BRIDGE OVER SOUTH CANADIAN
Canadian County Is Asking Assistance
for That Purpose.

Guthrie, o. T.. Feb. 27.-Maxwel. OF
Canadian. is out in an interview relative
to the building of a bridge across the
South Canadian. He says:
When congress divided the new coun-
Try into counties. three townships of the
Wichita reservation were added TO Cana
dian county Previous TO this the South
Canadian river was the south boundary
o: Canadian county, and our people ex-
Vected some dav to join with the county
across the river in building a substantial
bridge. But the act of congress threw
the boundary lines OF our county across
the river and defeated all such prospects
Now the point: Congress gave the
three new counties over $3.50 90 derived
from lot sales in the new country. and
seventy-fve per cent Of that money is TO
be used for roads and bridges: but that
part of the country added to Canadian
county was cut out without cent.
Canadian county is not asking the ter
ritory 20 build a bridge for her. but IT is
merely asking for help. provided the coun-
II and CITY OF FL Reno contributes so
much toward the bridge Canadian eoun-
u has been paying taxes since Oklahoma
was first opened 10 settlement and she
has helped in the upbuilding Of every
good institution in the territory. II she
ever received an appropriation from the
territory I don't know when II was.
Everyone knows what treacherous
stream the South Canadian is. Many
settlers have been swallowed IN the quick
sand while trying to ford the river An
communication with the southwest part
OF the territory must cross IL Home
s;eaders going to the land Office. or the
county seat must risk their lives to get
there.
II II was for to- benefit OF Canadian
county alone. ! would not ask the leSis-
lafure 10 help US in this great undertake

THE OLYMPIA.

The success of the Olympia opera COM
pany in New Orleans has no parallel for
light thea tricais N the musical history
Of the metropolis. In the brief period of
ten weeks no less than eighteen operas
were given thorough and complete pre-
sentation. In order for company TO
present such a large assortment OF operas
il certainly must have versatile and clever
people. BY referring 10 the New Orleans
Times Democrat We find that il reads:
The Olympia company has played many
cnga Ccmcnts in New Orleans. but instead
Of wearing out its welcome. il becomes
stronger f2Vorite az every appearance.
The Olympia Opera company is composed
of artists. that is why people never tire
of seeing il in its repertoire OF bright and
catchy operas.
