Mayor Dick informs us that he has
just conferred with the agents OF
the two railroads running into Ard
more relative to the placing and main
tanning of good and substantial cross
ings over the Santa Fe and Choctaw
railroads in northeast Ardmore.
Both Mr.. Dunham Of the Santa Fe
and Mr. zike Of the Choctaw assured
him that they would take the matter
up with their people and they believed
they would do what was right in the
premises
The mayor stated that the reason
he had not favored an aggressive move
against the railroads heretofore was
because they were still constructing
and building new tracks, and he did
not think the law would allow them
to Interfere with their work while
they were still building.
But that time has passed. the mayor
said, and he thought the railroads
ought to do something making suit
able crossings over their roads. here,
the move today IN that direction.
