Special Dlapctch to the State Capital.
t. Louis, Mo., June 7.—Ed Mar-
cbant. itf the Oklahoma world's fair'
commission, is a very busy man. He
1b not, howevor, too busy to look after
the filing of clippings from certain !
Oklahoma newspapers, the editors of i
which have seen flt to criticise the ex-1
hlblts and the building which repre-
sent Oklahoma at the world's fair
Merchant Is a newspaper man. and. of
course pays as much attention to roast
as he does to hoquots. Asked as to
the reason why In his Judgment crit-
icism of the exhibits had been offered
he expressed his entire lack of
knowledge, inasmuch as the exhibits,
manner of display, volume, variety,
ornamentation and artistic manner of
presentation In all the four exhibit*
have received the* favorable mention
of eastern newspapers, and of visi-
tors to the different exhibits, and of
superintendent* of other exhibits in-
stalled in the same buildings with
Oklahoma.
Concerning the criticisms Mr. Mar-
chant said:
"The agricultural exhibit covers a
full block In the agricultural palace,
and has been pronounced by residents
of Indiana. Kansas, Montana and Ne-
braska as being in every way superior
to the exhibits of those states Indeed
the greatest compensation to be con-
sidered In the criticisms of Oklahoma
newspapers as to Oklahoma's exhibit
Is derived from the fact that many of
them have held up Kansas. Missouri,
Illinois and Indiana, as being models
of excellence upon which unfavorable
criticism of the Oklahoma exhibit has
been based. Now. the amusing part of
the whole matter is that criticisms
have been offered all the exhibits
named by residents of the states nam-
ed. and Oklahoma's exhibit declared
superior. So it will be seen that It Is
wholly a matter of artistes eye and loy-
alty or disloyalty to state. Oklahoma's
agricultural exhibit does not approach
In elaborateness the exhibits of many
of the states represented In the palace
of agriculture, but In true artistic uX-
fect it is superior to two thirds. Malf?
of "the states named have paid atten-
tion wholly to corn and wheat. One
state on whl<h u a i ;iimfaiPDrtthle
criticism of the Oklahoma exhibit ex-
pended $4.r>,000 in their installation.
Oklahoma's exhibit comprehends a
greater variety of products of the soil
than is contemplated in any other ex-
hibit in the palace of agriculture, and
personal Inspection by one who is un-
prejudiced will demonstrate ihe fact.
HORTICIJl/rrRAl, CRITICISM.
'"The horticultural exhibit has also
been the srtbject of criticism. I know
as a matter of fact that seven out of
ten of all other exhibits In the horti-
cultural building have been subject
to like unfavorable comment by the
newspapers of the states represented.
The Installation of the Oklahoma hor-
li.-ultirral exhibit was delayed because
the exposition company, over the pro-
test of our superintendent of exhibits,
unloaded the horticultural display In
the agricultural buihMng. It remained
there until two days Iwfore the open-
ing of the exposition, and although the
exposition people had been paid to
place it in the horticultural building
In tha first Instance, they were dispos-
ed to endeavor to charge the Oklahoma
commission for the removal of the ex-
hibit from the agricultural building to
th<- horticultural buiVUag, t<> wlilch
It was originally consigned. It took
some time to Impress uj>on the expo-
sition management that Oklahoma
would not pay twice for the perform-
ance of a service for which compen-
sation had alrendy been received by
them. The horticultural exhibit shows
a greater variety of horticultural pro-
ducts than any oilier stats represent-
ed in the horticultural building with
the possible exception of California.

