Roada Called nO To Pay State Tax.
Six railroad companies were noti-
fied that they should qualify to do
business under a law passed by the
sixth legislature. The law authorizea
foreign corporationa to do business in
the state on the payment of a fee of
one-tenth of 1 per cent of the amount
of the capital Invested within the
state.
A law replaced by the new measure
required foreign corporations to pay
a tax of one-tenth of 1 per cent of
their entire capital stock in order to
do business in the state. This tax the
corporations refused to pay, and their
action waa upheld by the supreme
oourt.
The roads notified wer the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe, the Fort
Smith A Western, the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific, and the Missouri.
Kansas and Texas. Notice was alto
lent to the American Express Com-
pany. The Frisco has paid Its fee.
Earp'a Salary Held Up.
Ganeral Earp draws »1,800 a year as
adjutant general. The last lsglslaturs
appropriated $700 a year to pay ths
salary of cuatodlan for the capltcl and
stipulated that the place should De
filled by ths adjutant general.
Howard contends that it is unlawful
for Earp to draw pay as cuatodlan of
ths capitol because It is unconstitu-
tional for the salary of an officer to
bs Increased during his tenure and
also maintains that it is unlawful for
a man to draw salaries from holding
two state offices.
A similar situation caused the turn-
ing down of the salary of Doctor Long,
who as dean of ths school of medicine
of the University of Oklahoma re-
ceives 1250 a month from the stats.
The sixth legislature provided that the
university hospital director should
serve as medical advisor to the indu3
trial commission and that he shouid
receive $100 for this service.
The bill making tbis provision Bpo
clflcallv provided that the act should
not be unconstitutional, but Mr. How-
ard says this makes it none the less
■o. Ths bills making the appropria-
tions went into effect July 1

Ths work on tbs nsttonal guard can-
foment to be erected at Fort Sill, was

The Ray Shortage.
The schcol land commissior, which
has come to be a clearing h:>us«. for
capitol quarrels, had an airing o* the
Claude Ray shortage case wl.eD Gov-
ernor Williams demanded a nltemized
Itat of the claims against Ray * bonds-
men.
It was stated that a list o'. claims
against the surety companiej would
have to be filed by August 19 the ex>
piration cf the 90 day time lirrit. T e
governor said the state examiner and
inspector's force had been wr.king on
Ray's books for months and that there
was no prospect of a rerort in time to
•fl'e it. He called Colin Valentine, dep-
uty examiner and inspector In char e
of the Ray Investigation, Into the
meeting.
Charters Issued Keep increasing.
An increase of 268 psr cent In ths
amount of revenue turned Into the
state from his office is shown by ths
annual report of Secretary of State
Lyon. In the fiscal year, which ended
June 30, revenue totalling $289,360.68
waa collected by Lyon. Ths greater
part of this was from charters, the
amount from this source being $272,-
736.37. There were 985 more Instru-
ments of record filed than the year
1916, and 1,827 more than in 1915.
The report shows the total expenses
of the department last year to be $14,-
430.01.
48 Million Barrels OM~First « Months.
During the first six months of 1917
Oklahoma oil wells produced 48,750,-
000 barrels of oil. In the same period
of time Kansas oil wells produced only
13,525.000 barrels, or Just slightly
more than a quarter as much as was
produced In this state.
The gas output in Oklahoma for that
length of time was 1,207,000.000 cubic
feet. Approximately 95.600.000 cubic
feet of gas was produced in Kan saa

A grand sverags of 85.9 miles per gal-
