the examiner.
The first issue of the Weekly Exam-
iner, the successor of the Bartlesville
Magnet, is before you. It is far from
perfect and far short of the standard
which it will endeavor to attain. It
should not, therefore, be taken as a
criterion by which to measure future
issues. Its aim is to become a good,
clean, wholesome weekly newspaper,
fit to enter any home. Owned and
controlled by a joint stock company
composed of a dozen of Bartlesville's
representative business men it is es-
sentially a local institution and its
object will at all times be to advance
the interests of the community and its
individual members along strictly le-
gitimate lines." TV* efforts and influ-
ence will always be enlisted for the
good—for good morals, good govern-
ment and goodcitizenship. It eschews
partisan politics and does not propose
to ally itself with any faction orclique
or becodle a tool for the furtherance
of the schemes of any individual.
Its energies and abilities will be di-
rected for tut building up and ad-
vancment of the best town in the best
country on earth. It may make mis-
takes at times, but such will be errors
of the head rather than of the heart.
It9 desire is to be a truly representa-
tive local paper, reflecting the pro-
gressivness and liberality that per-
meates our citizens and that is rapid-
ly transforming a rawhide, frontier
village into a bustling little city.
night in filling the appointive posi-
tions under the local government.
Mr. Henry Wambold in the city at-
torney's cilice may not become over-
burdened with wealth or practice, but
he is a useful and competent man in
an important place. With an exten-
sive knowledge of law and a long ex-
perience in municipal and corporate
affairs he is capable of rendering the
town invaluable service at this par-
ticular time, and the public will cer-
tainly be the gainer from Mr. \\ am
hold's appoiutment whether he is or
not.
Mr. Charles Dugger was eminently
deserving of reappointment to the of-
fice of city marshal. He has proved
himself the best officer the town ever
had and his enforcement of the law
has been governed by intelligence and
a desire to do the right thing at all
times. He is a refutation of the tne-
ory that a man must necessarily be a
ruffianly blackguard in order to be a
good marshal and to properly dis
charge the duties of the office.
No better man than John Gray
could have heen found for the respon-
sible office of city treasurer. Careful,
prudent and endowed with good judg-
ment and good business qualities he
will certainly prove a trustworthy
and capable official.
The 'egislaturelof Missouri has
made chicken stealing a felony, and
there are slight symptoms of indigua-
tion lurther North. Chickens and
umbrellas have long been looked upon
as belonging to anybody, according
to environment.
OF the $400,000,000,000 of the entire
world the United States has $100,000,-
000, almost twice as much as England
a^id more than twice as much as Ger-
many. This is a case in which the
figures do the talking, saving even the j
api>earance of a breach of iuternatiou-1
al etiquette.
Must Not l'ipe (ins Away.
Upon the advice of the county a
torney, the county commissioners ye
terday granted to the Standard Oil I
company a right of way of the county
for their pipe line, but for oil ou<v. |
The application was for a pipe line I
to carry both oil aud gas. hut the |
proposition to carry gas out of the |
county was very properly refused,
and we hope and believe that the com- i
missioners will continue to stand by
this precedent and refuse right of way
to any line desigued to carry gas out ,
of.the county. lu this case, the ap-
plicants were assured that they would, j
upon apnlicatinn be permitted to pipe j
gas through the line to points within |
the county, but not out of it. Parties