horticultural exhibit is superior to

States is only able to display apples,
while the Oklahoma horticultural ex-
hibit. shows, as I said, a greater va-
riety of horticultural .products, and In
addition thereto a wine exhibit next
to that of California.
IGNORE MINERAL EXHIBIT.
"No criticism haa been offered on
the mineral exhibit, because the Pike
travelers who are now criticising the
Oklahoma exhibits did not know there
wns Installed in the mineral building
one of the finest displays, exploiting
the mineral resources of the territory.
They did not know, or they did not
take to Oklahoma the credit through
themselves, of having completely in-
stalled that exhibit and received 10
per cent in advance upon award for
that complete Installation, before the
opening of the fair. That exhibit not
having been crlLlclsed, nothing furth-
er DMd by said.
EDUCATION SPACE CHANGED.
"Some woozy individual happened to
stumble into the educational building
on his way from the Pike and the
thought occurred to him to inquire if
Oklahoma had an exhibit in the
building. Some Jefferson guard of su-
perior Intel!townee was able to give
him the lnJtijttatlon that Oklahoma
had a apace. They then hunted up the
space and found It littered with shav-
ings. blocks, half completed tables,
scraps of burlap, etc.. and went up in
the air. They did uot look about and
see that every other exhibit in that
aisle was In the same condition. Ok-
lahoma's space originally contemplated
an aisle. TTie plans for the installation
were perfected upon that theory and
with that understanding. Without
notice to the Oklahoma commission
the exposition maagement closed up
•the aisle. It became necessary then,
three or four days before the opening
of the exposition, to again plan for
the Installation upon the conditions
then confronting the commission by
the action, without notice, of the ex-
position people. The Oklahoma educa-
tional exhibit Is now and has been for
several days, completely Installed. It
Is superior to many of the exhibits In
Its aisle, and the equal of any.
WORK OF THE COMMISSION.
"The Oklahoma commission bears
Ihe record here of being the commis-
sion that iota Wrings. Instead of 21
employes, as la the case with at least
one state, to my certain knowledge,
Oklahoma has but five. There are nofje
employed In the Oklahoma building
who do not give full value In the way
of work for every dollar received in
payment. There is nobody employed in
the Oklahoma building upon or for any
other consideration except, an ability
to do the work required. I feel that
much of the criticism is from a misun-
derstanding of affairs as they exist,
and they exist through circumstances
over which the commission had no
control. The commission's whole ap-
propriation for the whole fair period,
with the task before It of absolutely
building from the ground In all de-
partments. was $60,000 The commis-
sion has built, equipped and furnished
a building which superior in all
points to ten buildings representing
older slates. The commission chas
further installed four exhibits, against
which no reasonable unbiased mind can
And aught to criticise. The commis-
sion has had no ^asportation given it
by the railroads. Oklahoma's money
has had.to be expended for freight and
transportation charges, salaries have
been paid, booth construction paid
for, decorating and all other things
attendant upon or pertinent to com-
plete installations in four* exhibit
buildings, and at the close of busi-
ness on May 81. a balance remained In
the hands of the commission to carry
all things through for the fair pe-
riod of $20,728.65 No other state
commission on all these grounds can
show such a record."

BLUES WIN 5 TO 4.
Special Dispatch to the State Capital.
Chickasha, I. T., June 7.—By taking
the last game of tho series from Chick-
asha this afternoon by a score of 6 to
4, the Guthrie Blues again left the bot-
tom In the standing. The game was a
hotly contested one„ and as the result
was In doubt until the end of the last
Inning, the game wns an interesting
one from the standpoint of the specta-
tor. By winning yesterday the Blues
secured two games of the series, and
during the championship season have
won a majority of their games from
Chickasha, taking six of eleven games
played.
Tonight the Guthrie Blues go to Ok-
lahoma City and the Indians to Enid
for a series of three games each. The
two clubs are so nearly together In the
standing that the games will be watch-
ed with considerable Interest.

Attorneys Flynn and Ames were In
the city yesterday, the former the guest
of Governor Ferguson and the latter
as one of the bourd of examiners for
the bar association. While here it is
said that they consulted as attorneys
for Capitol NatifHiud receiver with
United States Attorney Horace Speed
regarding the affairs of the bank. It is
generally understood that the United
States attorney is looking Into the
case very thoroughly, and the Impres-
sion here is that he will act wisely In
the matter. It is thought that an ef-
fort will be made tirst to recover as
much its possible as Mr. Speed Is work-
ing most especially In the Interest of
the depositors, and that after the bank's
affairs have been straightened out
criminal action If there are grounds for
any will be brought.

whom were sentenced for horse steal-
ing at the last term of court: Alfred
Taylor, one year; Sam Wilson, one

Currie. two years; Martin Bridges
and V. Mashere, one aud a half
years; P. Stewart, two years; Frank
Ibinola, one year and Steven Metzer
one year. Seven more are waiting
trial on similar charges. Horse steal-
ing has been very unprofitable to the
profession in southern Oklahoma the
I last few years. The sheriffs of Cad-
do, Comanche and Kiowa counties
have broken op the gang?, to the
extent that farmers can leave their
barn doors unlocked with perfect

