OTHER TOWNS ARE At WORK
Matter Hhas Beet Taken Up
by the Commercial Club.

1t Is now up 70 the people Of Dodge
City to 60 after the reunion or to consent
to 1t going to some other town. Garden
City appreciates the benefllsto be derived
from the big annual meeting and is ready
to guarantee giving one on big scale II
she can secure 1t for that place
Garden City would be glad to have
such men as Vice President Fairbanks
and the different governors who have at
tended the reunion, on exhibition at that
town. Garden City realizes that Dodge
City has in the past years built up a
meeting Of state importance, and she is
ready now TO step In and take the benefit
Of the work that Dodge has done. No
one can blame Garden City for wanting
the reunion, and the people here cannot
blame her for trying to get 1t, as very
little interest has been shown here 60 far
In that direction.
The South western Veterans reunion is
Just at the stage now when 1t is worth
more to the town tha 1t has ever been In
the past. Most Of the reunions have
dropped out. The State reunion has been
abandoned. The Dodge City meeting is
becoming famous all over the state.
Fortunately, the matter has been taken
up by the Commercial club, and placed
in charge of com mittee of men who
thoroughly appreciate the importance of
the meeting to the town.
AT the meeting of The club Friday night
the reunion question was brought up and
committee, composed of Judge Madi-
son, DR.. Milton and j W. Sidlow, was
appointed to take chargs0f the matter.
If it is not too late, the meeting may still
be secured. Other towns have been at
work with the different vice. presidents
and may have enough pledges from them
to secure the reunion. II 1t is not located
J let, Dodge City will have the best chance
to get 1t, as she has the most convenient
place, the only big park In the district,
and knows how to handle the meeting
from past experience.
If 1t is brought here the park will have
to be drained, so there will be no posi-
bllity Of food like the one of last year.
AS soon as the matter Is settled, and In
case Dodge City gets the meeting, a COM
mittee will begin work on securing some
big men for the meeting, and this will
mean men Of national reputation.

The Commercial club, at Its meeting OF

ization and began adding to the new
membership. The officers are: A. Rus
sell, president; Fl. juneau, first vice.
president; Dr.. G. A. Milton, second vice.
president; G.. L. Wing, secretary; r. W

The committees will be made up, prob.
ably, by the next meeting night, which
will be tomorrow night.
According to the new constitution, the
membership fee will be 81 and the dues
81 for each quarter Of the year. Some Of
the committee which drew the constitu
tion favored making the membership fee
higher, 80 that the club would have more
funds to work with, but 1t was decided
after discussion to make the fee low
enough 80 that everyone would feel that
they could belong to the club without
paying more than they cared to. AT the
present rate no one need be barred. The
club wants to have the combined help Of
the town in its work. There ought to be
at least 200 members In the present Or
ganization. Those who were In the room
when the membership roll was opened
responded readily to the call. In few
moments nearly every person in the
room had signed the membership roll.
The club will begin work at once and
will 60 after results. The federation of
clubs which is being formed along the
Arkansas valley will assist each of the
clubs in securing better conditions. The
scope OF work to be undertaken will be
of as much benefit to the farmers over
the county as to the business men of the
town. Freight rates and all questions
which affect the general welfare will re-
ceive attention.
Mr.. Gluck was made chairman Of the
waterworks committee and will investi-
gate the proposed franchise, employing
legal counsel. and will keep the club
posted as to what Is doing 10 that direc-
tion, and assist the club 10 making req

tional attorney 10 settling the matter Of
