BRIDGE TALK
The elfort to run two cars by each other on the
same track is still among the practical impossibilities
in this country.
The standpatters are wondering what has be-
come of the old fashioned ex-president who went into
dense retirement.
As long as Roosevelt, Dr. Crippen and the state
0/ Oklahoma are in existence, there will be no cause
for the newspapers not being well filled.
The Waters-Pierce Oil Compay has paid a fine
of $75,000 to the state of Oklahoma. The com-
pany's lawyer must be a poor technicality hunter.
THE RIVER has been past fording for the greater
part of the past three weeks, which is a great in-
convenience to the public, and should be a great aid
to the bridge talk, which has been in progress for the
past six years, for the people can see the great need
of having a bridge.
The South Canadian could be bridged for $00,-

the bridge as we were when the Company was organ- ,
ized. Now it appears to us as the best proposition Hkbe s a good one from the Londofl Truth:

Now, let's get together and talk this proposition
over thoroughly, and see if we can't build this bridge,
which by all means we need, and need very badly.
