RIshsI to Remain

J. B. Rishel, Rock Island freight
agent whose transfer to Oklahoma
City was announced sometime ago,
has received notice that he will be
permitted to continue to make
Chickasha his headquarters. Mr..
Rishell likes Chickasha and he
finds he can work to better ad-
vantage for his company here. He
is one of our best citizens and we
are pleased that he is to remain
among us.

Baseball

We can have a baseball team
in chickasha if we want it. Mana
ger Hazlett has signed contract
to put in a team at Shawnee. He
received a fine offer from that city
and accepted it. The city gives
him eight acres of land and makes
all the necessary improvements for
a base ball park. The electric line
to the park, however, will not be
completed before the last of May,
and Mr.. Hazlett's team will play
the games here that have been
scheduled for the month provided
the ball park is put into shape
He also agrees to maintain team
through the season, if our people
take the proper interest in the
matter.
Several Of our citizens have been
working on tae proposition today.
They are not willing to see Chick
asha lose out on baseball or on any
thing else. They think we should
keep up with the procession like
other towns in our class. It will
require no great outlay Of money.
There is no doubt as to securing
the grounds from the Rock Island.
All that is necessary is to enclose
them and erect seats and grand
stand. About $500 is all that will
be required. With q little help
from the Commercial Club it ought
not to be difficult to raise the de-
sired amount.

The position Of national commit
teeman in the territory is an inn
portant one. It is especially neces-
sary to have strong man for the
place during the next four years
when 50 many questions will arise,
affecting the interests of the party
and Of all the people in the terri
tory. As democrats we we want
an able general in comirend The
man selected must have the quail
ties Of leader, if the party is to be
firmly established in the territory.

a GREAT EVIL.

Verify, q great evil is abroad il
the lard It layeth waste more
gardens and stirreth up more strife
in Tie neighborhood thsn al the
other satanic influences combined.
The heart Of the hen is desper-
ateIy wicked and prone to do evil
continually Her rights and priv
ileges as an American citizen have
never been defined by law; In the
exercise Of her assumed divine
rights, she sathereth her chicks
about her and desecrateth the
neighbors gardens and flower beds
to her hearts content without the
slightest compunction. The neigh
Dor shooeth her away, but 10 she
returneth 10 work still greater de-
struction.
A subscriber to the EXPRESS
protests against allowing free
range" to chickens. He thinks an
ordinance should be passed requir-
ing them TO be kept within proper
bounds. Doubtless the old argu-
ment about personal liberty will be
invoked in behalf Of the freedom Of
motion Of the hen, but opposite to
il must be set the argument of the
rights Of personal property. Peo-
pie who don keep chickens natur-
ally think their property should be
protected from destruction.
It is noticeable that the chief
complaint is lodged against the hen.
Roosters are much more gentleman
ly and considerste in their conduct.
Whether this is due to an innate
feminine instinct to but into" the
neighbors' yards and othes affairs,
it is not necessary now to deter
mine.
The question is up to the Salons
who make our city ordinances to
take steps that will effectuaily
check the evil complained of and
thus maintain the peace and safety
Of our city.

chickasha laborers are undoubt-
edly entitled to first consideration
in the water works construction
The council wisely inserted this
provision in the contract. Mr..
Cook is, without doubt, endeavor-
ing to carry out this feature of the
contract. If he has been imposed
upon, the committee of the council
should certainly inquire into the
matter and see to. it that enr home
laborers are given the preference.
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1904-04-28

Too great care can not be given
BY the city council TO the water
works construction. The water
works committee has most i'm
portant duty to perform and its re-
sponsibiIity is very great While
there is no reason to doubt that
the contractors will endeavor TO
carry out faithfully the terms Of
the contract, prudence demands
that the city keep d watchful eye
on every thing that is done. The
city authorities will be held
accountable for every dollar <
pended under tle contract and it
behooves them to see to it that
there small be noshort-comings n
she work. The amount Of money
involved and the interests Of the
city are too great, to justify the
taking Of any chances il the mat
Ter. The committee will do wei;
to look after the matter carefully.
