EDITOR INDIAN CHIEFTAIH:.-I
expect there are few friends who
read the CHIEFTAIN who would like
TO hear from the Choctaw country,
SO i will give you a few items from
our little town. McAlester and
the mines have n population OF
about 2,200. Our town is kept up
principally by the mines.
There are three coal mines here
with a capacity of / 800 tons daily,
and they furnish employment for
about 600 men. Our principal mer-
chants are T. j. Phillips, who is do
ing big business, and J. j. Meal
ester, who is also doing a thriving
business. There are several others
but they are too numerous TO
mention.
Owing 10 the recent rains. the
crops in this section are looking
splendid. Old farmers say there
are better prospects for corn this
year than there have been for a long
time.
There are many things on our
programme for the 4th of July.
We hope TO see many ofour friends
from abroad.
The McAlester mines cornet
band has taken charge of the inn
mense skating rink, and we think
they will make a success at it.
Our schools have been closed for
their summer holidays.
There is quite a number of vi
nita people in our town.
How would you like TO take some
Of them back, Mr.. Editor
Mrs. Phillips took the train to-
day for Mississippi, where she will
stay for few weeks visiting rela-
tives and friends. We wish her
pleasant trip, good time, and a
safe return.
Mr.. Doc McAlester has just re-
turned from st. Louis. lie has
been buying a stock of goods for
their new store at the mine.
Mr.. M. S. Montague, of st.
Louis, has taken charge of Mr..
Phillips store at the mines. We
wish him well.
The Knights Of Pythias will or
ganize a lodge here on June 18th.
