THE MASS MEETING
Attended BY Large crowd-A Motion "a
Adjourn Prevails Cutting OFF Ae-
tion Of Invitation.

The mass meeting last night in
front of the Iron Store was attended
/ by n crowd estimated at all the way
from 700 to 1000 people representing
all classes and conditions OF society.
They seemed to be deeply interested
in the matter at issue and were anx-
ious to hear il discussed.
Major Zuckerman was in the chair
and after he briefly stated the object
OF the meeting, five minute discus
sions were announced in order.
Judge Herbert was loudly called for
and responded without hesitancy.
the meeting was for the purpose OF
determining whether or not the city
should extend to the Florida Ath-
: letic club an invitation to bring OF
the bett-Fitzsimmons mill in
Ardmore. lie was opposed to ex-
7 tending any such invitation, to do
which in his judgment would be un-
wise and unpoli,ic. lie contended
that the question of law was the only
one that was or would be the him
derance. II Mr.. Stuart and his as
I sociates could be convinced there is
no law forbidding these contests in
the territory then the fight would
without invitation be ordered TO the
I Chickasaw Nation and Ardmore be-
ing better prepared TO handle the
crowd would most likely be desig-
mated as the available place. His
speech was well received.
Judge Scott, r. W. Dick and Cad
Bennett followed in speeches on
similar line Of thought after which a
motion TO adjourn was put and car
ried.
The result Of the meeting was
plainly victory for that element
opposed TO the fight backed up by
those who want Ardmore to have IL
if it comes to the territory, but who
did not want to put the whole peo-
pie on record as inviting Il to come.
As the ARDMoREITE views the
status of the situation no invitation
is necessary and more especially un
til assurances have first been OBJ
tanned that il Is not forbidden by the
laws under which we live.
