TULSA AND KLAMATH
i" FALLS
!One of the important
things uttered by the Okla
homans here yesterday was
, that big as Tulsa has grown,
riSh s she is, it is difficult
to keep abreast with city
improvements and impos-
sijle to keep taxes within j
refcion.
jlamath Falls is In the j
same boat only in a much i
snfriler degree. Tulsa had
700 people' in -1920 and
she' now lias 140,000.
Klamath's population -has
doubled also , in the same
length of time. Each city
is ( up against exactly the
same problems more sew-
ertf more
paving, more
SCOOlS. .
But there is this consola
tirM to every property own
er ip either of the cities
the taxes although very
high, are in reality iil in
vestment that will return
dividends in time to come.
Improvements made now
really increase values and
they will continue to in-
cre,ase as th.oivthpro-
. gresses.
There is no such thing as
standing still. yIt cannot be
done. Either a city ad
vances or it slips backward,
and when it advances we
have to meet the demands
-"foPj improvements. Tulsa
and "Klamath bear a mark
ed (resemblance in the mat
ter of keeping step with the
procession.

straightened up in his saddle
once more. j
They traveled on in silence. At
times 1 1 chemist felt inclined i
to speak either to Ellse or Yllak
but was checked by their ex
pression, one nervous. Impatient,
worried, the other cool and grim
ly watchful.
Their course for a short dis
tance became a crock which the
violent ruins had flooded Into a
small river. They pUiimed In
anil followed It with some dif
ficulty, the water occasionally ris
ing past their stirrups. Here and
there when the red volcanic
rocks of the region formed a pool
of clear water they could see cur.
ions fish sporting: hero and there
a fat ponderous turtle plodded
ligator lifted Its head aa they
passed, menacing them, with its
red jaws. Vilak stopped to kill
it with a well-directed bullet, for
the creek ws part of a fairly
frequented highway and any of
the gigantic litards who strayed
there were a distinct danger.
At length they left the stream)
und came out onto a muddy road i
j again. The noise of their horses
frightened a family of armntllllos
that evidently had been quietly
teposing somewhere behind the
thick palms, for they darted
across the road In such panic that
it was only by suddenly checking
! his horse that Vilak was able to
lavold crushing them.
tn roan rose gruuuaiiy up a
hill, fell to a ravine, then
went up a short but fairly steep
slope of another hill. As the rid
ers rounded a bend, seven mount
ed soldiers came into view on the
hilltop. They came slowly riding
toward the Americans. Vilak's
bushy blond eyebrows lifted.
As the soldiers approached, he
saw that they were grabed In tat
tere blue and red uniforms of a
design much like that of the gen
darmes. They were distinguished
from' the latter, however, by the
fact that they all. seemed white
