THE ROAR IN OKLAHOMA. The Oklahoma correspondent of the St. Louis Kepublic tells of the wonderful industrial progress in Oklahoma since Statehood was obtained. Tilass works, pottery works, smelter and industrial plants of many other kinds are springing up and flourishing, flourish-ing, bringing in a great host of people, and the lands are appreciating in value so fast that the correspend-eut correspend-eut says: "If men want cheap lands in the new Slate, they had better not delay going there." It shows how things are moving in the East. At the same time, for glass works, pottery works, smelters smelt-ers and industrial plants of other kinds. Oklahoma does not compare with Utah. There are mineral treasures enoiicrh in fJre.it Salt lake to supply what ought to be the biggest ehemiral works in the I'nion. The State has perfect kaolin; it has the best sand for making glass in the Tinted Slates; it is the best climate to work in in the United States; supplies are as reasonable here as an v where. It is a marvel of the earth that some f tin; natural nat-ural products of this State, whieh are here in such abundance, and whieh are so valuable, are not put in commercial forms.
