At a meeting of the renrese r.tativo
citizens held this afternoon in this
city for the purpose of railing a bLiius
asked for by Mr. John Ringlit.g to
build a railroad I had the linn-ir of
being elected chairman.
This meeting authorized me to ap-
point a committee for the purpose of
raising funds to meet this bonus lie-
cause of your recognized standing for
the public welfare and the develop-
ment of our resources it affords me
genuine pleasure to apioint you.
The requirements by Mr. Ringlingj
upon the part of Ardmore are as fol-j
lows: i
1st. The securing of a right of
way for a continuous 10 miles west-!
ward from Ardmore.
2nd. Ixx'al terminal grounds and j
right of way from the terminal
grounds to the eastern limits of the i
city. j
3rd. $100000.00 in cash or its
equivalent in property at such a price
as may 1e agreed upon by the parties.
It is to be understood that the above
amount is not to be delivered until
the road is actually built and trains
operated thereon under regular sche-
dule. Mr. Ringling agrees to have the
railroad completed within one year;
to commence construction within 60
days at or near Ardmore and to es-
tablish the general offices of tre
railroad company at Ardmore.
Your duties are to meet these re-
quirements speedily. Mr. Ttingling re-
quests immediate action and 1f your
committee is active in its efforts and
secures this bonus as it can easily
do Mr. Ringling can and will he in

It i3 conceded by all that iwe need
a railroad westward. These people
can and will build it. Let us meet
their conditions thereby developing
the country and benefiting ourselves.
Therefore please meet with your
My personal investigation of thisl
proposition leads me to believe that
these people are in earnest reliable
and financially competent anff w..i-;
ing to build a railroad. My faith and
confidence in this matter is f-videnc- j
ed by my subscription of $2.o(l0. L
should be delighted to accord you !
whatever assistance within my poer
but enforced absence precludes my
acting with you.
Very sincerely

CONTROVERSY OF ADMISSION
OF OLD SOLDIER TO HOME IS
EXPLAINED BY SUPT. GALT.
With reference to the Old Con-
federate soldier wlio was sent here
from Atoka county to enter the Con-
federate Home and whom Judgu
Gait the superintendent was unable
to relieve because he had failed to
provide himself with the proper
credentials. Judge Gait said yester-
day: "The idea seems to prevail anion;?
some people that I was the one at
fault In this matter and that
should have taken him in upon his
arrival when the fact of the matter
is that my hands are absolutely
tied in the matter as I have nothing
to say who shall and who shall not
be admitted to the home. That i
entirely in the hands of the board of
managers md every applicant for
admission must have; his application
approved and signed by the presideir.
of the board. When he arrived here
I furnished hint with a blank to fiil
out and I believe that he is e'igible
but tha: is not sufficient in itselr
for his I'dniissiou to the home. The
people at Atoka acted very strangely
14. this matter of sending him here
without first writing and finding out
what steps were necessary. As it Is
th old man will have to wait until
hU case is passed upon by the
board of managers and his applica-
tion approved by General Hailuy
the president. In aiiy event he
should have remained at his home
until he had been notified that he
ha.l been admitted.
