Property in Chickasha keeps
climbing up and the corner lots on
the business street, anywhere
neal the center of business are
being held at $4,000 each, while
inside lots range from $4,000 and
up. Lots are not swapping hands
very fast at these prices, and good
buildings are scared from going
up.
While these prices are for lots
strictly on the business street, one
party is offering so feet front on
a corner of the next street within
a stones throw of the thorough
fare to any one free who will put
up a good hotel. This is the con-
dition of town lots at present.
Residence lots are held at fair to
reasonable prices as yet.
The policy Of asking these enor-
NOUS. prices for property is re-
Iarding the growth of the city.
Men don't care care to erect good
substantial buildings on lots at
such figures. AT reasonable pric-
IS for well located lots would see

Regards Bryan,

We Of the south have reached our
level Of citizenship. Absolute unity is
no longer necessary to avert a dire
danger We can participate IN public
questions and share ii government for
tine common good
Moreover, with our minds and mus
Gle and manhood we have, In spite Of
dangers, In every department Of hui
man effort and industry in our land,
brought forth wonderful resources and
achieved wonderful results. 80

20 for Bryan. On the other hand,
men of business and enterprise, re-
sponsibIe nnd thoughtful, are al
most unanimous agninsf him.
To me Mr. Mckinley represents large
ly stability in general management and
improving financial conditions and
sound principles. He is trying to do
his duty.
In Mr.. Bryan l can only recognize
the champion Of change, the leader
of the outs against the ins, the
mouthpiece of fault finders, the
head center of ma1contents, the
mirror and kodak of every phase of
politics and fnBaticism, nm india

WHAT BRYAN COULD DO.
If Elected, He Might Put the Treas
ury on IL silver Basis.

ury on "a silver Basis.
The following conclusions are war
ranted by a critical analysis of proba-
bilities:
An unfriendly administration could
without further legislation put the gov
eminent upon the silver basis.
To accomplish this end would re-
quire skill, persistency and disregard
for law, however adrotly concealed.
The effort to accomplish it would Sc
riously disturb general finances, trade
and industry.
1t would impair the public credit and
make it impossible to sell bonds for the
restoration of the gold reserve within
the limits of interest required by law.
Its effect upon trade and industry
would be such as to impair the reve-
nue., so that a deficiency would be Gre
ated instead of a surplus realized.
1T would cripple the treasury and
so disable it that it could not re-
deem It's demand obligations, either
la silver or gold.
it would not of necessity reduce the
country in it's general operations of
trade industry to the silver basis.
AS in California during the civil war,
gold could be maintained as the stand
ard in commercial affairs, in which
case silver and legal tender govern
ment notes might and probably would
pass at a discount.
