What Would It Do to Norman?
John H. Asbury was here from
Ardmore with a partner, endeav-
oring to get him located in a gar-
age. He tried to get the Frank
Boggs new garage but Messrs.
Brockhaus and Jansing have the
first call for it, and Mr. Asbury
failed to get located. In taking
about the prospect for oil in some
of the Cleveland county wells, Mr.
Asbury wanted Mr. Boggs to give
him an option on the garage at
(an advance of $100 per month
rental in thc event oil would be
struck—in other words, would pay
him a good rental in any event,
but if oil was struck, would add
$100 per month to it. This indi-
cates what a boom would come to
Norman in the event we strike it.
THE NON-PARTISAN
LEAGUE MEETING
Mr. H. G. Walch tells the Trans-
cript that the purpose of the meet-
ing of farmers at the court house
on Saturday was not primarily to
organize to fight Ihe $50,000,000
good roads bond proposition, but
to organize a league on a non-par-
tisan basis to place good men in
office—not necessarily farmers,
but good men, competent men,
honest men, of all classes. The
League is not a new party, its idea
being to pick out candidates of
the other parties and endorse
them. If the other parties do not
nominate candidates whom the
League can endorse, then they
reserve the right to nominate their
own.
The meeting on Saturday, Mr.
Walsh says, was attended by some
twenty-five or thirty farmers, and
an organization was affected by
the election of E. R. Garland as
president,, II. G. Walch as secre-
tary and Dick Boeskin as treasur-
er. It is to be known as "The
Non-Partisan League of Cleveland
county." The question as to the
attitude of the League upon the
road bond issue was sprung by
J. W. Houchin, the noted Social-
ist of Moore, and the vote showed
the audience somewhat divided,
but more against than in favor of
the measure. Mr. Walch acknowl-
edged the Socialists largely pre-
dominated in the deliberations, but
declared the League would not b£
controled by them—that the non-
partisan feature would be strictly
adhered to.

It was the opinion of both the
speakers that the prices of build-
ing material would not decrease in
price for several years and that
those who contemplated building
would do well to do it now, and
gave their reasons for that opin-
ion, which were that all information
that came from wholesalers was
to the effect that prices were
increase rather than decrease. Mr.
Owens also stated tha as Chair-
man of the Industrial committee of
the Oklahoma City Chamber of
Commerce he thoroughly investi-
gated the prices of building ma-
terial and is convinced they will
be little cheaper within the next
f v years. Mr. Owens also made
a I ilk on Rotarianism, declaring it
