Under Steclq and Scay everything
was graft ; nothing was done. ?. hen
Renfrow was inducted Into otlico he
turned his attention immediately to
school land revenues and within three
years over 7000 quarter sections of
land were turned from vacancy to rev-
enue producers. Tho immense revenue
now rolling into the department U the J
result of wise and judicious leasing of
lands during Renfrow's administra-
tion. The big school land notes aro
just falling due.
According to the report of School
Land Commissioner Filson just issued
under the Oklahoma law a total of
S072.130.41 has been collected for the
usoof district schools 3102871 45 for
colleges and 8104594.71 for public
buildings.
In addition an annual rcvonue of
S3 000 is collected from sections 13 and
33. which is held in trust until Okla-
homa becomes a ntatu. The public
building fund has grown at a rate of
S80.000 per year. At tho government
pric the school landH uro valued at
S3 000 000 but tho actuul value is sev
eral times this amount. During tbo
year just past many acbB of land in
Kay Garfleld and Grant couuties wero
condemned for railroad purposes. Tho
value of lands In those counties at the
value of 830 per acre appraised for
these railroads amounts to the high
figure of 80000000. New Mexico has
adopted Oklahoma's rules for leasing
school lands and already reports good
results.
Iu after years when the students of
Oklahoma set about to commemorate
some special Oklahoma day they will
not forget to lay special stresB on the
gotd work of the Renfrow Democratic
administration which jerked the
school land business from the hands
of grafters perfected a revenue pro-
ducing system and made it possible for
the eduoatlonal institutions of tho ter-
ritory to profit from the proeeeds of
school land lenses.

The Vogeler company of Baltimore
haa failed. There are many persons
perhaps who do not recall just what
the Vogeler company's mission v?as
and yet ten years ago it was perhaps
better known than any other adver-
tising concern in America. By keeping
itself constantly before tho people as
the manufacturer of St. Jacob's Oil.laB
lone-authority declares It simply coined
money. Its reputation was as wide as
the world. By aggressive advertising
alone it succeeded in making the chief
commodity which it manufactured a
staple article in nearly every house-
hold. And then believing itself to bo
so strongly entrenched that the public
would not forgot it it became conserv-
ative withdrawing its announcements
from the newspapers and depending
on moro primitive methods of catching
the public eye. As a result of this
conservatism ono of the most pros-
perous 1iou6cb in the United States hub
gone to the wall.

BJ any doubt has existed as to the1
thorough Amerlcanlsatlon of Mnnlla
It will bo dispelled by an article pub-
lished In the Manila Times a copy of
whloh was recently received nt the
war department in Washington. This
article which is the paper's leading
editorial Is entitled "Bells on Bicy-
cles" and is in part ns follows: "Some
restriction should be put on tho bi-
cycles that wobble about frantically
ungoverned and silently along the
sidewalks of tho Lueuta and Mnlecon.
With few oxcoptlons the Spnnlarda
and half-casts who monopoliao tho
wheel do not make proficient riders.
They flop from side to side In a dis-
tressing manner that would bo eotnl-
cal were It not nt the same iimo dan-
gerous to tho pedestrian. When thoy
havo loarnod tho rudiments of rldlngr
then It enters their -brain to bewitch
tho world with their skill. In plain-
but vulgar English they ride up and
down the Luenta holding on to the
handlebar with ono hand only or
pedaling with ono foot or shooting by
a pedestrian ns close as they dura
without actually brushing up ngalnst
him for the pure love of showing off.
As however they havo no warning
bell to sound and as many of them
are as clumsy vlth their toy as a co
with a razor every now and then itr
results In the occurrence of serious.
accidents. Ouly lost week the tyro.Jit-
llo children of an English' resident. J
wero knocked down and nearly killed.
A day later another child was knocked
down and another little tot so badly
scared that it stopped Into the ditch
and hurt Itself. We do not advocate
that bicycling should be tampered
with In any way. All we advocate Is.
this and It seems to us that our de-
mands are reasonable; that during
the most crowded part of tho lay bi
cyclists should not be allowed on the
Luenta sidewalk. Thoy should be
made to take their place on tho road
the sahie as ull other vehicles. More-
over we would havo them carry a bell
and sound that bell when they aro
crossing a pedestrian's path as a note
of warning."
