Whine, SAYING that in an issue OF the
Eagle he noticed an article asking the
business men OF this city 10 subscribe TO
800 COO OF the stock Of the Union Con-
struction company. and that this sUbscrip-
ton would be added to by Fir. Sdllwell
and the construction of the Orient from
this city to the Red river would be as
sured. Mr.. Smith stated that he was will
ing TO subscribe for 81 ,000 of the stock,
as the road when completed would pass
near his farm; and mere than that. he
thought t would be a good investment.
Messrs. Potts. Whine. Naftzger ard Da-
wilson have called q meeting for this
evening at s o'clock in the city building.
when all who are interested in the com
pletion OF the Orient from Wichita to
the Red river at an early date are urged

Wichita the biggest thing on the whole
