APPEALS TO PRESIDENT
TO SAVE THE OIL FIELDS
Washington May 20. Secretary
Daniels appealed to President Wil-
son Friday to use his Influence to
save the navy's reserves In the Call-
forna oil fields as a vital step In the
campaign for adequate national d3-
fense. Should the bill be favorably report-
ed by the senate public lands commit-
tee to legalize certain entries on
lands withdrawn by President Taft
in 1 !(!) become law Mr. Wilson was
told tht! navy must abandon oil fuel
and return to coal with a conse-
quent loss in steaming radius and
speed to its ships. Navy designers
have advised the secretary that it
will be unsafe to continue construc-
tion of oil burning battle craft until
an adequate reserve supply of fuel
is In sight.
Summary Submitted.
Mr. Daniels submitted a full sum-
mary of the situation nnd the presi-
dent began studying the problem im-
mediately as the bill probably will
ho taken up next week.
In laying the matter before the
president Mr. Daniels repeated state-
ments ho made to tho senate com-
mittee while the bill was under con-
sideration pointing out that a naval
vessel built to burn oil cannot be
converted to a coal burner without
practically rebuilding her nnd that
the navy relied upon this reserve oil
when the policy of oil burning battle-
ships was adopted.
Fuel Cost Great.
"If the navy Is forced to depend
entirely upon a commercial supply of
oil" he said "the find cost or the
Meet is certain to be very great and
it Is possible that In time of great
danger the efficiency of the navy
may be impaired by an inadequate
supply of fuel oil."
Mr. Daniels also explained that
navy designers also said the possi-
bility of attaining a thlrty-flve-knot
speed for the battle cruisers now
being designed ns well as for scout
cruisers and destroyers depends en-
tirely upon oil fuel. With coal fuel
It is doubtful the experts agree
whether more than thirty knots can
be attained by battle cruisers and
even that with a greatly reduced
cruising radius.
Greatly Benefited by Chamberlain's
Liniment.
"I have used Chamberlain's Liniment
for sprains bruises and rheumatic
Dalns. and the great benefit I have re
ceived justifies my recommending it In
the highest terms" writes Mrs. Flor-
ence Sllfe Wabash Ind. If you are
troubled with rheumatic pains you
will certainly be pleased with the
prompt relief which Chamberlain's
Liniment affords. Obtainable everywhere.

ORPET JURY MAY BE COM-
POSED OF WEALTHY MEN
Waukegan 111. May 10. A new ve-
nire of one hundred men to report
Saturday was summoned in the Orpot
case Friday. At the close of Friday's
session of Judge IKinnelly's court o25
veniremen had been examined and
only three remained in the jury box.
Acceptance of the latter was only
tentative.
Will H. Otpet the defendant is ac-
cused of the murder of Marion Lam-
bert a high school student who had
been his sweetheart.
Venire after venire of farmers have
been exhausted and Friday the court
bailiffs said that if the jury was not
completed soon they would have to
invade the estates of wealthy resi-
dents in search of prospective jurors.
When the examination of a new ve-
nire of one hundred men began today
Judge C. II. Donnelly announced that
the literacy test the stumbling block
which has sent many veniremen from
i he box would be less vigorously enforced.
Oklahoma City. May 20 Because
the last session of the Legislature
failed to make a deficiency appropria-
for maintenance of the state prison
at McAlester there are certain em
ployes of that institution whose pay
is deferred. For these the state is is-
suing certificates under the provisions
of the law upon approval of the gov
ernor showing that the claims of such
are approved and that an appropria-
tion will be asked for when the legis-
lature shall meet.
These claims are not state warrants.
There is no authority to issue warrants
when there is no appropriation made
to pay them. Some of the employes
are not able to carry their certificates
and have been driven to the necessity
of discounting them. Governor Wil-
liams has made arrangements with
banks in McAlester and this city that
these certificates shall be discounted
at 8 per cent. The appropriation when
made to pay the deficiency will no
doubt bear interest at the rate of 6
per cent. This will make the cost to
employes but 2 per cent.
