A Worthy EntG prise
Merchants and Manufactors Record
Should be Supported.

A. Owen Jennings, the publisher
Of the merchants and manufactures
record, Illustrated and descriptive
of Chickasha and surrounding
country has a proposition that
should appeal to every resident Of
the city.
The eyes Of the world are now
turned to the new state of Oklaho-
ma and the cry is everywhere, send
us literature showing what you
have, and it is just matter Of
what town can offer the best adj
vantages for the manufacture,
merchant or farmer; Chickasha
has natural advantages and all
that is necessary is to let them be
known and we will get our share
of the increase, which must come
to this new state.
Any one that has seen the illus
trations used by Mr. Jennings can
not help but see that such a book
will not only be creditable to our
city and matter Of pride to our
people but will be the best adver-
tisement possible for the city.
Contrary to the rule Of so-called
"write-ups' which are usually
COTTON out with as little expense
as possible, Mr.. Jennings takes
pride in seeing how good it can be
made and uses nothing but the
finest half-tones.
Mr., Jennings gives five hundred
copies to our commercial club and
in view Of all these facts will say
he is entitled to liberal support
from every one that has the best
interests Of Chickasha at heart.
Now is the time each one can
say will do my part and thus help
cake Chickasha what she ought
to be, The Metropolis Of the new
state of Oklahoma.

Journalists EnrOute Here
Kansas City Journals Staff in Spec
jAl Carlo Write up Chickasha


The Kansas City Journal Special
Car "Lacona" which has been on
a tour of the Twin Territories
since the twentieth of December
last, will arrive here Saturday and
arrangements will be made for a
write-up of Chickasha.
The Journal party is composed
Of eighteen persons, ,newSpapermen,
artists and photographers, and they
are preparing dignifed matter
which will give publicity to the
great resources Of the new state.
This matter will be used in the
compilation Of special "Stathood
Edition of the Kansas City pub
lication which will Approximate
I25 pages Upwards of quarter
Of million copies will be issued,
which will be widely circulated
throughout the Union.
This is an auspicious time fol
the publication Of this class Of
matter. The dawn Of statehood
finds thousands of people, pros
pective homeseekers and investors.
eagerly waiting conservative in
formation regarding the real con-
dition Of things in the new country.
Many of these persons, who are
perhaps under an erroneous i'm
preston, would become residents
of the new state if they were cor
rectly informed regarding the real
situation.
The Journal realizes fully the
Importance of the task it has
undertaken as well as the impossi-
bility of showing the advantages
of the new country without the aid
of the press. Hence, to set forth
the great natural wealth, both
mineral and agricultural and the
diversified industries Of the new
state, it has sent out at a great
expense a private Car with staff
of competent men, schooled i'll the
subtleties Of their profession, who
will reflect upon the pages of the
Journal in its mammoth State
hood Edition, the offerings Of our
country TO the man of hnsbandry
as we'll as to the man of wealth.
Consistent space also will be
given to the views and reviews Of
progressive men who are identified
with the growth and exploitation
of the community and its resources.
The purpose i'll doing this is TO
give publicity to the class Of citizen
ship down in the country to which
lit owes its present development.
In this gigantic undertaking the
Journal deserves and should re-
ceive the active cooperation Of
the people whom It is seeking to
benefit. Representatives Of the
Journal party will meet with the
Commercial Club dnring their stay
here and with the assistance of
that body, the story will be pre-
pared while the artists and photo.
graphers are engaged in the work
of picture making about the streets
for illustrative purposes:
