The building committee filed
their report recommending thst
we proceed at once to erect s

high Jno. D. Bailey bitterly op-
poaed the building of such an
expensive building faying there
was no uie unless we hsd a set
of county offcers who would give
ui protection, referring *o
the time that the club building
was burned by the Suffergist
just as he retired as sheriff of
Jackson, county saying he had
collected all the evidence needed
to convict the guilty party and
since thst time we had never had
aay officer brave enough to take
up the evidence and catch the
criminal. Six Sh«ter Urn B,d-
well declared if they would mve
him • clue he would make an
arrest Mr. Bailey
some Poodle dog tracks and a
pair of bloomers found on the
ground near where the club bui d-
ing was burned showing conclu-
sively thst the suffergist had
committed the crime. Mr. Bid-
well here weakened saying he
would not know how to catch a
criminal with this evidence. Mr.
Bailey explained all they had to
do was to try the evidence and
see who it fit. Bidwell backed
down; Sheriff English was sent
for; English claimed to be busy
but said he would turn the evi-
dence over to Sam Banks and
was probable that an arrest
would be made in the next few
days? The question of building
was defered til next meeting.
Josh Slivers of Izard County,
Ark-, spoke briefly of his com-

after traveling over 13 states he

a wife and 13 children to Jack- j

main reason for coming here was
to be in reach of the Ashlock
Dry Goods Co. Store where he
and his family could buy all their
Dry Goods right in one house.
Ashlock, the Big Store, East
side of the Square.
Yam Sims of Talladiga County
Alabama said he was coming to
Oklahoma and bring his wife, 9
children, together with eleven
dogs that after a thorough in-
vestigation he found it necessar}
with a man of his responsibilities
to be near a Grocery Store like
that conducted by M. V. Paine &
Sons, one block South of the
Square with all kind of good
things to eat and Garden Seed.
