Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin Writes for Data on Existing Con ditions In this Section of the New State. Itellef seems to bo In sight for tho various cities In tho new state bo as coal may bo secured at a living price. The matter of rates on coal from South McAIostor to points in tho In dian Territory and Oklahoma has been taken up by Senator 1-aKollotto of Wisconsin to whose attention the mattor was brought by tho various commercial clubs In tho state. To Ardmoro belongs the palm for beginning tho agitation of the ques tion and to the president and secre tary of our commercial club belongs tho honor for commencing the agita tion. Secretary Sanders has forwarded considerable data to Senator Iil'ol lotto explaining tho situation to Hint as to how the railroads discriminate against tho cities In tho statu on the rate on coal. Tho mattor of tho coal trust exist ing, or the agreement between tho McAleoter l'uel company and tho mine owners has also been brought to the attention of the renate as, well. Ardmoro, n city of over 15.000 In habitants, located nt tho door of tho miner. Is compelled to pay such an exorbitant pries for coal as n fuol so as to make It almost Impossible for manufacturers to exist In this section. Ardmoro Is not tho only city that Is a sufferer but Oklahoma City and other lnrg towns ns well. It has been said that oven South McAlester coal users nre In the hands of the McAlester Fuol company and that peoplo In that city havo to pay a big price for fuel coal. i T. J.

Tho telephone coniKiny Is at pres ent engaged In putting In the now phone servlco and within the next two week all of the business section will be connected up. and within the month the entire son-ice WM be In. At present the force Is working un der h heavy handicap, as two switch board and centrals havo to be run. The message nre trunk lined from the new cenfal ofllce to the old and then eonncet'oii Is made, and In thH way those v:ho have the new phone" a well a those who havo the old system nre getting poor service. The fact that the public is receiv ing any accommodation whatever Is to tho commendation of Manager ller ry and his nsslstnnts, for as a rule telephone companies when making n change generally cut out the entire service until nil tho connections are made, but Mr. Kerry wants to do tho best that Is po'slblo under the cir cumstances nml only asks that tho public bear with him patiently. At present about ISO new phones are giving n llttlo trouble until nil tho connections nro perfected. It Is hard under the existing circumstances to find where the trouble lies when any exists. The poor young girls who nre at the station neei to bo commended In stead of censured ns It usually the case with the public who do not know what the contention Is. They nro all working like beavors to accommodato and public nnd learn tho new Bys tern which Is tho opposlto of tho old nnd render services nt tho same time. If a person would visit tho central office ono day and seo about fifteen or twenty phonos rtngliu -it "0 tlmo and no poor girl working her bend off to please all, there would be less balling out than what Is done nt pres ent.