FLOW LINE
Muskogee's Waterworks In

METERED WATER PLANT
One Mile of the Flow Line i
Bolted to the Slate Bottom
of the Arkansas
River
Special Dispatch to tne State Capital.
Muskogee, I. T., June 7.—This city
is now rejoicing In Lie possession of
a complete municipal waterworks
the firgt plant of the sort to be con-
tracted for, equipped and opened in
the Indfan Terrftory. The same week
that Muskogee turned water Into It,
two other Indian Territory towns start-
ed operations on theirs, *but that at
Muskogee Is much larger than the
others. It has the peculiarity of being
the only metered water plant operat-
ed by a municipality In the United
States and the saving from this alone
will amount to considerable every
year.
The Indian Territory towns were
permitted as far back as 1886, to vote
bonds for municipal Improvements,
but few of. them took advantage of
It, as the act of congress was so
hedged about that It was impractica-
ble. Recently, however, congress gave
the cities more latitude, and under
it cities of 2,000 or more were permit-
ted to voto bonds for water works,
sewers and electric llgrts. not to ex-
ceed 10 per cent of their assessed val-
uation. It was under this clause that
Muskogee In 1901. vote*l $175,000 worth
of bonds for water works, with only
six negative votes. The construction
of the works was intrusted to Burns
& McDonell, the engineering firm of
Kansas City, under whoee supervision
the completed plant was turned over
recently.
In building this plant Burns & Mc-
Donnell tackled fearlessly and carried
out successfully a plan on which Kan-
sas City has balked—the submergence
of a flow line. The source of supply
for Muskogee Is the Grand river, a
beautiful stream rising in the Ozarks
and running six miles from Muskogee.
From It to the city regular supply
mains weTe laid, but tho pumping
house, five miles from town on the
west bank of the river Is opposite the
town. In other words the river had
to be crossed, and. more still. It was
necessary to go up the river to the
point where the Grand and Verdigris
flow Into the Arkansas. The problem
was to cross the Arkansas with the
supply coming from tho Grand. Sev-
eral methods were suggested. Joist as
was the case in Kansas City. One was
the use of a tunnel, but It was too
costly. Another was a bridge, but it
was deemed uncertain and unsafe. A
third was the use of a submerged steel
flow line, and a fourth, tho one adopt-
ed, was the submergence of cats iron
flow lines. The young engineers tack-
led this last proposition as the safest
and cheapest, and they have carried
It out
The length of the submerged flow
line for the plant is half a mile, and it
is laid in duplicate. There are two
lines, in other words, and both are
laid on the slate bod of the river. To
It they are fastened by stay rods or
anchors, which are fast in the slate.
Thus there is a total of one mile of
the submerged pipe, all cat Iron and
all firmly tied to the river bed. The
lines can he used alternately, or to-
gether. They give a supply In total for
60.000 people.
Th pumping station is a modern
brick fireproof building, so arranged as
to give economical power, using all
modern machinery. In town, to secure
pressure, is a steel water tower or
standpipe 100 feet high and twenty-flvo
feet 1^ diameter, which was also a
Kansas City production, the work on
It being done by the Midland Bridge
company. This afTords pressure to
throw three streams over the only five
story building in town. Besides this.
Muskogee has a paid fire department
and a steamer for emergencies.
The original plans for the system
contemplate settling basins and fil-
tration. and these will soon be carried
out. Additional bonds will be voted for
them within a few weeks. A complete
sanitary sewerage system is now In
operation.
The capacity of the plant as at pres-
ent operated is for a city of 25.000,
and as all the service is by meter,
each paying for the water used, waste
is eliminated. The city now has 15,-
000 population, and thus the plant is
almost double its present need. It is
built entirely In duplicate, with re-
serve pumps, boilers and engines for
use In case of a breakdown.
But the feature of the whole system
Is the submerged pipe line, and when
one considers Its length, the fact that
It had to be laid on a solid slate bed,
with little silt, and that it was bolted
to this bed. It will be soen that It was
considerable of an engineering feat.
