbell Russclrs inquiry
concerning them. become much more relevant
10 tho campaign than anyone anticipated This
Is true because tho explanation offered falls
lnmentably In explaining anything TO the satls-
faction OF n reasonable human being
Pat Naglc. tho socialist leader and director
in-ohof OF the Walton campaign, Is reported to
have prepared the statement given to the press.
In II he explains that the previous statements put
out by tho Walton supporters, painting their
candidate as man Of the people, poor himself
and therefore in sympathy with tho masses,
were "overdfawn." that the recOnstructioB can
dldate has been worry successful business man
who has substantial Investments and carriea a
good rating in the commercial agencieg re-
ports; that he was for years successful engl-
necr. etc.
The Inference though not the plain state
ment OF fact, being that these monthly pur-
chases OF stock IN the building and Loan oSsocin-
tlon, now totallng approximately 3O0O0--the
by no means mean sum OF $4,000 OF which was
deposit ed Just seven days after tho primary
election was held. were made from the pro-
oeeds OF these "other Investments OF the mayor"
The explanation" IS a fabrication 80 palpably
weak that It adds vastly TO tho importance Of
the whole incident. n is known that Mayor
Walton has no outside investments In the open
from which such "dlvldends' could accrue. II
"a known that some at least OF his engineering
undertakings in this state ended In most
tragic failure in one case at least his firm OF
engineers being fired from the Job which was
a complete failure, No money accrued from
that Job.
But accepting as true that the mayor has
dividend paying interests and sources OF In
come other than his salary as mayor, what Is TO
be said OF tho alleged fact, up to the present
uadlsputed, that each and every one of these
payments for stock in tho loan company were
made in currency7 Does not vast significance
attach to that fact7 we think any unbiased
citizen will answer yes.
For instance, Mayor Newblock OF Tulsa, is
known TO have substantial outside interests,
private sources OF income which would enable
him to accumulate and invest In n loan com
pany. But n It became matter OF established
vestor short time after his induction into Of
flee as mayor, and that monthly he was deposit
ing large sums with said company ALWAYS IN
CURRENCY AND NEVER IN COMMERCIAL
PAPER IN ANY FORM, Is there a man or
woman in this city who would not attach sig-
nitlcance 10 the factf

Florence Contemplates
Own Electric Plant

FLORENCE, Ala, March 81. -
The city of Florence may soon have
a municipality owned light and pow
er plant which will not only furnish
light and power at a reasonable
Price to consumers, but which will
be a source of income to the city.
Friday Afternoon Mayor w. S.

Commissioner B. 3. Garner made a
visit to Lawrenceburg Tenn, where
highly successful, municipality
owned hydro-electric development
has been made.

that they had already placed very

,rs and to all parts of the build

ers and to all parts of the build
ing.
These growers operated last year
at Baldwin, in a. rented packing
house, which was equipped with a
grader made in Portland, Ore, and
the experience Of last year demon
strated the feasibility and necessity
of large central packing houses.
Many Of the growers had packing
houses Of their own which they had
used in former years and before
going into a permanent investment
they agreed to try out a central
feature-one year-with the result
that all were more than satisfied.
Exchange Is Succeeding
This movement of the growers
tributary to Baldwin is in line with
the plans of the Consolidated Apple
Growers Exchange, located at Cor
nelia, and there will be. several Of
these packing houses erected this
year, similar to the one to be built
in Baldwin.
The plan adopted by the Con-
solidated Apple Growers Exchange,
of central packing houses, enables
all the growers to concentrate their
fruit in possibly eight large central
packing houses located III ulLIereIlL

with first-class machinery and they
joined in the organization Of the
Consolidated Apple Growers Elk
change, and in addition to handling
the products of their own orchards,
last year, handled the fruit Of about
twenty additional growers. They
have planned on charging their
plant this year. The Consolidated
Apple Growers Exchange takes en-.
tire charge of the fruit from the
time it reaches the various packing
houses and has absolute control of
the grading, packing and marketing
and have just completed most
successful year. The Consolidated
Apple Growers Exchange not only
markets the fruit for the growers
but buys their supplies at a very
great saving.

MINERS WELL PAID
OPERATORS ASSERT

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Coal
operators who face the prospect Of
strike of their employees April 1, but
who still refuse to enter national
conference with the coal miners
union, are not controlled by mere
madness, but a determination to cure
a deep-seated disorder" George Fl.
Gushing, managing director of the
American Wholesale Coz assccia-
ton, declared today in an address
zefore the Washington City club. .
Federal court indictments which
have charged operators of union
mines with conspiring with the
miners UNION in endeavors to fix
coal prices and damage non-unIon
coal mines were held by Mr.. Gushing
as largely responsible for the I'M
willingness of the coal operators to
confer. Mr.. Gushing declared that
wages must come down in the mines
This was illustrated, he said, by the
amazing fact that under the present
scale a practical miner can earn full
ly $4,000 a year, though the miners
know that they dare not earn all
the scale allows"
"They know that if the public
should realize how much practical
miner may earn" Mr.. Gushing add
ed, "the people would refuse to pay
the price for coal which such a wage
scale fixes. They know, therefore,
that quickly their rate would be cut.
Labor is not striking against the
coal operators, the railroad managers
or. the manufacturer, it is striking
against the nIIblic
y 1.-The public does not know to what
extent the mine payroll has been
padded. 1t does know that it is COM
PEELED to pay Il price for coal against
which it rebels. The coal operator
stands at point where he must
see the cause on one side and the
effect on the other. He has to turn
about and fight. He has decided to
strike at the real cause and he is
going into this wage battle to clean
the mines of the shirkers and the
payroll padders."
Mr.. Cushing asked his audience
to ''let it be a fair fight to a finish"
and to refrain from 'prodding the
government until it steps in"
