I had ft rat gtven him t»> understand
) that the state of facts he retried
! really existed, ttnydar'a com-
I milL-e sent to Lawton to investi-
gate and ascertain if possible tin
animus of the article were assur-
ed by every member of the Law-
um committee who \ iaitud Hnydei
that they had said nothing and
made no statements on which
Neff's diatribe could lisvo beer,
based. Mr. Neff said be had bis
information from a r«-li ible source
but declined to name his inform-
ant.
Now the true Htuto of the cose
is as follows:
Lawton subscribed a certain
amount towards the relief of the
cyclone sufferers. Then it was
determined to U6e the money in
establishing a hospital there foi
care of Snyder’s injured. The
Lawton doctors who kindly came
to assist in caring for the injured,
on their return to Lawton took
u n or a dozen of the injured to
Lawton with th»*m. Two of thesi
nave since been brought back to
Snyder, one taken to the Frisco
hospital at Springfield, Mo , and
one was returned here to be bur-
ied with othi r members of hit
family who were killed. Satur-
day afternoon following the storm
a committee of Lawton gentlemen
headed by the mayor came ovei
and generously offered to take ali
our injured to Lawton and cart
for them free of expense to tht
Relief compiittee, A, piepting ol
the Snyder Relief committee wa.
called and the matter laid before
committee by Chairman Dowden,
the “townsite man” to whom
Neff refers, Mr. Dowden insteac
of “opposing the removal of tht
patients” as tho Democrat sayt
he did, “recommended that tht
committee accept the proposition
so generally made by the Law-
ton people.” The first words cf
opposition to the acceptance ol
the proposition were spoken by
the editor of this paper, who is h
member of the General Reliel
Committee and Superintendent ol
the Hospital Department of the
relief work. The editor asked
the committee to confer with the
surgeons in charge and friends ol
the patients before the offer war
accepted stating that he thought
any hasty action in turning ali
the patients over to Lawton would
subjeqt (ha committee to just
criticism—that something besides
the mere saving of dollars and
cents to the general relief fund
should be considered—that the
suffering ones and their relatives
had a claim on the committee
which could not lightly be ignor-
ed. If the patients were kept
here their relatives could see them
without going to the expense ol
a trip tt> which expense
nany who had lost ali in the
otorm could not meet.” Others
of the committee then feli in with
these views and a conference with
•ne eu"1*^119 anc* others was held
*nd Lawton’s generous C~Z7
c mrteously declined.
The Democrat stated that the

given by the Democrat. In re-
commending the acceptance of
Lawton’s offer Mr. Dowden did
say that '‘the acceptance of Law-
ton’s offer would relieve tho com
mittee of a heavy expense and
that this was much to be desired
as we would need more momy
than we were likely to get to re-
build Snyder”—the committee at
a previous meeting having out-
lined plans for use of monojs in
rebuilding actual homes and hav-
ing decided that not a dollar of it
was to be used in rebuilding bus-
iness or rental properties. Mr.
Uuwilen owns nothing but busi-
property in Snyder, hence his re-
marks about me money needed
to rebuild Snyder referred solely
to the many iiomva which were
destroyed by the cyclone and not
to rebuilding his own properties.
Mr. Dowden sustained lessee as
did every member of the commit
tee and yet all of thecommitteare
determined that the relief moneys
must and shall be used in rebuild-
ing homes actually bccupied by
i-hoCiWnt-rsaiidin replacing hous*
noid effects of those who occupied
rented properties. The commit-
tee will not have anything like
money enough to replace all the
losses but the apportionment hai
Deen placed in the hands of a
sub*committee of eleven business
men who were selected at a mass
meeting oi our citizens and all
the moneys will be justly appor-