Governor Explains Situation
Governor Williams has given this ex-
planation of the situation in reply to
some published criticisms of the situ-
ation in which It Is charged that the
state ought not to be standing for
discounted warrants while there are
millions of dollars of state money in
the banks of the state at small inter-
est rates. The explanation Is that no
stale warrants are being discounted;
that these certificates are not accept-
able by tho state as security for state
deposits in tho banks and that they
are merely claims against thea state
to make apropriations when the legis-
lature shall see fit. Thes ituation was
foreseen while the special session of
the legislature was here last winter
and was called to the attention of the
lawmakers but they failed to make
any appropriation to meet tlie expected
deficiency.
In this connection the outlook for
the state penitentiary to become self-
supporting in the fiscal showing as it
has in reality been to an extent if
the value of tho work done for the
state by the prisoners shall be consid-
ered Is said to be very pood. The ex-
pansion of farming activities under
the present administration shows well
so far. So does the growth of in-
dustries in the penitentiary.
To Install Twine Factory.
The state board of public affairs is
preparing to install the twine factory
that was authorized by the recent leg-
islature nnd they are confident that
it will prove a money maker. The plant
will be in operation in time to make
the supply of twine for Oklahoma
farmers that will be needed for the
1917 wheat harvest.
S. L. Morley secretary of the board
said that the largest twine factory
but two in the United States is that
at the Minnesota state prison nnd hat
it has been a big revenue producer.
"We are intending to make our plant
a money maker too" said he "and
there is no reason at all for believing
other than that the state prisons will
soon be supporting themselves.'
Four counties Bryan Wagoner Pot
tawatomie and Pittsburg are now em-
ploying convict In construction of
good roads and other counties are
making their plans to take advantage
soon of the opportunity thus to secure
labor at a low cost. This will reduce
the expense of the prison.
Southeast Carter County
EDITOR ARDMOREITE:
(A short trip from Ardmore to the
southeast portion of the county this
week revealed many pleasant sights
to your correspondent. In the first
placo the stands of cotton and corn
were exceptionally fine. Another strik-
ing feature was the extent of forage
crops such as oats sorghum kafir
etc. Oats however were not so good
!as I hoped but the late rains will add
a large per cent to their yield.
It Is not crops that struck me bo
favorably as other features. As I rode
along the beautiful flowers seen roses
especially spoke volumes and in lan-
guage that could not be mistaken.
They indicate permanent homes and a
family of refinement which means
good citizenship. The adjunct to these
homes and flowers was a young
growing orchard of choice fruit.
On either side of the road could be
seen large and beautiful gardens of
peas beans cabbage msn potatoes
and onions besides large patches of
sweet potatoes just recently trans-
planted. Still another feature was
the number of Improved poultry that
were in evidence at nearly every house
I passed. This was not all I saw a
number of fine cattle that would be a
credit to our county fair in Septem-
ber. Upon the whole I was amply repaid
for my trip by the beautiful homes I
saw besides being convinced that the
farmers of the southeast portion of
Carter are the most progressive di-
versifiers in the county and upon the
whole Carter County is literally one
of the best agricultural counties in
the state.
Upon inquiry I found a number of
gentlemen who have bought and paid
for their land and who will in the
near future erect substantial and beau-
tiful homes thereon. When this is
done the southeastern portion of Car-
ter County will be one of the most at-
tractice sections in Oklahoma.

crept to the line of the camp and
said: 'Sergeant I want to go out a
little while."
"You cannot go out" said the ser-
geant. 'We will go back to the
trench at 7. No one may go out."
'But 1 pledge you" pleaded Bruch-
ard. "I will be back at 7 less fifteen
minutes."
"You pledge!" sneered the ser-
geant. "Ah" cringed the soldier "Bru-
chard's pledge! It is nothing. The
word of an apache. But now ser-
geant I swear it. I will be back in
time."
The sergeant was unshaken. An
order was an order.
"Listen" cried the apache. Listen
sergeant. The last time in the trench-
es under fire I said to the good God:
'Before I come again I will go to
mass.' "
"Bruchard" growled the sergeant
'I believe you. Pass out. God have
mercy on your soul."
At 7 o'clock less fifteen minutes a
new BTuchard was back In camp.
