GREAT Is AaDMoRE

Nine years ago today the
Foundation for the prosperous
city of Ardmore was laid. 1t
was not by the erection Of a
brick building or laying out a
stone block, but by the pitching
of tent on the lot where now
stands the frame structure
known as the Frensley building
near the railroad right of way
on Main street. The progress
from that day until this has
been a steady growth until now
VIC can boast of 1000 inhab-
itanis and a substantially built
city, ne metropolis of the In
dian Territory and the pride of
orr people. The remarkable
growth of Ardmore has been a
source of wonder to the outside
world. 1t is today more talked
of than is any city between
Galveston and Kansas City. 1t
will continue to grow and pros
per and we predict that by the
time we celebrate the tenth an
niversary the population will
have increased TO 1900 people.
In commercial Importance
ArdmOre is none the less to the
front. 1t is the largest local
cotton markst in the south, and
this season will on a conserv-
ative estimate handle from wag-
Ons at least $4,000 bales of the
fleecy staple. The rich mineral
resources surrounding are just
now being developed and before
another year will have added
another most important feature
of prosperity. Ardmore has
passed through the season of
uncertainties and is now ready
to enter upon the renewed era
of prosperity that awaits her.
Great is the Ardmore of today
and still greater is the Ardmore
of the future.

News has been received here
that 1000 tickets has already
been sold at Cleburne and 500
at Fort Worth for excursionist
to Ardmore for today's picnic.
There will no doubt be from
5000 to 5000 from other railroad
points To say nothing of the
thousands from the surround
ing country. These will all
have to be fed and entertained.
The gre boys will spare no pains
in doing their part, but it be-
hooves our people here to aid
them in every possible way. 1t
is too late now TO prepare for
them at the grounds save by
means of baskets from every
home in the city. This can be
done even with the short time
left for the preparation. Let
all of Ardmore turn out and
take with them basket contri-
buttons. This is the occasion
of our history and our reputa-
ton for caring for visitors must
be maintained all hazards.

MANY of the Ardmore her
chants are bashful about PIE
senting their claims in the way
of advertising for today's cele-
bration, but Notwithstanding
this fact they are a live set of
gentlemen who will gladly well
come you. There are many in
stitutions in Ardmore, financial,
commercial and Industrial, that
you do not see represented in
the columns of the ARDMOREITE,
but it is not because they are
not enterprising, it is simply
because they are bashful. We
make this explanation in order
that you may not judge the
town by our patronage. Some
times you know the newspapers
of a place are taken as the basis
on which estimates of impor-
tance are made. That wont do
II ArdmOre. Our people believe
the ARDMoREITE is a great pa
per and the ARDMoREITE be-
lieves ArdmOre is a great town,
even if one merchant or bust
ness man in ten does not pat
ronize its advertising columns.

In this issue we publish a no.
tice for Clarence B. Douglas in
regard to citizenship claims.
Mr.. Douglas is particularly well
qualified to present the claims

represented the townsite inter-
est last winter and his personal
relation with the departments
before whom such casee will be
prosecuted. Parties desiring to
prove up rights in the territory

Douglas.

subject of home rule for the

word, but we believe it is peo-
Piled by men in every way
capable of administering its af-
fairs. The present campaign
being one of principle, this is
a most opportune time for out
spoken sentiment on all PROPOSE
tons effecting our future des-
tiny. Home rule either by elec-
ton or appointment is a prin-
ciple of paramount Importance.
