WHERE IS THE VIADrCT!
The proposed and promised via-
duct over the Santa Fe tracks in this
j city has so far failed to materialize.
It is stated that -plan, are being
drawn np but it Is was also stated
month, ago that they had been com-
pleted. Guthrie deserves, needs and
should have the viaduct and mere ap-
preciation of the patronage tendered
the railroad should secure the prom-
ised Improvement.

jwelA CITY
This map taken from official record,
of the State Land Department shows
the location of the land offered by
Oklahoma City in place of the free
million dollar capitol building they
promised the people. Their committee
values thig land at Jl,400,000 or $1650
an acre, but R. H. Gardner, a director
of the Oklahoma City Chamber of
Commerce, testified before the State
Board of Equalization, that it was
worth only $120,000 and Fred Gum,
head of one of the largest Investment
companies In Oklahoma City, that it
was worth but $13,000 as a loan basis
and $65,000 as a real estate specula-
tion.
In 58 scattered tracts, located in ra-
vines and brakes with over 20# 8aws
in the titles these lands could net
be sold for any price at this time. Yet
poor as it is Oklahoma City holds it
through a private trustee and doe. not
turn it over to the state, demanding
that they first be released of their ob-
ligations to furnish a free capitol and
to pay rents and moving expenses.
Neither Oklahoma City nor its Com-
mittee has ever turned over an acre
of land or a dollar to the state and
they have broken every promise they
made the people.
Study this map carefully and figure
out for yourself how long it will take
to build a capitol from these lands
and how much rent the taxpayers
must pay at $40,000 a year before
they get a capitol at Oklahoma City.
