ADA ADOPTS RESOLUTIONS.
Favors Union with Oklahoma as One
State

Favors Union with Oklahoma as one
state.
At a recent mass meeting OF the
citizens OF Ada the following resolu-
tions we're adopted:
Whereas, On the 10th Of November
last a convention was held In the town
OF Ardmore, I. T., for the purpose of
making known to congress the needs
and the wishes Of the people Of the
Indian Territory; and
Whereas, The movement which re-
suited In said convention originated
in the town Of Ada and delegates from
Ada participated in said convention;
and
Whereas, said convention passed
resolutions asking congress to grant
the Indian Territory representation,
and also thanked Representative Moon
OF Tennessee for the interest which
he had taken in our affairs; and
Whereas. Said resolutions have been
construed into an expansion OF opin-
ion by said convention as being OPP
posed to union with Oklahoma in
statehood. even though it could be OBJ
tained upon fair and equal terms, and
as favoring the creation of a separate
state out Of the Indian Territory, now
therefore be II
Resolved, BY the people of Ada in
mass meeting assembled
I That the people of Ada, and we
believe that fully 80 per cent. of the
people of the Chickasaw nation, are in
favor Of union with Oklahoma in state
hood at the earliest possible time.
provided only that such union be made
upon fair and equal terms. and that
We be granted the right to participate
in framing the constitution OF the new
state and in locating the public insti.
tutions.
2. That the delegates from Ada TO
the Ardmore convention voted for the
resolution adopted there because they
were under the impression that con
gress was unwilling to grant union
with Oklahoma upon equal terms.
3. That the delegates from Ada to
said Ardmore convention report that
every speaker who addressed said con
yention announced that he was in IA
vor Of union with Okphoma. provided
it could be obtained upon fair and
equal terms, but deemed II inexpedient
TO asi, for this owing to the supposed
indisposition of congress to grant such
union.
4. That in the opinion Of this meet
ing. partisan politics. sectional feel.
ings and prejudices should give place
to patriotism. and that the wishes of
the interested few should give place
to the rights and interests of the peo-
pie. and that the interests of the peo.
pie VIII be best promoted by the pas.

ity of the senate committee on terri
tories, providing for the union of Okla

DR.. R. w. soper.

Dr. r. w. Soper left town Wednes-
day night for parts unknown and for
reasons unknown. 1t is true he left
behind him numerous debts, but he
also left behind numerous accounts,
which if paid would probably offset
his indebtedness. His disappearance
has caused considerable comment in
both social and business circles in Earl.
vile, and it also demonstrates the var
ious phases of human nature.
An acquaintance with DR.. Soper
proved him to be generous to fault,
knowing not the value of money. Ii
needy hand was extended to him he
was q liberal giver. In any public en-
terprise he was in the forefront. In any
circle he was perfectly at home. He
had his faults-who has not-and his
greatest fault was he was weak; be
knew not how to deny himself or hi
friends anything he or they wished; hi
was royal entertainer and had facul
ty Of making everyone feel at home.
These things are mentioned, not tt
condone his faults, but "when the breatl
of scandal touches the garment of i
fellow being there are many to con
denim and accept the naked charge as
positive proof OF guilt" and to remin
these that though he had faults he ais
had good traits.
Let the mantle of charity be draw
and the incident dropped, with hop
that he may gather firmness of chara'
, ter that will prevent any such futul
actions. -Earville Phoenix
