INCORPORATION.
An Important Meeting Yesterday and
Lively Discussion Of the Proposition
Judge Kueore on the Situation.

A very important meeting was
that held yesterday morning at the
Office of Ledbetter & Bledsoe. In
corporation was the subject discuss
ed and incorporation will without
doubt follow that meeting.
Such men as Hardy, Frensley,
Wolverton, Spragins, Hinkle, Ham
mer and Wilmington do not give
their time and efforts to a PROPOSE
tion unless it means something, and
when you see in addition to this ele-
ment his honor Judge c. b. Klgore
taking a hand and discussing the
situation something is very likely to
happen in the no distant future.
OF course the bar was well repre-
sented and Ledbetter, Kendrick,
Herbert, Bledsoe and Eddleman af-
ter looking into the legal status Of
the question were of one opinion
and that opinion was that section Il
Of the Arkansas statutes applies to
Ardmore as it does to Little Rock,
and that under that section we can
and will enjoy the blessings OF n
municipal government.
The meeting convened at n. m,
with J. S. Hammer in the chair and
in a short time Judge Kilgore ar
rived and indicated a line OF action.
lie expressed himself as in favor Of
Ff,a MOVE .vT hnnaI 49,. a,rsG,r ., -,
corporate could be issued without
conflicting with the treaties or In
dian laws. lie said that 5000 citi-
zens OF the United States should be
allowed to establish some protection
for themselves and suggested the
appointment Of a committee TO in
vestigate the law, look up the au-
thorities and present the matter as
required by law when he would be
glad TO pass upon the question.
1t was very plainly demonstrated
to those who heard him that he
would go to the bottom OF the sub
iect and il was a relief to persons
present to feel that we have a Judge
who, not afraid of sentiment or crit
icism will at least give a decision
where so much is at stake, and not
pigeon hole the petition as has been
twice done by his predecessors.
Acting on the suggestion of Judge
Kilgore the chair appointed w. \.
Ledbetter, John Hinkle, &. B. Ken
drick and c. l.. Herbert n committee
to prepare the necessary papers, pc
titions and maps, the last to be fur
nished by the engineer now engaged
in plating the city and which will
be completed next Tuesday ready
for lithographing. The movement
is good one. IL has been properly
started, the people behind it are
pushers from the word 90 and no in
dividual opposition on the part OF
objectors or pull backs will deter
them from bringing the matter to an
issue and getting a final decision
from the highest court in authority.
