School Board Meeting.

The school board met last
night in the Reece building, al
lower a few small bills, and dis
cussed the rent being paid on
some of the buildings. 1t seems
in one case that the Real Estate
firm of o. II. Geagan and Co.
rented a room to citizens COM
mittee for a school room and
were to receive $1,000 per month
for it. The board gives Mr..
Geagan q warrant for $1,000. In
order to cash the warrant it must
be discounted 10 per cent. Mr..
Geagan has TO go down in his
pocket and dig up the S1.00 dis
count in order TO satisfy his land
lord. This is wrong to force Mr..
Geagan to lose the S1.00 each
month. We are of the opinion
that the citizens committee who
rented this house for the school
board should see that this is paid
as they agreed to give S10.00rent
and not $500. The rent ques-
ton was dropped withoutany ac-
ton at all by the board. The
board next considered the affi-
davit of Mr.. Bugg and a mo-
ton was made by Coleman that
the board will not proceed with
the school buildings until this
boodling proposition is settled.
The motion carried. Jas. A.
Craine through his attorney A.
j. Perry produced an affidavit
that he, Jas. A Craine, had not
offered Bugg $4,000 or any
other amount for his vote. The
board then agreed to adjourn one
week in order to give both Bugg
and Craine a chance to get more
evidence on this question. In
the mean time not one step for
ward will be made by the school
board in erecting these school
houses. Why don't the work be-
gin as Mr.. Tirpie said it would?
This school house wrangling must
stop. Work must begin. Don't
delay another day.

j. M. Snap of Apache was in
the city yesterday, and while
here dropped into the Democrat
Office for a chat. He is a great
friend to Oklahoma and especial
ly Caddo county. His fine farm
joins the city of Apache and he
has the advantage of living on a
farm and in the city at the same
time. Mr.. Snapp believes that
Apache has plenty of room for
two newspapers and that the
wide awake business men of that
city knowing the benefit of print
ers ink will support them well.
Mr.. Snapp informed us that if
the farmers back in Iowa, Illinois
and other eastern states knew of
our fine climate, mild winters and
rich soil, our immigration would
be larger than it is. We have
repeatedly called the attention of
our business men to this fact,
just mail your friends back there
a copy of the Democoat for one
year and we will do the rest.
When the farmers in those states
learn that good land here can be
bought for SO to S12 per acre,
and that they can raise wheat,
corn, cotton and all kinds of
here, that the winters
are mild and very short, hat
they do not have to feed to heir
stock everything they raise 70 get
them through the winter, that all
kinds of fruit grows to perfection
here, they will come, and come in
a hurry. And they will be class
of people that we will be proud
of. While our immigration is
large at present we think land is
too cheap here, and the only way
to get higher prices is to get more
buyers. Try our suggestion.
